My foreskin seems somewhat long, and I have not yet had sexual intercourse. I would like to ask whether it is possible to engage in sexual activity with a foreskin?

Sexual intercourse is possible with a foreskin, but patients with phimosis or redundant prepuce should undergo surgical correction as soon as possible. Typically, individuals with true phimosis or stenotic (narrow) redundant prepuce are unable to engage in normal sexual activity. Due to impaired ejaculation, their reproductive function may also be adversely affected. In contrast, patients with non-stenotic (fully retractable) redundant prepuce often can maintain normal sexual function. Nevertheless, for the sake of one’s health, timely consultation at a reputable, specialized medical facility for circumcision remains strongly recommended.
