The age at which the [[foreskin]] can easily retract varies widely: some boys are retractable in their late toddler years, but many are well into teen years before the membrane dissolves fully.

Either way, as caregivers to an [[intact]] boys, we must continue to promote correct standard of care."<ref>{{REFweb
