Implante de Pene: La solución para la disfunción eréctil?

El implante de pene: la última opción para la Disfunción Eréctil, o la mejor opción?

Lea el Artículo En Inglés


Todos los días veo a hombres que presentan a mi clínica con la preocupación de que su erección está “más débil”. Repito:  TODOS LOS DIAS.  La disfunción eréctil, o impotencia sexual, es bien común y ocurre en 40% de los hombres mayores de 40 años.  Muchos hombres que sufren de impotencia sexual llegan a mi clínica luego de haber investigado en el internet acerca de sus opciones de tratamiento.  Estas opciones incluyen: medicamentos orales, inyecciones, terapia de vacío (Vacuum), terapia de shock, inyecciones de plasma, células madres y el implante de pene.  Desafortunadamente, algunas de estas alternativas aún se consideran experimentales y no son recomendadas por la academia de Urología Americana o la Sociedad de Medicina Sexual.  Por lo tanto, es difícil saber cual es la mejor opción para cada individuo si no conocemos los beneficios y riesgos de cada terapia.

Why is my penis getting shorter?

A very common concern for men of all ages is:SIZE.   I often see men who come in to my office concerned about the size of their penis.  Sometimes they are originally being seen for a completely unrelated complaint, such as urinary problems secondary to an enlarged prostate (BPH) or interested in a vasectomy.  Then, all of a sudden, the question comes up:  “Hey doc, now that I am here, I wanted to ask you about one more thing. I have noticed that my penis is shrinking…” or ” My penis is getting shorter”… And you can imagine the rest of the conversation.
