In Peyronie’s disease a hard tissue (plaque) forms in the inner lining of the penis. Because it does not stretch on erection, the penis bends towards it.
The disease usually passes through two stages: an active stage in which pain and curvature can change, then a stable stage in which the curvature settles.
The plaque is benign and does not turn into cancer. However, the curvature often does not correct itself.
If the disease is active or the curvature is mild, non-surgical paths are discussed first. Your doctor decides at the examination which option suits you.
The curvature can change until the disease is stable, so the decision for surgery is usually made once it has settled.

Before surgery it was clearly explained to me what would be done to preserve function.
It was a consultation I could ask my men’s-health questions in, without being rushed.
I was discharged on the fourth day after surgery and back at work a week later.
