WHAT YOU DON'T KNOW ABOUT CIRCUMCISON.

WHAT YOU DON'T KNOW ABOUT CIRCUMCISON, COULD HURT YOUR SON!

 

Each year, almost two million boys are routinely circumcised after birth-even though there is rarely a sound medical reason to do so!
The foreskin is more than just a piece of skin: It's a very important, specialized, and unique part of the male body.
 
Now a leading paediatrician exposes the myths and misconceptions of America's most commonly performed surgery, including little-known religious support for not circumcising, in this balanced, comprehensive, and compassionate guide that will change your mind about everything you thought you knew about this procedure.
 
Discover:-
• The six common (and fallacious) reasons doctors give when recommending circumcision-and a parent's best counterarguments and responses
• Why doctors are dangerously ignorant about circumcision
• The protective, sensory, and sexual functions of the foreskin
• Little-known facts about circumcision procedures-the inherent risks, proven complications, and disadvantages of each
• Care of the intact and circumcised penis
• What to tell your son when he asks you why he looks different from Dad
...and much more.

WHAT YOUR DOCTOR MAY NOT TELL YOU ABOUT CIRCUMCISION.

The most common questions parents ask about circumcision.

The answers may surprise - even shock-you!
• Isn't a circumcised penis cleaner?
• I'm told that circumcision can prevent urinary tract infections, HIV infection, and cancer, including cervical cancer in women. Is this true?
• My husband is circumcised. Won't my son want to look like his daddy?
• Will circumcision cause my baby pain?
• My mother told me I should circumcise my baby right after he's born so he won't have to endure the procedure later in life. Does this make sense?
• My paediatrician says my son's foreskin is too long. Is this healthy?
• My son's foreskin is red, inflamed, itching, and uncomfortable-does this mean he will need to be circumcised?
• My ten-year-old is having his tonsils out and the doctor suggested circumcising him as well since he will be under anaesthesia. Does this make sense?
• What if an adult still has a non-retractable foreskin?

WHAT IS MALE GENITAL INTEGRITY?

 

~~~ ~~~ Genital Integrity ~~~ ~~~

 


Genital Integrity is the principle that all human beings—whether male, female or intersexed—have the right to the genitalia they were born with.

It opposes involuntary and medically unnecessary genital modification including male or female circumcision, or sexual reassignment surgery on intersexed children.
