== Issues with care of adult intact males ==
The AUA does not have a published policy or position statement regarding [[adolescent and adult circumcision| adolescent or adult circumcision]].
[[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.
The nature and function of the [[foreskin]] (prepuce) and its essential role in normal sexual intercourse has been known for many years,<ref name="cold1999">{{REFjournal

</blockquote>
[[Intact]] males who consult a urologist should receive any recommendation for [[Adolescent_and_adult_circumcision| adolescent or adult circumcision]] with extreme caution. Doing one's own research is advised so one does not become one of the another [[regret men| regret man]].
