My husband and I have been struggling with his peyronie's for 20 some years. I would have to say its been the biggest challenge of our marriage. His condition developed about 5 years into our marriage and our sex life has struggled ever since. While we are still able to engage in intercourse, it is often a painful, burdensome and awkward ordeal. Due to my husband's size, there is enough length after his 60 degree leftward bend to still have intercourse, but it puts us in some difficult and painful positions which have never been totally satisfiying. We are looking for any advice out there from people with our history. We have not told anyone about this. My husband's doctor once recommended a urology referral but my husband couldn't bear dealing with this. WE have never had any treatment. Please help!!

Remaining hopeful,

Donna

Oh Donna,
There is so much that can be done now, from supplements to heavy duty surgeries. You can find something that works. Tell us all you can about his history and current condition. With almost 7,000 members here, someone has had the same and can offer advice. I am glad you found us. Please read the info documents for a crash course on Peyronies Disease. You will learn much about what life looks like ahead of you. This ailment has no cure, but that does not mean it is hopeless.

Donna,
There is a section for women only that I just granted you access to. This may be helpful but I'm not sure there is much activity there as the far majority of our members are men for obvious reasons. Kudos to you for helping your husband.

Hey Donna,

Like Norm said, there is so much that can be done to combat the disease.
It takes a while to familiarize yourself with treatments so take it slow and on sure hell find some improvement in time.

Hello. Sorry to hear what you two are dealing with.

From your initial post, it sounds like his Peyronies Disease has stabilized and he has not suffered loss of length, or had plenty to start with.

Have you tried to get your husband to join the discussion here and start thinking about seeing a urologist?

My husband is not yet at the point of discussing this openly with others. I believe it has been a source of shame for years. I have broached the topic gently and lovingly many times over the years but have always decided to let it go rater than embarras him. As far as it stabilizing im not sure. I think it has gradually worsened especially in the last ten years. I know he has pain especially during erections and even when i manipulate him when soft but he tries not to let on w me most of the time. He has always been tremendously well endowed so even if he lost length it has fortunately not been an issue. In fact if it wasnt for his excess length im not sure he would have been able to function as much as we have. Donna

If he is afraid to go to a urologist then he might want to follow some of the suggestions in the Peyronies Survival Guide https://www.peyroniesforum.net/index.php/topic,3180.0.html

It boggles my mind how your husband considers his peyronie's to be a source of shame -- to the extreme degree that he won't even see a doctor.
