Angle issue continuation?


When my penis is erect, it almost reaches my abdomen.
I used to think this felt great, but recently, after experiencing intimacy for the first time, I found that it is quite high, and many positions cannot be used because forcing it down causes pain, which prevents me from enjoying sexual intercourse.
Is there any non-surgical solution to this? Thank you.

Managing a high penis angle during erection can be a concern for some individuals, especially when it interferes with sexual activity. While this is a less commonly discussed topic, there are several approaches you can consider that do not involve surgical intervention.

1. Understanding Anatomy: First, it’s essential to understand that variations in penis angle during erection are normal. The angle can be influenced by several factors, including anatomical differences, the elasticity of the penile tissues, and the position of the ligaments that support the penis. A high angle may not necessarily indicate a medical issue, but if it causes discomfort or pain, it’s worth exploring solutions.

2. Positioning: Certain sexual positions may be more comfortable than others. For instance, positions where the partner is on top can allow for better control over the angle of penetration. Experimenting with different positions can help you find what works best for you and your partner. Additionally, using pillows to adjust the angle of your partner's hips can help accommodate a higher angle.

3. Lubrication: Adequate lubrication can reduce friction and discomfort during intercourse. If you're experiencing pain when trying to adjust the angle, using a high-quality lubricant can help ease the process and make the experience more enjoyable.

4. Pelvic Floor Exercises: Strengthening the pelvic floor muscles through exercises like Kegels can improve control over erections and may help in managing the angle. These exercises involve contracting and relaxing the muscles that control urination and can enhance sexual function.

5. Consulting a Professional: If the high angle is causing significant discomfort or impacting your sexual life, it may be beneficial to consult a urologist or a sexual health specialist. They can provide personalized advice and assess if there are any underlying conditions contributing to the issue. They may also suggest non-surgical interventions, such as physical therapy focused on pelvic health.

6. Psychological Factors: Sometimes, anxiety or stress about sexual performance can exacerbate physical issues. Engaging in open communication with your partner about your concerns can alleviate some of this stress. Additionally, considering counseling or therapy focused on sexual health may help address any psychological barriers.

7. Alternative Devices: Some individuals explore the use of sexual aids or devices designed to help manage angles during intercourse. These can include specially designed rings or harnesses that can provide support and comfort.

8. Lifestyle Adjustments: Maintaining a healthy lifestyle through regular exercise, a balanced diet, and avoiding excessive alcohol or smoking can improve overall sexual health. Sometimes, general health improvements can lead to better sexual function and comfort.

In conclusion, while a high penis angle during erection can be a source of discomfort, there are several non-surgical strategies you can explore. It’s essential to communicate openly with your partner and consider consulting a healthcare professional for tailored advice. Remember that sexual health is an important aspect of overall well-being, and addressing any concerns with a qualified expert can lead to better outcomes.
