I was wondering if my husband can get a circumcision at the age of 26? He has a penis that is curved, will it be a problem? But also a problem is he has this bed wetting issue that has been occuring for the past few years. He does this every month or so. He eats healthy and he doesn’t drink caffeine drinks. What can be the cause of this? It happens when he dreams bad stuff he says and he can’t get out of his dreams… he wakes up wet.

Hi Nancy,

Thanks for your E-mail inquiry and visiting our web-site http://penisdoctor.com/circumcision.htm.

A circumcision is perhaps the highest cosmetic calling given to a urologist.  
However, we must be mindful of two other important issues, penile curvature and bed wetting (enuresis).  Just to digress one of the most memorable cases in the past 31 years of practice was a bed wetting adult executive type man who had received the million dollar work up from others to ascertain exactly what his problem was.  The answer was later revealed to me.  He was sleeping on a water mattress with a very small pin hole in it, that would never leak unless about a 200 pound man and wife were on top and maybe doing things.  A web-site about bed-wetting in adults is http://www.nafc.org/bladder-bowel-health/bedwetting-2/adult-bedwetting/  One approach is timed voidings, getting up in the middle of the night by alarm clock if needed, and restriction of fluids after 6 PM

Before his circumcision is done, at least we would like to know if he wishes correction for curvature, has he received prior treatment with medication, etc.?  Please check out our penile curvature (Peyronie’s) website  http://penisdoctor.com/peyronies.htm
