Q: I am a 33 years old male, got married recently and have been diagnosed with impotence due to low level of testosterone (1.06 ngm/ml). I want to know about prosthetic surgery for this problem. Is it successful? Are there any side effects later on? Where it is done in India? I am totally frustrated. Please help me.

A:Before you go in for prosthetic surgery, you need to have thorough investigations to determine the cause of impotence. Since your testosterone levels are low, you should see an endocrinologist who will guide you further. Prosthetic implants are usually the last resort in the treatment of impotence.
