Good question, i've often wondered about this. Googled it and didn't find a hint of an answer?

Whatever it is, i bet it's not a simple matter for us Ken butts!!!

Yes i have had it done twice. It is a proceedure that is done in the operating room. They have three way of getting to the prostate. One is through the penis. The second is under the testicals between there and the rectum. and the last and most diffculted it through the stomic. That requires your gastro doctor to be present. I just had it done in September. And all is well.
