A UTI is easier to treat than meatal stenosis. And even those claiming UTI prevention admit the data only supports this "benefit" for the first few years of life. Why would you sign yourself up for a much bigger risk of much worse problems to avoid a treatable infection?

It claims that is a finding someone came up with, but it offers a good thorough explanation of why that finding is unlikely to be accurate. Studies done in America for example are influenced by a lack of education about the proper care of foreskin, which may cause these UTIs
