Penis bends when erect?

Penile curvature is normal in most cases, because normally the penis will bend downward during erection. You don't have to worry too much. This situation generally does not require treatment and will not affect your sex life. However, if the penile curvature is more severe, it needs to be taken seriously and requires timely treatment. In fact, if the penile curvature does not affect your life, it does not need to be treated.

Penile curvature is the most common type of male genital disease. There are many reasons for penile curvature. In many cases, improper sexual life can also cause penile curvature in men. In short, the harm caused by penile curvature is self-evident. If you have penile curvature, you should go to the hospital for correction surgery as soon as possible to avoid unnecessary troubles.

In the normal state of the male young penis, the average length of the penis is 8.375 cm, and the average length of the penis when erect is 12 cm. Since there are many cases of penile curvature, the following explains the curvature caused by the penis being engorged and erect, which are mainly physiological, congenital, and pathological. During sexual excitement, the corpus cavernosum is engorged with blood, and the size of the engorged body is different, so the penis will bend in the direction of less blood. This is a physiological curvature and has no effect on sexual life. Congenitally short frenulum can also cause penile curvature.

However, pathological reasons such as trauma or infection of the penis, local scarring, excessive foreskin removal during circumcision, fibrosing cavernitis, and the growth of one or more fibrous nodules on the back of the penis can also cause curvature. Most of these situations require correction through plastic surgery to avoid affecting its normal function.

The normal erection angle of a man's penis should be

The angle is more than 90 degrees, that is, it is not pointing forward, but the distal end (glans) is tilted upward, so that the penis is close to the abdomen. This "excessive tilt" of the penis is not abnormal, on the contrary, it indicates good erection ability, which means that you can have a satisfying sexual life, which is much better than the "vertical forward" penis erection they desire.

Similarly, some boys worry that their penis will point forward and downward instead of downward after it becomes soft, which is unnecessary because the penis can point forward and downward or downward depending on the degree of its softness. Even for the same person, these two directions can appear at different times.

First, a preliminary impression is formed based on the medical history, clinical symptoms, and laboratory test results, and then the degree of penile erection is graded to determine whether impotence exists.

(Normal): Normal sexual desire, rapid erection response, erection lasting until ejaculation or disappearing after interruption of sexual intercourse, erection hard enough to be inserted freely into the vagina, good sexual pleasure, no significant change in the frequency of sexual intercourse, and normal erection response during masturbation.

Ⅰ° (mild): Sexual desire is basically normal, erection response is rapid, erection duration is unstable, sometimes it cannot be sustained, erection hardness is sometimes not enough to insert into the vagina, sexual pleasure is basically normal, frequency of sexual intercourse is less than before, and erection response during masturbation is basically normal.

II° (moderate): Decreased sexual desire, slower erection response, often unable to sustain erection, erection hardness often insufficient for vaginal penetration, diminished sexual pleasure, significantly reduced frequency of sexual intercourse, and a reluctant erection response during masturbation.

III° (severe): Sexual desire disappears, there is no erectile response, and therefore there is no question of sustained erection of the penis. The penis can be completely inserted into the vagina, but there is no sexual pleasure.

Diagnosis of erectile dysfunction should be based on

① How fast or slow is the penis erection response?

② Duration

③ Several parameters such as the hardness of the penis erection are used to make judgments. Any difficulty in these aspects can be considered as abnormal penis erection function.

In addition, it is important to understand whether the erectile dysfunction occurs suddenly (this is mostly caused by psychological stimulation and belongs to psychogenic impotence) or gradually worsens without being noticed (which means there is an organic problem), so as to help identify the type of impotence. Erectile dysfunction of Ⅰ° and Ⅱ° is mainly caused by psychogenic impotence, and may also be the early stage of organic impotence. Ⅲ° is mostly caused by organic impotence!
