Penile Curvature Affecting Your Sex Life? You Have More Treatment Options Than You Think

Peyronie’s Disease causes penile curvature that can make sexual activity painful or difficult. While pain resolves naturally in 89% of cases, curvature improves spontaneously in 12% so most men need treatment. Generally, modern treatments range from non-invasive options to advanced surgical solutions. 

In this comprehensive guide, Dr. Premal Patel and Dr. Jay Nayak explain:

  • What causes Peyronie’s Disease and why early evaluation matters
  • How to tell the difference between Peyronie’s plaques and other concerning lumps
  • When “watchful waiting” makes sense vs. when treatment is necessary
  • Non-surgical options: traction devices, verapamil injections and shockwave therapy
  • Surgical solutions: plication, grafting and penile prosthesis and how to choose
  • What to realistically expect from each treatment approach 
  • How to preserve sexual function

 

Understanding your treatment options is essential because Peyronie’s Disease affects every patient differently. Some men need minimal intervention while others benefit from surgery. This guide helps you navigate the decision-making process with confidence.
