Sexual Issues:
If you or your partner is struggling with and/or has been diagnosed with a medical condition making physical intimacy difficult, (including Peyronie’s Disease), there are probably many emotions emerging, i.e. depression, frustration, anxiety, resentment, etc. The emotional issues ought to be addressed in an effort to achieve the most positive outcomes; physically, emotionally and relationally.
