Hypospadias is one of the most common congenital malformations affecting upto one out of every 150 newborn male babies. Caring for children with hypospadias requires a lot of commitment from the family as well the health care team managing these children. Hypospadias foundation is a venture to disseminate thorough & credible information and to provide personalized medical care to children suffering from Hypospadias and Disorders of Sex Development (DSD- erstwhile called Intersex Disorders).

At Hypospadias foundation, care includes help in medical, psychosocial and financial aspects. Our team has managed over 400 babies with Hypospadias and DSD in last 4 years and numbers have steadily improved consequent upon our focus towards holistic care for children with Hypospadias. This has reflected also in form of better surgical outcomes for such children.

In last two decades, the management for babies with Hypospadias & DSD has been refined and outcomes have improved tremendously. A lot of research has gone towards elaborating the etiology and pathogenesis of Hypospadias & DSD and recent focus has been on the role of environmental pollution and its role in interfering with male sexual organ differentiation. We just finished a large scale study in finding out the community incidence of hypospadias in India as a first leg of our clinical research.

Our goals are to reach out in community by increasing awareness and also contribute to research and education in the field of Hypospadiology.
