We complete penile frenuloplasty predominantly for adults.
Penile frenuloplasty/frenulectomy are surgical procedures that involve the removal or modification of the penile frenulum, a small band of tissue that connects the underside of the penis to the glans (head) of the penis. The frenulum can be too tight or short, causing pain during sexual intercourse or difficulty with foreskin retraction.
Frenuloplasty or frenulectomy may be considered for individuals who experience discomfort, pain, or limitations during sexual activity due to the tightness or shortness of the penile frenulum. These procedures aim to address these issues and improve overall sexual comfort and function. You do not need a referral for this procedure. Learn more about frenulectomy, here.
Many men struggle with erectile dysfunction, a condition characterized by the inability to achieve or sustain an erection for sexual intercourse. In Australia, it’s estimated to affect approximately 1 million men. The causes are diverse, encompassing both physical and psychological factors. It could also be an indicator of underlying medical conditions such as heart disease or diabetes.
At Healthy Haven Family Clinic, we take a holistic approach in addressing this issue. We offer both physical treatments such as medications, and psychological treatments including counselling and cognitive behavioural therapy. Our aim is to help men overcome this issue and improve their overall sexual health.
Maintaining good sexual health is paramount to men’s overall well-being. Our clinic offers a range of sexual health services, including testing for sexually transmitted infections (STIs). These screenings are crucial in timely diagnosis and treatment of conditions like gonorrhoea, chlamydia, HIV, and syphilis.
Apart from testing and treatment, we also focus on prevention. We provide advice on safe sexual practices, vaccinations against Hepatitis B and HPV, and other preventive measures. We believe in a comprehensive approach to sexual health, addressing all aspects from prevention to treatment.
We also prioritise prostate health, a critical aspect of men’s wellness, at our clinic. It is recommend that men aged 50 years and over should be made aware of prostate cancer. After discussing the risks and benefits with your GP, we can help you make an informed decision on whether you wish to have a blood test to screen for prostate cancer.'
Other prostate-related issues we manage include benign prostatic hyperplasia, a condition that affects a significant number of men above the age of 40. From screening to treatment, our aim is to ensure the optimal health of your prostate
