    Question

    my penis is not straight. i think one night after sleeping it was bent towards the left, and since then it usually hardens towards the left and not straight. is this fixable? will this affect my love life?

    Answer

    The penis will naturally have a curve to one side or the other that can be seen when erect. If there is no pain, you can urinate (pee) and ejaculate (cum) without problems or pain, then I doubt there will be any problem with your "love life."

    Sometime a penis will be traumatized (hit, kicked, damaged) and form scar tissue, which will make the penis softer on that side beyond the injury and curve in the penis, but there is a problem in becoming completely hard in this case. If you have suffered an injury or if you are having problems becoming completely hard or with urination or ejaculation, please seek medical care.
