Add section.
'''{{FULLPAGENAME}}''' are formerly [[intact]] men who, as an adolescent or adult, voluntarily elected to submit to [[Adolescent and adult circumcision| adult circumcision]].
Regret men usually had thoughtful and loving parents who actively protected the legal and [[human rights]] of their son to [[physical integrity]] and the enjoyment of a whole and complete [[intact]] [[penis]] with a functional [[foreskin]]. Such parents properly reserve the decision regarding [[circumcision]] for the boy to make for himself.

== Reasons for regret ==
After their [[adult circumcision]], regret men commonly complain of the discomfort of an exposed [[glans penis]], dryness, and of extreme loss of [[Foreskin sensitivity| sexual sensation]] after the excision of the nerve-laden, protective [[foreskin]], which has been known to be erogenous tissue for decades,<ref name="winklemann1959">{{WinkelmannRK 1959}}</ref> and come to regret their decision to be [[circumcised]].
==Options for treatment of lost foreskin==
The options for treatment are few. [[Surgical foreskin restoration]] has been tried but is no longer recommended. Men, seeking to undo the unfortunate results of their circumcision, may opt for non-surgical [[foreskin restoration]], which uses [[tissue expansion]] to elongate the residual shaft skin to form a new foreskin. It is claimed that it restores about 80 percent of the lost sensation.
Other regret men are awaiting the hoped for success of [[Foregen]] to regenerate a missing [[foreskin ]] as a salamander regenerates its lost tail, however this is not yet a proven procedure.
==Other classes of regret men==
Other classes of regret men include the [[regret dad]], the male [[regret doctor]] who regrets the circumcisions he formerly performed, and [[cut (circumcised) dads with intact sons]].
