Introduction, My Story

[roundvalley1738]

Age: 23
What did your medical doctor conclude: Peyronies; however, no plaque has been found and no ultrasound has been performed (insurance issues)

How long have you had symptoms: 3 months

What are your symptoms: Upward bend of ~25 degrees, pain during erection

What treatments have you tried and what were the results: Cialis for one month, just started pentox, ordered Restorex, on the market for a heating pad and a VED. Started an anti-inflammatory diet, supplements, dialed in sleep and reduced stress. No major progression, but pain has increased.

Do you have insurance or means to get medical treatment? Yes

Where are you in dealing with the psychological aspects of Peyronies Disease? In a very poor spot. Initially I jumped to the worst case and accepted I would never have penetrative sex again, never have children. Now I am hoping (cautiously) for the best, but live in fear of the bend suddenly worsening.

Are you in a relationship? Yes

Sorry you have joined our group here. Hopefully you can get many or your questions answered. 25 degrees should still be OK for penetrative intercourse, but I am well aware of the mind games that Peyronies can play.

Welcome, it's an unfortunate situation but I think you can figure it out. The curve doesn't sound too awful on description but I won't downplay it as everyone's situation and perception of it is different. Hope the pain goes away soon.

You're already doing good in that you chose to recognize this and go to the doctor, I waited about 4 months before doing anything, but happy I didn't wait longer.

Out of curiosity - do you have any pelvic floor / hip tightness / posture issues in your lower body that you know of?

Best of luck man, trying to figure it out as well but motivated to do so. Are you also thinking of beginning traction?
