   Hello Dr. Herazy,

   I am 53 and have had peyronie’s disease for about 6 years, tried the straight again supplements for about one year with no luck. I am getting ready to start my peyronie’s disease treatment with your large plan and am currently taking several supplements. Should I stop taking the supplements while taking the treatment plan? Your advise is greatly appreciated.

   HI Dr. Herazy, I’m a long time subscriber to your monthly Peyronie’s disease newsletter and have a request. How about a follow up to the ultrasound device which showed a lot of promise a while ago. You were still conducting trials the last I read. Am very interested in what your conclusions were for ultrasound treatment of Peyronie’s disease. Thanks.

   Greetings Rick,

   I am not familiar with the “Straight Again” supplements for Peyronie’s disease you mention. Sorry.

   In my opinion you should probably not take the other supplements while taking the PDI large plan. If you were taking two different kinds of therapy products you would have a difficult time controlling or understanding your dosages. This might lead to a problem also of understanding how your Peyronie’s disease treatment needs to be limited or modified should that became necessary. TRH

   Greetings Fred,

   Thanks for your interest in ultrasound for treatment of Peyronie’s disease. You must be a reader for many years because it was at least 6-7 years ago that we did that research project.

   As you know, PDI does not advocate the use of any one single Alt Med therapy or even a few Alt Med therapies to treat a problem as tenacious and difficult as Peyronie’s disease; we advocate for the use of many combined Alt Med therapies to be used simultaneously against Peyronie’s disease if they are to be successful; no serious treatment should be done with solo therapies. For this reason we admit the futility of testing or researching any one Alt Med therapy – like ultrasound therapy – against Peyronie’s disease. This explains why most standard medical research testing of Alt Med therapy items (vitamin E, PABA, coenzyme Q10, L-arginine, etc.) will show them rather ineffective and pointless; because they are researched as solo treatments. Now, this is the correct way of testing and researching powerful drugs, but it is a futile way to test Alt Med therapies. And this is why our PDI research of ultrasound for Peyronie’s disease was not done in the usual solo manner to see how it helped Peyronie’s disease. We tested and researched it in a way that drives standard medical researchers crazy. We used the faulty method of having other therapies being used at the same time we had our research subjects also using other Peyronie’s disease therapies. This is bad research, we know, but I do not know of any other way to do it. We had a large group of men with Peyronie’s disease who were not getting good results add in the use of ultrasound into their plans to see if the addition improved their previously poor treatment results. Our results were that almost 60% of our participants noted improved results when ultrasound was added to their existing plans. For this reason we began to advocate for the inclusion of ultrasound into a treatment plan that was not producing good treatment results and we included ultrasound as a standard part of our standard large plan. Testing ultrasound as a solo therapy is against the concepts of PDI and would have doomed it to failure, even though when used in combination it has proven itself to be a very good performer (just as vitamin E, PABA, coenzyme Q10, L-arginine, etc.) that are in the Peyronie’s Disease Institute treatment arsenal.

   Perhaps some day when the Peyronie’s Disease Institute is larger and has a budget to support larger projects we can test and prove the results that we see empirically. TRH
