Scientists have successfully grown penises in a laboratory and say they could be tested on humans within five years.
The organs would be used to help men who have suffered a serious injury to the region, had surgery for cancer or are suffering from a congenital abnormality.
The work is being carried out the Wake Forest Institute for Regenerative Medicine, North Carolina.
Scientists there are now assessing engineered penises for safety, function and durability, The Guardian reports.
It is hoped the US Food and Drug Administration will give the green light for testing on humans within five years.
Earlier this year, the same team of researchers declared they had successfully grown vaginas in a laboratory and implanted them into four teenage patients.
The new organs were given to women born with MRKH - Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser (MRKH) syndrome, a rare genetic condition in which the vagina and uterus are underdeveloped or absent.
The treatment could also potentially be applied to patients with vaginal cancer or injuries.
it is being funded by the US Armed Forces Institute of Regenerative Medicine, in the hope soldiers with battlefield injuries can be helped.

There are so many ways to interpret that sentence.
Is that a banana in your pants or a....
King Missile Ping.
Yes plaid is one size larger than ludicrous size.
Not to be confused with “Shorty’s Resturant, Chattanuga,
Tennessee”.
how soon before one is used on a female in an adadictamy procedure?
An “over-under”?
Where soldiers really need help is for testicular replacement. Once they lose that hormonal balance, they’re in trouble. The VA sucks helping those guys out and most endocrinologists don’t seem to know that to do with them.
In this age of the metrosexual, can we find a way to get some men to “grow a pair”
They come in all colors!.............
That will put truth to “Go F yerself” LOL
Under The Scotsman’s Kilt
A Scotsman clad in kilt left the bar one evening fair
And one could tell by how he walked he’d drunk more than his share
He staggered on until he could no longer keep his feet
Then stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street.
chorus:
Ring ding diddle diddle i de o
Ring di diddle i o
He stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street.
Later on two young and lovely girls just happened by,
And one says to the other with a twinkle in her eye
You see yon sleeping Scotsman who is young and handsome built
I wonder if it’s true what they don’t wear beneath their kilt.
Ring ding diddle diddle i de o
Ring di diddle i o
I wonder if it’s true what they don’t wear beneath their kilt.
They crept up to the sleeping Scotsman quiet as could be
Then lifted up his kilt about an inch so they could see
And there behold for them to view beneath his Scottish skirt
Was nothing but what God had graced him with upon his birth
Ring ding diddle diddle i de o
Ring di diddle i o
There was nothing there but what God gave upon his birth
They marveled for a moment then one said we’d best be gone
But let’s leave a present for our friend before we move along
They took a blue silk ribbon and they tied it in a bow
Around the bonnie spar that the Scot’s lifted kilt did show
Ring ding diddle diddle i de o
Ring di diddle i o
Around the bonnie spar that the Scot’s lifted kilt did show
The Scotsman woke to nature’s call and stumbled toward a tree
Behind a bush he lifts his kilt and gawks at what he sees
Then in a startled voice he says to what’s before his eyes
He said, “Lad I don’t know where you’ve been but I see you won first
prize”
Ring ding diddle diddle i de o
Ring di diddle i o
He said, “Lad I don’t know where you’ve been but I see you won first prize”
What happens if there’s a recall?
You mean like if it’s the wrong color?...........
***Heck, just get one of each implanted,
preferably close together...***
When thing worked out well for me at work, my supervisor said I was “luckier than a dog with two d**ks”.
Like the original didn't get me in enough trouble, as it was, when I was younger.
My nanometer-sized junk will be able to be fixed.
I'm hoping for 4 nanometers next time.
