Re: Pay for inspection pre-implant?

There is no one with more expertise in penile implants than a penile implant surgeon. And you don’t want any additional people inspecting, touching, or even getting close to your implant before it is put in your body. The risk of infection in that instance is many times higher than the chance they w...

Re: Nervous Being up during surgery

Just share your concern with your anesthesia provider. It’s a common fear and they typically give some sedation medication even if you aren’t “asleep”. They can likely make it so even if you are aware of what is happening in the room you don’t care.

Re: Trimix is not unaffected by anxiety and stress.

You are correct that arousal/anxiety are effecting your erections, but it’s not effecting the Trimix. When you are aroused or anxious your penis will respond to stimuli better or worse. That will improve or degrade the quality of your erections. But Trimix is simply a locally acting compound. It doe...

Your situation is good news and bad news. The good news is that it doesn’t matter that you can’t get those tests, the treatment is exactly the same. There are a couple options and you need to figure out which option works best for you. Pills A VED with a constriction ring Injections Implant Those ar...

Re: Retrograde ejaculation

Have a chat with your doc about the RE and need (or not) for birth control. All it takes is one sperm to reach the egg.

Re: Venous Leaks Might Be Nonsense

…I don't use a cock ring, so I've always wondered how it can selectively stop the outflow while allowing the inflow? The arterial system is a high pressure system. The venous system (by comparison) is a low pressure system. There are a number of reasons for this: the heart pumping forward is creati...

Re: Venous Leaks Might Be Nonsense

I realize the original post is quite old now but there are recent replies. The article does not say what the post title claims (“might be nonsense”).

Re: implant medical requirements

Confirm with them which of your tests from home they are willing to accept. Particularly crossing borders they may have different tests (bound vs free vs serum) and different units of measurement (mcg/dl, vs mg/L)

Re: implant medical requirements

EKG, labs, chest x-ray, and depending on your health history echocardiogram are standard. If someone is performing surgery on you WITHOUT requiring these things you should run the other way. You had to wait for these services? Fine. Wait. You seem to be seeking out care for the lowest possible cost ...
