Artificial Penile Bodies-From Kama Sutra to Modern Times

The most common motive associated with foreign artificial bodies on the penis is sexual or erotic in nature and that is to enhance the pleasure of female or male sexual partners during sexual intercourse. Most of the reports involve members of low economic groups like gang members, soldiers, drug addicts, sailors, labor workers, and prisoners. Men suffer no serious side effects after insertion, although fixed beads can cause rupture of condoms. For women, the beads can cause abrasions and a few days of postcoital vaginal pain. Penis implants and inserts and other penis augmentation devices are potentially dangerous to both men and women, and of questionable value in bringing pleasure to either, and should be discouraged.
