There is no medical reason except under very unusual circumstances , such in having to treat an existing condition that can not be fixed in any other way. Less then 20% of the words men are circumcised and most of these are done for religious and cultural reasons.

Are men over 45 years old required to be circumcised?

Circumcision is rarely performed on adults except for religious reasons or severe medical reasons. For example, in order to convert to Judaism, a man must be circumcised. (If he's already circumcised, a ritual pinprick drawing a drop of blood suffices.) Most circumcisions are performed on infants.

What does Paul say about circumcision?

He notes that certain people getting circumcised and boasting about it are not obeying the law and therefore have their priorities wrong. He advises that the most important thing is to become a new creation in Jesus not circumcision. The context is that Paul had advised adult converts that they don't need to get circumcised in order to become Christians. As the first Christians were Jewish and were therefore circumcised it was assumed that to join them circumcision was required by adult male converts. However Paul considered that getting circumcised as an adult (no anaesthesis in those days) was a much heavier burden than the apostles had had (being Jewish they had been circumcised close to birth and wouldn't even remember it). Therefore he didn't consider it necessary for them to get circumcised in order to belong to the religion.


Does Abraham's covenant of circumcision follow the male or female line?

The question does not read clearly.1) If it is asking whether the males or females in the family get circumcised, the answer is Males:Gen. 17:10 This is My covenant, which you shall keep, between Me and you and your descendants after you: every male among you shall be circumcised.2) If it is asking whether the male to be circumcised comes to be circumcised on account of his mother's Jewish-ness or his father's Jewish-ness, the answer is that the mother determines the Jewish-ness of the child and whether or not that child should be circumcised. (This comes from the Talmudic Interpretation of Deut. 7:3-4. Read more at the Related Link.)In the case of a Jewish father and non-Jewish mother, the child will have to be converted prior to being required to be circumcised. He can certainly be circumcised while not being Jewish and convert later, but the requirement to be circumcised only applies at the moment of conversion. If the non-Jewish mother converts before the birth of the child, the child is born Jewish.
