What Adults Teach Urologists About Hypospadias.

Knowledge regarding the impact of hypospadias in adults helps inform decision-making in childhood and potentially answers the question if repair should be delayed until during or after puberty. Earlier studies suggested that men with uncorrected hypospadias were either not aware of their condition or not bothered by it. Recent reports disagree and find that those with hypospadias are concerned by their difference and experience more penile dysfunction that men without this birth defect.
