What Is It?
Peyronie’s disease is a condition that causes the development of fibrous scar tissue, or plaques, inside the penis. These plaques can cause the penis to bend or become curved during an erection, making sexual intercourse difficult or even impossible. Peyronie’s disease can also cause pain, discomfort, and erectile dysfunction.
The exact cause of Peyronie’s disease is unknown, but it is thought to be related to trauma or injury to the penis, genetic factors, or an autoimmune disorder. The condition is more common in middle-aged and older men, although it can occur at any age.
Peyronie’s disease can have a significant impact on a man’s quality of life, causing stress, anxiety, and depression. It can also lead to relationship difficulties and a decrease in self-esteem. Seeking prompt medical treatment for Peyronie’s disease is important to address both the physical and psychological effects of the condition.
