Q: Penis Question #2

asked by: Rockme2 on April 30th, 2004

Up until a couple years ago, when I would have an errection my penis stood straight up and would reach to my belly button. Now, my penis still gets as hard but for some reason it does not go straight up. When I tighten the muscels, it pulls to the side. Why is this happening all of the sudden. Again, I am still as hard, I still reach the same length but when I constrict the muscels, it pulls to the side now instead of going straight up. There is no bend, the tilt comes from the base. It is as if I am off center is all.
Thanks for the help.

Re:

Hi.

As you age, your penis follows a stage of erectile "heights", if you will.

When men begin puberty for instance, their penis will below significantly lowered. As a man reaches mid/end puberty, the penis will stick straight out- and most will even go higher. As you begin to age, your penis will return to a lower position when you get an erection.

Any questions?
