There are three types of '''{{FULLPAGENAME}}''' in common use that make it easier and relatively safer for medical doctors to profit by carrying out medically unnecessary, non-therapeutic infant [[circumcision]]. Infant circumcision is almost always carried out by the use of a circumcision device or clamp. They are useful because they reduce the risk of [[bleeding]]. | |||
The most common devices are the [[Gomco| Gomco clamp]], the [[Mogen| Mogen clamp]], and the [[Plastibell| Plastibell device]], however none of them are really safe and serious injury or even [[death]] can occur with any of them.<ref name="milos2022s03-14">{{REFweb | |||
