Getting Older With Peyronie's

Dear Wandajean

Thank you very much for sharing your story with My Peyronie's readers. It is really helpful to hear the women's point of view.

Unfortunately, we men sometimes forget that sex is not only about having intercourse, it is also about intimacy. And many (including myself) believe that to stop being intimate is more of a risk to any relationship than not being able to have sexual intercourse.

Ten years are a long time for not being intimate. You both may not be able to do the things you used to do but there are other things you can do to stay intimate, to nurture your relationship and feelings for each other.

You two need to talk together about how you both feel. You may even want to seek professional help to guide you through your discussions.

The following articles on My Peyronie's website may also be helpful read for both of you:

You don't say what your husband has done about his condition. There may be options available to him, e.g. to help him to achieve and maintain erection. Ideally, he should see a doctor and discuss his options. These articles may be useful read at this stage:

I wish you both all the best. You have already taking the first step by reaching out and sharing your story. And if there is anything I may be able to assist you, or your husband with, don't hesitate to contact me.

Kind regards,
