Peyronie’s Pictures – What does the curved penis of Peyronie’s disease look like?
Peyronie’s pictures showing various types of curved penis deformity. Find pictures of Peyronie’s disease at the bottom of this page. Warning: Graphic male nudity.
Purpose
Thes
e Peyronie’s pictures educate and instruct. Yet, by themselves they disease cannot diagnose a case of Peyronie’s disease. A curved penis does not automatically mean a man has PD. Specifically, a diagnosis of Peyronie’s disease needs more clinical and medical information that just a picture of a curved penis.
People often use the internet to see Peyronie’s pictures for comparison. Or, to see how much the penis can bend. After viewing these pictures of Peyronie’s disease, you can make a decision grounded more on fact, and less on emotion.
These Peyronie’s pictures should encourage prompt medical attention. Get a doctor’s opinion about your bent penis. Not knowing is sometimes worse than knowing.
Perhaps, after viewing these Peyronie’s pictures, you will feel relieved. Hopefully, you are not as bad off as other men are. Click on, Progression of Peyronie’s Disease.
Pictures of Peyronie’s disease and the exact mechanism of penile curvature
Why Peyronie’s pictures look like this
Peyronie’s disease is an exaggeration of the healing process. More fibrous scar tissue develops under the skin than is needed to heal the injured penis. The extra scar, depending on number, size and location, can cause the penis to be slightly or severely distorted during erection.
Imagine a balloon with a small piece of tape on it. Blow up the balloon. What will happen? The balloon will bend or twist. Likewise, Peyronie’s disease causes a similar result.
Ideally, the normal penis expands and elongates evenly. This results in a straight erection. However, in Peyronie’s disease, dense fibrous scar replaces normal elastic tissue. Thus, when a man with Peyronie’s has an erection, the scar does not expand. This internal scar causes a curve or twist to develop. The curved penis can be mild to severe.
Not all Peyronie’s disease looks the same
Some bends are so mild they found only on autopsy. Others, greater than 90 degrees! The scar may range from a few millimeters, or encompass the entire shaft of the penis. Pain, hardened scar formation and/or distortion may develop slowly or appear overnight in PD. Angulation of the erect penis from 5°- 45° is not uncommon. Bends greater than 90 degrees happen. As a result, they are called a “J deformity” or “cane handle.” Even so, distortion or curvature of the non-erect penis is rare.
In 10-50 percent of cases, Peyronie’s disease heals by itself. The inflammation will resolve early without causing significant or permanent bend. For most cases, the scar may create a bend or curve, dent or ding, twist, bottleneck, collar-like, hourglass-like distortion of the erect penis. In addition, it is not uncommon for the penis to twist or turn. For this reason, all Peyronie’s pictures seem to be different.

Good Morning Dr. Herazy my Peyronie’s disease is very similar to the photo of slight left lateral with constrictive ring causing hourglass deformity close to body with a loss of over 2 -3 inches of length, for the life of me I am unable to pinpoint the scar tissue, your suggestions would be greatly appreciated. thank you
Good morning to you, sir,
It is fairly common for men to have difficulty locating their Peyronie’s disease scar; even MDs often cannot locate it easily or at all. This comes down to not either not having the experience to know what Peyronie’s disease scar tissue feels like, or feeling it but not having the confidence to know that what you are feeling is the scar material. Either way. this explanation should help you locate the offending scar that is causing your hourglass deformity.
Knowing where your scar is located – although not always easy or obvious – is essential to effective Peyronie’s disease treatment. Finding and describing the PD scar is not a matter of curiosity; you MUST know about the scar in as great detail as possible in order to know if you are making actual progress or not as a result of using whatever treatment you are applying in your self-care program. If you do not know whether you scar is or is not responding to care, you are guessing with your treatment. Guessing leads to poor or no progress against the enemy that is the Peyronie’s disease scar. You must not guess, you must know.
