Sky News reported:

Microplastics have been found in penises for the first time, with scientists raising questions about their impact on sexual health.

A study, published in the science journal Nature, assessed the tissue from six men who had undergone surgery treating erectile dysfunction.

Apparently, men have been strapping plastic rods to their penises with elastic bands to help to maintain their erection and over time the plastic has seeped into their penis tissue.

According to scientists, microplastics are already found in many other parts of the body and may constitue a health hazard.

Australian ED expert Bill "Showdog" Heslop told FNN:

Using plastic rods to maintain an erection is neither practical nor safe so I don't recommend it.

My First Nation friends use fat rendered from dead wombats as an erection enhancer, which is a much healthier solution to the problem, but has unfortunately contributed to a decline in the wombat population.

Hey Muriel! Fetch me a tinnie. I'm parched.
