| Question: | The problem I have is a curved penis. I am almost 18 and it curves about 3 cm to the left. I' m also uncircumcised. Can my problem be helped by a device or operation? I don' t want to go out with girls as I don' t want them to know my problem. |
| Answer: | It is not unusual for the erect penis to have some curve in it, and this rarely causes any problem.
Even with the degree of curvature you describe, you would still be able to have sex successfully, and I doubt that any gitlfriend would be particularly concerned about the degree of curvature of yout penis at that time—presumably she would be rather preoccupied.
The fact that you are not circumcised will have nothing to do with the curvature.
My advice would be to ignore the problem for the time being, but if you find after some sexual experimentation that it causes some discomfort, and you wish to take things further, ask your general practitioner to refer you to a urologist, who will examine you and decide if an operation is appropriate.
