Has anyone had an increase in girth above their pre-ED / implant surgery? If so, what did you do to make it happen, if anything? And about how much increase did you get?

Right after my surgery, while I was in the recovery room, the doctor came in to talk to me. He said I would have a slight bulge from the reservoir. I never did though, and still can’t see it after 6 weeks.

I have the Coloplast Genesis pump and it’s not easy to see it deflating unless it’s pumped up to the max. I definitely have to hold the deflate bar and squeeze the shaft.

Make sure you’re using ice and also heat! The first three days I used ice every 15 minutes. Then I started using a heating pad as needed, which was often. I continued using ice on and off for about two weeks. Baths after 12 days (but only if your doc says that’s okay).

When I went in for my pre op consultation, the doctor told me I needed to “wrap my mind around the fact that I would lose some size”. He pulled on it and said “this is about what it will be “. I then grabbed it and pulled it at least another inch! I told him I wasn’t worried about losing a quarter o...

I have the same pump, it will be 6 weeks old tomorrow. I don’t always hear a noise when pumping, and when the pump is warmer it seems to pump more. It seems okay to me.

I’ve been cycling for 11 days. The pain improves. I start slowly so the tissue has a chance to expand and catch up. Then I do the “exercise” and bend it. Pump up more, continue this until it’s maxed out. Hold until it hurts too much, release some, relax, do it again! It seems to be working.

Is there a difference between "Touch" and "One Touch"? My model/practice says Titan Touch. Started cycling today and before I went full bore I tried deflating with no luck. Been trying for a couple hours. Is the first deflate harder than normal for some reason? Your signature bl...

I’ve been a pretty active member of the local bike club and triathlon club for the past five years. I have a lot of money invested in bike shorts, more than this implant cost (which has been zero so far). Anyway, I’m almost afraid to try on my bike shorts at this point because I’m afraid my public r...

As a newb who's never put in pump in yet, I've tried a couple times and have no idea how I'm going to be able to pump and deflate. Cannot feel how to deflate and that pump is hard as hell and feels like I'll burst a vein before I get a pump in! Ouch. Definitely not nearly as easy as I expected. The...
