Uncircumcised guys tell us if your doctor retracts the foreskin

I 'love' it when the Dr asks, "does your foreskin retract?" before performing the procedure of pulling it right back (this is in play exams)

The elasticity of the frenulum is monitored

At the end, the foreskin is released and the way it returns to cover the glans is observed. If it remains in place we pull it forward over the head.

Your response is helpful to me as an examiner. I would like to know what variations you have seen in the elasticities among different frenula (is this the correct plural?). I have seen photos of overly short or restrictive frenula but I would not categorize this as "elasticity" variation.

I have not released the foreskin and observed how it returns to cover the glans. Are there specific conclusions you draw if the foreskin does not slide back over the glans without your having to pull it back down into position?

Quote:Each time I had an medical exam at school and at my army medical, the doctor retracted my foreskin as far as it would go.

In my case, it was never done as far as possible, but just halfway; depends so even in the same country also on the doc I guess

My pediatrician Always pulled back my foreskin to check if i had phimosis. I hurted me

All of my doctors either my pediatrician or GP always retract my foreskin plus ask if I have any problems. I’ve never retracted my foreskin. By retracting my foreskin themselves any tightness could be detected. Also, once retracted they examined my glans, meatus, etc. then released it to see if my foreskin would automatically return to its nature position. If it didn’t they would manually slide it back to cover the glans.

The only exception, the school doctor that performed high school physicals was rougher than other when it came to retracting my foreskin.

In the UK we don't usually have yearly physicals so personally I've not had my foreskin retracted too often. I guess the last time was at high school when I had to retract it during a physical. The doctor was an older female and it was quite humiliating. She felt around the shaft and touched around the head. I was more anxious about it becoming erect.

My doctor tells me he is about to retract it and he does it himself.

The doctor always retracted it to examine the foreskin itself and the glans, except maybe once or twice when my genitals were examined for some concerns that didn't envolved my penis.

And honestly this used to be embarrassing during my pediatrician years, now I'm quite ok with it.

May I ask those who reported having their foreskin retracted during physicals:

- did you have to retract it yourself, or did the doctor do it?

- was it just about retracting it gently or was there any "forced" attempt to retract it further when it resisted, if it resisted?

The doctor did it.

Since I never had any problem with my foreskin, like phimosis or so, it was gently retracted as far as it could go.

Hi Pecan nutjob

did you have to retract it yourself, or did the doctor do it?

- was it just about retracting it gently or was there any "forced" attempt to retract it further when it resisted, if it resisted?

1.). did you have to retract it yourself, or did the doctor do it?

Never. My doctors have always retracted my foreskin. Usually, after lower my underwear I was instructed to me keep my arms and hands at my side. Then asked if there are any issues such as tightness. Then processed to fully retract my foreskin, palpate the shaft, exam the glans, meatus and urethra opening. After releasing my foreskin they observed if it automatically returns to the natural position.

2). - was it just about retracting it gently or was there any "forced" attempt to retract it further when it resisted, if it resisted.

I would say, most were gentle or very careful while in the process of retracting my foreskin. The only exception- one of two doctors that conducted the yearly sports physical in high school. Occasionally he’d ask about my foreskin but usually he order of “drop your boxers“. Then he’d literally grab your penis and just shove the foreskin all the back and then released. Another reason I never looked forward to this physicals his “cold wet hands.” Immediately after wishing his hands - the feeling of cold hands on your dick, balls and hernia exam. He was just as rough with the hernia exam as my foreskin.

Do you have any idea why the doctor would release the foreskin and watch to see if it returned to cover the head rather than just replace it himself? Did your foreskin return to the natural position or did he have to replace it?

Exam doc: There is a condition known as paraphimosis where the foreskin cannot go back to the original position.

I assume the doctor wanted to observe my foreskin return to its natural position. On occasion, my foreskin will stop at ring those times I will have to manually put it down covering the glans. I’ve had some doctors that will retract and then manually return it back. Others will see if it will automatically cover the head without any assistance.

This particular time I believe it returned back to its normal position.

The doctor always retracted my foreskin

When I had issues with my foreskin being too tight, the doctor would always attempt it firmly but gently. She would never force it, but always seemed to test the limit of how far it would stretch.

My Dr would always pull it back to where she could see all of the head and she rolled the foreskin over the head to retract it instead of sliding it like when you masturbate. I used to be embarrassed about being uncut, and having guys see it during gym class. Now I have no shame about my body and it's great to have an intact penis.

I am now circumcised but years ago every doctor up until 19 or 20 retracted it themselves if they did a genital exam. After that some did and some asked me to do it myself. I have seen both male and female doctors

Did one of the doctors suggest circumcision?

No I had a medical problem and had to get it done.

GregB: Which problem ?

The doctor retracts it, if it’s resistant, he doesn’t force it, but he’s firm.

I woke up with phimosis and had to get it done. Basically a fancy name to say foreskin won’t retract.

I woke up with phimosis and had to get it done.

Wow, it just happened suddenly?

Yes, she does.

Always done when young. The doctor pulled forward the foreskin then retracted it slowly then forcing it to uncover the sulcus.

When my phimosis issue was resolved and he stopped to use instruments, he always examinated both the stretched length and if returned spontaneously covering the entire glans or stay retracted, mine

returned covering the glans. He suggested circumcision or further distentions therapy for those examination signs, it was very embarassing.

I was circumcised age 6, at the examinations prior to and consultation for, the doctor retracted the foreskin,

it is where my medfet began, and all these years later led me to zity

It was always retracted by the doc. I get very hard.

Having moved to the EU and finding myself with mostly uncircumcised guys, I cannot stress how important it is for a dr to retract the foreskin and examine closely the glans and meatus of his penis. Quite often hygiene is an issue (as shocking as that seems) and some patients may exhibits signs of phimosis. Please be aware that retracting the foreskin (in addition to being painful) can be a source of humiliation and embarrassment to your male patient - so do so with care and do it slowly - enjoy your priviledge.

I have never had my foreskin pulled back with medicals, maybe they could see it is well taken care of. But my balls were checked regularly.

Would you please explain why foreskin retraction is humiliating and embarrassing?
