→Issues with care of intact males: Add text.
Intactiwiki is aware of a steady flow of inquiries and complaints from [[foreskinned]] males who have consulted unnamed urologists for one reason or another. It appears that some urologists omit information on conservative, foreskin preserving treatment and immediately recommend circumcision.
The inquiries usually seek to validate information provided to the patient by the urologist. Patients with a narrow foreskin may be told that well proven [[stretching]] to generate [[tissue expansion]] won't work, so they will have to receive a [[Adolescent and adult circumcision| circumcision]] to treat non-retractile foreskin.
Reports suggest that some urologists tend to omit information on the nature and function of the [[foreskin]] from discussions with [[intact]] patients.
