@PSSD_warning @2k_115 @NYMag @Foregen Part 2: In theory, with adult stem cell therapy, Foregen should make the result be as if the man undergoing the procedure were never cut as an infant in the first place. Everything should be present afterward: nerve endings, frenulum, and Meissner’s corpuscles.

@PSSD_warning @2k_115 @NYMag @Foregen Part 1: I hope @Foregen replies. I’m no expert, and this is all academic unless Foregen succeeds. Their goal is to regenerate the foreskin rather than surgically grafting regular skin tissue or stretching the remaining skin until there is coverage, as in foreskin restoration.
English

Over the past few years, doctors and scientists have been quietly tiptoeing into the field of foreskin-restoration surgery, drawn by growing demand, the proliferation of gender-affirmation care (which has helped surgeons hone their skill in reshaping genitals), and circumcision itself falling out of favor.
In the United States, circumcision reached its zenith in the mid-1960s, when an estimated 80 percent of males had their foreskins cut off. More recently, however, the popularity of the procedure has dropped to lows not seen in recent history: 49 percent of male infants were circumcised in 2022. That some physicians are now helping to reverse a procedure their peers long touted as a boon for patients’ health is raising fresh tensions over the merits of circumcision and emboldening men to challenge whether the procedure’s toll is greater than doctors have typically recognized.
Though the majority of restorers still opt to take matters into their own hands, procedures — and the growing body of research into the mechanics and merits of uncircumcision — suggest professional help is finally arriving.

As circumcision rates in the United States reach an all-time low, some men who hate their snipped penises are going to great lengths to re-create foreskin. Most try manually stretching their skin, while others are turning to experimental surgery. thecut.com/article/the-me…

@ReviewsPossum My phone doesn’t always autocorrect “bevause” into “because” when I make a typo, even though it should.

I hate how autocorrect doesn't fix words that are obviously wrong.
It should just know that when I accidentally tap the g instead of the h when writing "the" on my phone, it should correct it. "Tge" is not a word.

I cant be the only one out here who gets triggered when autocorrect "fixes" a correctly spelled word into what it thinks I mean Specifically I don't know why it believes that I would prefer to write about valves over calves
