There is no disease or infection present at the time of surgery. If we were to apply this principle in trying to prevent other potential problems, then we would be pulling healthy teeth to prevent cavities. Clearly, this principle is irrational. UTI is treatable with antibiotics. If good medical practice requires the least intrusive form of effective treatment, then circumcision is not justified.
Circumcision is a radical surgical treatment.
Most of these arguments would be applicable to any claimed medical benefit. Circumcision advocates can only make the dubious claim that an unlikely or rare condition will be less likely to occur in the circumcised male. This benefit is sufficient justification for many people partly because circumcision is a surgical procedure that is done on someone else . The answer is also evident from the fact that intact male adults are not generally seeking to have themselves circumcised. Upon closer inspection, it becomes clear that the flawed reasoning of supposedly reputable studies has contributed to the confusion on the circumcision issue.
