1. Higher risk of urinary tract infections. Risk = 1 in 20.

2. Deceases complications of urinary tract infections: kidney failure, meningitis and infection of bone marrow.

3. 1 in 400-900 uncircumcised men will get cancer of the penis.

4. Is associated with balanitis (inflammation of the glans), posthitis (inflammation of the foreskin), phimosis (inability to retract the foreskin) and paraphimosis (constriction of the penis by a tight foreskin).

2. Improved hygiene.

3. Much lower risk of urinary tract infections.

4. Much lower chance of acquiring AIDS heterosexually.

5. Virtually complete elimination of the risk of invasive penile cancer.
