Penile Prosthesis Insertion Usage

Written by FoundHealth.

Reasons for Procedure

A penile prosthesis insertion is for men wanting to obtain an erection, including those who have:

  • Not responded to other treatment options (eg, pills, suppositories, vacuum devices, injections)
  • Certain diseases (eg, diabetes , vascular disease)
  • Physical injuries (eg, spinal cord injury)
  • Certain surgeries that have made getting an erection impossible

This procedure has a success rate of about 90%-95% five years after insertion. Most men rate the erection as shorter than their natural one. A penile prosthesis does not change the sensation on the skin of the penis or the ability to reach orgasm or ejaculate.
