I'm a bit worried because my penis bends to the left when it's fully erect. It kinda seems like it affects its length. I'm not really keen on surgery, so I'm wondering if there's any other way to straighten it out.

A bent penis, also known as Peyronie's disease, can be addressed through non-surgical methods, including oral medications like vitamin E, potassium para-aminobenzoate (Potaba), and pentoxifylline; topical creams containing verapamil or interferon; and physical therapy techniques like penile traction therapy (PTT) using devices like the Penimaster or Vacu Devices, which can help straighten the penis and potentially improve length appearance, but consult a urologist or healthcare professional to determine the best course of treatment for your specific condition.

I've been wondering about a few things. I'm a 17-year-old guy and I've been masturbating since I was 16. Lately, I've heard some stuff that has me a bit worried. Does masturbating lead to hair loss or affect the levels of protein and calcium in my body? And does the body actually produce semen every day? I'm just curious and would appreciate some guidance.
