All mammals have a foreskin in one form or another. IE the glans penis are an internal organ that require protection so the process of procreation can be carried out with optimum results. the prepuce (foreskin) protects the glans from caritinisation and drying out it also covers the the tip or the opening of the penis ans stops foreign invasion of infecting substances. in the case of sexual intercourse it makes entry into the vagina easier and more pleasant for the woman . Evolution is a wonderful thing and seems to have a knack for always putting the pusel together in the best possible way.

You cannot see the head of your penis and you find it very hard to have sexual intercourse- why has my foreskin completely hidden the head of my penis?

you could try circumcision, but that's up to youAnswerThe foreskin is a shield to protect the penis from damage, as sexual reproduction is greatly needed in evolution and to keep the mammal's race existent, in this case, a human. When the foreskin gets stuck to the penis, the head of the penis might be incredibly dirty or might of even covered the entire head.But the foreskin can only cover the head of the penis, it is joined to the lower Frenulum. The head of the penis is called the penial glands.Without the foreskin it is very difficult to masturbate.When the foreskin is pulled far enough, it can actually stretch down the entire penial shaft, but cannot reach the scrotum in a fully erected penis.The foreskin may remain tight, but pulling the foreskin gradually, further and further each day.Some people are scared of their foreskin from being pulled away for the first time.This is common.But if the penis is damaged and / or infected it is strongly advised to visit your doctor in sexual or penial medicine, usually located in a hospital.

What is a long foreskin?

By examination of the word 'long' one would assume the question is referring to a foreskin greater than average. Average foreskin covers the glans of the penis completely when soft. When erect average foreskin typically slides back and exposes some if not all of the glans. If a man has 'long' foreskin, by description alone it suggests that the foreskin is of a greater/longer amount than average. Some men with longer foreskins can have an erection with no exposure of the glans. In other cases the foreskin can be long enough to cover the glans during erection with excess at the tip. Typically the position of the foreskin is dependant upon the elasticity and size of the frenum, which attatches the foreskin to the underside of the glans. The more flexible and abundant the frenum is, the more likely the foreskin is able to slide up and down.

You are 13 and have no foreskin?

If you don't have foreskin that means you have been circumcised. Circumcision is a surgery during which part of the skin of the penis, called the foreskin, is cut off of the rest of the penis. After circumcision the head of the penis is always exposed since there is no foreskin left to cover it. Foreskin does not grow back after it has been cut off. Most circumcisions are performed when boys are only a few days old, which is why you don't remember it.
