health Male Circumcision - Is It Necessary?

[Green Lantern]

I'm sure meron, pero like you said, it is not something that has to be done.

 

Regarding the adolescent growth spurt - it just conicides with the time that most boys are circumcised - before high school.

 

Buti nga sa Pilipinas Boys lang ang dumadaan sa circumcision, noong nasa Indonesia ako I learned that the women are circumcised there as well.

What kind of Circumcision sa Women?

 

Doc sa medical standpoint mas ok ba tuliin pag baby pa lng or pag before highschool?

[Green Lantern]

individual preference.

Personally I would have it done at a later age, at least your son can cummunicate any problems

a very painful and degrading process. female circumcision is already banned i think; they remove the outer lips of the vagina thus mutilating it making sex unbearable for the woman.

 

anyway, am not a doctor but a pediatrician told me that a male's penis will get bigger if the circumcision was done late in the boys age, like 10 upwards. but because he said it to me in a casual setting, i don't know if he was joking or not

I am not too sure about the penis growing bigger if it is circumcised at a later age. As far as I know, it has to do with testosterone levels

OK dapat kung meron. kasi dati tutuksuhin ka pag d kpa tule...

i agree...in my opinion its always accepted to get circumcised at a latter age than in the young..well at least complications are easily noticeable...i havent heard a case though<in my experience> that any untoward incident happened during and after infantile circumcision at least practiced properly..

Dapat magpatuli talaga kasi nga kukupalin, siguro naman alam nyo kung ano yung kupal. yun bang kulay puti na nakulob na ihi ata. Meron din ang babae nyan iba lang ang tawag nila, pagdi sila nakapag hugas, makukulob yung ihi at magiging kupal din. Madali lang magpatuli, kung kinakabahan yung bata o yung nanay dapat sa doktor para safe. Ako gaya ng iba pukpuk lang ng labaha ang tuli, tapos bayabas lang na panglanggas, alang pampamanhid o anti-biotic o anu mang gamot. Simpleng procedure lang ang pagtuli. Sinabi lang na magbabad muna sa tubig bago ang tuli. Dapat after graduation ng elem. tuliin na yung bata. Hindi hygienic pag hindi tuli. Saka nasa Bible din na kailangan tuliin ang bata.

i was circumcised nung baby pa ko. german cut. i don't know kung matutuwa ako hindi. OTOH hindi ko na-experience yung pain, kaso part kasi yung pagtutuli sa society natin. hindi ako tuloy maka-relate sa tuli stories ng mga kaibigan ko. hehe.

A few years ago, the surgery department of a certain hospital in manila condemned the practice of non therapeutic circumcision, like "operation tule". Circumcision was only limited to correct certain medical conditions like recurrent urinary tract infection due to phimosis (abnormally small opening of the foreskin).

JUST CURIOUS IS IT STILL POSSIBLE TO CIRCUMCISE AT ADULT AGE OF 40

Yes it is still possible. There is not cut off age for the procedure. What is important is the indication (reason) and that the patient has been fully informed of the risks and benefits of the procedure.

 

The oldest I've done was a 34 year old, request ng wife niya.

My eldest son, who just turned 9 y/o, is not circumcised unlike my younger son, 8 y/o. Since he was my first born and I was inexperience at motherhood, I didn't think I can handle taking care of his belly button and circumcision at the same time. So I decided to just have it done when he's about 5. The doctor's told me they would have to put him under general anesthesia and with his asthma there are some risks involved.

So hanggang ngayon hindi pa siya tule. For hygienic reasons, I want him circumcise but I'm afraid of the risk. He hasn't had an asthma attack in about 4 to 5 years. Maybe next summer when my hubby is home so he can help me.

 

IMHO:

The best time for circumcision is when the foreskin has already separated from the bulb. Normally, that is about 13 to 15 years old, it is also at that age where in the surgeon can also make the most precise idea of how much foreskin is to be removed, totally eliminating the chances for a second circumcision later in life. Another advantage is that the boy is already responsible enough to take care of the affected area. If you didn't wait for the foreskin to separate from the bulb by itself, the child will experience extreme pain the moment the anesthesia wears off.

 

To: exal

According to the surgeon who worked on my child & a dermatologist, it is possible for a 40 year old to be circumcised. But at that age, you would need more time for recovery.

sa mga girls, is there a difference?

meaning doing it with a circumcised penis vs uncircumcised?

A doctor once joked to me that the decision to circumcise should be made by the girlfriend or wife because they are the ones who will be using it.
