Are you one of the many men with a curved or ‘bent’ penis?
Yep, curved penises. You’ve maybe heard about them, maybe joked about them, but actually quite a few guys have this condition. And perhaps you are reading this because you do.
Many guys have a penis that is slightly curved, or perhaps even significantly curved. Maybe its even bent to the left or the right!
If so, you’ll find measuring your penis isn’t quite as simple as for those guys with an arrow straight penis.
Plus the other rather depressing news is that your penis actually will look smaller than a guy who has a straight penis.
And that’s simply down to a mixture of optical illusion and physics.
So Firstly What’s causing This Curved Penis?
Well, it turns out there’s more than one reason. One common cause is Peyronie’s disease, where scar tissue forms inside the penis, causing it to bend during erections.
What It’s Like To Have A Curved Penis
Then there’s congenital curvature – a fancy term for being born that way. Think of it like your own personal signature.
You probably started noticing it perhaps in your late teens. A noticeable curve each time you get an erection. And often the curve goes to the left or the right.
However when you’re young you don’t immediately think too much about it. In fact you probably assume all guys have a curved penis.
Then you discover porn, and realise, hold on! why have all these guys got big arrow straight dicks!
It’s then you know that you are a little bit ‘unusual’ with your curved penis.
Perhaps a sexual partner has made a comment about your ‘banana shaped’ dick. So…you’re now starting to begin to realise this isn’t necessarily how all penises look.
Welcome To The Bent Penis Club
Having a curved member can be a bit of a head-scratcher at first. I mean, we’re bombarded with images of straight, textbook-perfect penises everywhere we look.
But here’s the thing: normal can come in all shapes and sizes! Embracing your unique anatomy is key to owning your confidence.
Having said that, there are many guys who are uncomfortable with the curved shape of their penis.
In fact for many men it can be downright painful and can sometimes cause difficulty and embarrassment during sex.
Solutions For A Bent Penis
If the curve is causing discomfort or affecting your sex life, it’s totally okay to seek help. From medications to surgery, there are options out there. But remember, it’s your body, your choice.
There are Pubmed studies that show using a penis traction device can actually be helpful in reducing the curvature and assisting in straightening your penis.
Using a penis traction device is actually one of the simpler methods you can use at home to help with straightening out that penis.
In fact many men report their dick looks way bigger, once they start to straighen out that curve a bit.
And it will, because if you straighten anything out it will look longer!
Measuring Your Curved Penis
So back to the subject of measuring your bent dick.
Guys who have a straight penis can simply run a measuring tape right along their erect dick in a couple of seconds.
However, this isn’t always quite so easy when your penis is curved or bent in an unusual angle.
It’s often easier to get a length of string and try to ‘align’ it along your penis and it’s curvature.
Then, take the marked length of string and lay it along a measuring tape in order to get a more accurate picture of your exact measurement.
So, there you have it, guys. Curved penises: not as ‘straight-laced’ as you might think!
Remember, it’s not about fitting into society’s mold; it’s about celebrating what makes you, well, you! So, as long as it isnt causing undue discomfort or embarrassment, embrace your curve, and let your confidence shine through.
