Re: Superficial Infection

I had similar. Seemed chronic for a while. Did resolve with antibiotics and daily gentle cleaning/blow drying.

Re: Orgasm control question

I had enough anxiety about my dwindling ability to get an erection, and with her aggressive foreplay to try to get me hard, I usually came far faster than optimal in the rare instances we achieved some penetration. Basially sex sucked and was something to be sadly avoided. Sex is great post implant ...

Re: New patient processes among doctors?

At the end of my first consult I was sold and told them I was ready to go for it. They wrote me an order for labwork to be drawn at home, did an EKG in the exam room which was read out by a cardiologist as part of preop clearance, and sent me home with preop scrub to be used for a few days prior plu...

Re: Questions about the first month post-op

I’m planning on getting my implant pretty shortly and trying to understand what my limitations are the first month post-op. 1) Do I need to take time off from work? I work from home, so I won’t be around people post-op fortunately 2) I’m a drummer in a band. I know that going to the gym is off limi...

Re: Reservoir pain post surgery

I had stabbing pain in the reservior area. It was at its worst immediately postop and slowly got better. After a few months I didn't have any pain in the area at all. I think this is unique to folks with the intraabdominal reservor placement.

Re: Orgasm control question

I think there's supposed to be some documented relationship between PE and ED. Whether it's anxiety about losing it or something more physical I don't know. I still find it hard to hold back in my wife's favorite position which involves her using a vibrator during spoon sex. Too stimulating. Prior t...

Re: How much do you think about your implant daily?

I thought it would be very strange/unnatural forever. For sure it was for a couple months while healing.

It's been 5 months now and I don't think about it much at all. I have to remember to find time for cycling.

Overall Saddisfaction rate %? Post surgery recovery challenges if any? The first time you had sex with the implant how was it? Any regret: would you have done anything different like choosing a different Dr. Or model? Do you rate you erection stronger than you ever had in your life time? After orga...

Re: Ultrasound after implant

In all honesty I don't know if you'll find many folks who did in fact have an ultrasound done post implant. It seems a somewhat unique circumstance.

Conceptually I don't see what could be problematic but I'd address it with Clavell.

Hope it all turns out okay.

Re: Which implant to choose? AMS or Coloplast

Clavell has a 15 minute "How to Choose" video on Youtube that may be helpful.

I did the Titan but wasn't given a real choice. The urologist said the TItan was best given my penis dimensions. Whatever those are. I don't measure.
