-The Go standard library does not have types directly corresponding to PostgreSQL `uuid` and `numeric`. 3rd party libraries are available but pgx does not use them by default to avoid external dependencies.
-
-However, pgx supports both the ability to register new data types and to override the default handling of currently supported types. There are packages available to use `github.com/gofrs/uuid` and `github.com/shopspring/decimal`.
-
-Import the following packages:
-
-```go
-import (
-	pgtypeuuid "github.com/jackc/pgtype/ext/gofrs-uuid"
-	shopspring "github.com/jackc/pgtype/ext/shopspring-numeric"
-)
-```
-
-Then register the data types for your connection. If you are using a connection pool this should be done in the `AfterConnect` hook.
-
-```go
-dbconfig, err := pgxpool.ParseConfig(databaseURL)
-if err != nil {
-	// handle error
-}
-dbconfig.AfterConnect = func(ctx context.Context, conn *pgx.Conn) error {
