Unlike preparations for other surgeries, it is not customary to test baby boys for their blood clotting ability prior to the excision and [[amputation]] of the [[foreskin]]. In ancient times, another measure was taken to "protect" e.g. Jewish infants who did not have blood clotting abilities: The fact that circumcision on Jewish infants regularly led to [[Death deaths]] is shown by the fact that the Talmud of Babylon, Yebamoth 64b,<ref>[http://www.come-and-hear.com/yebamoth/yebamoth_64.html Babylonian Talmud: Tractate Yebamoth]</ref> provides for when the first two (or three) sons have died after circumcision, subsequent sons no longer need to be [[circumcised]].

The vast majority of circumcisions performed in the [[United States]] are medically-unnecessary, non-therapeutic circumcisions performed on newborn infants in which there is no [[medical indication]] or disease of any kind present. Such circumcisions expose the infant boy to all surgical risks without any compensating health benefit.

Newborn infants, which weigh only a few pounds, have very little blood in their tiny bodies. Loss of only a slight amount of blood can and does cause ~~exsangination~~ and ''hypovolemic [[shock]]''.<ref>{{REFweb
