Global Circumcision Rates: Prevalence of Uncircumcised Men

Worldwide, an estimated 30–40% of males are uncircumcised. Prevalence varies dramatically by region, religion, and culture: near-universal in some Muslim-majority and Jewish communities, rare in parts of Europe, East Asia, and Latin America, and intermediate in the United States (~40% uncircumcised). Rates are dynamic, influenced by medical guidelines, cultural shifts, and access to procedures.
