The foreskin prosthesis is installed over the penile glans and shaft of a circumcised male and functions similarly to a natural foreskin, protecting the glans from abrasion and desensitization due to contact with clothing. This allows the glans to regain sensitivity previously lost due to constant exposure to abrasion and contact with clothing, thereby improving sexual stimulation and performance. The prosthesis may be retracted to expose the glans, just as a natural foreskin. The foreskin prosthesis may be formed of virtually any suitable seamless material, e.g., very thin latex or synthetic plastic tubes, very fine knit or braided seamless fabric tubes, etc. In each embodiment, a single tube is everted back over itself to form two protective layers. In some embodiments, the two layers are sealed to one another at both ends, forming a volume therebetween containing a liquid or gel for further tactile isolation and protection of the glans.
A foreskin prosthesis, comprising:
A foreskin prosthesis for a human penis, comprising a single, continuous sleeve formed of a thin, flexible, resilient, seamless length of tubular material having a glans coverage portion with an open distal end and a penile shaft coverage portion with an open proximal end opposite the distal end, the sleeve having a narrow diameter center portion defining an inner portion adapted for covering the glans up to the penile shaft adjacent the coronal sulcus and an outer portion foldable back over the inner portion concentric therewith and closely fitting thereabout, the outer portion being adapted for covering the glans up to the base of the penis.