Before I go into this subject in some detail, I must remind you that the PD scar is best located while the penis is soft or flaccid – meaning not erect. This will be true 99% of the time, so don’t bother to try to locate your scar tissue unless you are flaccid. While some men have Peyronie’s disease nodules that are best described as “beans’ or “peas,” these are seldom difficult to locate and not the subject of this discussion. You see, not all PD scar shapes are this dense and well-defined; many tend to be flat, soft and often larger than what is expected. Sometimes these large scars actually tend to pose the greatest problem to locate. So for this reason if you are having a problem locating your penile scar, it is probably a good idea to shift your thinking and anticipation in this direction: You probably should be not be looking for a “pea,” which is small but has height; instead you might be better served looking for a “postage stamp” – maybe even a large postage stamp – which is flat and has margins that are sometimes difficult to locate. Changing the mental image of what you are looking for sometimes makes all the difference in the world in locating this tissue.
Peyronie’s disease “scars” or plaques are quiet variable. Some men have an obvious scar and others cannot find one if their life depended on it. Often, when a scar is not found, but there is still pain and bending or any kind of recent penile distortion, a diagnosis of PD can still be made. This is so, because the scar that is causing the pain or bending is either:
1. So small – it cannot be found
2. So very soft – it blends into the other tissue and cannot be detected
3. So deep – it cannot be reached or felt easily
4. So large and flat – that the edges are not easily determined, almost like trying to find the edge of a roll of plastic wrap. When it is a large scar – as many of them are – it is something that is so close to you that you do not see it because you are looking far away and cannot see what is under your nose
5. So greatly different than what you think it is going to feel like that you miss it only because it does not meet your image of what it will be like
6. The doctor’s lack of ability, experience or concern when he does the scar examination – that he simply misses what is actually there if he was better at this kind of thing – yes, I know, it is difficult to imagine but it is true.
Usually, when a scar is NEVER found it is because of a combination of two or more of these factors – deep and small, or soft, large and flat, or deep, soft and doctor error, and so on. From my experience with those who have an extremely difficult time locating their scar, it seems that #4 (so large and flat) or #5 (so different than what you expect) are the reasons for failure to locate the scar. Keep this in mind when you search your landscape trying to locate the scar.
Your primary Peyronie’s disease scar will be located at the lowest or deepest point of the bend, curve or distortion you have. It will be found at or near the deepest or most curved area of your bend or dent formation or bottle neck or hour-glass deformity. It will be on the CONCAVE side of the bend or in the deepest part of whatever type of distortion you might have. The CONCAVE side of the bend is the side that is folded or bent over, or you might say it is the lower or bottom side of the rainbow. The opposite of the concave side is the CONVEX side. The CONVEX side of the bend is the side that is arched over or curved up, or you might say it is the upper or top side of the rainbow. Ultimately, if you have PD you must begin the search with the attitude the scar is there, and it is only waiting to be found. Do not start with a negative attitude; you want to have a sense of high anticipation that it will be found within the next few seconds – this will help keep your senses alert. You should use as many different tactics as you can to find your Peyronie’s disease scar(s) because having a good knowledge of your scar situation will help your treatment effort. The CONCAVE side is where the primary scar is located. If you have any scar located away from the concave side, it is not your current primary scar. For the most part you will want to evaluate all scars you can locate for changes in the size, shape, density and surface features, but when you work to stretch a scar using the PDI gentle manual penis stretching method it is more efficient and effective to only work with the primary scar found at the concavity of the distortion. So when you are looking around to locate you scar you really should be looking only in that small area that is at the concavity of the bend when you are erect. Once you have that one located it will easier to find others if they are also present.
It seems to be more common for a man to have multiple scars, than just one. Men have told me they have found 6-8 internal scars. I had 3-4 scars when I treated my own Peyronie’s disease problem. Therefore, when you find the 1st one continue looking for more and you will probably find them. Although I mentioned looking for a postage stamp sized scar earlier, Peyronie’s disease scars are not regular or evenly shaped; they often do not have straight sides or 90 degree corners. They are usually very irregular and odd shaped. Think of the shape of the state of Florida or Idaho or Maine (which are irregular) – not like Colorado or Wyoming (which are very square and regular).
Perhaps your expectations of what a scar should feel like is the actual problem; you might be locating and feeling the scar, but you do not realize it. Try to think in terms of your scar being much larger than you have previously imagined. Allow yourself to mentally expand the size of the scar you are looking for. Meaning, if you were looking for a “pea” before, start looking for a “peanut” size structure or even larger like a postage stamp. This changes your methods and your outlook about what you can detect.
