This site discusses phimosis in its specific forms of phimotic ring, frenulum breve, adhesions or skinbridges. During erection these conditions inhibit the relationship between foreskin and glans. This functionally restricts the erection, and thus has an effect on the sexuality. With our culture's attitudes on health care, it would be appropriate to encourage early prevention.

BOYFRIEND WITH PHIMOSIS

Hi Robin,

I just wanted to thank you for your site. I am a 22 year
old female student and have been with my boyfriend for the
last 9 months. He has phimosis - a condition which i knew
nothing about before and still am not totally sure i know
everything about! For the first six months of our
relationship my boyfriend was too embarressed to tell me
about his condition and did everything possible to avoid
being intimate with me. Obviously this distressed me as i
didn't know what i was doing wrong and wondered why he
wouldn't even let me see him naked.
