I'm a 20-year-old male and I've noticed my penis is curved to the left. It makes me wonder if this is something I should be concerned about. Is it safe to have a curved penis? I'm really interested in knowing if there are natural methods to straighten it out since I'm not keen on going for surgery. Any advice would be appreciated.
