A High Proportion of Peyronie's Disease Patients Experience Erectile Dysfunction
It is common for men with Peyronie's disease to experience difficulty achieving sufficient rigidity for intercourse. While some patients may have had erectile issues before the onset of Peyronie's disease, in most cases, this challenge worsens as the condition progresses.
Both erectile dysfunction and Peyronie's disease have a direct correlation, and both can be effectively treated with Focused Shockwave Therapy (FSWT).
Understanding the Physiology of the Male Reproductive System.
I In order for a man to achieve an erection, approximately 20 times the normal amount of blood needs to rapidly flow into and be retained within the male reproductive organ. This increased blood flow causes the organ to swell, becoming firm and rigid. In both conditions, plaque forms in the blood vessels, restricting blood flow.
With Peyronie's disease, this condition is exacerbated, becoming more pronounced as a lump of plaque typically forms on the side of the penis. As a result, the affected side cannot expand normally, causing the organ to bend.
A beneficial side effect of breaking down the Peyronie's disease plaque is the clearing and rejuvenation of the blood vessels. As a result, men undergoing treatment not only experience a straighter penis but also improve blood flow, allowing them to maintain erections for longer periods and enjoy intimacy once again.

Effective Shockwave Therapy for Peyronie's Disease and Erectile Dysfunction
Peyronie's Disease patients who have experienced moderate to severe blood flow issues may be prescribed shockwave therapy. This treatment has two main benefits:
Angiogenesis: The therapy stimulates the formation of new blood vessels, enhancing blood flow to the penis and improving erectile rigidity.
Neurogenesis: Shockwave therapy encourages the development of new nerve tissue, potentially increasing sensitivity and improving sexual function.