It seems that lately I have many men reporting that their scars are as large as the length of the shaft, and some are narrow while others are wider. Image your scar is that large. If you are looking for a pea-sized scar it will prevent you from easily finding something much larger like a postage stamp.
Do not be discouraged if the scar you have is large since it does not seem that the size has much to do with difficulty or time required to eliminate it. Larger Peyronie’s disease scars can take just as long as smaller scars to treat.
Try this: forget about finding a “scar.” Just try to find something – anything – within the mass of erectile tissue that feels unlike the other tissue. Find something that is unlike the rest of your penis. When you find it, mark its location with a marker pen or something that will stay on the tissue for a day or two. Go back each day to that area and re-think what you are feeling. You are trying to see if it becomes easier to make sense of it. It could be that you have an unreasonable expectation of what a “scar” should feel like, and you are missing what is really rather obvious only because your expectation is wrong. Really, how could you know what a PD scar feels like if you have never had to do this before? Trouble locating the scar is a common problem.
PDI has much success with the methods we present to you. Just because your doctor could not locate your scar does not mean it is not there. And it definitely does not mean that you cannot find it just because he can’t. As so many men with Peyronie’s disease finally come to understand, you must take control of your situation and begin to get well on your own. A large part of being in control of your treatment is to have a vivid image of the scar physical qualities in your mind.
Since 2002 I have worked with many thousands of men with Peyronie’s disease, some mild and some severe cases, some just a few months and several that were more than 10 years old. I had a significant PD problem until I cured my condition using the procedures found in the book I wrote and the same Alternative Medicine ideas as on the website. You will not feel like a victim once you start working to improve your health and immune response against the presence of this foreign tissue.
If this Peyronie’s disease instruction still does not help you locate your scar tissue, please contact me personally through the PDI website. TRH Peyronie’s disease
When peyronie’s disease affects a man, small penis size does not have much to do with difficulty he will have or the degree of curvature or the time it takes to develop.
Greetings Shaun,
I tend to agree with your observation about Peyronie’s disease, although the smaller the initial penis size the more a loss of length and girth will affect him. Peyronie’s disease is a big problem no matter how big or small a man might be. TRH
I’M 54 year’s old I have a curved penis too about a year now . what can I do about it . is it peyronie’s disease ? it used to be straight out when my dick was hard now goes crooked to the left . do I need to go see a doctor about the problem?
Greetings Daryl,
Yes, see a doctor to determine if you have Peyronie’s disease or not.
Once you have a diagnosis of Peyronie’s disease you must decide if you want to use surgery, drugs or Alternative Medicine to treat your problem.
After doing this work with Peyronie’s disease since 2002 we have developed a treatment protocol that is rather specific and tested by many thousands of men. The PDI treatment approach different because it consists of combining several Alt Med therapies and using them at the same time. Our men report back 8-10 successes (from moderate to great) for every one failure. That is an impressive rate of success for a stubborn problem that drives the MDs crazy. If penis surgery sounds like an extreme idea then perhaps you should consider a conservative non-surgical approach first. In all the years that we have worked with men to help them them with their Peyronie’s disease, we have not received one report of recurrence after the problem has self-healed. TRH
I think i have peyronie’s disease my penis is thick as it was then bends to the left and upwards and have lost i think 2_ 3 inches of length after the bend it is softer and thin please can u help me
Greetings Peter,
You must first go to a doctor to determine if you have Peyronie’s disease. You must also determine how you want to help yourself. Some men decide to use drugs and surgery because they think that is the best way to get help, but others decide to first try to help themselves heal their Peyronie’s disease because they do not like the side effects of medical care or they want to avoid the dangers of surgery. If you decide to use the natural treatment methods of PDI you must first read how it is done and make an informed decision.
PDI has been around since 2002 offering an Alt Med treatment protocol that is rather specific and tested by many thousands of men. By combining the various Alt Med therapies you see on this website our users report 8-10 successes in reducing their PD (from moderate to great) for every one failure. We believe this is an impressive rate of success for a stubborn problem that does not get great results to standard medical care. By combining various natural Alt Med therapies many men do a better job of self-healing in many cases. Its really as simple as that. With continued feedback from men like you perhaps we will see even higher rates of success, and come to understand natural Peyronie’s disease treatment even better.
