Circumcision

Basically, any physician can perform a circumcision. The urologist is no different in performing such a procedure than a regular surgeon. Urologists are likelier to perform circumcisions on older children and adults than on newborn babies, who are routinely circumcised by pediatricians. However, general surgeons are the most notable for performing circumcisions.

The United States has the highest circumcision rate. In America, 90 percent of males are circumcised.

Personally I doubt it. Most boys in the UK are left intact unless they are either Jewish or Muslim and I don't think Tom is either. I reckon he is as nature intended.

No

No, it is not possible.

It has in fact happened where newborns were circumcised.

That would depend on how much of the foreskin is cut of for starters you have to understand that the skin that cover the penis starts at the base and directly covers the shaft (the shaft skin) until it reaches to just behind the glans. After that it becomes lose from the penis starting with the section that is called the outer foreskin, This is the skin that you see from the outside covering the glans. then at the end of the outer foreskin at the tip of the penis you will find the ridged frenar band this is the part of the foreskin that pulls the foreskin in around the glans the frenar band is also the area where the erogenous nerve ending finish, After the frenar band the foreskin doubles bac under itself and at this point gains a fine cover of mucosal tissue where it is in contact with the mucosal tissue of the Glans this tissue reduces the need for lubricants both during sexual intercourse and masturbation the inner fore skin goes a small distance past the sulcus (where the glans join the shaft of the penis) the result is that an intact penis looks like it has the same skin from base to tip with the foreskin fitting snugly over the glans until it closes or nearly closes at the end.

A partial circumcision would mean that the frenar band would be removed along with the associated nerves. And without the nerves there would be a lot of sensation lost. Then without the effect of the frenar band pulling the end of the foreskin together you would have a loose tube of skin hanging there that would retract or not as the situation at the time dictates.

Circumcision has no known medical benefits, and no major medical association recommends routine infant circumcision. Circumcision caries with it serious risks of adverse outcomes including prolonged bleeding, infection, severe pain, and surgical error that can result in damage to the penis. For these reasons most physicians recommend against circumcision. An uncircumcised penis requires no care until the boy can retract the foreskin, usually by age 4. He should simply wash the head of the penis with soap and water during his regular bath or shower just like any other part of the body. If you wish to have your newborn circumcised without anesthesia, it will cost $400-$500 (U.S. dollars). The cost depends on where you live. Infant circumcision is not covered by national health care in places like the United Kingdom and Canada. Infant circumsion is also not covered by most health insurances in the United States. While most infant circumcisions do not have serious complications, there are risks to the procedure, including pain, bleeding, and infection. Every year in the United States, there are a numbers of deaths due to infant circumcision, most of which result from infection or blood disorders. There are also a significant number of irreversible injuries to the penis that occur during circumcision each year. Circumcision is far less common now in the United States than it once was. During the 1970s and 1980, around 80% of male infants were circumcised in the United States. A study conducted in the United States from 2005-2007 found that circumcision rates had fallen to below 40% in most of the United States. In the western United States, fewer than 25% of infant males were circumcised in 2005-2007. Circumcision can have long lasting consequences. Circumcision removes a normal part of the penis that functions to protect the glans of the penis. Removal of the foreskin can cause decreased sensitivity of the penis and decreased pleasure during sexual intercourse. This is yet another reason why circumcision is becoming increasingly uncommon.

the only reason they say it is necessary is for sanitary purpose. Other then that there is no "medical" advantage to having a circumcision.

Circumcision surgery currently has three most commonly used circumcision devices:

1. Traditional circumcision-the most classic surgical method
2. Disposable circumcision device
3. Disposable Circumcision Anastomat

Our website has a detailed introduction of the three devices, Our website has a detailed introduction of the three devices, and there are URLs in my profile.

A Jew that does circumcision is called a Mohell

That depends on the person doing it In the case of babies this very painful form of genital mutilation is done without any pain killers as the pain killers are dangerous to infants

If after a circumcision any skin adheres to the glans (head) of the penis this is a serious complication that can permanently affect the penis. You should promptly seek medical attention to avoid further damage to the penis by having these attachments treated. Sometimes, skin from the shaft of the penis can become attached to the glans (head) following circumcision. This complication of circumcision is known as skin bridges. It is very important to seek medical attention promptly if you notice this condition. They will not go away on their own, and failure to have this condition treated promptly can result in life long damage to the penis in terms of its appearence, structure, and function.

