What we sort out when a curve and erectile dysfunction arrive together
We examine the curve, the quality of the erection, and what you have already tried. We offer Xiaflex as an in-office collagen injection for Peyronie’s disease, and we offer a penile implant for men whose ED has not responded to other treatment; when both problems are present, the implant discussion can include straightening at the time of surgery, as our Peyronie’s and implant pages describe.
A local care line for this combined question
You can be seen in Johns Creek or Cumming. Call us at 678-344-8900, or book a slot online, and bring any photographs or prior treatments you were given for the curve. Our Peyronie’s page and our erectile-dysfunction page sit next to this article if you want the wider context before you come in.
