clean


Explanation:
Penis mit Vorhaut mit sauberen Verhältnissen
penis and prepuce area clean
or
clean, uncircumcised penis

I wouldn't say 'penis with prepuce' and wouldn't add something ('without smegma') that's not there in the source text. The first suggestion ('penis and prepuce area clean') implies that there is a prepuce intact, in other words, that it's an uncircumcised penis.

This version kind of follows the word order (and the thought order, so to speak) of the German original:
penis uncircumcised, clean

agree  uyuni: That's what it basically means. "Clean", nothing else. "Verhältnisse" is redundant here, somehow; as is "without smegma"...
