The CDC has published draft guidelines for circumcision. Circumcision is becoming more common in the United States. It’s worth noting that the CDC doesn’t recommend that parents have their newborn sons circumcised. Instead, it recommends parents look at the medical and cultural advantages of the procedure before making any decision. Despite the CDC’s position on circumcisions, parents should still evaluate whether the procedure suits them.
According to the CDC, circumcision reduces the risk of HPV, the virus that causes cervical cancer, by 35%. The risk of contracting chlamydia, trichomonas and herpes via sexual contact can also be reduced by circumcision. Additionally, circumcision also decreases the risk of contracting HIV by 60%, making it a great choice for gay couples. The benefits aren’t limited to this:
Another study concluded that circumcision helps protect against urinary tract infection (UTIs). This infection can result in a half-death for a baby’s kidney. A CDC researcher who oversees the CDC’s sexually transmitted disease and HIV programs found that a single UTI affects about one in every three men in their lifetime. However, circumcision does not reduce the risk of getting urinary tract infection (UTIs).
In addition to the benefits of circumcision, another study suggested circumcision protects against urinary tract infections. Researchers discovered that one-third of uncircumcised males will suffer from a UTI within their lifetime. The CDC said that there are no contraindications or risks associated with having an uncircumcised infant. Multiple scientific studies supported these findings. It’s safe for us to conclude that circumcision has low risks, despite all the controversy.
It is not known whether circumcision can help prevent the spread of HIV, but it has been shown to decrease the risk of developing cancer in uncircumcised men. It is also a preventative measure against genital and cervical herpes. Women may also benefit from the surgery to prevent pregnancy and reduce the risk for ovarian cysts. This procedure is considered safe by doctors who have the necessary qualifications.
A new study commissioned by the CDC argues that circumcision reduces the risk of HIV infection in babies. Similarly, it reduces the risk of herpes and urinary tract infections in adults. Furthermore, women who have had the procedure reported having less pain, and the risk of getting an infection was 50% lower. By removing this skin barrier, a woman will not get a UTI. Circumcision can help to prevent HIV and herpes.
Numerous studies have shown circumcision can help reduce the risk of painful urinary tract infections. It helps prevent a woman becoming pregnant. It can also help her to be more sexually active. A healthy woman is happier, healthier, and more confident. Her hormone levels can be controlled to make it easier for her to have a better and more intimate relationship with a man.
After a thorough review, the draft guidelines of circumcision prepared by CDC were developed. The CDC did NOT endorse the practice for all infant boys. Although the CDC recommends counseling on the health benefits associated with circumcision, it does NOT require that all males undergo the procedure. It does encourage the practice as a part of a healthy lifestyle. It is a personal choice, but there are many other reasons why it is popular.
The CDC notes that circumcision can prevent urinary tract infections. Having a man’s penis circumcised reduces his risk of contracting the infection. The CDC recommends circumcised men to have their penis circumcised no later than six months. This will prevent any potential complications. No matter the reason, the CDC recommendation will help families make the best decision possible for their child.
There are many benefits to circumcision for boys. Some people may choose to have their baby circumcised, but they should discuss it with their doctor to make sure it’s safe. There are risks associated with circumcision including bleeding and pain. Parents should weigh the benefits and risks carefully. It’s also important to remember, a circumcised infant will have fewer complications that a non-circumcised child.
