What Causes Difficulty In Retracting Foreskin?

Hello Doctor,

My foreskin does not pull back completely. While having sex as well, I feel a bit of pain if I try to push too hard inside. This lets me just insert 1/3rd of my penis inside her. Can it be a problem since we are trying conceiving? I remember once my foreskin had pulled back in the act due to much pressure. At that time I did not feel pain but had to try 10-15 minutes to bring the skin back to its normal position. If its a problem, can it be corrected? Please help.

Hi!
Welcome to HCM!

This is a treatable condition..........known as PHIMOSIS

Phimosis is a condition where the foreskin is too tight to be pulled back over the head of the penis (glans).
Due to incomplete penetration of your part and inadequate ejaculation the chances of fertilization of the ovum may be reduced.
The following general measures can be useful like:
Forcible retraction of the foreskin should be avoided.
Using a condom during sexual intercourse may make the penis more comfortable.
If the above measures fail then you will you to consult your GP/urologist for the surgical correction of the tight foreskin of your penis.

Hope it should not be a matter of concern for you.
Take Care!
Regards!
