Testicular Prosthesis in Prostate Cancer


A testicular prosthesis is a sac filled with silicone gel, similar to that which is used in breast implants, that is inserted into the scrotal sac after the removal of the testicles for the purposes of prostate cancer hormone therapy. Men may feel more comfortable around their partners or around other men in situations such as changing or showering in a locker room with the presence of the testicular prosthesis.
