Anatomy change by age

Guys: how much can you retract your foreskin- has this changed by age?

Women: the largest insertion into vagina, has this changed by age?

I‘m 34 and have a little tight fore skin when the penis is erect it can only move back to expose the glans, but when it’s soft and flaccid it goes all the way dow.

I have a fairly long foreskin. I've always been able to fully retract it; although it doesn't stay back when released. It's much easier to fully retract when erect than when flaccid, but when flaccid usually easily able to retract to fully expose glans and part of shaft (depending on how small i've become).

Oh yes, it changed a lot over time. 20 years ago, nothing was inserted … but size doesn't matter the most 😃 But let's speak about it again in 20 years.

My foreskin was particularly tight before puberty. This was duly noted by a doctor carrying out examinations when I was aged between about 7 and 10. By the time I reached 16, it was no longer such an issue, although when I retract it now, it does not retract fully without some discomfort. It did loosen with age.

I could retract my foreskin to show the entire tip (and more) for as long as I could remember, but only when soft as a kid. It would only go down to the corona if I were erect. Gradually, this loosened up but not fully until I was maybe in my early 20s and started getting more action.

I have been able to fully retract my foreskin effortlessly since age 8 or so. That hasn’t changed since.

I had a very tight foreskin when young.

When erect and uncovered, I could not pull the foreskin back up, it was that tightly taut under the coronal ridge. I'd have to wait until the erection faded, which didn't always happen after ejaculation. From time to time I really had to make an effort to get it pulled back up while my gf/wife looked on in either amazement or puzzlement. Not sure what she thought … ha ha

In any case, around my forties, I started to make a conscious and deliberate effort to stretch and widen the opening. Essentially, while by myself, I would apply any kind of cream, oil or lotion I could get my hands on, apply it liberally and then start pulling the foreskin up and down. I would also insert small objects, like two wooden popsicle sticks or small tea spoons under the foreskin, each opposed to each other and then pull the foreskin pen as far as I could, sort of like using a homemade hemostat I guess.

It was a slow process, but it did work quite well and now I can retract the foreskin in a jiffy with no discomfort and keep it retracted (with the aid of clasps and frenulum rings) for hours on end if I wish. And I often do.

Another anatomy change is due to my pneumonectomy, which caused the ribs on my right side to grow outwards a bit, causing a bit of noticeable asymmetry.

From very young (4?) to 11 or 12, my foreskin was fully and easily retractable

At age 11 or 12 I developed phimosis and my foreskin became completely unretractable

At 31 I was circumcised

In any case, around my forties, I started to make a conscious and deliberate effort to stretch and widen the opening.

Great to hear that it worked! It sounds fun to do and it's very encouraging for me as I have a similar issue with my foreskin. Now in my 30s it is retractable but also needing a good push to cover the glans again when hard and it's not very comfortable retracted as it bunches up right under the glans. I have a feeling improvement is still possible, though I find a considerable number of guys online which give up and opt for surgery.

At 12 I found my foreskin to be snug but retractable when soft, however it took some time until I stretched it step by step and saw my glans in it's entirety when erect around 15 for the first time. I basically tried to retract it gently further and further, usually in the bath, but also played with it. After that I realised also my frenulum is rather short, but I feel I am continuously progressing with stretching it, especially recently. As a side note, my foreskin is rather long, sometimes overhangs when hard too and I wonder whether shorter ones loosen up easier naturally since the opening is pushed apart by the glans continuously when erect.

I do experiment a little bit with inserting objects into my overhang, but that's perhaps for another thread.

After that I realised also my frenulum is rather short, but I feel I am continuously progressing with stretching it, especially recently.

There was a time when my foreskin was still tight, that I really considered cutting through the frenulum, giving it a quick zip with a very sharp box-cutter or something. That because it seems to be a bit short and seemed to pull the head back down when erect.

I didn't wish to discuss this with a doctor either, being much to shy about such matters I suppose. In any case I am glad I didn't ask my doctor about this. Who knows what he would recommended. And I am certainly glad I didn't try any self-surgery, however minor it may have been. I've certainly cut myself far worse (in other places) and experienced little hardship at all.

In the end, along with the foreskin opening widening, my frenulum also stretched. So that was also resolved.

But it did take a while of more or less continued effort. I didn't follow a strict regimen, that's not in my character, but it was sustained and it did give results. One aspect I should mention perhaps is this was when my wife had become ill and I had become responsible for my own sexual activities. So I had enough private time of my own to take care of the issue. Though I suppose that with an active partner, such a prolonged treatment of stretching would also have been more than fun when done together.
