Yeah Im 15 and a half and Ive had these for almost two years now. They only appear the bottom of my Penis and seem to form a strait line from my scrotom to my head. I was just wondering if my condition is going to progress any more (and cover my entire penis :-( ) I was also wondering what the best treatment for this condition is. I know there is no cure, but Ive read a little about creams and CO2 Lasers and I just want to hear about them from somebody who has used them. Thanks.
It's encouraging to see others with the same problem.
I'm going to try the Tretinoin Gel.

Yo, I'm 18, turning 19 in April and i've had these for like 4 years now... and it's not really that hard to just tell a girl right before ur about to do the dirty. If it's not a 1 night stand, and she's ur girlfriend or somethin-she'll understand.
hell pull up this website or somethin.
Lots of girls who want to "stay" with you will prolly just make you go to some doctor or somethin to get it checked and as long as u show her a clean bill of health-ta daaa. Instant booty.
have fun and use protection.

19, going on 20. I've had these for as long as I can remember paying any sort of attention to my penis. Someone earlier mentioned that after giving up caffeine he noticed an improvement. This could have something to do with it, seeing as how I LIVED off of Coke, Pepsi and any kind of sugary caffeinated drink I could find as a kid. I suppose I noticed these when I was about 12, back when I caffeine consumption was really getting at its worst. I even went as far as to build a coke-can tower consisting of nearly 400 coke cans in my bedroom.
ANYWAYS - A healthy suggestion would be to cut the caffeine out of your diet, it'll do you lots of good overall anyways.
P.S.: They DO become less apparent in the Winter when my skin is dryer, much like someone else mentioned. Though when its hot and humid outside and my genitals tend to generate a considerable amount of sweat, they become much more visible. Hope this helps!

I just noticed these on my upper lip ( face hehe) and found out what they were. They are tiny, just that I can feel them a little bit. When I read all these posts, I just really wanted to add something...if you guys make a big deal and start trying to explain them you may freak your potential GF out!!! Why say anything at all? About 90% of guys have them, so if she is a virgin, then she doesnt know any better, and if she isnt, she will have seen them before anyway. If she does say anything, why not just say they are hair follicles, and thats just the way they look? Act like its no big deal. Because it isnt. I have had BF's with average size Fordyce spots, as well as the odd one with very enlarged ones. And its no big deal, I promise. And you know what? Women get them too. If they are large and sore, they may have got infected. Then they may blled. Treat it as you would a zit. If you are very careful, you can squeeze, but you need to make sure your hands, tissue etc are CLEAN!!! or you will make it worse. Incidentally, something that is documented as helping slightly is salycic acid, which sounds scary, but is in most pimple creams and washes. If you are careful, a pimple wash may help as it helps to close your pores down, and so stopping anything going in to the follicles and making them bigger. Its very important you keep clean, especially if you sweat a lot. A splash of cold water after you wash is very good at helping to tone your skin, and helps close your pores/follicles. They are unlikely to ever go away completely, but you can get them manageable. And guys...stop worrying!!!Trust me, us women are so busy hoping you don't think we are fat/big nosed/small chested, we are not concerned with tiny bumps.
Ah, I was wondering if there was a cure for this, and then I found this place. Glad that there's a chance that they'll go away. I knew what they were, and I wasn't too scared about them, they're just hella annoying, and a hindrance to my self esteem.
I am a 17 year old male and after a lot of research on the net i know that I have fordcye spots on my penis, shaft and scrotum since i was about 14. I only really noticed there appearence when a girl first noticed them and i was embaressed as hell. Since then I have been so scared of physical contact with girls because of these damn things. They control the one facet of that counts, sex! I've read hundreds of these comment sites and i get answers like the spots go away; there sometimes is treatments; and you should learn to live with these things. For me, mine arent going away, so i finally got up the courage to tell my parents and get an appointment with a doctor. But will that all be for nothing? Will he tell me to live with these horrible things? If anyone knows any alternate solutions please help me!!

legend man (y) i wonder if wanking alot causes them to worsen?
im 13 and ive had these for about a couple months now and i just recently realized them if you have them dont worry about it.. studys show that 70 to 80% of people will get them and you really shouldnt waste your time or money trying to get rid of them because they are in no way harmful to you or others so just be happy that its not harmful and the best way to get rid of them is to just drink lots of water , have a ballanced diet and wash frequently with gentle natural soap :-D
