Re: Trading length for girth?
When I had a revision which replaced a 24 cm (with .5 cm RTE) AMS CRX with a 26 cm Titan, my length went from 8” to 6.5 “. At the same time, my girth went from 5” to 6”. This has me thinking that perhaps when the internal tissues are stretched in the axial dimension, the ability to stretch in the l...

Aetna Advantage picked upwhat ever Medicare didn't cover on mine. Admittedly it might of been a very low amount, maybe even zero. I never heard a word either way.

Re: Sex six weeks after penoscrotal surgery?
As I remember it. My first sex was at around 6 1/2 weeks with my wife. While it was uneventful, no pain that I remember of. I don't think I finished. But the act didn't last very long either. I didn't want to press my luck. Wife did orgasm. So I called it a success. First true intercourse in a few y...

Re: Dr. Serefoglu
There was a study floating around where the average implant length used was slightly shorter when the infrapubic method was used. Strangely, all the drs claimed to of measured accurately. As for pain & recovery. The average difference isn't very much. Also, some drs are not very good at preventi...

Re: AMS 700 CX or LGX?
RTE’s are rear tip extenders. Nothing to do with differences between CX and LGX Rte's create the "half" sizes between the sizes that the companies make. They are in .5cm increments to bring the next smaller implant up in length. Like AMS comes in 18cm & 21cm. If you measure 20cm then ...

Re: So you thought it was you !
A word to all of you considering an implant. Make absolutely certain that your wife or your significant other agrees 100% with your desire to get an implant. In my case the subject was discussed and begrudgeingly agreed upon. After being implanted and healing to a point where the equipment was func...

Re: Cycling right away VS Waiting
I personally think the wild card in the activation timelines is the stitches. Not all drs use the same method to close the incision so their advice can vary. Default answer is to ask your dr when you can start gently cycling. He should know whats best because he knows what he used on you. Afterall, ...

Re: self pay IPP tax deductible?
My understanding mirrors the other posters. In my state. They were a year or two behind implementing the Federal deductable increase. So the following year I made out real well with some deductions that fell in the $10k exclusions but I got full benefit on my state return. This wasn't medical relate...

Re: Old malleable……
a keto or carnivore diet to control the diabetes . Then get a different implant . I doubt that logic works with his type 1. Maybe it would show result with type 2 but it will likely not solve his diabetes for long. Diabetes is like ED, its progressive. Once you start it just keeps getting worse. Yo...
