A Slightly Curved or Bent Erect Penis - May Indicate Beginning Stages of Peyronie's Disease
A slight curve or bend in an erect penis may be initial stages of Peyronie’s disease. A quick penis health check should reveal an erect penis that is perfectly straight.

What Is Peyronie’s Disease?
A slight curvature or bend in an erect penis ( http://www.man1health.com ) may indicate early stages of Peyronie’s Disease. Peyronie’s disease is extreme curving, bending or even shortening of an erect penis. Peyronie’s occurs when an erect penis curves or bends either up or down or to the side. The penis may also get shorter by as much as 1/3 of it’s original size. A major cause of Peyronie’s is damage to connective tissue within penis. Injury often comes from rough sex or aggressive masturbation or simply poor penis health care. The injured connective tissue creates scar tissue (plaque) and this results in a curved, bent or shortened erect penis. Peyronie’s can also result in painful erections and can cause difficulty having sexual intercourse. A healthy penis should be perfectly straight when erect without the slightest bend or curve.
What Causes Peyronie’s Disease?
Although the exact causes are not clear, a build up of scar tissue along the shaft of the penis can result in a bend in the penis, and, when extreme can become Peyronie’s disease. Vigorous sexual activity can damage the connective tissue of the penis and create plaque beneath the surface of the penis skin. Masturbation, particularly “dry rubbing”, can also cause this plaque to build up and contribute to a bend in the penis. By some estimates, up to thirty percent of men develop a slight curving to erect penis that may eventually lead to Peyronie’s at some point during their lives.
Can Peyronie’s Be Cured?
Sadly, once the penis has Peyronie’s indicated by an extreme bend or curve in erect penis it cannot be cured. Although some surgeries exist, none are completely proven to work for all men. The best treatment at present is the application of certain essential vitamins and minerals while the penis is still healthy or has only a slight bend or curve. These vitamins and minerals help to preserve the integrity of the connective tissue in the penis, and prevent further curvature and possible loss of length.
Preventing and Treating the Causes of Peyronie’s
The best way to prevent Peyronie’s through prevention is by maintaining a healthy penis regimen. Avoid dry rubbing and keeping penis skin moisturized can help reduce the possibility of getting Peyronie’s. Since a lack of necessary vitamins and minerals can also result in a pronounced curvature of the penis – supplying those vitamins and minerals directly to the skin of the penis can help prevent additional damage to penis connective tissue and may alleviate some of the initial symptoms.
Since Peyronie’s can be caused by damage to the connective tissue beneath the skin of the penis, use penis specific vitamins ( http://www.man1health.com ) and minerals that help preserve that connective tissue. Vitamin E, for example helps to moisturize the skin and keeps it supple. Alpha Lipoic Acid is a mineral that often helps preserve cell health, and can help keep penis tissue firm and strong.
Which Vitamins and Minerals Help Prevent Damage to Penis ?
Acetyl L Carnitine, Alpha Lipoic Acid, Vitamin B5 and Vitamin C can help prevent penis damage and will contribute to overall penis health. Certain vitamins help maintain the elasticity and smoothness of penis tissue, while also providing the penis with the vitamins and minerals it needs to stay healthy and strong. Additional benefits of these vitamins and minerals include: increased circulation and increased sensitivity. A penis specific crème should include Vitamins A, E, C, B5 and, of course D. Other proven beneficial penis health supplements include Acetyl L Carnitine, Alpha Lipoic Acid and L Arginine each of which should be applied to penis as a crème for maximum results in maintaining penis health.
