This disease, for which there is no satisfactory treatment, results from injury during intercouse and the subsequent formation of penile scar tissue. This scar tissue in inflecible and causes the penis to curve during erection. Approximately 6% of middle age men have this condition.

When I developed this condition, I was unaware that a disease like this even existed. In frustration, I started an informational website, Every email I get describes a man in a desperate situation with nowhere to turn. Urologists must do a better job of informing patients about this disorder and there should be additional research efforts to find an effective treatment.