Good luck to you in regard to Peyronie’s disease. TRH
I definitely have Peyronie’s disease, Dr Herazy and I’m one of the small percentile that has pain whilst erect and flaccid, unfortunately. I’ve been looking for answers and non-surgical treatment information for months now, so your site has been a very welcome find!!!
I have some complications when it comes to the use of vitamins when treating the scar tissue, which I have found and would describe it as deep, quite thick, wide and tough!
I have a genetic condition where my body produces and retains too much iron, stored mainly in the liver but also in and around other organs. So I cannot use anything that may add to this excess, for example the vitamins which the body then turns into iron.
Can you suggest the best way to proceed please?
Thanks,
Steve.
Greetings Steve,
Pain occurs perhaps in over half of the cases of Peyronie’s disease, usually only when erect. I had the opposite reaction with my PD; pain only when flaccid. Very few men report essentially constant pain, and this is often mild although the pain can sometimes be severe. Peyronie’s disease pain is just one area of symptom variability, there are many others.
You will not find that the body can turn a vitamin into iron; it does not happen that way. The body might use one or more different vitamins in the metabolic pathway in which iron is involved, but not that iron is created from something else.
The best way to proceed with PDI Alt Med Peyronie’s disease treatment is to determine which plan you wish to use, or if you wish to use a plan at all — meaning you might decide to modify an existing plan you see. Please see http://peyronies-disease-help.com/new-customer-how-to-select-treatment-plan/ . If you still have concerns about the best way to proceed please let me know.
Peyronie’s disease is a difficult problem to treat, and with their frequent side effects and adverse reactions medication and surgery are not always the answer. PDI Alt Med treatment results are such that I get 8-10 reports of success (moderate to marked) for every one report of failure, when the man uses the products according to our time-tested protocol. When you place an order with PDI you will receive complete instructions how to use those products. Good luck with your Peyronie’s disease. TRH
Hi Doctor,
Thanks for the very swift reply to my Peyronie’s disease question, it is much appreciated!
Yes the issue is anything that the body uses to metabolize iron and/or the combined building blocks. Thankfully it’s easy to treat THAT problem! This issue with my penis is proving far more problematic.
Is there any way to private message you, so I can discuss the additional complex issues that my strange genes and other complications, before I make my choice about Peyronie’s disease treatment.
Thanks once again.
Best regards
Steve
Greetings again Steve,
Yes, we can discuss other aspects of your overall condition over the phone. Simply go to http://peyronies-disease-help.com/pdi-product/phone-consult-with-dr-herazy-2015-minutes/ to arrange for some phone-time. You can ask any question about any aspect of Peyronie’s disease. TRH
Hi Doctor, I have been diagnosed with peyronie’s disease with curvature to left of approx 30% bend starting at 3 inches from top of shaft as well as 40% vertical bend upward starting about 2 inches out from base. I experience more pain/burning when in flaccid state which can extend to my testicles. Burning seems to be worse at base on each side. This seems worse when laying down or sitting for extended periods. Sleeping for longer than 2-3 hours is rare. The 30% bend to the left is visible when in a flaccid state and if i don’t try to correct curve when urinating i have burning in shaft post urinating for some minutes. I had onset of peyronie’s disease symptoms eighteen months post-radical nerve sparing prostectomy. Up until that time i had no symptoms though full erections did not return until twelve months post-operation. Post-surgery rehab was after six weeks. Cialis 5 mg daily with VED Pump then 1-2 weekly Viagra 50mg after six months. I am currently on Oxypenitfylline 400mg X2 and Cialis 5mg daily. I am concerned that pain/burning symptoms are mostly when member is in flaccid state which doesn’t seem to be the usual reported situation. I am also concerned what will be the final outcome (what will i be left with) of the onset of peyronie’s disease.
Thanks, Rob
Greetings Rob A,
Peyronie’s disease pain while flaccid does occur, but less commonly than pain while erect. When I dealt with my own PD many years ago I also had pain only when flaccid, never when erect.
Most things about Peyronie’s disease are rather variable and pain is one of them. However, loss of sleep due to pain is much less common; usually PD pain is only mild to moderate and does not interrupt sleep. Given your history of prostate disease I speculate that much of your past and current pain and burning over the broad area you describe is more likely to originate from your prostate gland than from your Peyronie’s disease. The prostate is well known to refer pain to the lower pelvic and genital area. Having said that, perhaps your pain is so pervasive because it is a combination of two problems.
