One of the aspects of [[intactivism]] that are most ignored by the medical community is the existence of a large community of men restoring their foreskin through non-surgical methods. [[Foreskin restoration]] was first done by the Jewish people approximately 100 years before the Christian era,<ref>{{REFjournal |last=Hall |init=RG |author-link= |last2= |init2= |author2-link= |url=http://www.cirp.org/library/restoration/hall1/ |title=Epispasm: circumcision in reverse |journal=Bible Review |date=1992-08 |volume= |issue= |pages=52-7 |accessdate=2022-06-17}}</ref> <ref name="schultheiss1998">{{REFjournal

}}</ref> and was the reason why the original brit milah [[Brit Milah]] was made more radical, turning it into [[Periah|brit periah]].
Interest in foreskin restoration reappeared during the world war World War II, when Jewish men were often identified by the absence of [[foreskin]].<ref name="schultheiss1998" /> Surgical methods were attempted.<ref name="tushmet1965">{{REFjournal

</ref> Since then, new methods have been developed through experimentation, and shared through internet in online forums.
The [[AAP]] and the [[CDC]] make no mention of foreskin restoration in their circumcision policies. The general attitude of the American medical community towards restorers is one of skepticism. Restoration is discounted as a placebo, and restorers are accused of being obsessed and psychologically unstable. A tireless advocate of [[circumcision]] and major critic of [[foreskin restoration]] is [[Brian J. Morris]].
After being part of an interview for a magazine article, this editor found out that the same magazine had already published an article on the topic some years ago, fact that was probably ignored by the interviewer. While I mentioned to the interviewer how the AAP systematically ignores foreskin restorers in their policy statement, not realizing that restorers are the "unhappy customers" of this unnecessary procedure, this comment unfortunately was also cut from the printed interview. Perhaps it was considered too confrontational, or the interviewer did not realize the importance of this contrast.
When media outlets share articles about foreskin restoration on social media, the general comments also often include disbelief and disrespect. In spite of 33 35 years of freely sharing information on non-surgical foreskin restoration, most people think it's some kind of new fad.
This experience with the interview and subsequent observation of comments on social media inspired us to compile an extensive list of articles. Furthermore, since web pages are somewhat volatile and tend to disappear, we have stored each article in PDF format for archival purposes.

== Articles Medical journal articles about foreskin restoration ==
1. Non-Surgical Foreskin RestorationThe publication of articles in medical journals about foreskin restoration has been slight. The stretching procedureancient practice of [[epispasm]] was revived by laymen. BUFF. (1982?) It bears testimony to the harm, injury, and damage done by medical doctors who practice [[circumcision]], so little has been printed in medical journals about [[File:fs01.pdfforeskin restoration]]. Consequently, the typical medical doctor is entirely ignorant concerning foreskin restoration.