The penis of a newborn child has not entirely finished in its development and is usually at that stage still firmly attached to the glans penis like the fingernails are to the finger. this is a natural way for the penis to be and in time the foreskin comes away from the glans. there is no need to be concerned about it not retracting. the foreskin is likely to become retractable within the first few years of life but may take until or after puberty to do so. once the penis is used for sexual intercourse or masturbation however there are definite advantages in the foreskin being able to be retracted. and if it turns out that it is too tight to pull back over the glans and back again then it is time to undergo some "foreskin stretching exercises". just look up foreskin stretching on the internet and you will find many pages that will give you first class advice. The first thing to remember is that the foreskin is a very important part of the penis, its function, its protection and very importantly its performance for both yourself and your pardner.

IF this about not being circumcised, then not being circumcised is perfectly natural and safe. Many millions of men live that way w/o any problem.

Your son is in luck then. Circumcision is painful for infants, and it can have serious complications including bleeding, infection, and permanent injury to the penis. Circumcision removes a part of the penis which has an important function. The foreskin functions to protect the sensitive glans (head) of the penis. as well as playing a part in generating sexual pleasure in its own right. Removal of the foreskin can lead to decreased sensitivity and decreased sexual pleasure later in life. Circumcision is becoming increasingly uncommon. In the United States in 2007, less than 40% of male infants were circumcised. Above all it is now being discovered that the trauma associated with this horribly painful practice can have serious effects on a child's brain and mental state.

Take this opportunity to protect the health of your new son.

Yes, circumcision can be performed at any age. In fact, it is far easier to perform circumcision on adults.

The surgical wound should heal quickly, with normal urinary function resuming immediately.There should be no complications of sexual activity.

In Judaism, boys are circumcised during a ceremony called the Brit Milah in Hebrew (בְּרִית מִילָה) or Bris in Yiddish, which takes place when the boy is eight days old.

The Bar Mitzvah is a different ceremony held when the boy is thirteen years old, marking the fact that the boy is now considered old enough under Jewish law to be responsible for his actions and perform certain tasks in the synagogue.

You cannot train it to stay retracted because it was designed by nature to cover the end of the penis to protect it and keep it sensitive. It is serving it's purpose just fine the way it is and when it is time for sexual activity it will retract temporarily during such use. As a mater of fact not only does it retract it rolls back and forth during sex ans masturbation reducing the need for lubricant. circumcised men are much more likely to have problems with drying out a woman's natural lubricants

Most female genital mutilations don't involve any interference with the birth path. It generally consists of chopping of a piece of the clitoris in the cases where it involves excision and the sowing together of the vagina they simply slit her open with a razor or sharp knife while the birth is taking place then sew her up again this happens in about 10% of female genital mutilations.

I looked for doctors that did this but could not find any that seemed to know what they were talking about. Take care for sharletans.

No.

You contact a urologist.

Don't. If price is a concern call a number of urology clinics in your local yellow pages and find one which seems the most affordable. Some plastic surgery offices also perform adult circumcisions. Often times payment plans are available. If there is a medical condition which warrants this procedure and you are insured, then your insurance will likely cover most or all of the cost.

Adult circumcision requires a lot of talent with a scalpel to achieve an aesthetically pleasing result. As opposed to infant circumcision, sutures are generally required all around the shaft of the penis where the skin has been removed to keep the resulting wound from tearing apart during erections occurring during REM sleep. Sutures like this would be incredibly difficult to do by yourself. Even if you managed to achieve this feat you would likely end up with a circumcision which is not visually pleasing and within very little time you'd be paying a real doctor to repair the damage you did to yourself.

You only get one penis. Save the money and do this the right way.

Don't do it. circumcision is an unnecessary mutilation. get the opinion of a few doctors about doing this to your child first. the effects are not only physically deleterious but in many case psychologically also.
