dc.description.abstract It is now indisputable that male circumcision performed in a medical facility protects against HIV. But there is also evidence that the protective benefits of male circumcision are undermined by 'risk compensation', or a lack of restraint when it comes to sexual behaviour. KARL PELTZER, LEICKNESS SIMBAYI, MERCY BANYINI and QUEEN KEKANA undertook two studies - among the first of their kind - to investigate whether counselling could limit this phenomenon among both medically circumcised and traditionally circumcised men. en
