27 y/o - Implant in Early May

Postby chuck123 » Mon Apr 09, 2018 9:54 pm

After 10 years of battling ED following a mountain bike wipe out I have opted for an implant. Surgery is set for early May. I am going in for my pre-op tomorrow and not sure what to expect. Really pumped about the operation overall; pills, pump, and injection stopped cutting it years ago. I also had a revascularization procedure in 2014 with poor results. Crossing my fingers that the implant will be a good solution! I will keep you guys posted as things progress.
27 y/o. ED for 10 years following biking trauma. Penile revascularization 2in 014 without benefit. Implant scheduled in May 2018.

Chuck,
Best wishes to you. I am sorry you have to do this at such a young age, but I am sure you are doing the right thing and I pray you will be as happy with your implant as I am with mine.

I know you will never regret the implant. I have had two and if I had to have a third I would do it in a second. Mine have been great. Both have been exactly what a person wishes for after ED.
Good luck! and keep us posted on the post surgery.

Good luck. I feel the struggle of dealing with it at a young age too. But it will be for the best long term

Man I hope so. I'm so scared but think that the implant is the only way to gain back function and save me in my youth
26 years old. USA. ED problem since teenage years. Doctor prescribed ED meds showing some efficacy but not a guarantee. As much as I’d like the implant I now think I should hold off if I’m seeing some results from pills

I have been dealing with ED for 20+ years... it sucks and I feel I missed out on life during those years and has shaped my future. If I had known about this back then I would do it without question knowing what I know now.

Good luck!
New Hampshire, 42, Diagnosed with ED early 20’s. VL Left side, Implanted 7-9-18, Dr. Gross, Titan OTR, 22cm +1 RTE, Penoscrotal.

I am sorry that life has dealt you such a shitty hand. I am glad you're not quitting the game but rather just going for a breath of fresh air.

Deal those damn cards again... I'm not finished yet. Best of luck with your surgery :)
