I have an erection and the foreskin can be retracted to reveal the soft glans.

Patient's question:

Patient Gender: Female
Patient Age: 31
After an erection, my foreskin can be retracted to reveal the glans, which then becomes soft and wraps around the glans. What type of condition does this belong to?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, your symptoms are classified as phimosis, where the foreskin completely covers the glans, and the glans cannot be exposed at any time. If phimosis can be regularly cleaned and the foreskin cavity kept clean, it may not require treatment. However, if there are recurrent infections, circumcision may be performed. On the other hand, paraphimosis requires surgical treatment. Phimosis and paraphimosis can lead to the following adverse effects: premature ejaculation, anejaculation, impaired urination function, easy occurrence of paraphimosis, impaired normal development of the glans, and the induction of balanoposthitis, among other male health issues. Foreskin problems are a major disease for men.
