M25, Does my penis look weird or damage? Peyronie's perhaps?

My penis is very small when it’s soft. Tried to get erect for this photo, but it’s not fully hard. In full erection it looks bit bigger and I think bit straighter, but pointing to left. This is maybe 70-80% hard.

Does the shape look strange? Is it perhaps Peyronie or something else?

Curves are normal. Don’t worry about it. If you want to make your penis look bigger, trim your pubes.

Nothing wrong there, pal. Lots of guys are small when soft. How big are you when fully hard? Agree with xsevenx, trimming your pubic hair makes everything look bigger. I keep mine well trimmed or shaved.

looks healthy to me, I agree about trimming or shaving. I shave smooth and it looks a lot better not being covered by a mound of hair

Curves are normal, as others have said

You don't say how old you are. Is the curvature something you have observed recently - or has it always been there?

25 and I am not sure if I had it always, but it has been there for many years atleast. I think I noticed some bending when I was in early teens after few years of masturbation. I discovered fap myself with no advice so I did lot of heavy handed fap through clothes since age of 11-12.

I managed to make my dick smaller after period of mental stress and too hard fap few years ago through when rubbing and pressuring it when it was limp...

It is both rare and difficult to change the size your penis or damage it by masturbating

I think you need some reassurance and some help from somebody close. Is there anybody that you can talk to in person and explain how you are feeling?

If you are in the UK there is a national sexual health helpline which is confidential

Astrolabe90 is right. Masturbating won't change the size of your penis no matter how much you use it. Don't think you've got anything to worry about man

Are you circumcised? Just wanted to mention one thing I noticed is I was small when soft as well when I was uncircumcised (and had phimosis as well). Once I got circumcised to fix the phimosis, noticed that while I'm still small when soft, it's no longer as small as it used to be with the head always exposed now.

Sorry I'm late to this thread. I had a curvature as well. I can't open the picture link you posted so I'm not quite sure the degree or shape of your curvature. I think most experts say that if the curvature interferes with sexual activity or if the curve is more than 30 degrees you should consult with a doctor. There are two main types of erection curvatures. 1) Peyroine's curves are the most common. These curves are "new" that occur usually in adulthood (usually in the 40's or after), not in the teens. Nearly all men with Peyroine's had a straighter erection at some point during adulthood then it starts to curve and the curve can change over time. They are usually caused by some type of injury to the penis and small scar tissue forms that the penis tissue can't stretch around (thus the curve). Peyroine's curves also usually curve sharply at a single point along the shaft of the penis (at the scar site) so the bend is somewhat hinge like. From what you've described (noticing it first in your teens and it not changing the past few years), it might be another type of curve called Congenital Penile Curvature or CPC. 2) CPC curves are almost always noticed for the first time during puberty and remain the same degree of curvature from late puberty through adulthood (curve severity really doesn't change from late puberty/early adulthood). Left curves and downward curves are the most common directions for CPC curvatures. The curve of the erection in CPC looks different from a Peyroine's curve as CPC curves are uniform along the entire shaft, so it looks more like the curve in a banana rather than a hinges like bend in Peyroine's. If the curve is 10 degrees or less these are fairly normal and don't negatively effect sexual function. But if your curve is closer to 30 degrees or more you may want to have it checked by a healthcare provider. So I'd consider that you might have CPC if it's been the same severity the past year or two and if it curves uniformly along the shaft. I had a curvature that curved both left and downward that was than 60 degrees and had it surgically corrected in my mid-20's. Happy to share my journey if you are considering correction.

Also, it's not uncommon for men with CPC to be "growers" rather than "show-ers". So they often look smaller than average when flaccid/soft but are often above average in size when fully erection. Just another thought based on your original comment.
