== Regeneration of the foreskin ==
Recently [[Foreskin regeneration| there has been growing interest in regenerative medicine]] as a means to regenerate the human male [[foreskin]]. This is a completely different process from foreskin restoration by [[tissue expansion]] as described above. This option, unlike non-surgical foreskin restoration, would result in a true human male foreskin being regrown.
In early 2010, [[Foregen]], a non-profit organization dedicated to funding a clinical trial for the purposes of regrowing the human male foreskin, had been founded. A clinical trial had been scheduled for late 2010, but there were insufficient donations to follow through.<ref>{{REFweb

Foreskin regeneration is only theoretical as of 20232024. No foreskin has ever been regenerated. There is no assurance that foreskin regeneration would actually be successful, if attempted.
[[Foregen]] had announced its desire to conduct trials on human volunteers in April 2023, but it has not yet happened.<ref>{{REFweb
