Just the Facts about Newborn Circumcision
The American Academy of Pediatrics states: "Existing scientific evidence demonstrates potential medical benefits of newborn circumcision; however, these data are not sufficient to recommend routine neonatal circumcision." The Council on Scientific Affairs of the American Medical Association calls for parents to be given very full information on non-circumcision, circumcision, and especially about pain and pain control so that parents may make informed choices about circumcision and the use of pain control if a boy is to be circumcised
Routine circumcision of babies in the United States did not begin until the Cold War era. Circumcision is almost unheard of in Europe, Southern America, and non-Muslim Asia.
