Hi, I was diagnosed 2 years ago (47 year-old male)

[ThisSuckz]

So, I was diagnosed early March 2020 by my urologist. Overall, I have lost length (inch and a half) and girth. My penis has a 45 degree bend, upwards, around the middle.  I had some improvement in the Spring of 2021. I think it's because I was having lots of sexual conversations with someone I had met online. Maybe it was the increased blood flow? Things worsened when I had sex last November. Now, I'm terrified of any kind of sexual activity. Even erections, while wearing jeans, hurt again. As for treatments, I have done manual traction and counter bending. They haven't done much. I'm in good physical shape, and I had a very healthy sex life before this nightmare. I'm considering an asexual lifestyle because I'm embarrassed by how my penis looks. I used to take a lot of pride in my penis' appearance. I know things can be worse. I have my health, at least. I want to try VEDs, but the horror stories freak me out. I woke up early this morning to an erection, and was so depressed by it (size and bend), so that's why I made an account. I have lurked for 2 years, but now it's time to accept things are only going to get worse, unless I engage and become more pro-active. I would be happy with gaining most of my lost size and if my my bend was, at least, bearable. Thank you for reading.

You gotta go see a urologist, that's the first thing.
