26 yrs old peyronies sufferer for 6+ years

[Tiger93]

Hi everybody. A little background on myself, I'm 26 yrs old  and have had peyronies disease (from what I can recall) since about 19 yrs old, around 2012. I was having lots of sex with my first (and only) ex girlfriend and ignorantly attempted the famous jelqing technique to make my penis bigger, and everything went downhill from there. It started with pain & pressure, weak erections which my less wise 19 yr old self interpreted as "gains".

By 2013 I could no longer acheive a normal erection, my girlfriend and I broke up for a few months from what I see now was at least partially due to the fact that we couldn't have proper sex anymore. Since then I have developed a hourglass around the base of my penis and a left upward curve (severe ED, erections get to 60% and feel like a water balloon which quickly fades) and my size has shrunken from 6.5in erect to 5in over the years

Short story, I seen a urologist in July who tried to send me off saying he couldn't feel a plaque and basically told me to work on my anxiety issues, I argued (politely) back that I literally had a physical deformity when erect and he said even if I do that there was nothing he could do for me given my age and the fact that I do not have a severe curve from what I describe. He told me there is no easy fix for this problem. For a while I was angry at the urologist but now I understand that I am being closed minded. I have since requested my GP to refer me to a Peyronies Disease specialist in my city and I am waiting for a word.

Skip forward to today, this morning I bought a VED pump from my local sex store for 40 bucks and tried some low volume pumping according to  Old Mans VED protocol and also just messed around a bit to see if I could get a nice erection. Needless to say I have never seen my penis become this hard and sensitive for a while and my intuition is that this is the most readily available effective therapy for the general public. This is day one and I can already feel a difference, I could've probably had some half decent sex after pumping today although the pumping has really shown how pronounced the curves and lumps are. Give it a try if you haven't already as it might just save your life. Just dont be overzealous and push your limits.

I will try to become a contributing member of this community as I would like to help support others, especially other young men who are dealing with this debilitating condition. And stay away from jelqing if you arent already.

Hi Tiger93, welcome to the forum. What a cautionary tale for anyone even considering jelqing, it is a totally dumb thing to do IMO, however it seems common place due to unrealistic images on porn sites for young guys  
I think IMO that most 'performers' on these websites use Viagra and other stimulants, the fact that young guys wouldn't need these if they vastly reduced their porn usage lol.

I am glad you are getting benefits from the use of a VED but you should IMO not be using these everyday and go slowwwly.

Hey Paolo, thanks for your input! Yes, in life we often want things we dont need. All I care about today is being able to have the experience of fathering a child and building a family. And I will be very careful with the VED but I feel confident that this is the most effective frontline therapy backed my medical studies based on the vast and obsessive amount of research i've done. Going to get on 5mg daily cialis soon and hopefully Pentox if next urologist allows.
