If you find that leaving it out in your underwear is still too sensitive then shake talcum powder over it. This leaves a fine layer over the top and makes it easier to bear when it is out in the open.

I've actually noticed that if I rub the head of my penis, it causes me to have the urge to urinate, and in fact, I can urinate on command by doing that as long as there is something in my bladder.

Just wanted to come in on this one here.

If your foreskin is at all tight, I would not recommend leaving it 'pulled back'. This could lead to paraphimosis and all which that entails.


A good way I found to desensitise the glans is to handle it under water, for example in the bath. The feeling of the warm water comfuses the nerve endings and makes that sensation less acute. Just grip the glans between your thumb and index finger and when the feeling subsides move to a different area. Also, when you can, get used to holding your penis by the glans when taking a pee.

My head was sensitive, I say was because it only happened for about a 6 hours period. The sensitivity was so intense that i couldnt sleep and I was on the edge of crying. I just started using sertraline (zoloft) tablets for depression issues. Could it have possibly come from this? It has only happened once and that was after I started taking the meds.

I have the same problem, except I'm 24 and have been circumcised since i was a baby. It's especially sensitive during and immediately after orgasm.

My symptoms are the same. I went to an urologist who instructed me on doing all things you guys mentioned here: touching and stretching the foreskin in order to stimulate the area. I really haven't tried it yet, but knowing so many people did and it really worked makes me feel better and more confident.
I also feel really uncomfortable when I know my girlfriend is gonna touch the gland. It´s so bad, many times I can't get it hard again. My girlfriend is virgin, which makes it even more difficult. Many times she thinks I don't like her or her body because of that. But as someone above just mentioned, it's all about the sensitivity and slight pain it causes by touching or rubbing.

I'll follow the doctor's advices as well as yours, guys, in the hopes it'll help me solve this problem... and save my relationship.

Thanks for all and keep posting.

hi guys just wanted to say that my symptoms are just the same , my penis has been very sensitive all my life. At first my foreskin was to tight to pull back but after a week or so of streatching i can now pull the forskin back over the head the only problem is that the penis head is to painful to touch, i can touch it now though so heres some advice...first of all remember your not the only one with this..most boys and men will have these problems also take it one day at a time, when your in the bath slowly and gently touch the head of your penis you can also do this with a cup of warm water just put your finger in the cup then touch your penis gently...i know that it huts because it hurt me but after 2-3 days of this trust me you will feel a big difference. Also ive relised that when my penis head is errect i can touch it and it doesnt hurt which can help. When your penis is less sensitive start leaving it in your underwear ,talcum powder does help after a few days you will feel a massive difference. My penis is still a bit sensitive but i can touch it and have it unprotected in my pants without any pain and i only started to desensitive my penis head 2 weeks ago just keep at it and it will get better.

Just pullback & gently massage with Olive oil for about 6 months.

6 months thats the point. It takes too long to cure without damaging.

Finally i find a bloody page full of other poor fella's.... haha, seriously, i've had a tight foreskin for years, and the head of my penis is ultra sensitive. After a while it sort of became a psychological problem too. I'm a bit of a loner, i mean i have lots of friends but i'm a loner when it comes to relationships, due to many factors i've been single for a long time and i never really cared, i'm still a virgin and that never really bothered me as i was used to it and i knew i had a tight foreskin and a sensitive head, so i assumed that sex would hurt like hell anyway so whats the use..... Then i met this amazing girl, seriously, she beautiful, and for some crazy arsed reason she fell in love with me. Now what the f**k do i do? I've been reading through these comments and am thrilled that i'm not alone, but i don't want to be circumsized and those streching exercises would be great if my gland wasn't so bloody sensitive. Sadly us fellas are usually left out of proper sex education and penis health care, for some moronic reason we aren't taught it whilst growing up, so i nevr knew the importance of having a loose foreskin, i never tried to pull it back much and now i'm here in my middle twenties with a real sexual dillemma... When i masturbate its fine, i can just carry on regardless since i don't have to actually enter my hand like a vagina, haha, but i fear that upon having sex with this girl (who, being very tight makes it even more of a challnege) that its going to hurt like f**k (no pun intended). I've started to pull my foreskin back whilst showering as sadly, i don't have a bath, it hurts to run the shower over it but i try and go for as long as i can. The problem is getting it back whilst erect as its pretty tight and feels like its going to tear, i'm going to gove those stretching exercises a go starting tomorrow. Now the probem of it being extremely sensitive, when i'm not in the shower and my penis is flacid (not erect) its really very dry and my fingers or any manner of cloth or fabric tend to stick to it, damn, even the air seems to hurt my poor gland. Touching it in the shower is one thing, but touching it while my gland is dry is another thing entirely..... I'm absolutey bloody gutted, i'm getting to the point where even though i love this girl, i feel like i want to call things off because this is such a dillemma that i really don't see how i can have any type of sex ever. Circumcision seems fruitless as my gland is too sensitive to be exposed and to be honest, i don't want to go through the bloody hassle and pain of having my foreskin cut off. So i guess i'll stop rambling and just ask, has anyone actually gotten over their tight penis/sensitive gland issues completely without the need for knife weilding doctors?

