is this promising? unfortunately they only did self assessment instead of making actual measurements but the results suggest a much better response to xiaflex in combination with Testosterone therapy. the men also were not hypogonadal and their T as well as free T where in range for their respective age group. yet, 80% reported an improvement compared to 50% with xiaflex only

Very interesting. I wonder if this would work with people with hourglassing but no significant curvature as well.

I have been on Testosterone therapy for 17 years and without it I feel like crap.  Testosterone's conversion in the body to DHT has antifibrotic properties which heals and helps the penis. [The trouble is that there aren't many Dr's who are clueless about how to treat a man correctly and successfully on it. They look at numbers and reference ranges without subjectively looking at the patient and their symptoms.  They don't understand specific tests and different modes of treatment for unresponsive patients. We are all a bit different in our genetic mand chemical makeup. ]  Sorry to rant on about HRT. :)

I'm very interested in this as well - I just began self-administered testosterone therapy.

Any idea where or what to do to get the Xiaflex in australia?
