How old do you need to be circumcised



Circumcision is generally related to the severity of circumcision and phimosis, as well as the wishes of the individual, and is not directly related to age.

If a newborn baby is circumcised, it can be temporarily observed, which is relatively common. If the circumcision still exists after the age of 2 years, it can be handled surgically in accordance with the wishes of the parents. If there is recurring glans phimosis or urinary tract infection, etc., it is recommended that surgery be performed as early as possible.

For circumcised children, circumcision can also be done after the penis has matured. This is because if the child is young, pain tolerance and cooperation are relatively poor, and the incision may open or bleed after the operation due to the child’s lack of cooperation or crying.

Adults who are circumcised are advised to seek timely medical advice and choose a treatment plan under the guidance of a doctor.
