Title: Cialis is working
Post by: Godisreal on May 11, 2020, 03:23:38 AM
Been on Tadalafil for 2 weeks now and I'm already seeing improvements (curve lessening & better fill out flaccid, pain has also decreased by at least 75%). amazing!
However, my dick struggles to battle one hard plaque as well as filling out in full erections, so far.
Tricked my doc to prescribe me for erectile disfunction, got through with it after putting up a show lol... they refused to prescribe me for Peyronie's Disease.
Btw, my erection qualities are ridiculously good now when I'm on tadalafil.
Point is, I've barely started and it's already doing magic, so please if you're young like me, give cialis a chance! it might help you significantly.
A good friend of mine in the forum also mentioned that a specialist in his country said that being on low dose cialis for the rest of your life destroys the risk of future peyronie's (getting it again).
Seems legit regarding what I've read about the drug/drugs.
For those of you who've been asking me about DMSO, I received little to none positive feedback from usage, only good thing was it lowered inflammation, other than that, no success.
Let me know if you have questions.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21324095 - The role of PDE5 inhibitors in penile septal scar remodeling: assessment of clinical and radiological outcomes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION:

Effective oral medication for use in men with Peyronie's disease (Peyronies Disease) has been an area of interest of the medical community and lay public for decades. Isolated septal scars (ISS) without evidence of penile deformity is a relatively new clinical entity, and at present, there is paucity in the published literature regarding its treatment. Current research into the use of phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitors in regulating penile erectile response has revealed an alternative role for PDE5 inhibitors in decreasing oxidative stress-associated inflammatory change as seen in Peyronies Disease.
AIM:

To examine the presence of ISS and assess the efficacy of PDE5 inhibitor use in septal scar remodeling.
METHODS:

Retrospective review of prospective database on all men who underwent penile Doppler ultrasound between December 2007 and December 2009.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:

Of the 65 men with ultrasonographic-confirmed ISS, 35 men received tadalafil 2.5 mg daily over a 6-month period. The clinical outcomes between the two groups were compared using International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF)-5 score and 6 months penile Doppler ultrasound follow up.
RESULTS:

The mean age for the tadalafil group was 43.2 (20-65) years, similar to the control group at 44.2 (34-72) years. The length of time from onset to presentation was 22 (6 to 40) months. The majority of ultrasonographic-proven ISS was not clinically palpable and complaint of decreased penile rigidity (66%) was the predominant feature. Treatment with low-dose daily tadalafil did not result in any significant side effects (such as headache and flushing) or discontinuation. The tadalafil group reported higher IIEF-5 score (pretreatment 11/25 to post-treatment 18/25) (P < 0.01) and resolution of septal scar were recorded in 24 patients (69%) compared to three patients (10%) in the control group.
CONCLUSION:

Low-dose daily tadalafil is a safe and effective treatment option in septal scar remodeling.

This is great! So happy for you!

low dose Cialis really helped a lot with my ED as well. Waking up with great wood.

Now to stay consistent with traction and VED i'm hoping to see some significant improvement.

Thanks JJ! Appreciate it! I believe you will see improvements bro, since the three together are a very powerful combo (it seems). Please stay posting bro, cause I'm gonna start VED this week as well, and I wanna see how it goes for us.
I've also done traction-by-hand since it all started, with a few setbacks being ongoing inflammation causing more pain and so on, but other than that it feels like traction is helping me, especially with cialis combined.
Stay in touch and take care of yourself, mate.

Tadalafil in combination with VED is the only method that helps me. I take 2.5 mg / day. Low dose is sufficient. Started with 5mg but got bad heart burn. I have a significant curve and plaque in a few places. It smoothes a lot with this method. I really want to order a restorex to start traction but in Sweden it's not available and cannot be ordered from the states due to Corona.

GodIsReal - Thanks man, will definitely keep in touch, im looking at ordering restorex and also at some sarms that reverse fibrosis and maybe TRT soon as well. Have you considered Restorex?

DRESSA - There's a way to order the restorex via PArcl I think it's called - just do a forum search of restorex and it should show up. That's how I am planning to get it into Australia once Covid is over.

Keep us updated on all your progress guys!

