Can a man with Peyronie’s disease utilize sex toys in his private life? Many men with a severely bent penis have wondered about this, and it’s a very legitimate question. While not strictly penis health issue, it does speak to the ability of a man to enjoy sex, so exploring this question is quite valid.

Peyronie’s

Many men have a curve in their penis. Instead of being perfectly straight, it bends a little to the left or right, or perhaps up or down. Indeed, many men are especially proud of having a bent penis, feeling that the slight curvature gives their organ distinction. And many women find a little curvature aesthetically appealing. More than one female has found that a penis that curves at just the right angle is actually more prone to reach her sensitive spots during sex.

But when a man has a curve that is too pronounced, it can be another story. Most men with excessive curvature are said to have Peyronie’s disease. This occurs when the connective tissue in the penis is kept from doing its job. For example, if there is trauma to the penis – such as rough handling during sex (partner-based or solo) or if the penis experiences a sharp blow, especially when erect – it may cause some of the tissue to rupture or tear. When the body goes about healing this tear, it does so by creating a thin layer of scar tissue. If tears and trauma keep recurring, more and more scar tissue is built up – and this can cause the problem.

The scar tissue lacks the flexibility of the connective tissue it is replacing. As more scar tissue builds up, the penis has less flexibility when it goes from a flaccid state to an erect one. If, for instance, there is a large degree of scar tissue on the top of the penis, then when the penis becomes erect, there is less room for it grow on top. The underside of the penis continues to grow at the rate to which it is accustomed, but the top “runs out” of connective tissue, causing the penis to curve upward.

Many men with Peyronie’s find it does not affect them in the least. Some, however, find that the degree of curvature makes penetration difficult, or the inflexibility of the scar tissue causes pain when the penis becomes erect.

Sex toys to help?

For men for whom sexual activity is impeded due to their Peyronie’s, the use of sex toys might be valuable. The sex toy most frequently suggested for men with Peyronie’s is a penis sleeve. This is a hollowed-out, penis-shaped toy, usually made of silicon, plastic or rubber, meant to fit over a man’s own penis. Some men with a bent penis have found this can straighten the bend in their penis while they are wearing it (although the curve returns when the sleeve is removed). Many of the sleeves come equipped with features, such as rings or bumps, which can provide extra stimulation to both the penis and the vagina.

Sometimes the degree of curvature of a man’s penis is not the problem; rather, the scar tissue build-up deadens the sensation in the penis, making the ability to maintain an erection difficult. Wearing a penis ring (or a vibrating penis ring) helps some men with this issue.

Of course, many men with a bent penis require no sex toys to achieve a happy sex life. But like all men, they do need to keep their penis health at a high level, and application of a top rate penis health crème (health professionals recommend Man1 Man Oil, which is clinically proven mild and safe for skin) can help with that. It’s best to select a crème with both L-arginine and L-carnitine. The former is an amino acid that helps keep penis blood vessels receptive to increased blood flow. The latter, meanwhile, is neuroprotective and can aid a man in maintaining a proper degree of penis sensitivity and sensation.
