Penile implants are surgically inserted into the penis and scrotum and typically reserved for men who have suffered long-term with erectile dysfunction that wasn’t aided by medicine or lifestyle changes.
The most common penile implant is a three-piece device consisting of a fluid reservoir that sits within the pelvis, two tubes that replace the erectile tissue in the penis, and a pump located in the scrotum. Squeezing the pump brings water from the reservoir into the implant to inflate it and produce an erection. The tubes can be deflated when desired.