It seems to be increasingly common for men to report the onset of Peyronie’s disease after prostate surgery. Please refer to several PDI articles about how this might occur as a result of trauma during hasty and aggressive catheterization.
Peyronie’s disease is initially progressive for the first year or two, and then becomes stable or perhaps continues a long period of slow decline; again the variability I mentioned. Anyone in your situation should consider doing all that he can to attempt to enhance and support the body’s natural ability to heal. Half of the men who get Peyronie’s disease will self-cure it without any outside intervention or treatment; it just goes away because the immune system repairs the damage.
The Peyronie’s Disease Institute is devoted to the finding better ways to help men self-heal their PD. PDI works with Alt Med in ways that no one else does. This can result in some rather nice changes in PD in a fair percent of cases when men follow the instructions we provide. Since 2002 I have seen that 8-10 men report moderate to marked improvement of their Peyronie’s disease when using the PDI concepts for every one report of failure. Please review the natural treatment concepts on this site. You might be able to do something for your Peyronie’s disease. TRH
Doctor, I am a 56 year old male who has had a downward curve on my penis for at least 30 years. It is not a major curve, (perhaps 20 percent) but uncomfortable to most women. I saw a urologist a few years ago and he would not completely diagnose it as Peyronie’s disease. He reported to find a mild scar when feeling for it. I recognize it is nowhere near as severe as many of your clients. Sex is not painful for me. It IS awkward and discouraging for me when I am with women. What are your suggestions?
Greetings Edward,
Peyronie’s disease is best judged by how much it impacts the lives of the people who must deal with it. A severe distortion that does not alter the physical and emotional lives of the people involved can be addressed as a minor problem, while a minor distortion that wracks the people involved physically and emotionally is a major problem.
Since the concern you express is more related to sexual intercourse i suggest that you read my book, “Peyronie’s Disease and Sex.” This is the only book of its kind, filled with a wealth of information and practical suggestions for those men with problems as you have described. http://peyronies-disease-help.com/pdi-product/peyronies-disease-sex/. Learning about Peyronie’s disease will help you to deal with the women in your life who must also deal with your curvature. A little knowledge goes a long way.
I am confused by the urologist who located your PD scar tissue, knew of your 20-30 degree bend you were not born with, and yet did not diagnose your problem as Peyronie’s disease. Perhaps there were other issues involved.
So you do not only consider the sexual aspect of Peyronie’s disease, I suggest you also consider treatment of your problem that might reduce the PD fibrous tissue and therefore reduce the degree of penis curvature. For every 8-10 men who report moderate to marked success treating their Peyronie’s disease with the PDI Alt Med concepts, there is only one who fails; not bad. Please consider doing something to help yourself. TRH
My urologist diagnosed my Peyronie’s disease curvature (about 30 degrees) actually about 2 inches down from the tip. Points when erect at about 10:00 to the left. He said he feels what he called scar tissue. He suggested vitamin E which I have taken for over a year. I was involved with a woman who said during intercourse my bent penis rubbed in spots on the side which she found enjoyable. She was 15 years younger but she said it did not bother her as much as it bothers me both physically and mentally. We are no longer together, but it is still curved and when I get an erection I do feel some pain. I am 71. I can also see the curve when flaccid and when I urinate. I have had different medical issue and my doctor has basically said any surgical procedure could have a number of side effects and or other problems. I still take 1000 mg vitamin E also co Q 10 and other vitamins. I would like to try something safe for the Peyronie’s disease as I am withdrawn from wanting to meet someone. Every time I look at it and feel the sides I feel tissue in there and when it gets erect it does feel uncomfortable. I believe in supplements. Your ideas would be appreciated. Thank you. Gene
Greetings Gene,
Several years back I heard from a fellow in Australia with Peyronie’s disease who said getting PD was the best thing that ever happened to him. He claimed that his popularity soared because the ladies were delighted with the way his upward curve hit their G-spot. Some guys get lucky even in the midst of a big problem.
Many men with even a significantly bent penis still have no difficulty making entry. I suppose it depends on the degree of penile rigidity when erect. So many things about Peyronie’s disease is variable (amount of curvature, super soft or super hard erection, pain during intercourse, etc.) that either allows some men to be able to engage in intercourse, or not at all.
