Treatments for Peyronie's Disease
How is Peyronie's disease treated?
Peyronie's disease can sometimes get better without treatment during the acute phase. Once the disease is stable and the chronic phase begins, it usually doesn't get better on its own. If you have a slight curve that isn't getting worse and have good erectile function, treatment usually is not needed. But if pain is a problem, or if the curve is getting worse and interfering with your sexual activity, then getting treatment may help.
If your doctor is a primary care doctor, you may be referred to a urologist.
Most people are able to remain sexually active. Counseling can help you maintain an active sexual life.
Medicines, such as NSAIDS, may help treat pain.
Surgery is only considered if you have a severely curved penis or sexual dysfunction related to Peyronie's disease. Surgical options include removing the scar tissue or shortening the unaffected side of the penis (plication). Experts usually suggest that before trying surgery, you wait at least a year.
If a penis is severely curved with poor erections, a penile prosthesis may be used to help straighten the penis and keep an erection during intercourse.
