Frequently Asked Questions
What is the main cause of Peyronie's disease?
The most common reason for Peyronie's disease to occur is through repeated injury or trauma. There is some indication that a family history can also contribute to contracting the disease. Those suffering from connective tissue diseases have also shown an increased likelihood of contracting the disease. If you fall under any of these categories, you may be at greater risk of developing the condition.
Can Peyronie's disease go away?
Peyronie's can go away with the help of a medical professional. In very rare cases the disease will end on its own, but the vast majority of people are going to need medical care in order to see any significant improvements.
What happens if Peyronie's is left untreated?
In a very small number of patients, Peyronie's can go away naturally; around 10% of those experiencing the condition will experience this. For the remaining 90%, though, they will either remain unchanged in their condition or continue to get worse, with the curve becoming more and more severe.
What does Peyronie's look like?
Peyronie's causes a significant and abnormal bend in the penis. This is often accompanied by feelings of pain. The bend typically occurs during an erection and will be noticeably different from normal curvature.
