Circumcision in men — This is an operation that is known from ancient times. Previously, it was made exclusively from religious considerations. Now, in addition to the issues of faith, it is used to treat some congenital and acquired pathologies.


Why do male circumcision

Why do male circumcisionInitially, the circumcision had only religious meaning. In this regard, in different nations it was produced (and produced) at different ages. So, the Jews spend it on the eighth day of the life of the baby, and Muslims — at 13 years old. Men operating can be at the time of their faith, regardless of age.

For medical purposes, circular excision of the extreme flesh (this is the so-called circumcision in scientific) are carried out in the following cases:

  1. Phimosis, or narrowing of the opening of the extreme flesh. This pathology may be a consequence of congenital development abnormalities. Possible acquired, or scar, phimosis. In this case, this is a complication of inflammatory damage to the head of the penis and / or extreme flesh: Balanita and Balanopostitis.
  2. Excessive extreme flesh at which it even during the maximum erection does not expute the penis head. It is possible to achieve this only by pulling it out.
  3. Sometimes circumcision is carried out with premature ejaculation. After the operation, the skin of the penis head becomes more coarse, its sensitivity is reduced. This leads to an elongation of sexual intercourse and a decrease in the severity of premature ejaculation.


Pluses of circumcision in men

In addition to the fact that the operation eliminates the reasons for which it is produced, it also has other advantages. Circumcision in men in different data leads to a decrease in the set of risks:

  1. The likelihood of inflammatory diseases of the genital organ is reduced by about 10 times.
  2. Reduced risk of HIV transmission from women to men. This is due to the root of the skin of the penis head, in connection with which microcracks appear on it less often.
  3. The probability of developing penis cancer decreases. Smegma accumulating between head and extreme flesh, carcinogen. Circumcision eliminates the conditions for its cluster, thereby reducing the risk of oncopathology.

However, in the medical community there is no single opinion about the prophylactic properties of circumcision. So the only real plus of the operation is to eliminate phimosis, because of which the gender health suffers.


Methods of cutting operation in men

The most common cutting method in men — Method of two cuts. Extreme flesh is inscribed at first, and then below, keeping the bridle. Then remove the skin back and produce a second incision parallel to the first. The resulting skin ring is dissected and removed, and the edges of the wound are crossped with a solid material.

Complications and consequences of circumcision in men

Complications and consequences of circumcision in menDespite the simplicity of the operation, errors in its course or the characteristics of the patient's body can complicate the postoperative period.

Too tight gauze roller can cause necrosis of a penis head. In this case, urine delay is also possible.

Bleeding during the operation can cause the need to impose special seams. Hurry when carrying out this manipulation sometimes leads to damage to the urethra.
