Newcomer 55Y M 6+ months Right bent

[YesIAm]

Great to find this
Diagnosed with Peyronies Disease
Not sure how injury occurred
Started with Pain during erection
Right bent about 30 degrees

Treatment - OCT - Vitamin E Tablet and application of Vitamin E Oil.  One week ago started Pentoxyfline 400mg
Considering traction devices in US - Been asked to look at RestoreX - not sure of it has helped others -

BTW 1st urologist was not as expert (in my mind) as he just said take Vitamin E and there is no real cure for it and did not write any prescription.
I went for 2nd opinion and ended up working remotely with an urologist who "claims" he is an expert and has worked with many patients and asked me to take Sidenfail for ED (as a result of Peyronies Disease) and Pentox 400MG and look into traction devices like RestoreX

My question is how do know where plaque is?  I have an appointment next week with original Urologist (phone consultation) and I can ask him.   Any help on how to discover where plaque is?  

(When erect) 1st inch from base if straight - then on right aside of Penis 30 degree very  sharp curve to the right on left side of Penis curve starts from 1.25 inches and then curves.  Of course lows of physics there as for one side to have sharp curve, other one will be wide.

Lost about an inch plus length when erect and also girth is smaller and hardness issues, took 100MG Sidenfail twice so far but did not seem to help much.

Well the vitamin E is worthless. Check the Wikipedia article on it.

Hey Jan. Why don't you post the Wikipedia article yourself, since you say, it's worthless? Why make baseless claims? Why not back your arguments up with proper proof?

50-100mg viagra (or 5mg cialis) nightly + pentox + traction (6+ hrs/day or restorex 60-90 mins/day) is a good treatment strategy.  Give it six months for improvement.

Pfract,

,,Hey Jan. Why don't you post the Wikipedia article yourself, since you say, it's worthless? Why make baseless claims?"

I don't know why everyone is ganging up on me. First you guys get Peter123 muted, because he questioned unscientific claims, now you are going after me. Okay, here:

English Wikipedia:

,,
Vitamin E supplementation has been studied for decades, and some success has been reported in older trials but those successes have not been reliably repeated in larger, newer studies.[16]"

First of all,  peter123 was not muted because he questioned unscientific claims. There are other issues you are not aware of.

Second...  maybe it is your wording. Saying something like "we don't know of any evidence  of improvement from vitamin E" is different than saying "It is worthless". It makes the person who made the comment also feel like they may be worthless for stating it.

Again, let's stay on track and respect the original poster's comments.

Great feedback!  Jan, please listen to him.

[jan.schaller1958]

Ok, Tony, and LWillisjr,

Terribly touchy aren't we? Maybe I should just say vitamin E has been studied for decades with some success in older trials, but those successes have not been repeated in newer trials?

I suppose that's a bit more diplomatic? It still sounds like, if you think vitamin E is going to help, I wouldn't hold my breath.  But, I always say if want to give it a shot, go ahead. As long as you are not taking unsafe doses.

[TonySa]

Jan, please see my PM

[LWillisjr]

I think you will find throughout the forum you will find that there is very little success using  Vitamin E. It doesn't preclude anyone from trying it if they want to. So I think we are agreeing with each other.
