Circumcision in Newborns: Cultural Practices and Global Trends

Not all boys are circumcised when they are born. Circumcision is a cultural and religious practice that is performed on newborn males in some parts of the world, but it is not universally practiced. In some countries, such as the United States, circumcision is a common practice, while in other countries, such as many European countries, it is less common or even rare.
