Penile Curvature

Posted by Joe on June 15, 1999 at 20:26:31
   I am an 18 year old male, and I have discovered over the years that my penis is curved to the left and upwards when it is erect.  I have not had intercourse, however there is no pain when masturbating.  However, the appearance of my penis and the possibility that it will interefere with intercourse have caused me to go into a sort of depression.  I am worried that girls will be turned off. i am considering surgery, it it safe, and what will it cost?

If you have had this curvature all your life, this may be a congenital problem.  Although, I think I would have a better idea if I could examine the penis an specifically feel for the a plaque.
  You may also  have a disease known as Peyronie
