okay so ive decided to tie my frenulum but cant really find detailed sources of how to actually do it.

for parts i reckon i need the following:

-emla cream
-3/0 suture
- needle (not sure which needle i should buy)
- disinfectant (probs isopropyl alcohol)

for the method i assume you just numb the area, and put the needle through the frenulum near the head, avoiding any veins. then you tie it off and soak 3 times a day for 15 minutes in warm water.

im not sure which type of knot i should do however, or if the materials ive listed are adequate so if someone could give me some advice it would be greatly appreciated
 
Yours looks similar to the way mine looked at one time:) Today I have no frenulum:) I lost it in an unfortunate smelting accident:)
 
Wow, Congratulations to all the guys who have put ties in ! :cool:
Glad to see this thread is helping !
Please feel free to suBathmateit photos to the flickr group. The more information we can share the better.

so weird! you say it looks similar to yours when starting, and my starting size was pretty much the same as yours!

it appears my frenulum is fairly tough though, as its partially torn 4 times now (the last tear has just reopened) but never severed all the way through. it is causing discomfort and i really think its holding me back from gaining length.

ive ordered some emla cream, and tomorrow i will be getting some needles, nylon thread and isopropyl alcohol. should be able to tie my frenulum early next week, im actually kinda excited

dyou know of anything i could use as an alternative to bacitracin? i see you recommend it alot but im in the uk so cant get it
 
Hi,

There is a whole thread on this site about peoples experiences and techniques for tying.
Search for "Frenulum Tying" - you should find it relatively easily.

Good luck.

Hi,

Have a look for the thread called "frenulum tying" - started by PhallusofOsiris.

Good luck.

yeah ive seen the thread and i get the general idea, tomorrow im gonna go out and get the rest og the things i need, although i dont really know where to get the right thread!
 
Myself and a few others here have used .5mm Stretch Magic. It's a stretchy plastic cord used for beading - you can get it at Jo-Ann's or Michael's craft stores or a similar retailer. Works like a charm, probably because when you stretch it it keeps tension so the knot stays tight.

i went to a craft store today and they only had thicker stretchy thread. i also went to 2 supermarkets and a pharmacy and none had needles or any type of thread (which i was very surprised at given i thought it was a fairly common item). ive got a smallish needle i can use that i think will be fine and is sharp enough. as for thread, im either going to use regualr cotton sewing thread, or one of the inner strands from some paracord as its nylon and so a little stretchy. i think the paracord will be the best option. ive also bought some EMLA, e45 cream and some antiseptic, so im all set to go! ill be doing it in a couple of hours
 
okay so i finally did it last night.

i had to psych myself up a little when actually putting the needle in, but tbh with the EMLA cream i felt absolutely nothing!
i did a surgeons not with the single inner paracord strand. i soaked the needle and thread in boiling water, then in antiseptic. i had a shower then wiped my little fella with some antiseptic
i put the emla cream on, waited 10 minutes, rubbed antiseptic on again, put some vaseline on the needle and thread, then antiseptic again, then i put the needle through. i didnt go right to the head, instead i went slightly lower down at a point where my frenulum had a small tear a week ago, and so the frenulum was thinner there. i tied the knot HARD, as hard as possible, but even then i didnt feel like it was that tight, maybe it was the thread i used. i tied another knot to secure it then cut the thread down a little. i fel no pain last night, and no pain today. i only felt a very slight pain when tugging on the string.

i'll update with progress. so far no problems

yeah ive already done it and on day 3 now. i havent been soaking in water 3 times a day, instead ive been keeping it saturated with e45 cream. ive also been wiping/ soaking it with antiseptic atleast 3 times a day (morning, evening, before bed, and sometimes more). there is no signs of infection, no swelling or inflammation at all and no excessively redness. also there has been no blood at all so i think ive done a fairly good job.

Great job, jordey! This is pretty much what I did when I first tied mine. I wouldn't worry about not soaking 3 times a day, I didn't soak it that much apart from when I had a shower/bath before bed. Of course, if you DO have the time and opportunity then it's recommended :)

But yea sounds like it's going really well so far and good job with the cream and hygiene too. Let us know how it progresses :)

yeah im starting to get a little stinging pain now, i think its actually cutting through the frenulum instead of just letting the tissue die. i can see a definate slit, i think i may put a little emla cream on and tighten it, maybe it'll help. and yeah about the soaking, i assumed the reason was to keep the thread moist and the frenulum tissue but tbh the e45 seems to be doing a good job of it.

looking at it i tihnk i may also need to do another tying but we'll see!

after your tying where you left with any ends of the frenulum that stuck out?

Very good Jordey, I just wanted to make sure.
 
This is becoming a revolution...We should sell off the frenulums for secret sexual formulas!!!!!
 
i tied my frenulum as mentioned above and it cut through in like 4 days (the thread just came out yesterday after cutting through). i didnt have the new found freedom i thought i would get, so ive tied again, in the same spot just slightly lower/ deeper down. will have to see if this works or not
 
Hi Jordey,
Thats about the fastest I've heard of, although I suppose it depends on how deep you went on the first one.
I also found that I had to let each one heal for about 2 weeks to see the real effect. The white skin sort of disappears and things move around quite a bit.
Good luck
 
Hi Everyone,
Apologies for post #285 and #286. I thought I was on another thread, and was trying to refer someone to this thread. oh well ...
 
Hi,
Status update - the three ties have healed well, but there is still a little tightness if I retract the foreskin all the way.
I'm going to try an experiment where I cut the thin band that is left with either a nail clipper or the pair of scissors on my pen knife.
I'm scared of using a scalpel as I really don't want to cut to deep.
Anybody out there who has tried something like this ?
