Regret men: Difference between revisions

Regret men usually had thoughtful and loving parents who actively protected the legal and [[human rights]] of their son to [[physical integrity]] and the enjoyment of a whole and complete [[intact]] [[penis]] with a functional [[foreskin]]. Such parents properly reserve the decision regarding [[circumcision]] for the boy to make for himself.

1. Regret men may have been reared in a society where most men are [[circumcised]] and they chose to follow the perceived norm.  

2. Other regret men may have been persuaded by an ignorant and selfish girlfriend or ex-girlfriend to get [[Adolescent and adult circumcision| circumcised]].

3. Others may have consulted a rapacious urologist for a minor medical condition who recommended the most expensive procedure  ([[Adolescent and adult circumcision| circumcision]]), instead of conservative [[foreskin]]-conserving treatment.<ref name="masood2005">{{REFjournal

After their [[adult circumcision]], regret men commonly complain of the discomfort of an exposed [[glans penis]], dryness, and of extreme loss of [[Foreskin sensitivity| sexual sensation]] after the excision of the nerve-laden, protective [[foreskin]], which has been known to be erogenous tissue for decades,<ref name="winklemann1959">{{WinkelmannRK 1959}}</ref> and come to regret their decision to be [[circumcised]].

The options for treatment are few. [[Surgical foreskin restoration]] has been tried but is no longer recommended. Men, seeking to undo the unfortunate results of their circumcision, may opt for non-surgical [[foreskin restoration]], which uses [[tissue expansion]] to elongate the residual shaft skin to form a new foreskin. It is claimed that it restores about 80 percent of the lost sensation.
