A cut above the rest of it!

A latest research claims that circumcision has more benefits than earlier thought. Not only does it lower risk of HIV infection but also cuts risk of herpes and human papillomavirus!

Sex rarely gets a mention without stirring up a controversy, perhaps because no other subject captures the imagination of so many – across cultures and across geographies. But what has possibly caused the greatest noise around the world, apart from the issue (rather the non-issue) of virginity, is the alarming incidence of HIV and AIDS, a killer disease that inflicts millions and kills thousands across the globe each year. While sex itself has been the subject of much deliberation, thanks to the numerous beliefs (cultural and religious), associated with it, there is another controversial area which has the world divided about its pros and cons, with many who swear by it, and those who oppose it and dismiss it, and that is – circumcision. Circumcision for long has been touted as a potential prevention tool against the spread of HIV as well as other Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STDs); but a new study claims that circumcision might, in fact, diminish the chances of contacting two more common incurable STDs. The study (two randomised controlled trials), in which 5,534 men were involved in Uganda, claims that those who were circumcised as adults were 25 per cent less likely to get the herpes infection and as much as 30 per cent less likely to catch human papillomavirus (HPV) than their uncircumcised peers. It should be noted that researches conducted earlier have concluded that circumcision can reduce by as much as 60 per cent a man’s chances of catching an HIV infection.
