What are receding gums? Receding gums are gums that have pulled away from the surface of the tooth and crept away, exposing the root of the tooth. There are several different causes for receding gums that can result in sensitivity or even tooth loss. Because the gums help support the teeth, receding gums should not be taken lightly.
The Benefits. As an adult, two of the most significant benefits of your circumcision will be hygiene and sexual performance. Many (if not most) uncircumcised men assert that the hygienic benefit is at best questionable, but on this I can say from experience that they are wrong. The inner foreskin is a mucous membrane, and secrets fluids.
Female circumcision/genital cutting Introduction. Female circumcision usually involves the cutting or removal of the clitoris. This area of the genitals is very sensitive because it contains the most nerve endings. Genital cutting is a painful practice that is often poorly carried out, and endangers the health and lives of millions of girls, particularly in Africa.
