The American Urological Association: Wikify.
The [[American Urological Association]] (AUA) is the [[medical trade association]] for the American urological industry. It has the primary function of advancing the business interests and financial well-being of its members. The AUA is considered to be a source of pro-circumcision [[bias]].
A search for "circumcision" on its website produces 755 hits, so male [[circumcision ]] is a major business interest of the urological industry.
=== AUA position statement ===
Although obstetricians, pediatricians, and family doctors obtain most of the revenue from non-therapeutic infant circumcision, the AUA has provided a promotional position statement on infant [[circumcision]].<ref>{{REFweb
[[Intact]] males who consult a urologist should receive any recommendation for [[Adolescent_and_adult_circumcision| adolescent or adult circumcision]] with extreme caution. Doing one's own research is advised so one does not become another [[regret men| regret man]].