How your partner views your bent penis, in large part, depends upon you. The worst thing you can do is to say nothing, and let her discover the bend on her own. Tell her about your unique situation in a matter-of-fact way. Peyronie’s disease is not some kind of sexually transmitted disease (STD), and do not say anything that would let her think that it is. If you make the mistake of apologizing for the appearance of your Peyronie’s disease, you are creating a problem for both her and yourself. All of this is explained in great detail in my second book, “Peyronie’s Disease and Sex.” You should get the book, especially since it also discusses in great detail your feelings of withdrawal.
The PDI treatment plan can be an effective self-treatment for Peyronie’s disease. Use the most broad and diverse treatment plan you can afford to use for at least 3-4 months to see how well you respond. if his tissue can respond. Since 2002 we have received spontaneous reports from 8-10 men telling us about moderate to marked improvement of their Peyronie’s disease, for every one report of failure. Those are good odds for improvement, but you have to treat your PD correctly. Taking a few of this and a few of that is not the way to do it.
We have developed a reasonable plan based on science that works in a good percent of cases. Peyronie’s disease is a stubborn and difficult problem to deal with.
Good luck to you, Gene. TRH
Sometime over the last year or two, it seems I’ve developed Peyronie’s disease. I’m 51 and my erection has always been very wide and thick, uniform in girth from the base to just below the glans-corona. I’ve had a few issues with ED over the last few years, sometimes treated with Viagra or Cialis but usually my role sexually is passive and I could achieve orgasm with a mostly hard penis or, while being anally stimulated I would eventually achieve full erections before orgasm. I often use cock rings, metal, leather and various cords and strings that I would elaborately wind around the base of my penis and scrotum, something that I found pleasurable but also helped to get and keep my penis more erect.
Last night, for the first time in a year or more, I took a Viagra and when I got fully hard, realized IMMEDIATELY that although there is no curve, I’ve got a very pronounced hourglass deformation about 1 inch from the base and the overall length is reduced as well. Masturbation was successful though slightly painful when grasping the shaft with any strength.
Flaccid I can feel no scaring, and reading about testing likely to be done for Peyronie’s disease I see a Doppler ultrasound of my erection is probable. Can you tell me the details of this procedure, the injection that causes erection, the setting, who might be present (just the urologist, other staff? Etc?) I’m so shy and suffer such anxiety that I feel like I might never have this done without a very detailed description what to expect.
Greetings Mikeal,
Over and over again I communicate with men with Peyronie’s disease who tell me their PD started after the use of:
1. Viagra, Cialis or Levitra
2. Cock rings and tight penis binders applied for a long time
You can go through many of the discussions I have written on this Peyronie’s disease website that explain how this occurs. If you continue with these practices you will likely worsen your problem.
I suggest you google “Doppler ultrasound Peyronie’s disease” for complete details you need for your comfort.
Many men have initial difficulty locating their PD scar tissue. Probably with adequate instruction you can locate yours, which is the primary reason for having a Doppler scan in the first place. If you need help locating your PD scar tissue, I can send you detailed information how to do this. TRH
recent occurrence of peyronies (last 6 months) curve upwards 35-40 degrees, now what? will this hinder sex?
Greetings Harley,
If your ability to have sex is limited by Peyronie’s disease causing a 35-40 upward bend, depends a lot upon your partner. Some people can, and some people cannot.
To make it work, you must be slow, gentle, and use a good amount of sexual lubricant. Most importantly, you must be careful to not injure yourself further, to say nothing of injury to your partner. Your Peyronie’s disease can be made worse by additional injury.
This is a big and complicated subject, and for this reason I wrote a book about Peyronie’s Disease & Sex. If you have questions and problems in this area, get the book. It has saved many marriages and relationships.
Good luck, sir. TRH
Can Peyronie’s disease also cause your penis to become thinner?!
Besides the bend I noticed it’s quite a bit thinner as well.
