Peyronie's (Curvature of the Penis) Remedies
Overview:
"Curvature of the penis is an abnormal bend in the penis that occurs during erection. It is also called Peyronie's disease.
Causes
In Peyronie's disease, fibrous scar tissue develops under the skin of the penis. The cause of this fibrous tissue is not known.
The condition occurs in about 388 of 100,000 men. Peyronie's disease is relatively uncommon and affects men ages 40 - 60 and older.
Curvature of the penis has been associated with Dupuytren's contracture. This is a cord-like thickening across the palm of one or both hands. It is a fairly common disorder in white men over age 50. However, only a very small number of people with Dupuytren's contracture develop curvature of the penis.
Other risk factors have not been found. However, people with this condition have a certain type of immune cell marker, which indicates the condition may be inherited.
Newborns may have a curvature of the penis, which may be part of an abnormality called hypospadias (this is different from Peyronie's disease)."

GENERAL FEEDBACK
02/27/2012: Junkman from Cleveland, Ohio, U S: "This used to be my problem as a school child. I wore normal old school (white underwear). During puberty and I would get erections in class contantly as normal kids do, well it always went to the left because it had to pick a direction in my pants. Because of that constant happening for me when I was naked and got an erection it would always go to the left slightly in a curve. This stopped when I became more hippie style and stopped wearing underwear. I would get hardons but it wouldnt be so resticted by the underwear and it became straighter and so then I helped it along by trying (not too hard) to straighten by bending it back whenever I got a hardon."

Believe me, I've tried everything in the book. What have I been doing as of late? I began seeing a TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) practitioner who has been treating me with acupuncture, moxabustion, blood-letting/cupping & has put me on an herbal powder called Yunnan Baiyao. In addition, I have been taking shilajit (mixed with the Yunnan Baiyao powder). I have also been using Blue Emu as a massage cream & it does wonders for the aches & pains."

Replies06/30/2010: John from Hampton, Va. replies: "Hey Dave, Research acetyl-l-carnitine. I have heard that it may help."
07/01/2010: Tom from Regina, Sk replies: "David:
SSKI is "saturated solution potassium iodide."
I'm not sure of the size bottle it's available in but, I think it's available off the shelf at pharmacies, or else at a compounding pharmacy.
Dupuytren's contracture" and "Peyronie's disease" are two "fibrotic" conditions that can be helped considerably by SSKI. In Dupuytren's contracture, thickening (fibrosis) occurs along one of the tendons in the palm in the hand, pulling the related finger down towards the palm. As the problem progresses, the finger often can't be straightened any more.
In Peyronie's disease, a very similar thickening occurs along the shaft of the penis, making erections increasingly "curved" and painful. In both cases, rubbing SSKI into the thickened tissue at least twice daily softens and lessens the fibrotic area over a period of several months allowing for more normal function.
For these conditions, it's additionally helpful to take para-aminobenzoic acid (PABA) 2 grams, three times daily and to rub a mixture of Vitamin E and DMSO into the thickened areas, also. However, if "caught early", SSKI alone will often "do the job". (It's also advisable to have glucose-insulin tolerance test done, as there's an unusually high incidence of "insulin resistance" in people with Dupuytren's contracture or Peyronie's disease.

07/01/2010: David from Nashville, Tn replies: "Thanks John!! I didn't think I would get a reply to this one. I will read more about acetyl-l-carnitine."
10/10/2010: Sherynb from Milwaukee, Wi replies: "If you haven't worked with a urologist who specializes in Peyronie's you might try to find one. If it's not caused by an injury, it's generally an inflammatory process, and aside from cooling the inflammation in your body generally... GENTLE vacuum pressure can slowly straighten the curvature (yeah, the vacuum pumps sex shops advertise). But getting too enthusiastic with it will only exacerbate the problem, so I'd recommend the supervision of a knowledgeable physician if you can find one."
03/07/2012: Km from Ny replies: "Take a look at this website as I believe it is one of the better sites on this topic.http://www.peyroniessociety.org/
They don't sell anything. It is pretty much a patient advocacy site. Lots of sharing of experiences and research papers. Most everything discussed above so far can be found on this site and more.
I will warn those about predatory websites on Peryronies disease that promise a solution with their elixer. There is no silver bullet. Watch out for false profits. Some people improve but it is often achieved with a variety of lifestyle and supplement changes.
According to many testimonials on the site, following a medical grade vacuum pump therapy protocol is a common theme in healing."
03/23/2012: Beesting from Santiago, Chile replies: "The plaque within the penile, called peyronies, is the same plaque plated on one´s teeth! The driving force to this deformity of the penile is the immune system and its need to protect damaged parts of the body! Sexually, many animals mate only a few times a year! Humans mate excessively all their adult lives! So as in a tennis player having tennis elbow, overly aggressive sex in men produce peyronies, bent penis! The story gets much worse for peyronies has 7 levels of deformity! Of course the immune system does not stop there, over use of the sexual organs requires continued repairing via of plaque depositions elsewhere, like within the prostate gland and both testicles no less! I have presented several letters online. If interested a simple search on Google with keywords, peyronies, beesting should be helpful.signed, beesting"
