Hm. The body would register a circumcision as an injury. Wolverine doesn't have scar tissue either. But baby teeth fall out according to a biological clock, that wouldn't be seen as an inury.

i dont think it would work like that
its not like the bodys various subsystems maintain awareness of how and why they interoperate
your body isnt really aware of its amputated parts regardless of whether or not theyve come out naturally - thats why they dont grow back
complete regeneration would mean that wolverines body must have some kind of schema keeping track of what body parts he SHOULD have - and a fairly generic schema since he aged beyond being a pubescent teen
if its something inherent and biological then it wouldnt matter if he had been circumcized - but the schema developed after infancy then circumcision might have stuck
