"The American Urological Association, Inc.® (AUA) considers injection of fat cells for increasing penile girth (width) to be a procedure which has not been shown to be safe or effective.
The AUA also considers the cutting of the suspensory ligament of the penis for increasing penile length in adults to be a procedure that has not been shown to be safe or effective."

PURPOSE: Claims of superior sexual sensitivity and satisfaction
for uncircumcised males have never been substantiated in a prospective
fashion in the medical literature. We performed such a study to
investigate these assertions. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The Brief Male
Sexual Function Inventory (BMSFI) was administered to sexually active
males older than 18 years before undergoing circumcision. After
a minimum interval of 12 weeks after the operation, the survey was
again administered. The 5 domains of the BMSFI (sexual drive, erections,
ejaculation, problem assessment overall satisfaction) were each
given a summed composite score. These scores before and after circumcision
were then analyzed by Wilcoxon signed-rank testing. RESULTS: All
15 men who participated in the study between September 1999 and
October 2000 were available for followup. Mean patient age plus
or minus standard deviation was 36.9 +/- 12.0 years. There was no
statistically significant difference in the BMFSI composite scores
of reported sexual drive (p >0.68), erection (p >0.96), ejaculation
(p >0.48), problem assessment (p >0.53) or overall satisfaction
(p >0.72). CONCLUSIONS: Circumcision does not appear to have
adverse, clinically important effects on male sexual function in
sexually active adults who undergo the procedure.
