Male Circumcision - Is It Necessary?


Recommended Posts

adult, about 40 year old.

 

 

Risks/Complications

 

As with all surgical procedures, there is a risk for bleeding and infection when performing a circumcision. Other risks include severe bruising (hematoma), poor cosmetic result, and a change in sensation during sex.

 

 

Complications that can occur following adult circumcision may include the following:

 

Buried penis (penile shaft buried below the surface of the pubic skin)

Chordee (abnormal downward bend of the penis)

Complications from the anesthetic

Meatal stenosis (narrowing of the urine channel [urethra] at the top of the penis)

Poor cosmetic appearance

Skin bridges (foreskin reattaching to the glans)

Tearing of the sutures, usually due to erection

ok pa din ba ang "pukpok" tuli procedure? It was my big brother used to say when i asked him,ano procedure sa kanya. ouch... la pang anesthesia sa kanya that time...

 

docs, my nephew will be turning 9 next year,how will i know if he is ready for circumcision?.... Will it be proper for a nurse to do the procedure since here in our place (tertiary hospital) i sometimes see nurses do the suturing...

hmm.. strictly speaking nurses should not be doing the job of a physician, in your case performing circumcision which is supposed to be done by a surgeon.. nurses are not properly trained and qualified for this and should not be condoned even if there is a shortage of qualified physicians in your place.. mahirap na lalo na kung magkaroon ng problema at komplikasyon..

Traditionally, circumscision is done on the summer before entering first-year high school. That way, the boy's penis is large enough to be manipulated and mahihiya syang pumasok ng hindi pa tuli. But nowadays, it's only done for traditional purposes.

Traditionally, circumscision is done the summer before entering first-year HS. For one the boy's penis would be large enough to be manipulated so to speak and he would be embarrased to go to school not yet circumcised as compared to his classmates. But nowadays it's only done for tradional reasons.

not having been circumcised never did me any harm! The presence of the foreskin adds a certain something, IMO, during masturbation.

 

Circumcision & vasectomy - can the two operations be performed on the same day?

If you need or the other, make sure you give the right word.............

Circumcision is culture-bound. Ours is a culture that expects it in every male. It is also a rite of passage when a male member (pun intended) is finally proclaimed as an adolescent by its immediate communities (home, school, etc.).

 

Popularly, it has something to do with hygiene, where the circumcised is said to have clean-smelling penises.

The patient should always be given the choice kung gusto nya mag pa tuli or hindi. Kaya hindi dapat tinutulian ang mga bata below 15 yrs old. The school should teach the children about this. Dami na nag papatuli na nagkakaroon ng psychological problems dahil takot na takot mag patuli at na pilit lang ng parents or because of peer pressure.

kaka pa tuli ko lang sa anak ko. he's 11. i'm deeply regretting it now. pinatuli dahil medyo short siya for his age, alam niyo yung thinking na tatangkad dahil nagpatuli na... maling mali.

 

kawawa yung bata. sa tingin ko hindi yung cut yung mahirap. ang mahirap yung pag forcibly retract or tear ng foreskin from the glans of the penis. this is really damaging and painful para sa bata. not to mention unnecessary.

 

 

sayang. if i had to do it all over again. i'd wait for my son to turn 15 or older before i get him circumcised.

 

hopefully walang lasting damage and i hope everything heals well properly.
