New Guy From Alabama - Considering an Implant

Postby BamaRider » Wed Apr 03, 2024 3:49 pm

I have an urology appointment in a couple of weeks and will be discussing and implant. I have done the pill, pump and injection routines. I am really anxious about the whole process. I would really like to talk to a local guy about his experience and suggestions. I don't care about the guy's orientation. I live off of I-20 near the Georgia state line.

Hello Bamarider, I had an implant 5 yrs ago, a titan coloplast, it failed me a couple of weeks ago, already went to my urologist and it needs to be replaced, had a mild UTI and have taken all my antibiotics for that, now I am researching what I want to go back with. I am 63 and still very much sexually active with my wife.. there are plenty of options out there and I had mine performed at duke University in Raleigh NC. ,Dr. Lentz, a good surgeon.

Do some research on the malleables tactra 5 yr warranty .. limited on sizing ... Genesis lifetime warranty a guy called thedriver on here just had one installed after 4 failed implants seems happy with it so far .. I have a Rigicon and for the most part quite happy with it after 3 to 4 months you don't even notice you have an implant .. but no moving parts to fail and always ready in a matter of seconds. Plus it bends 135 degrees downwards os it is easy to hide .. tactra in the larger rod dia are almost impossible to bend ..my rods are 13mm dr told me today I could never bend a tactra with rods that size ... plus other implants only bend 90 degrees.
