Hypospadias is a common abnormality of the urogenital tract with a wide range of variety in its presentation and severity. The primary aim to correct hypospadias is to restore normal penile function and appearance. Although it can be corrected at any age, early correction between the 6 and 18 months of life is recommended. The functional and cosmetic outcomes have been very-well presented in the literature, although the aspects of sexuality and fertility of hypospadias repair in the long term are vague. In this narrative review, we aimed to gather the data around the sexuality and fertility outcomes of hypospadias repair and acknowledge urologists and parents of boys with hypospadias who will have a correction surgery about future sexual and fertility concerns.
