Surgery for Peyronie's: what are the options?
Peyronie's causes a curve in the penis from scar tissue.
The short answer
Peyronie's causes a curve in the penis from scar tissue.
A closer look
Surgery can help if the curve is stable for several months and makes sex hard. Options include plication, which shortens the longer side to straighten it.
Grafting adds tissue to the shorter side. A penile implant can straighten the curve and treat ED at the same time.
What you can do next
If a curve is affecting sex, schedule a visit to talk about options.
