Abstract
Results of questioning young parents--582 by direct questioning and 624 by questionnaires--about their knowledge of male circumcision are presented. 61% of those directly questioned and 24% of parents polled by questionnaire did not know what circumcision means. The older the parent and the higher their professional qualifications, the greater their knowledge. Reasons for circumcision were divided into four categories: surgical, hygienic, prophylaxis of cancer and cosmetic. Health education about genital hygiene and circumcision is necessary.
