Please quote the full sentence in which you read it.

Note: 'I read this on the internet.'

You might be able to find a context to use it, but it would not be a common one.

That phrase can be used in questions.

How has having a big family affected your life?
How has having HIV changed your behavior?
Has having children changed your financial state?

Is it used for past references? Is there anything like "Have having"? "Has having both. Have you ever landed in a situation When you thought that you had only one normal penis(sorry but that is what I read on internet, there is a guy who has two penis, so he was interviewed by media)". So now I have given you context. Please clear my doubts. Can it be used in any kind of question!

It's present tense, so unlikely to be used for past references. In the interview, he may have had two penises in the past, but the question is about it has affected him to the present day.

Ok. Like "How has having this job affected your daily routein?". "Has having this car made you put some more effort to earn some more money". We cannot say "How has having this job has affected your daily routein". Right? Past form has to be used.

The correct spelling is "routine".
