First penis transplant recipient soon to be a father

In from Ify Chiemeziem….

Last December, A South African man who got his penis amputated to save his life from a circumcision gone wrong got a new penis, thanks to a team of expert doctors and a donor.

After the first time surgery, lots of doubters, even believers, wondered if his new paddle would work.

Now, the 21-year-old penis recipient is announcing to the world that his girlfriend is four months pregnant!

The surgeons who did not declare the surgery successful until March also said recovery would take two years. But then, it seems a quick recovery took place, for the recipient has produced a baby with the transplanted tool.

Well, it looks like he certainly had a speedy recovery, since the pregnancy allegedly happened au naturale!