Will do! Haven't really had it in my thoughts, personally, JJ, regarding restorex
I do have another question tho that would need some answers to; I have such a high erection angle that the scarring/plaque in my penis makes my fully erected penis incredibly immobile, i can barely push it down at all.
I've realized that penoplasty (only removal of the suspensory ligament) would "kill" the erection angle and you'd literally have the best mobility and movement in ur dick ever! These are facts, but I would like to hear your opinion on it! Of course I know it won't remove scarring lol, but it's my horrible current erection-angle I'm worried about.
There's some people who inject fat into their dicks in penoplasty, but that's not something I would do; cutting the ligament means you don't even touch the actual penis.

Cutting the ligament could result in an unstable penis which makes intercourse difficult.

If I understand correctly - your erection angle is very high ? This is not a result of Peyronies I assume? And did you have this high erection angle pre-peyronies?

As TonySa said, cutting the suspensory ligament can result in an unstable penis, there is also many risks in surgery itself. But i'm interested in hearing your opinion as there was a time when I thought I may have (still pondering this) a loose suspensory ligament and was considering having the surgery to remove both ligaments.

Does this high erection angle prevent penetration?

Also, have a look at NeoV's traction videos - I believe he also had a very high erection angle which he was able to improve via traction.

How is masturbation and intercourse with this high angle?
Title: Re: Cialis is working
Post by: Godisreal on May 18, 2020, 02:51:46 AM
Thanks for answering lads! Appreciate it. My erection angle has always been high, yes; however, the scarring (Peyronie's) has now made this high erection angle immovable. What I mean by that is, before, I could easily push down my erection with no problem, but the scarring i have in the present is now preventing this push-down (without hurting myself, which i obviously won't do).
This restricts the amount of positions I can have during sex and so on, very depressing, obviously.
I've heard about the lack of stability if you don't have the ligaments, but I can't really see why stability would be lost, since the penis is equally hard/filled with blood as before, just the very base is [unstable], but the ligaments are still not located in the penis.
Anyway, my high erection angle would be completely eliminated with a surgery like this, that's why it's very interesting. That means I would, in theory, have the same dick but with amazing mobility, and yes, possibly bad stability as well.
I think that the only way I can figure out how the outcome would be, would be if I talked to a specialist in penoplasty.
JJ, I'm glad that you've thought about it as well, but I don't consider it for length or girth gain, but only for the mobility that I'm missing so badly right now.

I'd check it out w a specialist then.

Hi GIR,

Great to see you have seen some positive results with the Cialis. I had a uro appointment in March and they prescribed me with Cialis, but not the Pentox that i was hassling them for. They just wouldn't budge. I've recently seen an overall decrease in overall length and girth and poorer erections night and day so I'm now going to start the Cialis. I never started the cialis before as I was worried about priapism or overly sensitive erectile mechanism. I heard someone else experienced that.

What time do you take the pill?

Cheers

2.5-5 mg night cialis at bedtime for remodeling scar tissue to healthy tissue or 50 mg viagra.

Good for you.
Such a sade state of affairs in europe that we have to lie to our docs to have success with this crap. Socialized medicine. Never go that route America!

You said the only thing dmso did for you is lower inflammation lol that's a lot. I would bath the remaining bugger plaque in dmso and ascorbic acid while keeping the blood flow high with cialis. 2-3 months and you should see further improvements. Add some careful traction or manual stretches with a fulcrum focused on the plaque/bend/where the hinge low point is.

I got on Cialis 2 months ago but it has now stopped working. or the peyronies has become too severe. im now completely impotent. when I got on Cialis I had very good erection quality, now even with 10mg its worse than before getting on it first time. I can't believe this is happening

I just started taking Cialis the other day, 2.5 mg.

I was feeling pretty good about it, and this thread had me thinking positively as well, until I got to Peter's posts. Now I'm nervous and second guessing myself and my progress.

anon,

Keep in mind that results vary between different people when it comes to treatments for Peyronie's. When dealing with this disease all you can do is follow the general treatments, give yourself time to heal, and go by your own experience. Don't be discouraged. More than likely, the extra blood flow that Cialis provides can only be helpful. Just give it time and keep an eye on yourself. Also, try your best not to obsess and stress. I know that is hard with this disease but stress can only hinder healing.
