An apadravya is a male genital piercing which passes vertically through the glans penis, typically through the urethra, although non-centered apadravyas are also possible. The piercing is supposedly described in the Kama Sutra.
Apadravyas are sometimes pierced in two sessions, the first creating a Prince Albert piercing, and the second (after healing) completing an apadravya. (The upper half of the piercing is not the same as a Reverse Prince Albert piercing: while both pass through the same tissue, the angle is different.)
Straight barbells are the usual jewelry for apadravya piercings. The barbell must be long enough to accomodate erection, so the penis must be measured while erect before piercing, and an allowance must be made for ballooning of the urethra during ejaculation.
The apadravya piercing has been nicknamed "happydravya" for the added pleasure it is said to provide to the wearer or partner. If the penis has been subincised or meatotomized, the piercing is called a halfadravya.
The apadravya is related to the ampallang piercing, which passes through the glans horizontally. The combination of an apadravya and an ampallang is sometimes called a "magic cross".
