1. A penile constriction device comprising an arched rod comprising:
a first arm comprising
a first coupling end, and
a first converging end having a first terminus;
a second arm comprising
a second coupling end, and
a second converging end having a second terminus disconnected from the first terminus, wherein the first converging end and the second converging end converge to form a constriction region; and
a bridge connecting the first coupling end to the second coupling end, the bridge comprising
a compression region rising inferiorly from an inferior side of the bridge, wherein the compression comprises:
a first dorsal vein protrusion comprising:
a first dorsal apex; and
a first dorsal height measured as a first minimum normal distance between the first dorsal apex and a first lateral edge of the first dorsal vein protrusion where the first dorsal vein protrusion rises from the inferior side of the bridge;
a second dorsal vein protrusion comprising:
a second dorsal apex, and
a second dorsal height measured as a second minimum normal distance between the second dorsal apex and a second lateral edge of the second dorsal vein protrusion where the second dorsal vein protrusion rises from the inferior side of the bridge; and
a dorsal vein valley between the first dorsal vein apex and the second dorsal vein apex,
wherein the compression region at a center of the dorsal vein valley is inferior to the first lateral edge, the second lateral edge, or both.
