In this article, you can find information about the types of happiness rods, their features, prices, and other frequently asked questions.
What Are the Types / Models of Happiness Rods?
Happiness rods are medical devices developed for men with erectile problems. There are basically three main models:
- Single-Piece Bendable Penile Prosthesis
- Two-Piece Penile Prosthesis
- Three-Piece Penile Prosthesis
Each model has its own unique advantages and disadvantages. It is important to consult your doctor to determine which prosthesis is suitable for you.
What Are the Features of the Single-Piece Bendable Penile Prosthesis?
Single-piece bendable penile prostheses, as the name suggests, consist of a single piece and can be bent manually. Some features of this prosthesis include:
- Provides easy use due to its simple structure.
- Durable and long-lasting.
- Does not create a spontaneous erection sensation as it is continuously in a rigid state.
- An economical option.
What Are the Features of the Two-Piece Penile Prosthesis?
Two-piece penile prostheses offer a more natural erection experience. The features of these prostheses are as follows:
- Consists of two parts: cylinders and a pump.
- The pump is placed in the scrotum, and liquid is pumped into the cylinders to achieve an erection.
- Provides a more natural appearance and sensation.
- Relatively easy to use but requires a learning process.
What Are the Features of the Three-Piece Penile Prosthesis?
Three-piece penile prostheses are the most advanced and natural-looking prostheses. Their features include:
- Consists of three main parts: cylinders, a pump, and a reservoir.
- The pump is located in the scrotum, and the reservoir is placed in the abdominal area.
- Offers the most natural erection sensation.
- Usage is more complex compared to other models.
- High cost but provides the most natural result.
How is the Happiness Rod (Penile Prosthesis) Installed?
The installation of the happiness rod is typically a surgical procedure performed under general anesthesia. The steps of the procedure are as follows:
- The patient is prepared for surgery and general anesthesia is administered.
- The penis and scrotum are sterilized.
- The surgeon makes incisions in the areas where the prosthesis will be placed.
- The parts of the prosthesis are inserted and connected.
- The incisions are closed with stitches and the healing process begins.
The recovery time after surgery is generally a few weeks. During this period, it is important for the patient to be careful and follow the doctor's recommendations.
What Are the Prices of the Happiness Rod (Penile Prosthesis)?
The prices of happiness rods can vary depending on the selected prosthesis model and the clinic performing the procedure. Generally, the factors that affect the prices include:
- Prosthesis model (single-piece, two-piece, three-piece)
- The experience and expertise of the doctor performing the surgical procedure
- The city and location of the clinic or hospital
- Additional services and post-operative care
For the most accurate price information, it is advisable to contact your doctor or our clinic.
Can the Happiness Rod (Penile Prosthesis) Be Seen Externally?
When the happiness rod is installed, it cannot be seen externally. Since the prostheses are placed inside the penis, they provide a natural appearance from the outside. Especially the two and three-piece prostheses offer a more natural appearance when there is no erection. This way, there is no discomfort in daily life.
Can Men with a Happiness Rod Have Children?
Men who have a happiness rod can have children as they solve their erectile problems during sexual intercourse. However, the happiness rod does not affect sperm production or quality. Therefore, couples who have difficulty conceiving naturally may need to seek additional treatments. In any case, it is important to discuss this topic in detail with your doctor.
