H. L. Rosenberry from Menominee, MI, was an M.D.[a 1]
In 1894, he published a paper "proving" that circumcision cures urinary and rectal incontinence.
After noting the long foreskin on a boy with incontinence of urine and faeces, he concluded "that the child should be circumcised without delay, as that might account for the dribbling of the urine”.[1]
Eleanor Self (2016) notes that Dr. Rosenberry’s recounted the way in which circumcising a young boy cured his incontinence. He then makes it clear that he is “at a loss to explain the process but simply relate[s] it as fact.” By using his own experiences to explain the merits of circumcision, Rosenberry helps with our understanding of how medical professionals of the time made the case for routine neonatal circumcision.[2]
