Conservative Treatment Of Primary Phimosis In Adolescents -- By Michel Beaugé MD - Quimper, France. -- Introduction - Being in charge for over ten years of the routine examination of college freshmen as part of the preventive medicine programme of the university, I diagnose a significant number of phimoses among older children and young adults. Conservative Treatments -- Phimosis is a name given to the condition where the foreskin is unretractable. We must distinguish normal (physiological) unretractability from abnormal (pathological) unretractability.

Raising Our Sons Intact -- Support from circumcised fathers of intact sons The Fathering Advisor -- Question -- My son is unable to retract his foreskin at age six. The largest opening that can be achieved is about 3mm. We have consulted three specialists and all have claimed he has phimosis and should be circumcised. All of these doctors do not circumcise at birth. By searching Nexis, I have found that doctors in England perform a stretching operation that often corrects this problem. The ones I read about were at Addenbrook Hospital in Cambridge. I have received no response to my letters to them. Is there someone you can tell me about in the U.S. that can help or possibly someone in Europe who could point me in the right direction? -- Read the answer provided by the Fathering Advisor.
