Tips to help with deciding on Circumcision

Circumcision is a highly personal decision that your and your partner must make together. Here are some tips to help you make the right decision for your child.

            •           Make an appointment to talk about circumcision.

            •           Talk with other parents who have had the procedure performed on their children.

            •           Watch a circumcision being performed, either in person or on videotape.

            •           Be sure to consider your religious beliefs and cultural attitudes.
            •           Reduced Sexual Enjoyment: The foreskin contains highly sensitive nerve endings which help to increase lubrication and enjoyment during sexual intercourse.

            •           Increased Hygiene Care after Birth: Circumcision may actually increase the amount of personal care you give your child after birth. The wound must be carefully cleaned and bandaged to prevent infection.

Some parents may also be against circumcision as they view the practice as a type of mutilation, instead preferring to let their child make the decision whether or not they would like to be circumcised when they are older.
