Managing Peyronie’s Disease: The Importance of Regular Follow-up Care

Regular follow-up appointments are crucial for patients with Peyronie’s disease, especially those with milder forms who choose less aggressive treatment approaches.

For patients who opt for oral medications rather than more invasive treatments, consistent monitoring with your physician—typically a couple of times per year—allows both you and your doctor to assess changes in penile curvature over time.

These regular check-ups are valuable because they help track the progression of the condition. If the curvature worsens to the point where it begins causing pain or significantly impacts your ability to have satisfying intercourse, having established consistent care means these changes can be identified promptly.

The closer and more frequent your follow-up appointments, the better positioned your physician will be to recommend appropriate interventions when and if you decide more aggressive treatment is warranted.
