If I had a choice, I would have picked the male surgeon anyway. After all, as a male, he truly understands the importance of what he is cutting!

i got circumcised when i was a baby... remember the screams and the pain... man it hurt like hell i remembered... mom n grandmom had to hold me still to apply the cream (what cream i dunno)

grew up without excess foreskin, so nv exp problems, so dunnid to abstain

cant img have to abstain for 1 month

its gd to have children circumcised at birth... cuz grow up can have sex all the way le... thats y certain races who do that have high birth rates, no?

at the polyclinic, i know the doc will jus see see touch touch nia ma, so hoping for a female doc ma. like u, i would prefer a male surgeon to perform the operation too.

did you all heard bout using your fore skin to made some style on it

well guys had my fore skin cut off when i was still a baby... anyway from what i heard, uncircumcised penises are generally longer ? and after circumsition, the penis becomes thicker ? not too sure if it reduces the chances of STD, but in my point of view, it increases the chances since more areas of the penis is exposed.

It actually decrease the chances though the gland has been fully exposed. According 2 reports, its becos our foreskin has a lot of tiny viens (which explains why penis w/ foreskin R more senstivitve & enjoyable sex) tat R easily tears. Tis allows HIV & other virus 2 enter our system thru the blood stream. 1 other thing is the antibodies of the white(knt rem. the exact type or clr) blood cells there is esp. weak & vulnerable 2 tis virus which means almost no def. once the virus enters!!!

Hwevr, pls do nt rush 2 do a circumcision as the benefits R still being studied so there may be other reasons 2. Oso, an uncircumcised penis k enjoy better sex due 2 higher senstitivy, provided bros solved those common retracting or 2 lng problems. So, try 2 solved them 1st b4 considering going under the knife. If really knt solved, then considerd go under the knife but if the skin k retrace really sian bei song!!!

4 more info, k lk @ wha I type in another thread, http://thesbf.shop/showpos...1&postcount=28. Another bro mentioned there uncircumcised heads R smoother (which is true as glands & maybe head 4 most ppl, is keep smooth) & gals prefered (but I nt sure as I nt a gal, he, he).

yo bro, are you doing laser circumcision?

anyone done using laser b4?
can share their experiences? can't seem to find much info here and on the web for laser circumcision.

bberry · #**145** 23-03-2007, 11:32 PM

sorry bro, yesterday not free.

went for my appt yesterday...very gd service at AH.
the doc called me in, take down whatever, drug allergy,etc...then ask me to proceed to the bed n show him. after careful examination, he asked me to pull down my pants, lie to my side with knee bend n check my posterior...donno why la. he put 1 finger in, i think la....anyway no pain or anything la.

then he told me only solution is circumcision....n go on to explain the options of GA, LA and Regional A. so op for GA la... then the risk too, like bleeding, wound tear, etc. was told normally will give 1 week of MC, and normal activity resume after 2 weeks wor. i fixed up a date...currently 27 April.

but gotta go on 17 Apr to see the Anaeteasian (lazy to check spelling..

) and Finance advisor...

the fee was $20. was told the procedure will cost a couple of hundreds.

forgot to ask about laser cut or what...maybe got chance will asked on 17/4

will keep u guys updated after 17 Apr appt. have a nice weekend to all

Noobie · #**146** 24-03-2007, 02:13 PM

thanks for sharing bro, hope you can ask about the laser cut, just trying to find out the procedure with the fastest recovery time and least risk (usually laser is supposed to be the safest?).

#**147** 25-03-2007, 12:39 AM

i suppose laser should be more safe and take a shorter time to heal.

bberry · #**148** 17-04-2007, 08:50 PM

today appt is with the Financial Counsellor. The person explain the charges etc, how much subsidy, etc. this day-surgery porcedure cost $400, with subsidy, i pay about $200. will use my medisave to pay for it.

then go see the Anethesiat (donno how to spelt la)...take blood pressure n ask questions la. the procedure will take about 15 minutes, depending on who the surgeon is...

was told to 'check in' half hour before operation, no food from midnite. was told that after GA, they will have 2 injections on the penis (exactly where donno la) to further numb it, so that after the GA effect, it helps to relief the pain.

this appt, no charge at all.

ok guys, i will be doing it this friday morning....till then..cheers!

Hey Bros, was wondering if any of you guys have experienced this before. After my circumcision, I obviously found it easy to was my penis, and I then realised I always had the white stuff along the side of the head to wash off. However, for the past 6 months, cos of work on location can't shower for 2 days etc, I found that my penis very clean even without washing, but I wash anyway cos of hygiene. Any idea about why there is no more white stuff to wash off?

lol.. that is because you hvae cut the skin away... and thats the reason why we go for the op. Cleaner is the main reason.