Have no fear, there are many of us who had to overcome the same problems.
Egads, don't even think of getting it cut off. A working foreskin is one of the best pleasures you can have, for sex or masturbation.

After the unkindest cut of all, you will not only have the pain of the cut but your super sensitive glans is suddenly and permanently exposed. Doctors who cut off foreskins never seem to mention the part about your sensitive glans afterward. Maybe because they must be masochists to begin with. They probably enjoy the thought of your glans suffering at their doing.

My foreskin had always been pulled back for cleaning from the time I was born so it went behind the head easily. When I got to my teen years and my erections became larger, the tip was too tight if it happened to get caught behind the glans as an erection came on. To relieve that I stretched it by inserting two fingers in the tip and stretching it wider while I was in the shower. Stretch it until it hurts a little and hold it as long as you can. This probably will cause stretch marks that are a little sore, especially when urine gets on them, but it's not really bad. It took several months to stretch it enough.

My frenulum wasn't a problem until I got married and began having sex every day. It tore and then the ends healed back together so it was still too short. The next time it tore I wrapped it with toilet paper to keep the ends from healing back together and it was a little longer. It tore a few more times but eventually it was long enough to allow my foreskin to retract all the way back. At that point the tip was able to roll all the way down the shaft nearly to my abdomen. It is truly a joy to have a foreskin that rolls all the way back there easily and comfortably, so what little pain was involved was definitely worth it. Mine tore naturally during sex but you can have a doctor cut it after numbing it if that's the problem. Just make sure he cuts it so it will no longer interfere with your foreskin retracting all the way. I have read about guys who had that done and it was still too short. I can't see having to go back and do it again. Make sure they get it RIGHT the first time.

Eventually I got tired of the glans being so sensitive and I decided to desensitize it. When I was a kid I had several friends with whom I masturbated who were circumcised. I was surprised to find their glans was no more sensitive than my finger tips. I surmised that was because it had always been getting rubbed by whatever came near it so all I should need to do was make mine get used to being touched. I reasoned that since it was sticky, that caused more irritation, so I began by cleaning it so it would dry completely and not be sticky when I touched it. I did that by pulling my foreskin all the way back and cleaning the glans and inner foreskin with cotton balls that were soaked in rubbing alcohol. The alcohol feels cold at first then it tingles and feels hot. After the alcohol dried the skin was no longer sticky and my now super clean fingers could rub it gently to work on the desensitization. When you've had enough, just put it back inside it's protective covering and come back to the job another day. Between the foreskin being pulled back and the tingly feeling and touching it I would get pretty turned on so it resulted in a lot of masturbation and I worked on desensitizing it often.

I suppose because of the method I used to desensitize it, since then I have always masturbated by dry rubbing it with my foreskin pulled all the way back. I find I like that much better than rolling the foreskin up and down. Also, having a foreskin that rolls all the way back comfortably is great during intercourse.

Have fun, I did.

Hi Liverpool Lad,



Yes, lots of guys have come through this without needing 'the knife' :) And I fully back up njoynlife that you really don't want to be having a circumcision for this.



I usually recommend for an ultra sensitive head to:







I know you don't have a bath, but I found this worked really well. Maybe you could improvise with a washing up bowl or something. But spraying it with the shower will also help, just maybe a little more painful.







On a side note, I completely agree with you that the sex education here needs sorting out. We get people on here enquiring what a foreskin is :o , never mind knowing how they should look after it. It all just seems to concentrate on pregnancy and periods.







Hope we've helped a little any more questions let us know :)

Nothing wrong with finding out, its your body. But if it won't go back its not worth starting any stretching exercises yet, there's plenty of time for your penis to develop fully. Also, when pulling back be careful that the foreskin doesn't get trapped behing the glans if its too tight. If you feel theres any chance of this happening, its not worth continuing.
