Male Circumcision - Is It Necessary?


Recommended Posts

May I ask lang...

 

Saan pwedeng magpatuli ang isang 40 years old man? Nahihiya daw kasi syang mag-patuli at his age na.... gusto nya yung secret at walang ibang makakaalam kundi doctor and sya lang...

 

anyone please advise my friend, di ko rin kasi alam e...

 

or is there any member who is a doctor here who can do the procedure for him?

 

thank you...

Can anyone reply here if you know a doctor who can do this?

It's not medically necessary. It's true you are at higher risk for uti, but that's only if you have poor hygiene. On the other hand, there are some disadvantages, such as loss of sensitivity.

 

It comes down to personal choice (or parent's choice), either for religious or aesthetic reasons, or peer pressure.

Hello and good day to everyone! As a surgeon, I acknowledge that in the international community, circumcision is a matter of choice, culture, and religion. Medically speaking, with the possible exception perhaps of phimosis (narrowed opening of the foreskin) leading to recurrent inflammation of the foreskin, it cannot be said that there is a strict indication for circumcision.

 

Furthermore, any physician, strictly speaking, may do the circumcision. If I remember my medico-legal lessons correctly, it is one of the two surgical procedures that a GP may legally perform. The other one is Incision and Drainage. That being said, I think only a few MDs really know how to do it using the proper techniques based on the proper principles. The "dorsal slit" technique used in tuli missions, though functionally correct, is not, theoretically speaking, quite the correct technique. Yun lang naman.
