Hi and welcome to MansMatters, the erectile dysfunction and Peyronie’s disease shockwave clinic. Today, I want to talk to you about Peyronie’s disease and high blood pressure.
Most people who suffer from high blood pressure (hypertension) are aware that it increases their chances of a heart attack, stroke, or kidney failure. However, many are not aware that it can also be a significant contributory factor in the development of Peyronie’s disease.
Our bodies require blood pressure in order for blood to circulate from our heart through our arteries, blood vessels, and veins. With high blood pressure, the heart has to work harder to pump the same amount of blood around our vascular system. Our arteries are designed to stretch in response to fluctuations in blood pressure, helping us cope with everyday events like eating, sleeping, exercise, or stress. However, with high blood pressure, the arteries begin to stiffen, lose their flexibility, and narrow. As they narrow, fatty material starts to cling to the sides, clogging up the flow of blood and contributing to the development of Peyronie’s disease in some patients.
Many patients are prescribed beta blockers, which reduce blood pressure by slowing the heart rate and decreasing the force of the heartbeat. Unfortunately, there is a recognised association between beta blockers and the development of Peyronie’s disease. This can lead to pain and an increased curvature of the penis, which worsens over a 12 to 18 month period. As a result, many men find it difficult or impossible to have comfortable sex.
There is a solution for this: focused shockwave therapy. In over 90 percent of the patients we’ve treated with focused shockwave therapy, we have successfully straightened their penis and avoided the need for painful invasive surgery.
