RACP's infant male circumcision policy is detrimental to public health. Read the critique in Pediatric Research, the official journal of Am Assoc Pediatrics, European Soc Pediatr Res, SPR and International Pediatr Res Fdn: Kudos https://t.co/IZLRVE2Stj

Article in Psychology Today on 17 Nov 2023 reports on research evaluating the entire research literature rated by quality that concludes circumcision does not reduce men’s sexual function or pleasure, and that most women prefer circumcised men. https://t.co/GeJbF36n9N

A new article in the journal Global Health: Science and Practice confirms that infant circumcision protects against HIV and other STIs. In so doing it identified multiple flaws in recent contrary data from Denmark. https://t.co/9TfJOIJ2Du

Evidence-based circumcision policy for Australia
Enormous benefits, low risk of harms

[Brian Morris @profbrianmorris]

An analysis just published https://t.co/rT5PpjnG8w finds that if early infant male #circumcision in #Australia were to increase to 90% from the current low 18.7% this would result in 77,000 fewer cases of adverse medical conditions over the lifetime per annual birth cohort.

A meta-analysis just published shows that #circumcision reduces #prostate cancer risk by 10%, even more when performed early in life. Since prostate cancer is very common, an enormous number of men would avoid this dreadful disease if circumcised. https://t.co/181VudT0YZ

Study finds big increase in neonatal circumcision in the US: https://t.co/rUvwrZWLm6
J Pediatr Surg. 2020. It also finds substantial cost benefits when circumcision is performed soon after birth. Waiting until later greatly increases costs and risks.

Good article on circumcision by UTS academic and journalist. It documents suffering from painful phimosis and balanitis as well as the financial pain. Largely avoidable by infant circ.

A new article published today in Advances in Sexual Medicine debunks the findings of a survey by anti-circ activists claiming there are long-term adverse outcomes from #neonatal #circumcision. It shows #intactivism harms #mental health of gullible men. https://t.co/VrNFNiTY3I
