Peyronie's Disease & Low Testosterone

Testosterone deficiency and Peyronie's Disease often occur around the same time in life and may contribute to challenges with intimacy, including difficulties in achieving or maintaining firmness for satisfactory sexual experiences.

The Link Between Testosterone Levels and Peyronie's Disease

It has been hypothesised that Peyronie's Disease and testosterone levels may be linked, and multiple studies have investigated this connection. In five of the six studies, a correlation was identified, while the sixth yielded inconclusive results.

A more recent study, published in a peer-reviewed medical journal, examined how testosterone levels relate to Peyronie's Disease and explored whether lower levels may influence the severity of the condition.

Investigating Testosterone Levels in Peyronie's Disease

The study found minimal differences in testosterone levels among men with Peyronie's Disease. It also indicated that neither curvature nor the severity of the condition showed any relationship with lower testosterone levels. However, men with Peyronie's Disease are more likely to experience lower testosterone, suggesting that reduced testosterone levels are a common feature among men with both Erectile Dysfunction and Peyronie's Disease, rather than a direct cause.
