Sexual injury of circumcision: Difference between revisions

== Ejaculatory function ==

Circumcision affects ejaculatory function in different ways. In some men, excision of the [[foreskin]] causes hyperstimulation of the corona glandis, resulting in [[premature ejaculation]]. In other men, excision of the foreskin and its [[Foreskin sensitivity| nerves]] seems to decrease PE.

Waldinger et al. recruited 500 men (98 [[circumcised]] and 261 not-circumcised) from five countries: the Netherlands, [[United Kingdom]], Spain, Turkey, and the [[United States]] and studied their ejaculation times during [[sexual intercourse]]. They found that the [[circumcised]] men in the study took on average 6.7 minutes to ejaculate, compared with 6.0 minutes for the [[uncircumcised]] men. This difference was not statistically significant. The comparison excluded Turkey, which was significantly different from the other countries studied.<ref name="Waldinger2005">{{REFjournal
