Question for anyone who may know

AnitaRaylor

Hello guys, I’ve been in contact with a urologist regarding a short/tight frenulum. We discussed one treatment that involves making a small cut and basically lengthening it. I’m wondering if there’s anyone who has went through with this procedure and if it really does help? I’m nervous about jumping into something that may not workout the way I’d hope.

AnitaRaylor I don’t know of anyone who has had this happen but I know of those who had frenulum removal. I’ve thought about it countless times but be aware that some of these treatments can lead you to the end goal whether you want it or not. I don’t know where you live but in the US the cost of these things falls on you which is one thing but it’s another thing to end up needing a partial or full circumcision because the procedure you just had didn’t do the trick. Maybe with your frenulum length you may end up only needing to go back and get it removed and it does the trick. But these are the rare cases in my opinion. The more you look into it the more you realize why guys who don’t even want to be circumcised end up getting circumcised. But at the very least you can always choose a very loose one that still covers some of the head when flaccid. I only want to go in and have one thing done one time. Good luck!

I think that if you’re unsure about something where you don’t have the knowledge/expertise yourself to make an informed decision, it’s always a good idea to seek a second independent expert opinion (ie not from a urologist working at the same clinic/practice).
