Abstract

The article reports on the American Academy of Pediatrics' (AAP's) upcoming "Circumcision Policy Statement," due out on August 27, 2012. The policy reduces the truth about male circumcision and places physicians' interests ahead of patients' needs. It omits any analysis of the foreskin and the impact its removal has on normal sexual functioning and on the health and quality of life.
