Autocircumcision

Autocircumcision is the practice by a small number of foreskinned men of permanently keeping and wearing their intact foreskin in a retracted position so that the glans penis is permanently exposed. The practice preserves the intactness of the penis. Some men who practice autocircumcision find it necessary to wear a plastic ring behind their corona to keep their foreskin retracted.

Keratinization

It is expected that keratinization and loss of sensation would occur.

Returning to normal practice

Some reports indicate that a foreskin permanently kept retracted may shorten and may no longer be stay in its normal position where it covers and protects the glans penis. Some stretching may be necessary to repair the damage.
