Men health?

my bf is uncircumcised..not that i have a problem it...hes 23, i know this is not common for most men...but are there any risks for him of being uncircumcised...like infections or anything like that? or is it better to have the foreskin removed? lol

Most guys in the world are uncircumcised. That includes Europeans, Latin Americans, and Japanese and Chinese. The United States is the last remaining advanced nation to do this surgery on a big scale, but it's becoming less popular. In some states, the rates of circumcision have dropped to as low as 14%.

Most likely his parents wanted him to have a choice, after all, it is his penis and not anyone others to chop off stuff to affect his sexual pleasures in the feature. That, or they did not want to put their son through this.

BTW, if you need information on how a foreskin works, it slides up and down to rub and stimulate the head. Since it's already lubricated (just like your eyelids) it feels very good.

He lives in a developed country. That means he showers frequently, that means it'll stay clean if you just pulls it back and rubs the head. It's very simple, quick, and feels good. I've never had a problem with keeping clean. =)

Removing the foreskin without medical reasons would put him in high risk of losing sensitivity and pleasure, and making masturbation more difficult. Some other studies have even found higher ED rates after circumcision. So it's best to just leave it there and enjoy what he has.

removing the foreskin prevents bacteria infection, but most ppl who are uncircumsized never exp. that

oh yes definitly he just needs to keep it clean all the time like after sex go and wash it to prevent infections

first of all, it is very common for most men with foreskin, many men around the world have foreskin. just because you don't see a lot of a men with foreskin, that does not mean that the entire men population have no foreskin.

the only thing that uncut men need to do is to pull back the foreskin and wash it carefully. the only reason that men got circumcized is because it is less likely to keep dirt under the foreskin. there won't be any infection if the man washes what is under the foreskin often.

and with the foreskin, the head of the penis is more sensitive, it actually is better sexually. so there is absolutely no reason to remove the foreskin at all unless he can't pull back the foreskin at all.

Don't worry. If it wasn't supposed to be there it wouldn't have grown there in the first place!
Circumcision is really a religious practise and has very little to do with health.

If he is healthy and had no problems then there is no reason to remove it (it is painful for adults and babies but we pretend they can't feel anything). The foreskin is a normal part of the penis and some cultures removed it for religious reasons (how would it please God?).

The risks of any problem are tiny. 80% of the world鈥檚 males are intact like him and the vast majority never have any problem with their foreskin. Using surgery to mutilate the genitals instead of washing in a modern western society makes no sense. Normal intact male genitals are, if anything, easier to wash than female ones and the same substance, smegma collects in the folds of both sorts.
Circumcision removes over half the skin of the penis (about 15 square inches or 40 square centimetres, in an adult) and it's not just simple skin. It's packed with nerve endings, special anatomical features like the ridged band and has a unique elastic gliding action, allowing it to slide on itself and act like lube. This action is what most males use to masturbate with except those who are cut so tightly that they have to use lube or just rub it dry. Of course the intact male has the option to use lube too if he wants to. During intercourse it acts like lube on entry and may act as a dam, preventing lubricating secretions escaping from the vagina. In one study women reported that sex with an intact partner was gentler and more satisfying since he doesn't have to thrust as hard to feel enough stimulation. Removing the foreskin turns the surface of the glans from an inner mucosal membrane to outside skin. Newly circumcised adults usually go through some weeks of intense discomfort as the glans is constantly exposed to rubbing on clothing, until it develops a thicker keratin layer and becomes less sensitive. A new study has shown real differences in fine touch sensitivity between circumcised and intact penises and that the most sensitive parts of the intact penis are those that would be removed by circumcision.
There are claims of protection against HIV from circumcision but this research is contested. They are based on research in Africa, where anal sex is a common form of heterosexual contraception. Even if true, circumcision offers very marginal lessening of the risk of infection, certainly not enough to stop you needing to wear a condom. The vast majority of males wiped out by the first wave of the epidemic in the USA were circumcised and it certainly did not protect them. European countries, where circumcision rates are around 1% have lower rates of HIV infection and other STDs than the USA.
Similar claims about UTIs and penile cancer are also very marginal. You would have to do about 140 circumcisions to prevent one UTI, which can be treated by antibiotics anyway. Penile cancer is so rare as to be a ridiculous reason to circumcise (about 1:100,000 men in developed countries regardless of circumcision rate. Non-circumcising Denmark has a much lower rate of penile cancer than the US. The major complication rate from circumcisions is around 2% (20 per 1000), mostly haemorrhage and serious infection. This negates the beneficial effect on these marginal claims. A small number of babies actually die from circumcision complications.

Foreskin or no he msut make sure he its clean, usually uncut men need more attention and specially cleaning after sex, since the foreskin can store dirty which will cause bacteria.
No need to have it removed if you're ok with it since he's gonna suffer...just make sure you clean it for him thoroughly after...

Not common? Only in the US, where at one point 90% of all infant boys were mutilated. It is down to about 55%, so in a few years the teens will be evenly cut/uncut. Out of the 3 billion boys and men in the world, over 2 billion are uncut, and seem to function fine in their natural state.
