Hi guys, im guessing nobody will remember me, a long time ago i was in the situation, like many, that due to lack of education i was unaware of the fact the foreskin needed to be retracted. I posted on these forums seeking help and i revieced this, even when i was "nagging" for more information. Before starting my retraction i promised myself to help those in my situation needing information...Now with a successful retraction proceess over that is what i am going to do, even though this is long over due. Before i give information of what i done to go from being unable to see my penis head through the small hole in my foreskin to being fully retratable in 2 months, would you please remember these points when feeling low.Firstly, Circumsizion is not the answer guys, in most cases stretching will be able to fix your problem, even if you see little results.Secondly, Stick with it!!! Results do not happen over nightThirdly, Take it all slow and if worried seek adviceLastly, Good luck and well done to you for taking the first step.Ok so first of all, find a quiet place where you can have a 10-15 minute of stretching the foreskin, it also helps to have a warm bath before you start as this does loosen the foreskin, or alternatievly do this in the bath.To start with, Stretch your foreskin by holding either side ad simplily pulling out, will post up the pic when i find itYou should be opening this as far as you possibly can before it gets tp painful, i find holding this for as long as possible, 3-4 minutes is good.Doing this for 15 minutes everyday, for 2 weeks should really start opening up your foreskin, I also used to pull back my foreskin after each week to see how far my foreskin could go down, this would then be easier for me to see progress.You should idealy be carrying this on for as long as it takes untill u can fit a finger in ur fireskin, and then opening it up more that way, once you can fit two fingers in you can then start seeing results a lot quicker (i found). This is because you can simpiling put two fingers inside the hole, and push out.Still keep pulling your foreskin down as much as possible and keeping this each week.If you carry on putting as many fingers in your foreskin hole for 2 months and pulling out you should be well on your way.Obvsouily everybody is diffrent, you could still be gripping both sides of foreskin hole, at the top, and pulling out for 3 months before you can put a finger inside, that is fine, shows you are doing this correctly.Im sorry if this hsnt made sense to many of you but this is my views on how i good foreskin retraction can be done with no medicines or "tools". If you have any questios drop a reply and Myself, or others will help you.Also if you start, i beg you do carry on as stopping for a week will jst lose your progess. TIP:: When first starting stretchning, i would plan my days and when i would do it, E.G Sitting and watching yourself would bore me, so i would put a film on each day and jst stretch while watching this, this means you can stretch for say 30 minutes, have a rest and maybe carry on...I would appraichate it if this can be made a sticky, or even reffered to as i would of found a thread like this very helpful when starting stretching.Thanks Guys and Good luckDont be afraid to ask!Thekidbilly

Help for all people retracting

1 What are the advantages of having a severly loose foreskin?2 Should this be done well the penis is erect or flacid?
-
Hi, In answer to your question,
1 - Im not talking about serverly loose so that it retratcs without pulling it back when flacid, but in order to have sensations while having sexual intercourse your foreskin should be moving back behind the head. But more importantly this is essentail for cleaning, pull back the foreskin and clean the head
2 - These should be done while flaccid, although if your read some threads i belive there is one that gives a technique how to while erect
-
Ok tyvm, I'll try it out.

