Overview
What is Peyronie’s Disease?
Peyronie’s disease is a condition in which fibrous scar tissue, known as a plaque, develops within the penis. This can cause abnormal curvature, pain, shortening or changes in penile shape during erection.
Penile curvature may also be congenital, meaning it has been present since development rather than being caused by Peyronie’s disease. Proper evaluation helps distinguish between these conditions and determine whether treatment is required.
Important: Mild curvature does not always require treatment. However, increasing curvature, painful erections, difficulty during intercourse or associated erectile dysfunction should be evaluated by a specialist. Treatment depends on whether the condition is active or stable and how much it affects sexual function.
Causes
What Causes Peyronie’s Disease & Penile Curvature?
Scar Tissue Formation
Abnormal healing can lead to development of fibrous plaque inside the penis.
Penile Injury
Repeated minor trauma or penile injury may contribute to scar tissue formation.
Genetic Factors
Some men may have a greater tendency to develop abnormal fibrous tissue.
Connective Tissue
Peyronie’s disease may occur alongside conditions involving abnormal scar tissue
Congenital Curvature
Some men are born with penile curvature that becomes more noticeable during erections.
Cause May Be Unknown
In many patients, there is no clear history of a specific injury or identifiable trigger.

Diagnosis
How We Diagnose Peyronie’s Disease
A detailed evaluation helps assess the location of the plaque, degree of curvature, penile length, erectile function and impact on sexual activity.
- Medical & Sexual History – Evaluates duration, pain, progression of curvature and difficulty during intercourse.
- Physical Examination – Checks for penile plaques, deformity and other associated conditions.
- Curvature Assessment – Photographs or a medically induced erection may be used to accurately measure the degree and direction of curvature.
- Penile Doppler Ultrasound – May be advised in selected patients to assess penile blood flow, erectile dysfunction or vascular anatomy before certain procedures.
