I am a 26-year old virgin and planning to have sex soon. My penis tip is still extremly sensitive becuase I am uncircumcised. I was wondering if anything can be done to make it less sensitive so my girlfriend can touch it without me being in pain.
A lot of masturbation might help to desensitize it.
what is with the penis questions today?
My solution - see a doctor.
With a 120-grade sandpaper.
Happy, who’s just kidding. (You should never whack it with lower than 240-grade.)
That is the first time I’ve heard it referred to as pain!!! What is she grabbing you with - pliers?
In any case, masturbate a couple of times before the festivities begin and then put a condom on once the party has started.
Enjoy it. You only get to lose your virginity once.
A sensitive penis should not be a painful penis. You might want to talk to your doctor about this.
You need to shake some sense into that penis. “Tough love” is always best with a mis-behaving penis. Don’t hold back, choke holds and slapping it around will get it’s attention before too long. Penis discipline is best applied by SO’s as the owner is sometimes too lax and lets the penis’ attention drift and get away with falling asleep when it’s supposed to be sitting up and paying attention.
Contact JDT immediately. 
Seriously, go see a doctor. It shouldn’t be painful to the touch.
on occasion, a penis tip (glans) which is covered by a foreskin gets a yeast infection (balanitis) which can be painful.
See a doc.

That thread title was already TMI, my friend.
But seriously folks, yeah, see a doc and feel better soon.
Well, it depends. I’ve had a very sensitive penis for a very long. I didn’t realize the foreskin was supposed to pull back over the head, and hence, up until I was, oh 21 or so, I had difficulties in having sex, since I’d be in great pain when the foreskin went behind my glans. Oral sex and masturbation were fine since I kept the glans covered by my foreskin (and still do for the latter. Better than using any lubricant.)
What happened was that finally in the shower I started stretching out the skin slowly. After a couple weeks of this, my penis was perfectly normal, although extremely sensitive at the tip since it wasn’t used to direct touch. Even oral sex with the monster unsheathed was a bit uncomfortable and painful. Eventually, the continued (lucky for me!) stimulation desensitized it.
To put your mind at rest, I would see a doctor. However, I do not agree that this is indicative of a big problem. If you have tight foreskin, then I’ll bet dollars to donuts that your problem is the same as mine. Even to this day, my glans is fairly sensitive (nowhere near how it used to be), and I do not like direct touch of it with an unlubricated surface.
Sorry, lemme rephrase. I meant to say:
I do not agree that this is necessarily indicative of a big problem. It very well may be.
No need to see a doctor. I bet those advising this are circumsized and haven’t a clue what they’re talking about.
Pull the foreskin back during the day and leave the thing uncovered for a while. That’ll de-sensitize it a bit. It’ll be sore for a day or two, but not much. After that, wash it fairly vigorously in the shower every day and generally get it accustomed to life outside the foreskin (an organ you are privileged to have - the poor schmucks without one will never know what they’re missing). And away you go…
Being uncircumcized is not the cause of your problem. I’m not circumcized, either, and that doesn’t cause me any pain.
In general, pain in important body parts is something that you really want to see a doctor about. It’s one thing to take risks about your heart, say, or lungs, but you don’t take risks with your penis.
I think Qadgop knows what he’s talking about, seeing as how he is a doctor…
Your call, though.
I come from a family that doesn’t circumsize. My mom always taught the boys that they should always pull the foreskin back (when it’s possible to do so, usually around 3 years of age) and wash it every time they bathe to prevent infections. I’ve taught my son the same thing, and at his current age of 10, he’s had no problems whatsoever in either infections or supersensitivity. For all you uncircumsized men: did your moms teach you the same thing, or was my mother the only wierdo?
PS: I’ve heard that the foreskin has the most nerve endings of the entire penis, so uncircumsized men have a much more pleasurable time doing the nasty…
I started having the same problems (pain and sensitivity) about a year after I became married and having frequent sex. Turned out to be a form of psoriasis. Still have problems if I have sex too often or don’t use enough lubricant.
A little topical cortisone cream for a few days usually clears it up. See a doctor (without a strange mind).

You do know the literal meaning of schmuck, don’t you? (hint: it’s the, ummmm, meat of the subject at hand.)
My sister once found out the hard way; she was about 8 years old and called Dad that once. He about decked her, until he realized she probably didn’t realize just how crude a word it is in Yiddish.
