A social media influencer, Joel M, has spoken openly about a deeply personal health condition that he said left him feeling isolated for most of his life.
Joel was born with hypospadias, a congenital disability that affects the development of the p*nis and can make urination, s*xual function, and fertility are more difficult.
Although the condition affects an estimated one in every 300 boys or roughly 15 million men worldwide, Joel said very few people ever talk about it because of the stigma surrounding men’s intimate health.
