Penile Curvature
or Peyronie's
Disease is an
abnormal bend in
the penis that
occurs during
erection. A man
with Peyronie’s
Disease has
hardened or
calcified
tissues in his
penis causing
restriction and
preventing the
penis from
expanding during
an erection.
This results in
a curvature at
that point of
restriction.
Though it cannot
physically kill
you, it can
actually kill
your sex life
rather
effectively.
Nearly 3 percent
of the entire
male population
is estimated to
be afflicted
with Peyronie’s
Disease. It
usually occurs
between the ages
of 45 and 60,
though it can
also occur in
men as young as
18.
Symptoms of the
disease include:
• Painful
erection making
intercourse
difficult or
impossible
• Noticeable
bend or arc in
the penis with
erection
• Noticeable
narrowing of the
diameter of the
penis with
erection
• Thick band of
hard tissue
within the penis
The exact cause
of penile
curvature is
unknown but many
researchers
believe that the
plaque of
Peyronie's
Disease develops
following trauma
(hitting or
bending) or
vigorous sexual
activity that
causes localized
bleeding inside
the penis.
Others trace it
to diabetes,
circulatory
disorders, or a
genetic link.
Many men with
Peyronie's
Disease do not
need any
treatment. The
disease
sometimes clears
up by itself,
although it may
take several
years. Other
men, however, do
need treatment.
There are
several drug
treatments for
those suffering
from Peyronie’s
Disease like
Vitamin E or
B-complex
treatment,
steroid and
calcium channel
blockers
injections, and
radiation
therapy but
these are mainly
for the
reduction of
pain. The most
well known
treatment for
the disease
however,
involves
surgery.
So if you notice
a slight bend or
arc or in your
penis during
erection, you
should
immediately take
action before it
gets worse. The
condition is
typically
progressive and
leads to
impotence or
inability to
have
intercourse.
This is where
the exercises of
Penis-Health and
the traction
device os
Sizegenetics can
help.
With the
traction method,
which is the
foundation of
the system, the
penis cells are
triggered to be
trained or
exercised
naturally
increasing their
elasticity thus
resulting in
reduced or
eliminated
curvature. This
simply means
that the
constant,
permanent
stretch to the
cells of your
penis will
strengthen the
penile tissues
thus reducing
the likelihood
of scarring
resulting to
Peyronie’s
Disease. |
