Circumcision may lower a man’s risk for developing prostate cancer, a new study suggests.

During circumcision, the tissue covering the head of the penis (the foreskin) is removed. While it may reduce the risk of certain sexually transmitted diseases and penile cancer, circumcision is not without controversy and risks, including bleeding and infection. The American Academy of Pediatrics does not recommend routine circumcision. 

The study included almost 3,400 men. Of these, 1,754 had prostate cancer. Undergoing circumcision before first sexual intercourse was linked with a 15% reduced risk of developing prostate cancer. This finding is an association only and cannot prove cause and effect.

Exactly why, or if, circumcision has any effect on prostate cancer risk is not known. One theory is that some prostate cancers may be linked to sexually transmitted infections. The new findings are published in Cancer.

Researchers from the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle say that more study is needed to understand this relationship.
