Tunica Albuginea is the whitish membrane within the penis that surrounds the spongy chambers of Corpora Cavernosa. For reasons unknown to science at this moment, scar tissue begins to form in the Tunica Albuginea. This tissue prevents the normal expansion of the penis during erections and, in time, forms a permanent bend in the penis to one side or the other.



At first, the disease is painful but the pain eventually goes away on its own. You don't need to resort to painkillers or to fear falling into the trap of long-term abuse of such pills. Curvature is the only effect of this disease. It is visible when the penis is erect, and possibly a shortening of the penis in the flaccid state. Most men suffering from it are able to have sex with their partners and experience no pain during intercourse. Nevertheless, as the angle of the curvature draws close to 90 degrees, intercourse becomes more and more of a problem.

The disease can affect men of all races and ages. It is most commonly seen in Caucasian males ages 40 and up. It is not contagious and is in no way related to cancer or other serious conditions. There is no known universal cure and some of the men which science was able to help have experienced relapses. The list of treatments developed to fight Peyronie's disease is quite large, but not one of them was proved to be the best solution to the problem.

One of the most recommended treatments is surgery. Severe cases are always solved through the insertion of implants via surgical intervention. A couple of years ago, surgery were the method of choice for treating Peyronie's disease because there were no proven alternatives.

?Penile implants - inlude plastic cylinders, either solid or inflatable, which are placed inside the Corpora Cavernosa. The surgeon can either place the implants inside the penis or let them do the work of straightening out the organ, or he can try to bend the penis against the plaque in order to increase the implant's chance of successfully correcting the curvature.

?The use of tissue grafts - it is another widespread way of attempting to treat Peyronie's disease. This procedure entails the complete surgical removal of the lump of plaque that develops on the penis and straightening the penis in order to bring it back to the original shape. Doctors tend to advise patients to accept this approach in cases featuring large plaques or severely bent penises.

?Nesbit Procedure ? it is the most widely used method for straightening congenital curvature of the. During this procedure the penis is filled with a sterile physiologic salt solution in order to cause an artificial erection. The surgeon gathers with a clamp the outer side of the bend, which forces the Tunica Albuginea to straighten the penis.

?The use of Collagenase or Verapamil injections ? it is one of the treatments that focus on the use of Collagenase injections to break down the plaque and remove it or Verapamil injections to prevent new plaque from forming. One of the most popular treatments uses Vitamin E to help the skin heal and reduce the plaque. Since the skin healing properties of Vitamin E have been known for quite some time, the use of this vitamin to contain Peyronie's has been a popular solution since the 1940s.

?Potaba ? it is another widespread treatment, a short form of the proper technical name: Potassium aminobenzoate. Recent studies have shown that Potaba can help men suffering from Peyronie's disease to a certain extent, but it's unclear how effective this substance is.

Using a traction device to straighten the penis is considered one of the best ways of dealing with Peyronie's disease. Despite all the controversies, several clinical studies have assessed that using traction devices is an effective technique. Part of SizeGenetics? penis enlargement program is the traction device that works by forcing the tissue that makes up the penis to expand instead of retracting and increasing the curve. By using the device on a regular basis, the men who took part in clinical studies have been able to reduce their curvatures and maintain or increase the size of their penises.

SizeGenetics? package includes a free membership to PenisHealth?, the penis exercises program featuring a series of exercises designed to decrease the curvature caused by Peyronie's disease. As a member of this program, you can learn how to add inches to the length and girth of your penis, fix curvatures, avert premature ejaculation and sustain sexual fitness that you need.
