Frenulum
Frenulum
Hello!
I am 19 year old healthy male. I'm not sure if my frenulum is too short. I can pull the foreskin back when flacid, but when hard I can do it just a little bit behind the penis gland and then it's tight, slighty painful and pulls the gland downwards a little. I've never thought it's really serious, I can masturbate pulling my foreskin up and down my gland normally, but I'm not sure would it be a problem for sex?
Thank you in advance!

Hi andrej,
So, if it is painful to pull the foreskin back, you may want to pay a visit to a healthcare provider, as in order to use a condom correctly if you have a foreskin, you need to be able to pull it back without difficulty or pain. You can read more on that here:

And you to whom adversity has dealt the final blow/with smiling bastards lying to you everywhere you go/turn to and put out all your strength of arm and heart and brain/and like the Mary Ellen Carter rise again.

Hello!
Thank you for your answer, but it is not painful to pull foreskin BACK at all! Just slighty to pull it DOWN.

Re: Frenulum
Ah, okay, I follow. I would still check-in with a healthcare provider, just so you can know whether or not it's anything to be concerned about.
