Perinatologists against Routine Circumcision
We are perinatologists at the Perinatal Center, Philippine
Children's Medical Center. Since 1988 we have not been doing circumcision at
birth and have
advised against circumcision of adolescents inspite of parents pressure and
peer pressure.
We try to convince the parents that circumcision is no longer necessary according
to epidemiologic studies.
