Research on Peyronies
The health problem of an unknown origin that attacks
the male reproductive organ is known as the Peyronies
disease. It is a condition that is very difficult to
study and/or treat. All the symptoms in this condition
may vary except that one or more fibrous scar nodules
may be found under the skin along the wall of the penis.
The scar causes a curvature or bending of the penis
when erect and this condition is therefore also called
the “bent penis disease”. Very often the
curvature is so severe and painful for both the partners
that it also causes erectile
dysfunction and thus impotence causing difficulty
in sexual intercourse. This becomes a cause of worry
regarding sexual health.
This dreaded disease is not so uncommon and occurs
in 3 out of 100 men above the age of 40 all over the
world. The basic problem of PD is the scar which causes
pain, deformity and loss of sexual activity.
This disease is called the “doctor’s nightmare”
as it is the most confusing and difficult condition
in urology to treat. Right now, there is no particular
treatment for the scar because every treatment given
has met only with little or varied success. Men with
Peyronies disease have
frequently been told that there is no real treatment
for this and that they will have to learn to live with
the condition and even the pain. But there is constant
research going on and a new hopeful therapy recently
being researched upon is of the enzymes nattokinase
and serrapeptase which are showing an increased amount
of success.
“An enzyme is a protein molecule which starts
or speeds up a chemical process without being used up
or consumed in the process that it affects. Enzymes
start or continue many thousands of complex chemical
reactions that occur continuously throughout the body.”
These are also been called "the fountain of life"
because without them life is nonexistent. Above 3,000
protein-based enzymes start or speed up over 7,000 vital
reactions in the body. Most enzymes are extremely specific
in what they do; those enzymes of use to PD - nattokinase,
serrapeptase and brome lain - give growing evidence
they have great capacity to reduce the fibrous material
of the PD scar.
Using these enzymes to treat PD is to try and use the
natural process of breaking up and eliminating abnormal
fibrous tissue and foreign proteins. This is what these
enzymes seem to be designed to do - break up the unwanted
tissues that should not be there, like the nasty PD
scar. The body has an intelligence that can tell the
presence of abnormal cells and tissue elements, and
removes them when and where possible so using these
enzymes to treat PD is to take advantage of that intelligence.
So to use enzyme therapy is to use the latest and most
recent science technology to help give aid and stimulus
to the body’s defence mechanism.
