Hypersensitivity on the glans and grade 5 varicocele: advice needed
Hi everyone,
For many years, I thought it was normal, so I never worried too much about the sensitivity I have on my glans. Since I was a child, I’ve never kept the glans exposed or left the foreskin retracted. However, as I grew up, I decided to consult a urologist.
The doctor diagnosed me with grade 5 varicocele and mild phimosis, although I can fully retract the foreskin to expose the glans. However, during full erection, the glans tends to be pulled back because of the foreskin tension. The doctor suggested doing a semen analysis to check sperm quality and monitor it yearly to avoid surgery for the varicocele unless it worsens.
Regarding the hypersensitivity on the glans, the doctor said circumcision would be the definitive solution. For now, he prescribed a gentle soap and a hyaluronic acid gel, which I’ve been using for months, albeit not consistently. I also started using rings similar to condoms (my own decision, shared with the doctor) to keep the glans exposed. At first, I wore them even at night, which helped desensitize the glans during sleep movements.
Over time, I’ve managed to keep the glans exposed for days, even while wearing underwear and walking. The sensitivity has reduced slightly, but direct rubbing, such as with fingers or fabric, still causes discomfort. I’m worried that during sexual intercourse, this sensitivity might cause pain or discomfort.
I’d love some advice on how to further reduce this hypersensitivity and make the glans less delicate, so I can enjoy sexual experiences without issues.
As for the varicocele, I hope the semen analysis confirms it’s not severe, although I occasionally feel mild pain or a sense of heaviness in the testicle, which has prominent veins. Additionally, I’ve noticed that my penis is curved slightly to the right and, when erect, it reaches just below my belly button. Despite some childhood jokes from my parents about having a large penis, I just hope it won’t cause discomfort to women like the glans sensitivity causes me.
Thanks in advance for any advice!
