• Peyronie’s Disease
  Peyronie's (pa-ro-NEEZ) disease is characterized as the abnormal curvature of an erect penis, and can result in sexual dysfunction.  Peyronie's disease occurs over a wide range of ages, with some men as young as 18.  The curvature is caused by scar tissue in the erectile tissue that prevents the straightening of the penis.  A hard, fibrous layer of scar tissue, or "plaque," develops under the skin on the upper or lower side of the penis. When the penis is erect, the scar tissue pulls the affected area off at an angle, causing a curved penis.  The plaque is benign (non-cancerous).  Read More

• Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH)
  Benign Prostatic Hypertrophy, known as BPH, is often associated with erectile dysfunction and/or ejaculatory problems.  BPH refers to the increase in size of the prostate.  When the prostate gland becomes sufficiently large, it causes an obstruction of the urethra which interferes with the normal flow of urine. It leads to symptoms of urinary hesitancy, frequent urination, increased risk of urinary tract infections and urinary retention and erectile dysfunction.  Read More
