Benefits of Circumcisions for infants, boys and men

Benefits of Circumcisions

Deciding to get a circumcision for their son can be to honour cultural or religious traditions, to seek potential health benefits or for cosmetic reasons. Whatever the motivation, the key is to make an informed choice that feels right for you and your family. 20% of males have an issue with their foreskin at some stage in their life.

Circumcisions can offer a number of potential benefits:

Improved genital hygiene

Decreased risk of Urinary Tract Infections

Decreased risk of Phimosis* after circumcision

Reduced risk of Balanitis (inflammation of the foreskin)

Reduced risk of cervical cancer in women

Interview of Circumcision Benefits

Dr Sheen interviews Prof. Brian Morris, a leading researcher, from the University of Sydney where they discuss the benefits of circumcisions.

 

Word explanation:
*Phimosis  A narrowing of the opening of the foreskin which prevents it from retracting
Lichen Sclerosis  
A scarring condition of the foreskin which can occur at any age and cause a tight foreskin.
