I just read (https://www.dcurology.net/common-problems/peyronies-disease.php) that only about 20% of all plaques will become calcified. What is with the rest? Can they be detected by an ultrasound or needs something else?

I know that for me when I was taking Cialis I would automatically wake up when I had an extremely hard erection from it. Absolutely normal.

Something else which I might ask is have you ever had your testosterone levels checked? How is your libido and muscle mass?

Hi, I'm 47 years old and recently diagnosed with Peyronies after increasing difficulty and discomfort having intercourse with my wife over the last year. As a newcomer to the board, I'm particularly interested in exploring non-invasive self-help treatments and will be reading through them for recommendations on VED and traction devices.
Thanks for adding me. I'm sure I'll find the forum helpful and informative.

I've been on Tadalafil for over a year now.  Recently my morning erections have been crazy solid!  Sometimes they last for a few minutes. I'm not controlling them, just wake up that way.

Also for some reason around 4am every night I wake up and there it is.

Interesting study. Never taken Gotu Kola (centellicum) However I have in the past supplemented with 80mg Pycnogenol a day for a long period and did not notice any difference in ED or curvature. However I do not really understand the study. What is keloidial penile fibrosis?

Pycnogenol I felt was a very powerful anti oxidant overall but it was too expensive.

Hello Mike7
Thanks for the reply.
Peyronies Disease is mostly shortening and loss of girth.  No pain.
I did try a traction device after the first year or so, recommended by a urologist.  I kept at it initially without any perceived result, but as I look back may have quit too soon.  I did keep the device; thinking about trying again.  Peyronies Disease was stable for many years, but in the last year seems to have gotten worse.
VED I have not tried; I will look into comments on this forum from folks who have and may give that a shot.
I use 20mg of cialis currently, which works (sort of) sometimes.  I tried 40mg once, which gave me a feeling like heartburn but worked ok.
Thanks for the advice.

Experiencing multiple erections in a short span of time, especially due to stimulation like viewing sexy photos, is generally not dangerous. Erections occur as a result of increased blood flow to the penis, and they typically subside once the stimulation ceases.

However, if someone is concerned about potential damage or discomfort from frequent erections, it's a good idea to consult with a healthcare professional. They can provide personalized advice and address any specific concerns regarding penile health.

Hey there,

Glad to hear mostly positive news from your urologist visit in London! It's reassuring that both your urologist and the radiologist found the ultrasound Doppler results satisfactory. It's also good to know that they provided reassurance regarding the use of Viagra and the unlikely occurrence of priapism, especially given your experiences over the weekend.

It seems like your investigation is narrowing down, with the focus shifting away from mechanical concerns towards other potential factors contributing to your discomfort and slightly reduced EQ. It's wise of you to consider lifestyle changes like quitting pornography and masturbation to see if they alleviate your symptoms. Hopefully, this adjustment brings about the relief you're seeking.

Mr. Hussain Alnajjar sounds like a competent and compassionate professional, which is always invaluable when navigating health concerns. Keep us updated on your progress, and here's to hoping for even better news in your next update. Take care!
