Hi. I'm 8 weeks post-op and have noticed that my flaccid and erect penis all point about 20 or even 30 degrees to the left. Erections are straight as an arrow but if I am standing up my erection is horizontal but aimed towards the left.
I assume one cylinder is longer than the other. Will this correct itself over time as my penis stretches?

For a few weeks after surgery, my penis pointed left (flaccid and erect), and curved a bit, too. Over time, it straightened. Manually pointing it to center and straight seemed to help.
8 weeks might be a little long. Has it improved over time? If not, I would ask my surgeon or ask the manufacturer's Patient Liaison for an opinion.
Theoretically, absent plaque or scar tissue, etc., your post-op penis, both erect and flaccid, should be fairly straight.

Re: Erection Not Pointing Straight
RJ,
Is the head crooked? Did you notice that one side of the glans was higher before your catheter was removed? Were you straight before surgery? If any of these is yes then the standard up to a fifth of an inch off in measurement may be your problem. If so then it will likely be permanent.

Re: Erection Not Pointing Straight
In flaccid state my tips are even. My right side cylinder has a little more of a dog ear than the left. When inflated my right tip in deeper in my glans, also head of my penis is higher on the right side point to the left a slight amount.
My Coloplast rep and my urologist both said that being a little off is normal. I do have a issues with pump being too high. Dr said he would fix that. I almost 4 months post -op

Re: Erection Not Pointing Straight
Mine also points left and rides that way during the because it’s a bit uncomfortable hanging straight down. Like many others I keep a few pumps “in”..........it also helps with comfort.
He does point slight left when inflated however my woman is on the left side of the bed so early morning mouth action means he is oriented the correct way.......win, win
