Re: How common is implant failure <10 years?
implants fail at a rate of roughly 2% per year. so at 10 years, on average, 80 men out of 100 will have a working implant (ie, implant failure happens one in five men at the ten year point) see the attached graph from a scientific paper the trouble is that it is difficult to figure out which data po...

Re: Pump Placement - In Front or Behind?
mine is behind and in a place that it would be hard for a woman to find -- unless they are really feeling my scrotum up. Different surgeons place the pump in different places. I think if you have really good hands and are younger, they go for hiding it behind the testicles. If you are older and have...

Re: At a Pivotal Crossroads - Some Merrix-Style No-BS Advice Desperately Sought
from your posts it does look like there may be some psychological issues . My opinion is that if you can get a good erection from injection, then you should stay with injection until that mode quits working. For me, in the earlier days, I routinely got four hour erection from injection. Those were r...

Re: Getting an implant to save a relationship?
great question ! A few things come to mind: A surgeon on a video interview stated: "a man gets the implant for himself, NOT to please someone else or save a relationship" It sounds like from that doc's experience, implants really do not turn around the other multitude of issues inherent to...

Re: "Nothing beats a blood filled dick"
same for me...when i use it i have a blood filled dick that is a semichub erection just like the days when i would partially respond to trimix (injected back then--but now gel into urethra). The natural erection is barely good enough for sex, but it does feel really nice and the glans is plump and w...

Re: How many revisions should a 35 year old expect?
based on long term studies, the mechanical failure rate is something like 2 or 3 percent per year. in one paper they state: "the overall 5 year mechanical survival rate for AMS 700CX is 91% and for Titan it is 87%" in another paper they conclude: "16 years after surgery 68% of AMS wer...

Re: “It doesn’t feel like a real erection”
.she has tried to steer me away from seeking out an implant quoting that they don’t feel like the real thing. Agree that this is like telling a person who needs a knee joint replacement that it is not like a real knee joint. That is true if you compare the knee replacement to a healthy good knee. B...

Re: 8 week post-op grower to show-er
i know you are 8 weeks out, so this is a little tricky.
For me, underwear is just not an issue. I do well with briefs, any size, but also do well with boxers.

Re: Remote control Implant
yep....I think the MRI tech just figured most implants (eg, spinal stimulators) have remotes, so, her comment does not mean that there is a penile implant model out there with remote If I were talking to the manufacturers, I would ask them to ocus efforts on figuring out a way to get the implants to...