Thanks for your help buddy!.. im now 19 and have started doing this stretching as i only recently have found out that it is required. as funny as it sounds, i had no idea before now, it was starting to worry me.However i have some slight trouble understanding the stretching instructions. im afraid that i might be doing it wrong.So when u say that u have to "pull out" "both sides" of the foreskin, what exactly do you mean?I started by just holding the loose end at the top (tip) of skin, where the hole is, and actually pulling it upwards away from the penis, kind of like trying to pull a sock off... is that right?.. beacause it hurts a litle wen i do that. I also have tried placing a finger slighty in the hole, and holding the other side with my thumb, so like pinching it, and the other side with the other hand and then pulling them apart to extend the circles width or radius... is that also correct?some help here would be greatly appreciated.
-
Is there another place to do this? Baths use lots of water and time :/
-
Hi moogle, well done to you for streching firsty, and for takng the first steps!!What you are doing by pulling the foreskin away is good, as this is stretching the frenulum. Also you are doing the foreskin streching correctly. Pulling both sides away at the tip of your foreskin to make the same bigger is the way to go!! Good luck buddy and be sure to keep us updated!!
-
Derk, doing it in the bath is just a suggestion to make it easier for yourself, but u can do it like i did, in bed watching t.v! something to take my mind off it!
-
Thanks for your advice. Good to know I'm doing this the right way.I might add that I was having a bit of an akward conversation last night with one of my friends, and he told me that when he was a little boy his mom would help him with pulling down the foreskin until he was old enough to do it himself, perhaps on the shower or bath time, and he told me ever since then he had no problems retracting.I'm wandering, will it take longer for guys at my age to make the skin looser?.. I mean this guy has been doing it since very young so its naturally elastic by now and hes about 21, but I on the other hand have just started this practice.Also sometimes when i pull down for stretching, my skin gets a bit dry and the foreskin seems to feel tigher and more glued to the head. Is that normal?
-
Yes very normal.In answer to your question will it take longer, well yes it will im afriad, you need to stay keep working at it untill you are happy with the results and dont get lazy with it! He has been retracting everyday of his life to pee and clean, you are jst startiung!!Do you mind me asking how long you have been stretching and how far can u pull down your foreskin?
-
After this post it would have been about 3 days of stretching, i know its only starting.I can pull it about 1/4 of the way down, which is enough to see the hole and a bit more surface of the head.. I can probably go a bit further without pain but with a tight feeling and stretchiness.Further than that and it will hurt.
-
Don't rush anything. It can take a few months.
-
What sdp said is very true, ignore how long people say they have taken to retract, and concentrate on doing your strecthing proprerly! Making stretching a part of your everyday life routine will make it seemingly fly by and you will be able to fully retract before you know it. Any more questions dont hesitate ask
-
thanks guys for all your advice.i was just curious about one more thing, i had asked you earlier and you had said it was normal.well just to get into a litle more detail if you dont mind, basically when i try the stretching while in the shower or bath it seems fairly easy, and sometimes immediately after masturbation, it might have something to do with the semen?.. im not sure.However when i try to sometimes stretch at random, or it may be while i go for a pee, i find that my skin has gone back to a dry and less flexible state which makes it a bit tougher to slide and starts to feel tighter sooner with more grip.Is this normal and does it mean that each time i have to retract it has to be wet or moist? And will this be a problem during sex? (considering it won't be in the bath tub lol) thanks again guys
-
Water and heat make skin more pliable.Use a washcloth soaked in hot water, wring it out and wrap your panis for a while if you do not want to do it in a shower.
-
im sure someone will correct me on this if im wrong but i belive that you do not have to be moist wen having sex as your foreskin will automattically retrtact as the streching has made it loose enough to be able to
-
after stretching, is it possible that it will not automatically retract when erect, but still be able to if you pull it?it really does seem like this is working, i can already pull it half way before it starts to get tight, but somehow it seems unlikely that it will automatically retract when erect, even if i finish the stretching process.. i would still have to pull it back right?.. otherwise wouldn't that be too loose?
-
I can't speak for everyone, but I will venture to say that many/most guys foreskins do not "automatically" retract with an erection.
-
wow, ok so maybe i might be litle excited right now, but i gues i have to tell someone lol.ok so there i was in the shower, practising my retraction, the stretching thing happenin, all is cool. i then managed to pull back the skin about 3/4 of the way down. i was starting to think "wow, i can almost see the whole head".. strange though i didnt feel the stretch that tight so i thaught, "hey, may as well pull it down a lil further".. sudenly it just sort of clicked back, and kinda locked itself behind the head. i was like "holy cow!" coz its only been like 2 weeks now..well i havent tried erect, this was only while flacid.. but hopefuly this will work soon for both stages. anyways, i noticed that the skin sort of gets stuck behind the head and i have to work it down bak to cover it.. is that normal?.. also there was like some white stuff behind there, is that suposed to be there, coz it looks kind of gunky and disgusting,, thers not that much though, just a small layer.thanks again guys
-
That's progress however a warning. If it is pretty tight and gets stuck when flaccid, you have to be careful not to get an erection. If you get an erection with the slin behind the head, it can get really stuck and can be dangerous. If you can't get it back over the head during an erection, blood gets trapped in teh head and it won't go down. Cases like this are emergencies and you need to go to the hospital to "deflate" your penis. Damage can occur if th eerection doesn't go down within about 4 hours. Anyways, if this happens, squeeze the head tight to squish it down and then try to scoot the skin back over.The white gunk is smegma. Yes it's normal and is nasty if you don't clean. That's the goal. To clean every day. Keep up the stretching. Also try pulling back, but not all the way yet, when you have an erection. The galns can help spread the opening
