Yup! And I highly recommend it. Just from the small gains I’ve made and the difference it makes, I’ve become pretty much completely anti-circumcision. Definitely completely for babies.
Arent irreplaceable glands removed during a circumcision? Might be able to lengthen skin to form something like foreskin but isn’t it impossible to regrow the glans?
Glans is the tip/head/non-skin end of your penis and it should not have been touched during circumcision. Maybe by mistake something happened.
But there are body tissue structures that are removed and lost forever from circumcision. Namely the “rigid band” and part or all of the “frenulum”
So a restored foreskin is not quite the same. But people who get circumcised as an adult and then later restore say that restored is about 70-80% as good. And far better than nothing!
I took the time to Google it. I was thinking of sebaceous glands which just produce skin oil. Probably more there than other places given its function but yeah I get ya.
My cut job is fine btw. No errors. Would prefer that the choice was mine. And if it were I wouldn’t have it done. So when my son was born, we didn’t do it to him.
Sorry, I read “glans” instead of “glands” - my understanding is that the foreskin is made up of inner and outter skin (the inner skin is actually mucosa, a wet tissue like the inside of your cheek). Outter skin from the start of your shaft to your circumcision scar line, then inner skin (mucosa), then your glans.
Mitosis (skin growth via tension) works on inner and outter skin, so you should end up with a normal amount of sebaceous glands from restoring. Mitosis results in new nerves, blood vessels, and I would assume new sebaceous glands (but I haven’t checked for sure).
I didn’t even know that was a thing! The foreskin thing or the tomato thing.
wait wait wait…you can restore your foreskin??

How does one go about this
