I am 13 years old and I have been masterbating for about a year now and now signs of puberty. I have small blond pubes but my foreskin is very tight is this normal?

Hi Guest,

It is NORMAL for your foreskin to not retract until around age 16 or so.

You can help it.  Get an erection and pull down on the shaft skin so that the glans spreads the opening OR use your fingers.  It may help to do this in the shower as the water will help soften the skin.

The more you do it the sooner you'll be able to pull it back easily.  You will find the glans very sensitive - but you'll get used to it soon.

Hope it helps.
