i think i have these as well. it looks almost exactly like the picture but i dont have so many. ive been thinking i had an std for like 3 years now despite being a virgin and like the other guy said its stopped me from advancing on girls. ive been to afraid to even look up what is was on the internet until now and it didnt fit under any std and one site had a link to conditions commonly confused for stds and this seems to be it. im sssssssssssssoooooooooooooooooooooo. glad i found this. im gonna check with my doc about it, and hopefully this ends up being it. this is a huge wait off my shoulders i thought for sure i had herpes or genital warts and tat i was gonna be stuck a virgin forever and never be able to have kids. i was seriously starting to get depressed. im so happy i found this. btw, what finally gave me the balls to check if it was an std is that prom is coming up, thank god i found this.
i fit the symptoms directly and would like to know if this also causes like an oily build up on some pubic hair? it looks like a little coating over some random hairs. is this normal or could it be something else.
I'm nearly 25 now and was sexualy active with once girl from the age 15-17 / at about the age 19 these came in graet numbers and was always worried. Though I had an STD! Then when i went to enlist into the military that looked at my genitals and wouldnt say much. Was rather worried. Anyways my diet while in boot camp changed and most of them went away.
However after I got out of the military I gained about 40 pounds and I produce lots of oil down there. So they hav become and came bace in an irritating number. Now though that I'm actualy starting to watch what i eat again they are shrinking and becoming less prominant.
What i wanted to say is from about the age 17-23ish I though I had something wrong, i refused to have sex and even left my fiance for I though I was going to give her something. Thank god I can move on now even though I lost the one who I love :cry:

Awesome post. Very helpful. I agree on the amount of frustration they cause.
Sex lives are back to normal :-D ;-)

haha i think their cute.

so fordyce spots ehhh.. now i know at the good old age of 21. ive had them motherfuckers since i was 14 and it freaked me out. i thought i had some disease and then along with that i had an ingunial hernia which is your intestine in your ball sacks. i thought i had a tumor for a while and it looked like i had 3 balls. i was freaked out by my white head like covered penis with 3 balls. on top of that im asian and thought i had a small penis due to stereotypes which were introduced to me in middle school. not cool... but now, im hernia free from surgery and i realize them spots are nothing to worry about and i realized i have an average sized penis. however all this has led to me be extremely reserved with the ladies.
Thats a load of my mind. I'm still going to go to the doctor to check things out, but it looks just like that picture on wiki, just not nearly as bad. Woo you guys are awesome! Thank you!
I have these too, on the underside of my shaft and quite prominent ones on my on the underside of my foreskin. I was terrified of them as a teenager (I'm 24 now) and missed out on quite a bit of action due to the fear of what a girl might think if she saw them.
I was quite lucky in some ways insofar as I decided to just go for it and risk being embarrassed if a girl said anything. In the past eight years I have had around twenty partners in total and not one, to date, has mentioned them. (I did speak about them with one partner, but it was me who raised the issue to find out if she was bothered; she wasn't.)
I still worry a little these days - it shoots though my mind the first time I am about to get intimate with a new person, I guess that is just one of those things that we all worry about, but I do know that it isn't something to fear any more.
The danger here is that they can ruin your life. Even in my case, where I have been sexually active, I have spent way too much of my life worrying about them (Especially in my early to mid teens when I felt I would be a virgin forever etc). My message to anyone else out there who has these is really do not worry - other people are almost never so critical of your body as you are yourself - if you are really worried you can go and see your Doctor, but the best course of action is to learn to be happy with yourself as you are.

Yeh I've had the same thing now since I was like 13, currently 17. Interesting to see how many people have spent years worried sick about this thing - I know I did, close to suicide and too scared to see a doctor. I eventually went to a doctor (most awkward thing I've ever done) and only then was I diagnosed. It leads to some pretty awkward moments and long periods of depressing loneliness but at least it ain't an STD and there's no pain. Still sucks ass.
Currently searching for away to reduce them or nuke them totally.
Isn't it funny how so many people couldn't get a diagnosis for years and got so depressed? Why is it so hard to find information on this c**p and how come those people that come to your school saying, "don't have sex or you'll die" haven't ever mentioned this.

mate theres nothing to worry about...i've always had them and I've always presumed them to be normal. But then one day with my girlfriend, we were in bed and she was playing down there..and she noticed them and was like "whats that? ive never seen that before?" ...n i was like "they have been there all my life, its just something to do with my skin"...n she was cool with it :-D....its hardly noticeable really, the only reason she saw it was because she had it in her hand and was messing around with it...and when she saw hem and i told her, she was cool with it - if you got yourself a woman that loves you it dont matter! and dont let it hold you back from getting one! - its not contagious, not deadly and isn't exactly unpopular! - i had no idea people took this so serious until i was browsing around the internet to help my mate diagnose himself - in a way im releaved to know im not alone - but its never bothered me and shouldnt bother you!
I also have these tiny bumps on the head of my penis, my nipples, and upper lips. There are so many of them on my lips, causing my lips look white and strange. I saw two doctors but none of them had any ideas. I am glad I see this post on the internet. At least these things are harmless. But it would still be best if there is a way to get rid of them.
THANK YOU SO MUCH
My boyfriend has those little bumps and i was like WTF but i still did stuff with him because I thought he would tell me so im like freaking out. But this helped.. at least i know it wasnt freakin herpes because it scared me so much. the pictures i looked at looked nothing like what he had so i feel soooo much better. thank you so much

wow glad thats sorted
I am 39 years old and have had this same concern for MANY years. I have been with many women over the years and not one has ever shown an iota of concern over my "issue". All the while, it makes me quite self conscience, even still. I was even married for 12 years and "it" never came up as an issue. Maybe we are really overly cosmetically concerned these days.
I have been to a couple of different doctors on this issue. I will never forget when one of them told me that chicks would actually dig it. He actually wanted to know why in the world I wanted to get rid of them. He felt that plenty of girls would enjoy the added stimulation that the "bumps" would cause. Think about it. How often do you see "bumps" on a wonam's sexual toy?
I agree with others who have posted here. Think positively!
