Introduction
This leaflet sets out to answer some of the questions teenagers and young adults have about circumcision. It covers the basics of what circumcision is, why it is performed, and how to determine if a circumcision is necessary or desirable.
Other topics include the function of the foreskin, alternatives to circumcision, and the relationship between circumcision and body image. Written by Helpdesk staff, in language specially suited to its target age group, this leaflet has been thoroughly checked for accuracy by our Medical Advisor.
