Circumcision position statement

The ACNM has adopted a position statement that endorses the performance of non-therapeutic circumcision on newborn infant boys by certified nurse-midwives.[1]

A review of the position statement reveals numerous issues with inaccurate and/or outmoded information.

  • The statement lists unprovable "potential benefits" instead of actual provable benefits.
  • The statement cites bias filled papers from Brian J. Morris and his colleagues.
  • The statement inaccurately reports the incidence of circumcision at 77 percent, but Jacobsen et al (2021) report it to be in "a long term declining trend" and only 52.1 percent in 2016.[2]
  • The statement provides outmoded and inaccurate information regarding protection from HIV.
  • The statement cites the American Academy of Pediatrics 2012 position statement on circumcision that was allowed to expire in 2017 due to its huge number of deficiencies.
  • The statement fails to provide essential information on the protective, immunological, sensory, and sexual functions of the foreskin which are destroyed by circumcision.
  • The statement fails to state that parental surrogate consent is limited to diagnosis and treatment of disease, which cannot include non-therapeutic infant circumcision.[3]

    Quote: Based on a careful consideration of the relevant evidence, arguments and counterarguments, we conclude that medically unnecessary penile circumcision-like other medically unnecessary genital procedures, such as 'cosmetic' labiaplasty-should not be performed on individuals who are too young (or otherwise unable) to provide meaningful consent to the procedure.
