This study tests whether certain chemicals in the environment (called endocrine disruptors) might be linked to hypospadias, a condition where a baby boy's penis opening is on the underside instead of the tip. By testing hair samples from mothers, researchers hope to find connections that could help prevent this condition in the future.
This study will test a yearly screening program for males who have had surgery to fix hypospadias (a birth defect where the urine opening is on the underside of the penis). It aims to understand how screening can help monitor long-term health.
This study follows boys having their first surgery for hypospadias (where the pee hole is not at the tip of the penis) to find out what factors lead to the best results. The goal is to help doctors better predict who will have a smooth recovery.
This study looks for genetic causes of differences in how a baby or child’s sex organs develop, including hypospadias. You may be able to join if doctors can’t find a reason using standard testing.
This study tests whether guided journaling (writing or dictating stories) can help parents cope and connect. It involves a 5-week journaling activity and one follow-up interview.
This trial compares two surgical techniques to fix a common birth defect where the opening of the urethra is on the underside of the penis. It tests whether a new method using a special glue is better than the standard method.
