What is hypospadias and how can it impact your child?

Hypospadias, a common condition where a boy's urethral opening is on the underside of the penis, affects 1 in 200-300 newborn boys. Surgery, recommended between 6 to 18 months, shifts the opening to the tip, correcting any curvature. Prompt intervention ensures better function and appearance, helping children lead normal, healthy lives.
