A man, who had his penis rebuilt after a botched circumcision, has created medical history by becoming a dad.

Mike Moore had his penis amputated when he was 7-years-old after it got infected during the routine surgery and has now become the proud parent of son Memphis with his wife Heather, the Mirror reported.

The 30-year-old, from Mississippi, US, said that the one thing he wanted most was a family and he didn't think it was going to happen, to have kids, to have a wife who loves him for who he is, which put him in a deep depression.

The surgeon took skin from Moore's thigh to make the organ and the couple, who are now trying for a second child, turned to artificial insemination using his sperm.
