Long foreskin obstructing urine flow
Long foreskin obstructing urine flow is a bizarre complication reported in a test of the Prepex circumcision device.[1]
The Prepex device works by clamping the foreskin so that it is starved for blood, dies and falls off. In two cases observed during testing in Kenya the necrotic foreskin interfered with urination. This can occur only when medical personnel use the Prepex device to do a circumcision so it is appropriately classifiei as iatrogenic.
Circumcision has been promoted by the corrupt World Health Organization to prevent female to male HIV infection, however two large scale population studies have found circumcision to be totally ineffective at preventing HIV infection:
- Mayan et al. (2021) carried out a massive empirical study of the male population of the province of Ontario, Canada (569,950 males), of whom 203,588 (35.7%) were circumcised between 1991 and 2017. The study concluded that circumcision status is not related to risk of HIV infection.[2]
- Morten Frisch & Jacob Simonsen (2021) carried out a large scale empirical population study in Denmark of 855,654 males regarding the alleged value of male circumcision in preventing HIV and other sexually transmitted infections in men. They found that circumcised men have a higher rate of STI and HIV infection overall than intact men.[3]
No association between circumcision status and risk of HIV infection was found.
