How can you tell the difference between congenital phimosis and adult-onset phimosis? Also, does having phimosis mean someone is impotent? And is there a way to treat congenital phimosis without needing surgery, maybe using something like betamethasone cream?
Congenital phimosis is present from birth, where the foreskin cannot be retracted due to a tight opening, while phimosis in adults often develops due to scarring or infection. Phimosis is not considered impotence, as it primarily affects the foreskin's ability to retract, not erectile function. Betamethasone cream can be effective in mild cases of congenital phimosis by reducing inflammation and allowing easier retraction, but surgery may still be required for more severe cases.

I'm 28 and considering circumcision. I'm a bit worried about whether there might be any impact on size after the procedure. Also, what are the benefits of getting circumcised at this age? Any insights would be really helpful.
Circumcision at the age of 28 is generally safe and can have several benefits. The procedure can help reduce the risk of certain sexually transmitted infections, such as HIV. It may also lower the risk of urinary tract infections and penile cancer. In terms of size effect, circumcision does not have a significant impact on penile size. The most common pros of circumcision include improved hygiene, decreased risk of infections, and potential reduction in the risk of certain medical conditions. If you decide to undergo circumcision at the age of 28, it is important to follow post-operative care instructions provided by your healthcare provider.
