  1. The Circumcision Discussion

    Joe12 replied to jmspeach's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Sorry to hear about your boyfriend. Prepuceplasti is a very good option when non surgical techniques have failed. In general I would try steroid cream a d stretching first and the prepuceplasti. It is...

  2. The Circumcision Discussion

    Joe12 replied to jmspeach's topic in Ob/Gyn

    That is so sad. I am sorry to hear about

  3. The Circumcision Discussion

    Joe12 replied to jmspeach's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Me too, are you

  4. The Circumcision Discussion

    Joe12 replied to jmspeach's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Thanks. :) It's hard to see it otherwise. And you've nailed it. Circumcision is a pernicious practice that is difficult to pry out of a society. It somehow prevents people from thinking rationally....

  5. The Circumcision Discussion

    Joe12 replied to jmspeach's topic in Ob/Gyn

    That certainly wasn't my intention. That is a whole different topic that deserves its own thread. I am sure there may be people just like you said and I won't add more than that so the thread...

    Joe12 replied to jmspeach's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I can't believe I missed this. We did talk about it recently here:

  7. The Circumcision Discussion

    Joe12 replied to jmspeach's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I want to reiterate that I am genuinely happy to answer questions and teach, as I am sure other here are. So post

  8. The Circumcision Discussion

    Joe12 replied to jmspeach's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I think that is what this board is for and I am very willing to share whatever information I have on this topic. I'll add that I think it's clear that there was no knowledge conveyed in my rhetorical...

    Joe12 replied to jmspeach's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Same question: If I surgically removed a infant's earlobes, and of course I would use ELMA or Lido so it wouldn't hurt, would you find that acceptable? Why or why

  10. The Circumcision Discussion

    Joe12 replied to jmspeach's topic in Ob/Gyn

    There has been a lot of discussion about those studies and the bottom line is that even if they are accurate the prevalence in the US does not justify the use. But let me ask you about the bold part....

  11. The Circumcision Discussion

    Joe12 replied to jmspeach's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I suspected this was the case. This seems to me to be a wider spread situation then our rates would suggest. That is to say many medical professionals tend to be against it but not to the point of...

  12. The Circumcision Discussion

    Joe12 replied to jmspeach's topic in Ob/Gyn

    They've been talking about that for two year now. The thing is that we have to be careful how we apply this information. Even accepting the risk reduction suggested, usually around 50%, that has to be...

  13. The Circumcision Discussion

    Joe12 replied to jmspeach's topic in Ob/Gyn

    That's good enough, I figured SE most people in CA wouldn't say below the MD line. That's good to hear though. Do the staff do any education to help dissuade people? It's not so much a question of...

  14. The Circumcision Discussion

    Joe12 replied to jmspeach's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I kind of meant state, but if you're not comfortable with answering that geographic region perhaps? You said that circumcision is running about the national average I just like to know where that is....

    Joe12 replied to jmspeach's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Just out of couriosity, what part of the country are you

  16. The Circumcision Discussion

    Joe12 replied to jmspeach's topic in Ob/Gyn

    One thing I wanted to point out with regards to AjaRN's post. First, I think that the answer to her question is mixed, much like what firstyearstudent's post says. Some do some don't and many feel it...

  17. The Circumcision Discussion

    Joe12 replied to jmspeach's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I don't think I agree with this. Premature retraction by Doctors and other medical staff, which is any retraction that occurs before the child knows he can do it himself, can cause tears and scaring...

    Joe12 replied to jmspeach's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Congratulations, what a lucky boy.

  19. The Circumcision Discussion

    Joe12 replied to jmspeach's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Ok, Ok. Like I said, I think we're all on the same page please don't be

  20. The Circumcision Discussion

    Joe12 replied to jmspeach's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I wonder about that too. Could you imagine the German Army adopting circumcision, a Jewish custom? I think not. There was actually an article on this BTW in the New Zealand Journal of Medicine a few...

  21. The Circumcision Discussion

    Joe12 replied to jmspeach's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I have read several stories about this program and they frequently print quotes from local men who describe circumcision as an invisible condom or otherwise imply complete protection. It's hard to...

  22. The Circumcision Discussion

    Joe12 replied to jmspeach's topic in Ob/Gyn

    The Academy has been doing this since 2007, these new reports didn't start that process. Two things I find courious, with such an efficient HPV vaccine, they keep investigating HPV and circumcision. I...

  23. The Circumcision Discussion

    Joe12 replied to jmspeach's topic in Ob/Gyn

    As do I. And as long as they limit it to adults, I have no personal problem with that anymore than getting a tattoo or a Prince Albert. I think it's weird but it isn't my decision. They are adults...

  24. The Circumcision Discussion

    Joe12 replied to jmspeach's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Until the 1970s consent was almost never obtained; it was done automatically. Couriously that only changed when a Jewish coupled sued the hospital because they could then have a proper Bris, somewhere...

  25. The Circumcision Discussion

    Joe12 replied to jmspeach's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I thought I'd provide some interesting links to this story. One thing I found personally interesting about all these stories was how the stories were spun in the US. While the BBC did print the...
