A Chinese man frustrated at being single cut  off his own penis then, in agony, decided to cycle to a hospital for  treatment.

When he arrived doctors told him they  couldn’t help save his manhood and ordered him to cycle back home to get the  penis before he could be treated.

When Yang Hu, 26, eventually arrived back at  the hospital with the severed member, doctors told him that it had been without  blood for too long, and it was impossible to reattach it.

Yang’s friends said that he had been  increasingly depressed about the fact that since moving to the city he could not  find a girlfriend.

What was worse, they said, was that he was  doing such long hours in a clothing factory in Jiaxing, in Zhejiang province in  east China, that he doubted he would ever have a chance to meet a  woman.

His depression grew so bad that after  returning home after work at 9pm on October 27 to his rented room he had  suddenly decided to cut off his member as there was no use for it anyway, and  believing it would stop him thinking about getting a girlfriend.

Incredibly he managed to cycle to the  hospital, then cycled home again to collect the severed member and then back to  the hospital.

His friends criticised doctors saying that  had they provided the man with an ambulance he might have managed to get home  quicker and his private parts could have been saved.
