Jungenbeschneidung in Deutschland - eine Bestandsaufnahme translates into English as Circumcision of boys in Germany - an inventory.
Circumcision of boys in Germany - an inventory was the title of a symposium on 8 May 2017 at Heinrich Heine University.
The event was organized on the occasion of the fifth WWDOGA by the Clinical Institute for Psychosomatic Medicine and Psychotherapy[1] at the University Hospital Düsseldorf, the association MOGiS e.V. and the section Child and Adolescent Psychosomatics in the German Society for Psychosomatic Medicine and Medical Psychotherapy (DGPM).[2]
“ | The foreskin is the most sexually sensitive part of the penis. The removal, especially in infancy and childhood, always represents a serious violation of genital integrity, which can lead to persistent physical, sexual or psychological complications and states of suffering. In Germany alone, about 400 young boys are admitted to hospitals every year, even after circumcisions that have not been carried out for medical reasons, with sometimes severe complications. With our conference, we would like to provide information on this and open up a platform for a factually sound and respectful dialogue with all interested parties on this controversial topic. – Prof. Dr. Matthias Franz, Co-initiator of the conference (University of Düsseldorf)[3] |

Final receivables
The symposium ended with the adoption of final demands, which are divided into two areas,[4] the medical and the legal field. In the scientific press spectrum, the final demands were promptly disseminated and received.[5][6][7]
The text of the closing claims is reproduced below for documentation purposes:
Medical Area
Doctors should not treat without indication and always regardless of origin, religion and sexual orientation and for this reason should not perform medically indicated circumcision, especially not on patients unable to give consent.
More sensitivity and more knowledge about the psychological consequences of circumcision of male children are needed so that we can better diagnose them. This requires extensive research.
The establishment of therapy and counselling services for those directly and indirectly affected should be promoted.
Educational initiatives on anatomical and medical facts, risks and long-term consequences by health institutions such as the BZgA are necessary,[8] sexological institutes and medical associations.
What is needed is the financing of a well-founded, comprehensive expert advice for parents wishing to circumcise their son, which have the well-being of the child, his sexual self-determination and his later psycho-sexual development in the center of the consideration.
In accordance with the applicable legal situation, comprehensive and documented information on all possible risks as well as objective documentation of findings must be carried out before each circumcision is carried out.
Evidence-based research on acute and long-term physical and long-term psychological consequences of foreskin removal, also with regard to the transfer of conventional masculinity.
