Abstract: The Peyronie's Disease Questionnaire (PDQ) has been instrumental in providing standardized, patient-centered evaluation of Peyronie's disease. However, the evolving understanding of sexual health and diversity invites a re-examination of this tool's underlying assumptions. This Perspective discusses the PDQ's current framework, its contributions, and its limitations, particularly in capturing the heterogeneity of patients' sexual experiences. Drawing from the developmental pathways of other sexual health instruments, we reflect on the importance of inclusivity in questionnaire design and the potential benefits of future revisions or alternative tools that better reflect contemporary clinical and sociocultural realities.
