Smegma itself is not a direct cause of penile cancer, but poor hygiene leading to the accumulation of smegma may contribute to an increased risk.

Most doctors recommend against circumcision because of the possible adverse events following the surgery, including prolonged bleeding, infection, moderate to severe pain, and long term decrease in penile sensitivity and sexual pleasure.
