Cook Medical , announced the launch of www.MensHealthPD.com, an informational microsite dedicated to educating physicians, men and their partners about the symptoms, treatment options and latest research on Peyronie’s disease, a common form of erectile dysfunction thought to affect more than 80, 000 men in the UK, with one study suggesting 1% of the male population may suffer. MensHealthPD.com is designed to provide the latest information on the painful ailment and also offers medical professionals, patients and their partners public and physician forums for discussing the disease, posting questions and sharing personal experiences about the condition.
For many men and their partners, erectile dysfunctions, such as Peyronie’s disease, are embarrassing and uncomfortable to discuss. It is also often difficult to find a centralised repository on the web with the helpful information needed to obtain answers on these conditions. MensHealthPD.com is changing all this by offering these individuals a one-stop, discreet Peyronie’s resource armed with the following assets:
- Video answers to the most commonly asked questions about Peyronie’s disease provided by some the world’s leading Peyronie’s doctor experts.
- A Q&A forum where patients, partners and doctors can discuss available Peyronie’s treatments, exchange ideas on coping with the disease and more.
- Details of the signs, symptoms and progression of Peyronie’s disease.
- A helpful list of questions to prepare a man afflicted with Peyronie’s for his first doctor’s visit
Many men living with Peyronie’s disease go untreated because so few GPs understand the disease. In fact, a recent study showed that over half of primary care physicians were unsure any effective treatments for the disease existed. Therefore, many men never get referred to a urologist who may be able to treat the condition.
MensHealthPD.com will serve as a single source where GPs, urologists and other physicians from around the world can access the latest peer-reviewed research on Peyronie’s treatment options as well as other relevant published scientific data. The following resources are available on the microsite to educate these doctors on the wide array of treatment options available for Peyronie’s sufferers:
- A summary of current surgical and non-surgical treatment options with links to the most current published research.
- Generic ultram pills no prescription The latest peer-reviewed research on Peyronie’s disease posted in the MEDLINE database of citations and abstracts and indexed through PubMed, offered by the US National Library of Medicine and the National Institutes of Health (NIH).

Raj Persad, a Consultant Urologist at United Bristol Healthcare NHS explains: "This is a distressing disease with huge potential psychosexual impact.

This website will benefit both clinicians and patients alike in enabling the sharing of experience and information which could be of benefit to all’
About Peyronie’s Disease
Peyronie’s disease, also known as penile curvature, is estimated to affect nearly four out of every 100 males between the ages 45 and 65[3]. The disease is linked to erectile dysfunction in 20 to 40 percent of the sufferers and is characterised by the formation of a plaque or hardened scar tissue beneath the skin of a man’s penis. The scarring is non-cancerous and may lead to a painful erection and curvature of the penis during erection.
