Question

My child has hypospadias. Doctor, how much will the treatment cost for a child with hypospadias phallic type, and how long will hospitalization be? Thank you for clearing this up!

Answer

The optimal age for treating hypospadias is between 3 to 18 months, which is the early stage of sexual psychological formation. Generally, surgery can be performed from one year old onwards. It is recommended to undergo surgery before the age of 6. The risk of recurrence is low, and the success rate of a single surgery is high. If there has been an external genital surgery recently, it is generally advised to wait more than 6 months before scheduling the next surgery. These are the recommendations for this question, and I hope they are helpful to you. Wishing your child a swift recovery!
