"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."

| The
association between lack of male circumcision and risk for HIV infection:
a review of the epidemiological data.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Whether male circumcision reduces the
risk of acquiring human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection remains
controversial. STUDY DESIGN: As there have now been a number of
studies conducted that have examined this issue, we undertook to
review their findings. Thirty epidemiological studies identified
in the literature that investigated the association between male
circumcision status and risk for HIV infection were reviewed. RESULTS:
Eighteen cross-sectional studies from six countries reported a statistically
significant association, four studies from four countries found
a trend toward an association. Four studies from two countries found
no association. Two prospective studies reported significant associations,
as did two ecological studies. In studies in which significant associations
were demonstrated, measures of increased risk ranged from 1.5 to
8.4. The groups in which positive associations were found included
sexually transmitted disease (STD) clinic and hospital patients,
outpatient clinic and HIV screening clinic attenders, long-distance
truck drivers, and general community members. CONCLUSION: Potential
sources of error, assessment of causality, implications of the findings,
and future research needs are discussed. Because a substantial body
of evidence links noncircumcision in men with risk for HIV infection,
consideration should be given to male circumcision as an intervention
to reduce HIV transmission.
