Doctor commenting on circumcision status

Not as an adult but Doctors did when I was growing up.

I think mainly because circumcision was normal and uncircumcised was not and this is why they always retracted it even if what I was in for had nothing to do with my penis. they would see it on my records or remember and ask my mother how it was down there she would say my foreskin is still tight so they would check and retract it and it always hurt.

I can only remember having two different doctors over that time. They just seem fascinated by it, maybe because they had it removed when they were young. Who knows, I just know that I hated going there. It was embarrassing and painful.

@FHT Did they make suggestions?

Only once, but brief as it was it brings back nothing but good memories. About 15 years ago when doctors still did physicals and not wellness exams like today my female pcp asked me if I was circumcised and then made a point of looking at my penis. It’s the only time a woman other than a lover ever did this to me.

Living in the U.S., most men are circumcised and I’m not. So whenever I go to the doctor and it requires me to be examined in that area, I get surprised looks all the time about my uncircumcised penis. No one says anything, but they do get surprised.

In Spain, during routine medical check-ups, the doctor only commented on my scar and that everything was going well. The term phimosis surgery is more commonly used. When I moved to the US, at my first check-up to start playing sports at 10, The doctor who examined me noticed that I was Spanish because he gave me the form that my father filled out and because he speaks Spanish.When he asked me to take my pants down for a check. I mentioned to the nurse, "Look, this boy is circumcised," and asked my dad if it had been here or in my country. And my dad answered Spain, he then asked me what I thought and if I had had any problems. I told him no, and he just told me that it's cleaner and that I'm not going to struggle. He just recommended that I use Vaseline on the glans to avoid chafing. That's what I remember

During my last physical when it came to the genital exam, once he saw my penis he asked if I was circumcised when I was a baby, which I said no I got it done when I was about 6 years old

My doctor when he checked my penis asked if I was , as have a loose cut at birth , it’s random , I said yes and soft look uncut so min he touched mine looked the way a cut should . Got a semi , he said will put in file I’m partly cut.
