Nine month progress report for restoring foreskin

by Tally on May 10, 2009 Bookmark and Share

I've been restoring for 9 months. And, I miss Winter. Winter was a real ego boost because, with the cold weather, my foreskin covered my flaccid penis almost continuously. Now that Winter is over and the temperature is reaching 80 again (27 Centigrade), my foreskin is relaxing and I've lost my full coverage!  Instead of CI-7, I am CI-5 or CI-6. I have even started wearing my nipple retainer during the day again because my foreskin starts slipping back and I don't like the irritation of my glans touching my clothes.

I'm noticing that my glans is getting shinier. It is still not as glossy as I would like, but I am still manual tugging, which I am sure is keeping my glans from fully returning to its natural state.  My glans is much more sensitive to the touch.  When I started restoring, I could smack my glans with a ruler and not feel it.  Now, no way would I do that.  It would really hurt!

When my wife asked why I wanted to restore, I gave her a quick demonstration. I smacked my glans with a ruler to show her how little sensitivity I had. She jumped when the ruler smacked. I didn't even flinch.  So much for those that say there is no loss of sensitivity from being circumcised!

My schedule is getting back under control and I have gone back to my full tugging schedule. I try to have at least 3 manual tugging sessions a day: first thing in the morning, sometime in early evening, and before I go to bed. I got out of the habit of manual tugging for a minute or two every time I go to the bathroom. I am slowly getting that habit back. The less frequent coverage has really motivated me to not slow down with my tugging efforts. I enjoyed the coverage too much to not get it back.
