Some researches studies doggy style can leads to a pen!s fractures (Barros et al., 2017; Barros et al., 2020).
I know this article will raise many eyebrows, but it is important to men’s health. It has been found that a penis fracture can occur when there is trauma to an erect pen!s.
According some studies have reported this issue and linked it to doggy style. For instance, in Ghana, a recent study by Assabill et al. (2022) reported three case studies of pen!s fracture linked to vigorous $éxual activity in men ages 31–60 in Cape Coast.
A pen!s fracture differs from other fractures in the body because the pen!s has no bones. During an erection, the pen!s is engorged with blood that fills two cylinders (the corpora cavernosa).
If an engorged pen!s is bent suddenly or forcefully, the trauma can rupture the outer lining of one of the two cylinders (tunica albuginea). This can result in a pen!s fracture.
The trauma is most often caused by $éxual intercourse, such as when the pen!s slips out of the vag!na and is accidentally thrust against the pelvis.

A pen!s fracture often results in a penis that bulges and appears purple, looking somewhat like an eggplant. Signs and symptoms of a pen!s fracture include immediate penile pain, a popping or cracking sound, rapid loss of erection, and swelling in the pen!le shaft. There is also the discoloration of the pen!le shaft due to bleeding underneath the skin.
Sometimes the tube that drains urine from the body (the urethra) is damaged as well, and blood might be visible at the urinary opening of the pen!s. A pen!s fracture requires urgent medical attention.
The injury can usually be diagnosed with a physical exam, but additional testing such as ultrasound may be needed. Prompt surgical repair is typically recommended.
Check The Studied Here!
I chanced on this important study on men’s health, and I have decided to share it with you. The study by Barros et al. (2017) evaluates the relationship between $éxual position and the severity of the pen!le fracture.
The authors studied 90 patients with pen!le fractures. Also, the mechanism of injury and the $éxual position were assessed.
They divided their sample by the genesis of the fracture into six groups: (a) masturbation or pen!le manipulation; (b) "man-on-top" position; (c) "doggy style" position; (d) "woman-on-top" position; (d) blunt trauma; and (e) "rolling over" fracture. The patient’s ages ranged from 18 to 66 years (mean of 39 years).
They found that the $éxual position at the time of injury varied, with 23 cases (25.5 percent) occurring in the "man-on-top" position, 37 cases (41 percent) in the "doggy style," and 9 cases (10 percent) in the "woman-on-top."
They did not observe differences in the severity of the pen!le fracture between the "doggy style" and "man-on-top," but the "doggy style" had a greater severity of penile fracture when compared with "woman-on-top" and pen!le manipulation. The "man-on-top" and "doggy" style positions showed more associations with bilateral fractures.
A more recent study by the same author (Barros et al. 2020) to report their experiences over the past 20 years in the diagnosis and surgical treatment of penile fracture (PF) examined medical records from January 1997 and January 2017 in 255 cases and found that $éxual trauma was the main cause of pen!le fracture.
In this case, 110 (43.1 percent) occurred with the "doggy style" position, 103 (40.3 percent) with the "man on top" position, 31 (12.1 percent) with the "woman on top" position, and 11 (4.3 percent) in other $éxual positions.
Eke, N. (2002) also reviewed studies from January 1966 to July 2001 and found a total of 183 publications; 1331 cases were reported between January 1935 and July 2001.
In explaining this position, Kar and Kar (2005) agreed that "doggie style" was a $éx position in which a person bends over, crouches on all fours (usually on hands and knees), or lies on their abdomen for $éxual intercourse, other forms of $éxual penetration, or other $éxual activity.
A doggy style is one form of a rear-entry position; others have the receiving partner lying on the side in the spoon $éx position or the reverse cowgirl $éx position. Non-penetrative $éx in this position may also be regarded as "doggy style."
Although it is not the most commonly used $éx position, it is regarded as the preferred position by men, while the reverse cowgirl position is preferred by women (The Missionary Position; 2005).
Alex and Susan (2005) also held the view that, among $éx partners, the person in the doggy style position is usually passive, while the other partner is active (although sometimes it can be the other way around if the person in the doggy position backs up into their partner behind them). Either partner may be the dominant partner or the submissive partner.
In this position, the receiving partner implicitly gives the active partner carte blanche over their body. Besides other potential $éx acts, the active partner may also massage or stimulate the receiving partner’s erogenous zones, such as the genitals, nipples, and buttocks, and administer a spanking (Rogiere, Jean, 2001).
Robert J. Campbell (2009) explained that in ancient Rome, this practice was known as coitus more ferarum, Latin for “$éxual intercourse in the manner of wild beasts."
In The Kama Sutra (1883), the author notes that the specific origin of the term "doggy style" is not known but is presumably a reference to the initial position assumed by dogs when mating.
It is described in the Kama Sutra as the cow position or the congress of a cow and is listed in The Perfumed Garden.
