Has anyone been circumcised for BXO?
About a year and a half ago I was diagnosed with lichen sclerosis aka BXO.
At the time, the urologist recommended either circumcision or going to a dermatologist, I chose the dermatologist. The dermatologist put me on a regiment of steroid creams and that seemed to work well. Unfortunately, a few months ago I noticed that my BXO had spread.
I started a new cream as a result but I am unsure of its efficacy. Circumcision is beginning to feel inevitable.
For those who were in my position, I have a number of questions. Do you feel circumcision was the right choice? Did it cure your BXO? What was the recovery like? How much inner foreskin did you retain and what is your sensitivity like today compared to how it was before the procedure?
