When people speak of the "active" period of Peyronies being 6-18 months, do they mean that the plaques calcify at the end of that period, or are they still somewhat malleable before calcium begins to accumulate? I'll be at 18 months on the 28th, and I'm still doing traction. I still get a lot of pain on some my scars, since some seem to have only appeared in the last year or less (the first two appeared on the 28th of February, 2018). If calcification is not a guaranteed progression, should I continue traction and maybe upgrade to VED, or is 18 months too late for VED?
Calcification is not guaranteed but you should rather consider it simply the worst stage. Even so, even calcification has degrees and can reverse or "soften." I just mean, try not to really worry about that and just take more action. Do traction and VED as much as it helps. For me, traction always helps, so I never will stop. If you have pain on your scars, have you changed your diet or fasted?
