== Circumcised males ==
The circumcision procedure used by medical doctors in modern times is essentially the [[periah]] procedure invented by the rabbis in 140 A.D. and designed to inflict the maximum amount of irreversible harm to the [[penis]] to prevent the practice of [[epispasm]].

Circumcised males lack a [[foreskin]] and do not , so cannot have a [[preputial sac]]. Circumcised males may experience tight and painful [[erection]] and are more likely to have excess hair on the shaft of the [[penis]].

For the longer term, non-surgical [[foreskin restoration]] may help circumcised men to improve sensation.
