The Phimosis Foundation International is an educational charity. Its mission is "[t]o provide clear, stigma-free information, compassionate support, and accessible resources to individuals affected by phimosis, empowering them to make informed choices about their health and well-being."[1]
The website of Phimosis Foundation International appears to have been created in September 2025.
Phimosis Foundation International is advised by a three-member Independent Clinical Advisory Board.[2] All members of the Advisory Board are from nations that do not advocate non-therapeutic circumcision. No member of the Board is from the United States.
Phimosis Foundation International urges conservative, foreskin-conserving treatment for most cases of phimosis. Circumcision is advised only for:
- When you have suffered long-term or severe phimosis.
- Recurrent infections.
- Foreskin scarring (e.g., from Lichen Sclerosus).
- When all other treatments have failed or aren’t possible.[3]
