A LARGE portion of men complain that after a circumcision they have loss of sensation, suffer from premature ejaculation and sometimes impotence. This is normal unfortunately because you have lost 10-20,000 nerves, the most sensitive ones to boot, during the circumcision. The area that was operated on was, as you probably know, a very erogenous zone, in fact it's usually the most sensitive area of the body. Now, your glans (the head) is constantly exposed, there's no sliding, no lubrication (your foreskin used to make lubrication, but now you don't have one) so your head is very slowly callousing, becoming rough and desensitized. What was once sensitive is now losing sensitivity because it is just out there without any protection.
You probably are also noticing you have more of a difficulty with preventing ejaculation. That is because the foreskin allows one to feel when the ejaculatory process is going to start. Without your foreskin, you are less likely to know when your body is going to ejaculate (come).
You may notice that there is an area underneath your head, right where the shaft and the head meet that is sensitive. That is your frenulum and it is the only leftover portion of your foreskin since your surgery. That area would be a great place to stimulate, especially with LONG strokes, because it brings you as close to having those 10-20,000 nerves endings back. Having that fondled, licked, placing a vibrator on it will most likely bring a lot of pleasure back for you.
Some people say you can restore SOME of the sensation back through resurrection surgery (creating a new foreskin), but I haven't found much evidence to fully support that. For some men it works and for others it doesn't. If you are interested to know more about that, check out www.norm.org or www.cirp.org.
You are going to learn through this new chapter of your life that having sexual sensations and having sex is more than just your penis feeling good. If you can see the light at the end of this tunnel you will learn how to use your whole body for sexual sensation and delight. Your penis will never be the same but you can work with what you have and enjoy it, it's just a matter of redirecting your values, beliefs and assumptions.
