Re: Lack of Direction from Surgeon's Office
Every surgery I have had requires Hibiclens showering at least night before and morning of surgery. Also, all clean undergarments and PJs ( if u wear). I have had two implant surgeries and most recent started Hibiclens 3 days prior. Also wanted clean bed sheets night before too. I totally complied t...

Re: Some simple questions for men who have an implant
I dealt with much of what you have for years with medication to try and help. Following prostate cancer in 2013 injections were tried but total ED set in with Peyronies. My wife was patient and understanding, but we knew something more had to be done. After referral with a great surgeon in Kansas Ci...

Re: Unable to Orgasm Masturbating w’ New Implant
Orgasms took longer after implant. I mentioned to Dr and he said this occurs in some cases but improves since nerves would be cut or damaged during surgery. Swelling at the minute level still affects nerves as well. Dr. Was right. After several weeks sensations improved and organisms more normal.

Re: Incontinence before/after implant
I developed incontinence following Surgery for PC in 2013. Had ED prior to PC. Surgeon I was sent to regarding Incontinence and ED was confident he could resolve both. I had two surgeries at same time - one to put in an IPP (implant) and one to place a pelvic sling to control incontinence. Day after...

Re: Fight insurance or pay for it?
I know this is frustrating. Before my implant I did not think insurance was going to cover since they did not cover ANY genital surgeries. Had Peyronies diagnosis. A few years later, following prostate cancer and continued severe ED and Peyronies, with post Prostatectomy incontintence the request wa...

Re: Peyronies disease and just wondering
I had peyronies and ED for years and then prostate cancer and prostatectomy. Tried Xiaflex with 4 cycles over 6 months and was useless. Few months later got penile implant and wish I had done it long ago. Surgeon manipulated penile tissue when doing implant to correct peyronie curve. Other than a bu...

Re: Titan show and tell
I had Peyronies 45 degree left bend for years and did Xiaflex regimen in 2016 with no change. Implanted in December and surgeon corrected Peyronies curvature with an incision and graft procedure at time of implant surgery. Wish I had saved the money and time and had implant earlier.
