How To Prepare For Ontario Circumcision As An Adult

By Susan Thomas


The choice to get circumcised as an adult is a big one. To ensure that everything goes as expected, you need to find a dependable local surgeon and also effectively prepare for your operation and recovery period. The fact that Ontario circumcision surgery is an outpatient procedure comes as a breath of fresh air to many adults who have chosen to undergo the cut.

The aim of the surgery is to remove the foreskin or simply the skin that covers the tip of a penis. The surgeon will gently pull the foreskin forward before trimming it and getting the edges stitched. While the majorities of kids and teens get circumcised because of religious or hygiene reasons, adults will mainly choose to get cut for aesthetic reasons or with the hopes of treating concerns like phimosis, which prevent the foreskin from rolling back.

When preparing for a procedure, the first thing you need to do is inform your doctor about any medicines or natural products you are taking. Some adjustments may be necessary if what you are using can increase your risk of a slow response to anesthesia or profuse bleeding. You should consult with your primary doctor if you are under medication like aspirin, Clopidogrel, warfarin or other blood thinners. In this case, it will be necessary to stop the intake for several days before the procedure.

You should prepare to go without eating for at least six hours before your surgery. In case you will be under a general anesthesia, you can have a small amount of water beforehand. Bear in mind that any food in your system during an operation can put your life in danger.

For adults, it is important to clean and shave the public area before surgery. You also want to carry some tight briefs that will allow the surgical dressing to remain put as you leave the hospital. Normally, it is best to have a decent number of tight briefs that you can wear at home, until the swelling and soreness subsides.

Quitting the cigarette is also necessary if you want the operation to be successful and the healing process smooth. Nicotine can slow down the process of healing by triggering unexpected bleeding. If you consume alcohol, quit the bottle for about two days to your operation. Alcohol can leave your body dehydrated and also hinder the anesthesia from being effective.

If you have opted to be put under a general anesthesia, you will need a friend or relative who can drive you home. The effects of the administered drug can remain within your system for a few hours. After being discharged, you can take two days of rest, though this is in most cases not necessary. Even though some pain and discomfort is expected, the pain medication your surgeon will offer you will be enough to keep you comfortable for the first few days.

There are more than a few benefits allied with getting circumcised. First, you will be immune to concerns such as balanitis and phimosis and you will also be at reduced risk of contracting HIV infections. Then again, cleaning the penis effectively will not be a hassle.
