Yes i know, "go to a doctor" i went to a "renowned" specialist and he said it definitely sounds like i have it without even looking at my penis (he was really busy that day, for the record) and just prescribed me some pentox and some low dose cialis. (the pentox was also only twice a day)

I'm confused on whether or not i have it. EVERY SINGLE site and forum says "the bend becomes MORE pronounced during an erection" here's the thing:

I have two slight "harder" bends in my penis. When i get a really hard erection these both fill up and basically go away. According to any website or forum this is completely unheard of (or at last NOT common) and could signify i "don't" have peyronies then?

What could this be?

Also, i'm young and don't have the money or insurance to really go "doctor hopping" so that's kinda what i get and based off what info i give you guys and what you "think" which i know isn't as good as what a doctor says.

That's why i get kinda annoyed when people just say "i dunno see a doctor"

I literally CANNOT see another doctor.

Not unheard of at all. Quite a few people here have a similar incidence of Peyronie's where by the curve or dent is very pronounced when semi erect but becomes far less noticeable at full erection.
This is an emotionally destructive condition, we all have it, let's be nice to each other.

Damn skunk, so you're saying that doesn't necessarily mean i don't have peyronies at all then? Why is it "very common" for MOST websites (we're talking like 10 different ones, including the official peyronies site) to state "it almost always is worse when erect"

Is this a good sign what i'm telling you? Bad? More likely good? Means nothing?

In my opinion notscared, from what you are explaining you don't have Peyronies. :)
I must to say that I am not a doctor, so maybe I am wrong.

I think the definition of Peyronies disease has been broadened over the years. To the point we need to be careful as it seems that almost anything that is 'unusual' is being referred to as Peyronies. I do think that same guys get spots or areas of inflammation that develop in the Tunica. But they only ever develop to a partially elastic state as opposed to a full hardened spot. And that these areas are not as elastic as the rest of the Tunica. So when one is in the process of achieving an erection, their erection might unusually curve. But as it achieves full hardness it is enough to stretch these areas. So this would explain why some guys have curvature during a partial erection, but then is straight when fully erect.

Is this Peyronies......  my response is does it matter what we call it? You don't want it to get worse. And so I still think therapies like VED or traction use to keep these areas stretched out is a good approach. And if it were to become fully developed Peyronies this would be our recommendation to try to keep it from full developing as well.

Bottom line is to be proactive, and regularly monitor yourself for further progress. As long as you can get fully erect and are straight and able to perform is the most important.

So i know i've asked this before, but i forgot the answer so i'll ask again.

True peyronies can NEVER "get better" 100% on its own? I'm confused cause so many reputable websites say that in anywhere from 10-15% of individuals it spontaneously "Gets better completely" but i saw someone's post saying that statistic is completely untrue and that was based off some study where those people just said they had "felt better" it didn't just get better.


I feel like that^ would be incorrect because even the official peyronies website has that statistic where people just "get better" completely. They would be the most 100% up to date on that.

Your questions are repeating themselves and were answered before.
I am not answering to your questions because as I said, nothing new in your post.
You are filling out forum (65 posts until now) with nonsense posts that are not helping no one.
Instead of asking, read on the forum or go the many "Reputable Peyronies sites" and get your answers.
I am issuing you a warning, if you will continue in this way, you may be banned

The question i asked was only asked one other time and i DEFINITELY don't consider it "nonsense" at all.  Whatsoever.


When it was answered before it was only answered by someone's OPINION and i'd like to get more opinions on it, hence why i asked again.......

Those who have recently fell victim to Peyronies Disease will, in time have to comprehend the gravity of their situation....The truth is, your sex life as you have known it, is gone forever! (unless, of course, there becomes a cure)
Anyone who is inflicted with Peyronies Disease ever claiming the StudPower they once had is in my opinion is fibber. In fact, statistics reveal the opposite. 100% of men with Peyronies Disease will never be the same. Peyronies Disease deeply affects a mans self-esteem, and his ability to recon with his sexual core desires.
Does this mean he stops growing as a human being? Not at all. Sex is just a teeny aspect of a full and meaningful life of a man.  
The facts of Peyronies Disease may be depressing and are also as real as the facts of losing a limb, it isn't going to come back. Scar tissue is a physiological fact of nature's way of healing the body.
My suggestion to those who have recently fell victim of Peyronies Disease is this. Accept it as a fact of life, don't personalize it. Get through all the mental and emotional drama that is born out of such a nasty interruption and move on to something even more rewarding than sexual pleasure. There is joy beyond the relm of sex.

DBNO,
I agree with some of your statements and have to disagree with some of them.

I do agree that Peyronies changes things. You are never quite the same. And you do have to come to terms with it and be proactive about it. Like many things in life, accept it, deal with it. and don't let it conquer you.

But I don't agree with your comment about your "sex life as you known it is gone forever". Maybe you didn't mean it this way but it comes across as your sex life is gone. I know too many guys who had Peyronies improvement either through self therapies or even surgery. Are things different....  yes. But it isn't worse or better.... just different. And when I was at my worse I couldn't have intercourse. So to be able to have sex again for me was GOOD! Was it exactly the same, no. Am I happy.... YES!

So I'm not sure I comprehend your point.
