Hi and thank you so much for this query.

The foreskin can only be retracted as far back as the frenulum. This is entirely normal and would not in any way interfere with your sexual life. Feel happy and comfortable about this.

As you get sexually active, please always consider to use protection during intercourse so as prevent STDs like gonorrhea, HIV/AIDS, syphilis, Chlamydia, etc.

I hope you find this helpful. I wish you well Feel free to ask for clarifications if need be.
