A Texas man is suing the maker of VirilisPro, claiming the male enhancement drug turned a sexual encounter into a nightmare.
Adrian Carter, 29, took the pill early in the morning last year and later on, during sex, he had "significant pain and observed a large quantity of blood squirting out of his penis onto the sheets, walls and mirror," ABC News reported Thursday, citing Carter's lawsuit.
Carter rushed to the emergency room where doctors had to "deglove" his penis, meaning the skin was removed to repair his urethra, the New York Daily News reported Friday.
"It was pretty horrific to view the pictures," attorney Melissa Moore told ABC News. "I know it sounds unusual. ... He was young and healthy and on no other meds at the time he took the supplement."
Following the surgery, doctors warned Carter he might never be able to father kids or have an erection again, Courthouse News Served reported Tuesday.
However, some experts aren't buying Carter's story, saying he was "overly dramatic" when describing his symptoms.
Grady Memorial Hospital's chief of urology Dr. Jeff Carney told ABC News that Carter's allegations are "the most absurd thing I have heard of in my life."
Carter probably injured his penis under different circumstances but was too embarrassed to tell doctors the truth, Carney said.
Carter is seeking punitive damages as well as medical expenses.
VirilisPro claims to be the "ultimate male enhancer" and brags it's made from "only natural ingredients to prevent harmful side effects."
The company did not immediately respond to Business Insider's request to comment.
