Shrinkage of peyronies disease?

[upwardpe]

I have read on numerous sites that peyronies will shrink your penis. I am wondering, when they talk about shrinkage is it the fact that the penis will bend and not be straight that you lose length because of the curvature or because the plague makes the blood flow to penis and you get weak and small erections, et your penis shrinks.

You lose length because of curvature but also due to wasting. It can thin out distally, or cause dents or various other things. Flaccid or erect shrinkage occurs. To length and girth.

Yeah, the worst part of Peyroines is shrinkage. I went from 8 inches to who knows what. It's a horrible disease.

The plaque causes contracture of the penis, not the bend. The contracture is the shrinkage.

Plaque can cause bending, hourglassing, wasting, denting, etc

You know, it's odd Tony. I had that hourglass deformity when I first was diagnosed with Peyroines back in 2015. And I had it when I saw Dr Lue in 2016. But, it seems to have disappeared now. I wonder if it just cleared up on its own, or my foreskin stretching has something to do with improving it with light traction?

Interesting.  Dies your foreskin stretching also pull on the penis structures as traction does?
