Q: Circumcision At Age 16
asked by: Haku on June 25th, 2007

I am 16 years old and uncircumcised and I recently discovered that my frenulum is too short (a condition known as Frenulum Breve). I finally saw a urologist and he agreed that something needed to be done about it. He said that I need either a frenuloplasty, which would leave the foreskin intact, or a full circumcision. He asures me that a circumcision at this age is no problem, and is what he recomends. I am leaning towards getting a full circumcision since I figure if I need do something, instead of going halfway with a frenuloplasty, why not just get a full circumcision? Its also slightly a matter of preference.

Sorry for taking so long, but my actual question is is there anyone who has recently been circumcised at my age or a few years later? My doctor assures me that it is a simple procedue with at most a ten day recovery period. Is this true? Is there any long lasting pain or other problems? I am a little concerned because it would be rather late in my life. Are their any side effects or scarring? Please, would greatly appreciate a response soon. I need to make a decision relatively soon.

Oh yes, very funny you ignorant little imbecile. Considering my older brother almost died and was in the Intensive Care Unit for two weeks when he was born, he wasnt circumcized. Since he was not, neither was I. Thats why. That and the fact that the U.S. is one of the only countries in the entire world that habitually circumcizes babies. Also, besides at birth, age 15 - 25 is about the most common age to get a circumcision. Wow, you are quite the ignorant little fool. I truly pity you.
