Zhang (2024) reported the cost of each [[circumcision]] surgery in [[China]] to be US$270-US$540,<ref name="scmp2024" /> so the practice of circumcision in [[China]] may be driven more by money than medical necessity.<br />

<div>'''{{FULLPAGENAME}}''' is the term applied to the creation of a foreskin for those men who have lost their [[foreskin]] to [[circumcision]] by the application of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine to regeneration of the lost foreskin.<br />
<br />
{{FULLPAGENAME}} remains experimental and under development in the Spring of 2024 as no foreskin has yet been regenerated. <br />
<br />
{{FULLPAGENAME}} would use a different process from [[foreskin restoration]] as has been [[Epispasm| practiced since ancient times]].<br />
<br />
{{FULLPAGENAME}} has been promoted by [[Vincenzo Aiello]] of Rome, Italy, who has created an Italian charitable organization, [[Foregen]], to advance the development of foreskin regeneration.<br />

Some features are a mood of depressed, sad, hopeless, discouraged or "down in the dumps". Decreased energy, tiredness, and fatigue are common. Frequently there may be thoughts of death, suicidal ideation, or suicide attempts. These thoughts range from thoughts that other persons would be better off if the person were dead, to transient but recurrent thoughts of committing suicide, to actual specific plans to commit [[suicide]].<ref name="DSM-IV"/><br />
<br />
== Circumcision's contribution to depression ==<br />
Typically, non-therapeutic infant [[circumcision]] is carried out on a helpless infant or small child who has no choice in the matter. Circumcision is the amputation and excision of functional tissue with numerous physiological functions which are irreversibly destroyed. the lost functions include protective, immunological, sensory, and sexual functions.<ref>{{REFweb<br />

<br />
When the child becomes older and comes to understand the nature of circumcision and of his irreversible loss for which there is no cure, he may become extremely angry regarding his injury and loss. The anger becomes repressed and contributes to depression.<ref>{{REFweb<br />

<div>The '''{{FULLPAGENAME}}''' is a 2023 addition to the websites that purport to provide information and advice on the care of the normal, natural, [[intact]] [[penis]], complete with [[foreskin]]. The Website is for adult [[foreskinned]] males only and does not provide information on the [[care of intact, foreskinned boys]].<br />
<br />
The Website is attractive to the eye and contains many illustrations, however, it does ''not'' provide citations or references for the sources of the information and advice it offers, so the offered information and advice cannot be verified.<br />
<br />
The sponsors of the Website may have thought it unnecessary to include information on the [[Foreskin| nature]] and [[Functions_of_Foreskin| function]] of the foreskin, since the expected readers are [[foreskinned]].<br />
<br />
The Website, in an egregious display of insensitivity to the feelings of its [[intact]] patrons, uses the outmoded, offensive, Biblical epithet "[[uncircumcised]]" to describe their condition.<br />
<br />
The sponsors and purpose of the {{FULLPAGENAME}} are not identified. The existence of the {{FULLPAGENAME}} may be an indication of the burgeoning number of [[foreskinned]] men in the [[United States]] and their desire for information.<br />

<hr />
<div>"'''{{FULLPAGENAME}}'''" is frequently claimed by [[circumcised]] men but usually is a lie. Almost all conditions of the [[foreskin]] may be conservatively treated so do not require the extreme treatment of foreskin [[amputation]], which is what circumcision does.<br />
==Discussion==<br />
There are very few medical conditions that mandate a [[circumcision]] and they occur very rarely. [[Penile cancer]] is a rare cancer, which occurs mostly in the elderly, is one such indication. Irreparable traumatic injury to the foreskin is another rare indication.<br />
<br />
# '''Deformed or malformed foreskin'''. A foreskin so deformed or malformed that it does not function properly may be removed by circumcision.<br />
# '''Traumatically injured foreskin'''. A foreskin so traumatically damaged foreskin that cannot be surgically repaired is a valid medical reason for circumcision.<br />
# '''Diseased foreskin.''' A foreskin that is diseased may be a valid indication for circumcision. Some diseases that qualify are malignancy, lichen sclerosis, [[Balanitis#Diabetic_males| yeast infection in men with diabetes]], and recurrent [[balanoposthitis]].<br />
<br />
Circumcision normally is a non-therapeutic elective procedure that is frequently carried out for religious, or social reasons. Investigation usually reveals that the male who "had to be circumcised", may have had some condition, that could be satisfactorily treated conservatively, but actually ''elected'' or chose to be [[circumcised]]. <br />
<br />
The foreskin has numerous [[Foreskin#Physiological_functions| physiological functions]] that cease to function after circumcision.<br />
<br />
The [[foreskin]] evolved to protect the [[penis]] from injury and [[infection]], so the [[foreskinned]] penis actually is normally quite healthy.<ref>{{FleissP HodgesF VanHoweRS 1998}}</ref><br />

Professor Flechsig published numerous books, articles, and other publications in German on a wide variety of subjects. In accordance with IntactiWiki policy they will not be listed here.<br />
<br />
==Flechsig's views are disproved==<br />

It was not until a century later that medical science started to question his views. Talbert et al. (1976) measured the rise in cortisol and cortisone in [[circumcised]] infants and found an increase in "stress".<ref>{{REFjournal<br />

[[Kanwaljeet J. Singh Anand| Anand]] & Hickey (1987) published a magisterial article in the ''New England Journal of Medicine'' that conclusively settled the issue. The authors stated:<br />
<br />
<blockquote><br />
Numerous lines of evidence suggest that even in the human fetus, pain pathways as well as cortical and subcortical centers necessary for pain perception are well developed late in gestation, and the neurochemical systems now known to be associated with pain transmission and modulation are intact and functional. Physiologic responses to painful stimuli have been well documented in neonates of various gestational ages and are reflected in hormonal, metabolic, and cardiorespiratory changes similar to but greater than those observed in adult subjects. Other responses in newborn infants are suggestive of integrated emotional and behavioral responses to pain and are retained in memory long enough to modify subsequent behavior patterns.<ref>{{REFjournal<br />

<br />
==Conclusion==<br />
Flechsig's error condemned millions of infant girls and boys undergoing surgery to acute [[pain]], [[trauma]], and [[shock]] for over a century and that practice is still ongoing today. For example, open heart surgery on infants was done without anesthesia until 1987.<ref>{{REFweb<br />
