I have had a curvature since puberty - about 8-10 years. I cant recall any particular event that might have caused it. In
flaccid state, there is no curve but if its a soft or semi erection, there will be a bend and it would change the flow of piss. The curve is between 15-30 degrees from what i can tell in erect state - it is a lateral (left direction) curve.
My erections are alright and not as great as they used to be but they dont always remain hard on their own, I need to constantly stimulate the penis. otherwise they become semi hard in a few seconds. Also, I have infrequent morning wood - another concern of mine.
I had no idea what Peyronies or
congenital curvature was until a month ago and just assumed that curves are normal. I also noticed recently that the left side of my penis doesnt get enlarged or filled up with as much blood as the right cavernosa apart from the bend. The right side definitely is bigger if i were to look at it by dividing my penis right in the middle. My left kinda looks like a skeleton to the muscular right. I apologize for the crap analogy.
I checked my
girth against the averages from studies on google and it turns out my
flaccid girth is a little above average but my erect
girth is like in the 30th percentile. My right side (the one without the bend) also feels spongier in semi erect state while the left side feels hard as if i am touching a bone.
Also the base of my penis looks narrower than the shaft. Is that normal?
Questions:
1] Can
congenital curvature cause the left cavernosum to be less "filled up" with blood? Can peyronies?
2] If its peyronies, what are my options? Its been 8-10 years since i noticed the bend - any chance to regain the
girth in
chronic stage or is it only possible in
acute stage?
3] I dont think the curvature has increased over the years. I might be wrong and it may have increased a couple of degree but definitely not much.
Does having Peyronies necessitate an increase in curvature over the years if left untreated? or can it be like my case where there is none or little curvature change.
4] Could the left cavernosum problem be something else - like blood pressure, diabetes, systolic peak blood flow velocity or anything else?
5] I dont have a hard indentation or palpable thing like many others but it is a little hard. From what I read I am not completely sure if ultrasound would be able to confirm if I have Peyronies - what other methods are there for confirmation?
6] I mostly read about
acute phase treatment but is there any treatment that can work for a case like me if I have it. 10 years+, probably calcified?
I am planning to get my health check up done from a physician including blood pressure, diabetes and testosterone levels. Anything else I should get done?
I am planning to visit a urologist and get a doppler ultrasound. What specific questions should I ask him apart from these?
I have tried to research on my own but there is even less information about
congenital curvature online than peyronies and things like uneven blood flow between two cavernosums or if there is even such a thing!
Most people I have read about with
congenital curvature had normal penis apart from the curve and didnt have what I am talking about with their cavernosums or
girth or the smaller penis base.
And if anyone knows any good doctors in upstate NY please let me know.
I dont know who to talk to about any of this in IRL so I hope you guys reply.
