Male Enhancement Facts

Do you believe that circumcision is a key factor in your arousal?

Circumcision is common in some countries more than others. Over 60% of newborn babies in the U.S. are circumcised compared to 24% in the U.K. and 14% in Australia. Some males are circumcised for medical considerations, others for personal reasons or simply parental choice. But, does whether a guy is cut or uncut impact your level of arousal?

Male circumcisions are performed all over the world. There is currently a lot of debate about circumcision in the U.S. and whether it should be carried out routinely on baby boys.

Circumcisions are carried out for a number of reasons; social, cultural, religious and more rarely, for medical reasons. Circumcision is common within the Jewish and Islamic faith communities. Worldwide circumcisions are carried out by people ranging from surgeons, religious leaders, to tribal healers.

Some Facts About Foreskin Restoration

Foreskin restoration has been described even before Celsus, the first great Roman physician (25 B.C. to A.D. 50), wrote “De Medicin.”  The procedure used today is only somewhat adapted from what had been done then so “the patient could move around inconspicuously in Greek and Roman society.”  Celsus drew heavily on his Egyptian and Greek predecessors. Jews felt uncomplete in Greek society and circumcision was looked at as a deformity. Some Jews would try to have their foreskin “put” back on to try to fit in with Greek culture.

In the U.S., the rate of circumcision is coming down according to the most recent statistical data on circumcision published in 1999. Circumcision used to be higher for white infants. Now, black and white rates are about the same according to data from the National Hospital Discharge Survey. Hispanics, in general, do not routinely have circumcisions carried out on their newborn children.

Because the reasons and circumstances vary, it is difficult to accurately estimate the total number of cases of circumcisions. The United States has one of the highest rates of male circumcision with over 60 percent of newborn males born in a hospital having one. This is down from the rate of 85 percent recorded in the 1970s. Over 1.25 million infants are circumcised annually; that’s more than 3,300 babies each day.

What you should know before restoring your foreskin:

There are many methods available on the net to restore foreskin; however very few are from certified medical professionals. Be sure to consult a physician before attempting foreskin restoration.

Foreskin restoration can take from 1-3 years to complete.

Factors such as available penis shaft skin, frequency of techniques and desired amount of coverage play a role in how long it will take to restore your foreskin

Many patients, as an alternative to surgery, may elect to use stretching devices under urological supervision which could produce an acceptable result in 2 to 3 years.

With a surgical procedure, the skin of the distal shaft is advanced forward to create a neo-foreskin. This leaves a denuded area at the base of the penile shaft, which is buried under t he scrotum.  The pigmentation of scrotal skin is a close match to epithelial penile skin.  A catheter is left in for a few days and a dressing is placed over the foreskin pulling it forward until the laminated skin heals.

After an interval of 3 months, the penis is lifted from the scrotum with wings of scrotal flaps on both sides.  The flaps are closed underneath the penis.  The scrotum is also closed at that time.  Variation in technique may be required to best suit the unique anatomy of each patient and erections must be suppressed with anti-testosterone medication.

Autoerotic Asphyxiation Facts

With the recent death of actor David Carradine possibly being linked to sexual asphyxiation, this strange and bizarre fetish is once again in the news. Carradine is not the first star believed to have died from this fetish, as Michael Hutchence, former lead singer of INXS, was believed to have passed from this accidental death, too. While most of the media and the authorities like to claim that these are suicide attempts, the sad truth is that most hangings are not suicide attempts but failure to save them in time during sexual arousal.

Most hangings that occur every year across the world are not from suicide. Most persons found hung are male and found naked with a small percentage of those who die from autoerotic asphyxiation being women. This is usually a clue to what happened like pornographic material scattered about  but for some reason the media and police want to cover up the cause of death as if it is easier to accept that someone wanted to willing die than to admit to the world that they died messing around with a dangerous and deadly fetish.

Sexual asphyxiation has been used for centuries as a questionable form of male enhancement. The idea for this most likely came from subjects who were executed by hanging. Observers at public hangings noted male victims developed an erection, sometimes remaining after death, and occasionally ejaculated when being hanged.  It was believed to be first used as a treatment for erectile dysfunction and impotence.

Yearly, there are around 250 to 1000 accidental deaths in the United States alone from this fetish, but most cases are reported as suicide.  

asphyxiation

There are several methods used to attain the level of oxygen depletion needed such as suffocation, hanging, and the use of rope or cloth used by a partner. In those who practice BDSM, this is referred to as edgeplay or breathplay, and usually involves limits and control to this consensual activity. But even with care, the results of erotic asphyxiation can be dangerous and deadly even to those who who understand the controls need to safely execute this fetish.

The most dangerous forms of this fetish involve autoerotic asphyxiation as when the threshold needed to achieve pleasure is reached.  Most people do not have a way to stop from going over into death. Deaths often occur when the loss of consciousness caused by partial asphyxia leads to loss of control over the means of strangulation, resulting in continued asphyxia and death.

While often erotic asphyxiation is incorporated into sex with a partner, others enjoy this behavior by themselves, making it potentially more complicated to get out of dangerous situations. Victims are often found to have rigged some sort of rescue mechanism that has not worked in the way they anticipated as they lost consciousness.

 While fetish play is usually healthy for an active and engaging sex life, you should never engage in this dangerous and deadly fetish, even with a partner who understands the risk. There are many other alternatives to male impotence and male inadequacy and you should seek the help of a doctor before trying any method of sexual arousal and male enhancement.
