Dear A., I am very glad that you wrote about your question. I am sorry to be so long replying to you -- I had to do some "digging" to find information for you! "Crooked Penis" may be caused by a condition called "Peyronies" syndrome. It is not uncommon, and sometimes it resolves by itself, and sometimes it does not. There is no way to tell if you can enjoy a "normal" sex life until you try. The good news is that many men and their partners do not find that this bend causes them any difficulty at all. It is important to talk to your doctor about your concerns. He or she can examine you and tell you about some treatment options if the curve in your penis causes pain or difficulty with sexual intercourse. I wish you well, and hope that you are able to find a doctor who will support you in finding your answers! Sincerely, Susan Ludwig