Greetings Marky,
Yes, in Peyronie’s disease the penis often becomes thinner. This is usually referred to as a loss of girth. It results from the additional fibrous tissue in the tunica albuginea layer of the penis preventing full expansion during an erection. Sometimes this loss of girth is partial, meaning it occurs only in one isolated area of the shaft. When that area is small it can result in a deformity that is called a dent or ding. When it is larger, it can result in many different deformities and distortions. TRH
Hi Dr.Hegazy
I’m 21 years old and I think I got pyronie 4 months ago , in the first two months I thought my case will resolve on it’s own and the tissue will heal itself but didn’t happen . after that I realized that there’s a size loss , shrinkage, and the curve increase especially after masturbation so I stopped doing that bad habit. but however i stopped my penis getting thinner and I got unfortunately wet dreams of sex so in the next morning I realize the loss increased. is the process of pushing sperm makes pyronie getting worse ?, I got tough days I now even afraid to go to sleep and also I live in middle east so I’m still virgin and afraid i can’t get a normal life again
I visit about 4 doctor and because they can’t find the scar or plaque they told me I dont have pyronie also i noticed that my case getting worse i did US Doppler and find that there is an old hematoma I and think this is the cause of what happening to me but still the erosion increases and I don’t know what to do
I have been using vit e 1000 mg a month ago but didn’t help , so i begun doing stretching exercise for about hour in a day , and using pentoxifylline 1200 mg 3 times a day with other type as (verapamil or
Ubiquinol ) what type of these two you recommended me and what the dose i shall take
Thanks for appreciating .
Greetings Sayed,
Just because a doctor cannot find the Peyronie’s disease lump of scar tissue does not mean you do not have PD. Perhaps 50% of cases of Peyronie’s disease never have a scar located.
You are trying to use one kind of natural treatment to help your PD, but that is not the best way to do it. If you tried vitamin E by itself for one month, it is no wonder it did not help you. First, one month of natural treatment is not enough time for the body to respond. And second, using vitamin E alone is not a good way of doing PD treatment; you need a large group of different nutrients to help your body heal. You ask about using Ubiquinol by itself, and the same thing can be said about that. You must combine nutrients for best results. Please look at the treatment plans that we have on the PDI website for information how to do this.
We get 8-10 reports of moderate to marked improvement with our natural treatment of Peyronie’s disease, for each man who says there is no change. That is a good treatment response. Successful natural Peyronie’s disease treatment takes time, and it takes work, but it can happen if you do it correctly. TRH
I’ve had Peyronie Disease for about 13 years. My penis is a little over 6 inches long and about 1.8 inches in diameter when erect. I have an irregular flat spot on the left that’s abut .5 by .75 inches near the base. The scar makes a dent in on the left side and cause the penis to bend to the left about 15 degrees. I’m a little concerned with the dent. Concerned that it may cause it to collapse during intercourse. The dent is confined to the left side and the right side is full when the dent is on the left side. In essence, I do not have an hour glass effect. When I have an erection I can push back from the front from the glans and it appears to be sufficient for intercourse. It collapsing has been a concern. Also, since I’ve had this for 13 years do you think it will advance further. I have no more pain but like you I had mine when flaccid and it was severe.
Greetings Ron,
Collapsing or suddenly bending during intercourse should be the concern of all men with Peyronie’s disease; a second injury on top of an existing PD problem can be devastating. However, each case of PD seems to have a unique feature or unusual aspect to their problem. Many men have a dent or ding somewhere along the length of the penis. This can be thought of as a partial or irregular hourglass deformity. The flatness makes your shaft vulnerable to sudden collapse because it is not filled with blood at that point to provide it with tensile strength.
It would be wise for you to favor those intercourse positions and techniques that keep the shaft as deep in the vagina as possible. Thus, you are giving yourself support that can prevent collapse. Keeping your arms gently around her waist during intercourse will help control her movements and prevent her from “losing you” during wide thrusting. Do not stop having intercourse; be careful and gentle; slower and softer is safer.
At 13 years, it is likely that your Peyronie’s disease is stable, unless, of course, if something happens to reinjure the shaft and worsen the PD.
PDI has worked with and helped many men who had Peyronie’s disease longer than you. Typically, the progress is slower or in some way limited because the PD has been around a long time. However, I have been surprised by men with 10–18-year-old cases of PD who made much more change than I thought possible. The body can do some wonderful healing when given the chance. Perhaps you should consider trying a few months of PDI treatment with a large plan to see if your tissue might respond. Please let me know if you have more questions. TRH
