{{Construction Site}}
Australia, like other English-speaking countries, once had a rather high rate of non-therapeutic neonatal circumcision of male infants, however Australia now has a very low rate of non-therapeutic neonatal circumcision.
==History==
The incidence of non-therapeutic neonatal circumcision in Australia approached that of the United States in the 1930s through 1960s.
The ''Australian Paediatric Journal'' issue of June 1970, published three articles critical of non-therapeutic infant circumcision.<ref>{{REFjournal
