It’s natural to have some curvature to your penis. But penile curvature is a physical condition in which your penis curves when you have an erection. You may have had it for as long as you can remember, or it may develop slowly over time. Changes to your penis can affect you emotionally and even impact your relationship.
What is penile curvature?
Penile curvature is a curve in your penis when you have an erection.
Your body is unique, and not all penises are the same size, shape or appearance. Your penis may be straight when you have an erection. But it’s also natural to have some curvature — your penis may curve up, down or to either side. You may be born with penis curvature, or it can develop later in life. However, it’s a good idea to see a healthcare provider if:
- You have a curve in your penis that’s bothersome to you or your partner(s).
- Your penis hurts, especially while having sexual intercourse or masturbating.
- Your penis causes pain or discomfort for your sexual partner(s).
- These could be signs of a more serious condition.
What is normal penile curvature?
Penile curvature typically ranges from 5 to 30 degrees. A 5-degree curve in your penis looks like when the hands of an analog clock read 9:13. A 30-degree curve looks like when the hands read 9:10.
What are the types of penile curvature?
Types of penile curvature include:
Congenital penile curvature (chordee). A chordee is penile curvature that’s present at birth (congenital). Most people don’t notice they have congenital penile curvature until they go through puberty.
Peyronie’s disease. Peyronie’s disease is when scar tissue causes your penis to bend later in life. It’s unclear what causes Peyronie’s disease. Some medical researchers think it might develop after an injury to your erect penis, but most people with Peyronie’s disease don’t remember any specific injuries.
Symptoms and Causes
What are the symptoms of penile curvature?
- The main symptom of penile curvature is a curve or bend in your penis.
- Other symptoms may include:
- penis appearing to twist or rotate (penile torsion).
- Lumps in your penis.
- A loss of length in your erect (hard) penis.
- Loss of girth in your penis shaft. Your shaft may look like it has an indent or an hourglass shape.
- Difficulty getting or keeping an erection.
- Erection not being as hard as it used to be.
- Pain when you have an erection.
- Pain or difficulty while having sexual intercourse.
Penile curvature can also affect your mental health. It can affect you psychosocially (how other people affect your thoughts and emotions) and psychologically (how you think about yourself and your behavior). You may experience:
What causes a curved penis?
A slight curve to your penis is normal and somewhat expected. If you have a more pronounced curve, its cause isn’t always clear.
Healthcare researchers aren’t sure what causes congenital penile curvature. It may relate to one side of the penis being stretchier (more elastic) than the other.
Some researchers believe injuries to an erect penis may cause Peyronie’s disease. Injuries may occur:
During sexual intercourse with a partner. If your penis slips out of your partner, you may accidentally thrust it into the area between the genitals and anus (perineum). Some sex positions can also lead to a shift in your partner’s weight that causes your penis to bend, such as if your partner is on top or if you’re behind your partner .
Energetic or forceful masturbation.
Rolling over or falling onto your erect penis.
Obvious injuries aren’t the most common cause of Peyronie’s disease. Smaller, unrecognized injuries during regular masturbation or sexual intercourse may also cause penile curvature.
Is penile curvature contagious?
No, penile curvature isn’t a symptom of a sexually transmitted infection (STI). If you have penile curvature, you can’t spread it to another person.
Does penile curvature affect my fertility?
No, penile curvature won’t affect your ability to have a biological child.
FAQ
Diagnosis and Tests
How is penile curvature diagnosed?
A healthcare provider can usually diagnose penile curvature by:
- Reviewing your medical history.
- Asking questions about your symptoms and sexual history.
- Conducting a physical examination.
What tests will be done to diagnose penile curvature?
A healthcare provider may order a penile duplex Doppler ultrasound. This test uses sound waves to show how blood flows through the blood vessels in your penis. It can reveal scarring. They might also use a goniometer. A goniometer is a tool that measures the curvature of an erect penis.
Management and Treatment
Can penile curvature be fixed?
Your treatment options may include:
Traction therapy. Traction therapy uses an external device — such as a vacuum erection device or traction device to gently stretch your penis or bend it in the opposite direction of the curve. You may need to use the device for several months.
Medications. Your provider may inject a medication directly into your penis that helps break down scar tissue. They may also prescribe oral medications that you take by mouth that help improve blood flow to your penis.
Surgery. A surgeon may remove scar tissue or use stitches to reduce the curve. They could also recommend a penile implant. A penile implant is a medical device that allows you to have a straight, hard erection whenever you want. You can deflate the implant when you no longer want an erection.
Can you straighten penile curvature naturally?
You shouldn’t try to straighten penile curvature on your own. Without the expertise of a healthcare provider, you could make the curve worse.
Will penile curvature go away?
Penile curvature rarely goes away without treatment. In mild cases, your symptoms may go away on their own. But in severe cases, your symptoms may remain or slowly get worse.
