Foreskin doesn't retract Dr
Hello Dr.
Dr., I am a 23 year old male.
My penis's foreskin does not retract back when erect.
The head of my penis is covered with skin only.
Is it anything to worry? It's called Phimosis right?
No problems in urinating or having sex. Just concerned with my condition.
Also, sex with my partner isn't that pleasurable because of skin. What to do?

Since you are so much worried about the foreskin please consult with a General Surgeon in your area and get a circumcision done. Only after that you will know whether sex is more pleasurable with the foreskin or without the foreskin.
So far there is no scientific basis for your statement that "sex with your partner is not that pleasurable because of the skin".
