The most common complaint Male Sexual Function Specialist hears is shortening of the penis.
From Mayo Clinic Staff
Peyronie's (pa-ro-NEEZ) disease is the development of fibrous scar tissue inside the penis that causes curved, painful erections.
Men's penises vary in shape and size, and having a curved erection is common and isn't necessarily a cause for concern. However, in some men, Peyronie's disease causes a significant bend or pain. This can prevent a man from having sex or may make it difficult to get or maintain an erection (erectile dysfunction). For many men, Peyronie's disease also causes stress and anxiety.
In some cases, medications may help. Surgery to treat Peyronie's disease is generally only recommended if the curvature and pain are severe enough to prevent sexual intercourse.
Peyronie's disease symptoms may appear suddenly or may develop gradually. The most common signs and symptoms include:
· Scar tissue. The scar tissue (plaques) associated with Peyronie's disease can be felt under the skin of the penis as flat lumps or a band of hard tissue.
· A significant bend to the penis. Your penis may be curved upward, downward or bent to one side. In some cases, the erect penis has an "hourglass" appearance, with a tight, narrow band around the shaft.
· Erection problems. Peyronie's disease may cause problems getting or maintaining an erection (erectile dysfunction).
· Shortening of the penis. Your penis may become shorter as a result of Peyronie's disease.
· Pain. You may have pain during an erection, only during an orgasm or anytime your penis is touched.
The curvature associated with Peyronie's disease may gradually worsen. At some point, it generally stops getting worse. In most men, pain during erections improves within one to two years but the scar tissue and curvature remain. Rarely, both the curvature and pain associated with Peyronie's disease improve without treatment.
When to see a doctor
See your doctor if pain or curvature of your penis prevents you from having sex or causes you anxiety. An accurate diagnosis is needed to determine whether treatment may help and to rule out other causes of your symptoms.
The day before implant surgery with modeling by Dr. Douglas Milam at Vanderbilt in Nashville TN. A 24 year old single young man had peyronies with hour glassing and ED. Erections would only last a few seconds.
His surgery was an implant with the AMS 700 LGX and modeling.
Two months after implant surgery and modeling by Dr. Douglas Milam at Vanderbilt in Nashville TN.
With the AMS 700 LGX implant and modeling he has now regained to within 1cm of his normal penile size. The LGX is the only implant that expands in both length and girth. CAUTUON: a very skilled Male Sexual Function Specialist that does about 100 a year should only do this surgery. Only less than 4 or 5 qualified doctors worldwide.
He now has a normal sex life and many girl friends. The girls tell him he is the best they ever had.
