Episode 79: Penile Traction, from Gimmick to Legitimate Therapy

Penile traction, once considered a potential gimmick, has evolved into a recognized and legitimate therapy for the treatment of Peyronie's disease. Peyronie's disease is a condition characterized by the development of fibrous scar tissue within the penis, leading to curvature, pain, and potential difficulties with sexual function. Penile traction involves the use of mechanical devices that gently apply a stretching force to the penis over a period of time. This continuous stretching is believed to help remodel the scar tissue, reducing curvature and improving overall penile function.


Over the years, clinical studies and medical research have provided evidence supporting the efficacy of penile traction as a therapeutic intervention for Peyronie's disease. While the exact mechanisms of action are not fully understood, the gradual stretching is thought to promote tissue remodeling and collagen degradation. As a non-invasive and non-surgical option, penile traction has gained acceptance among healthcare professionals as a conservative approach to managing Peyronie's disease. The shift from skepticism to recognition underscores the importance of exploring innovative and evidence-based therapies in the field of urology, offering patients alternatives that may improve their quality of life and intimate relationships.

Join Landon Trost, MD as he discusses this new therapy.
