Understanding Peyronies Disease
Peyronies disease is a curvature of the penis caused by abnormal scarring of the tunica albuginea. The tunica albuginea is the tough sheath that holds the corpora cavernosa, and they hold the blood that causes an erection. When a man has Peyronies disease the scarring on the tunica albuginea prevents that part of the corpora cavernosa from enlarging during an erection.
When part of the penis cannot expand, the penis bends or curves or shows bumps and indentations. Once the scarring of Peyronies disease starts, in spreads over more and more of the tunica albuginea. The deformations can make intercourse impossible and can cause severe pain.
No one knows just what causes Peyronies disease. Researchers speculate that it begins with tiny, unnoticed injuries to the penis. There seems to be some genetic component and it is more common in men of northern European descent than in other populations.
Although men as young as their twenties can have Peyronies disease, it is most common among men between forty five and sixty five.
Because of the deformity, men may become anxious and women may be repelled, so that intercourse is a problem even when the disease does not make it so. But as Peyronies disease progresses, the curvature of the penis can be so pronounced and the pain so severe that intercourse is impossible.
Sometimes the penis gets rigid up to the scarred area and stays flaccid past that point. Or, the penis may narrow right at the scar tissue in an hour-glass shape. When the penis is very curved, intercourse is painful for both parties.
Peyronies disease has its phases of improvement with no treatment at all, and about half the time Peyronies disease will stop progressing on its own.
