Has anyone noticed a connection between Prozac or any other drugs? I personally have not take many meds my entire life. At 44 years old after taking Prozac for a week - out of nowhere - developed knots & curvature. It was not right away that I made the connection - and I'm not certain of it - but I have had no "trauma" or other underlying "known" causes for for the sudden onset. Additionally - I stopped taking the drug and my condition stabilized IE did not get worse. I'm working on treatment options and hoping for natural correction.

One of the posts on the forum regarding  Prozac:

Many other drugs also were somehow the culprit of starting Peyronies

I had been taking low dose fluoxetine for years before this began. I had switched to relatively high dose cymbalta however perhaps 8 months before due to depression related to other health issues. I didn't like the cymbalta and tapered off it after the eight months and it was THEN that I began to notice nodules in the penis which would present as Peyronie's 6 months later, as well as Raynaud's phenomenon. However I also had lost 45 lbs in 2 months at that point due to and extreme diet. The diet had been suggested as a trigger. But I have wondered about the cymbalta. I am reluctant to get too excited about the correlation but who knows.

Many medication are culprits of starting Peyronies.
Regarding you lost of wait and diet, I don't think so. Losing weight will help with general health that may be good for Peyronies also
