How is your sensitivity during sex, have you noticed much of a difference?

Hi there.

Thanks for the question and looking at the blog!

The issue of sensitivity is definitely not an easy one. I have mentioned in other posts on my blog that since being cut I have noticed there are two different and distinct sensitivities you get from your penis which I never realised before getting cut. The first is the physical stimulation from the foreskin itself, this has definitely now all but gone. There is a slight feeling of this around the scar line (where I assume the nerves that went into the foreskin now end) but the feeling is nothing compared to when I was uncut. Then there is a secondary sensitivity which comes into play during penetrative sex and masturbation, this is much more mentally stimulated and pretty much has not changed at all between being uncut and cut.

So if I were to sum up overall, stimulating my penis during foreplay is a lot less sensitive than it used to be but after that, through to orgasm there are no changes for me. I have mentioned before though that mine is an experience based purely on a cosmetic need for circumcision rather than a medical one and I am sure if someone was experiencing pain during sex and that was relieved by circumcision then their opinion could be very different to mine but there is no doubt that circumcision does remove a very sensitive part of the penis that anyone should think deeply about before having it removed!

Fascinating stuff.

I think this experience with adult circumcision is fairly accurate and a great description of why circumcision as a young man is the best way to go.

However, I’m not sure I agree with what’s been said about sensitivity at the scar line. This is something that has been said many times in many places by many people but I don’t believe it’s supported by neurophysiology. 

It is true that when a man is circumcised the nerves that used to transmit sensation from the foreskin are severed and thereafter end at the scar line. 

But after these nerves are cut by the doctor, they’re no longer functional.

While there ARE some nerves that simply have free endings in the skin, these nerves a) were meant to function that way from the beginning and b) are primarily sensitive to pain and temperature. The nerves that would have provided all the enjoyable sensations from the foreskin were dependent on sensors like Meissner corpuscles, Merkel cells, Ruffini end organs, or Pacinian corpuscles; all of which were taken away along with the rest of the foreskin. Once their terminal sensory components have been surgically removed, these nerves can no longer function.

I suspect what men, like myself, who have been circumcised as young adults feel at the scar line is actually a combination of psychosomatic effects and tension on the immediately surrounding, INTACT, sensory nerves by the inflexible fibrous tissue that makes up the scar.

The reality is that when a man lays back on the doctor’s table to be circumcised, he permanently looses the sensation associated with his foreskin. Period.

Which is exactly the point.
