I will speculate (from what I know of plumbing in buildings and other mechanical stuff) that the failure modes which relate to ffrequency of use would be related to the pump or valve(s). Then the inflatable portion. Leakage from kinking or pinching of the flexible parts and simple mechanical wear co...

It's frustrating if one ejaculates just after entering the vagina. But what is intercourse for? Right, sexual reproduction. The sooner the sperm enters the vagina the better. I'm a natural scientist … 8-) I wonder.... When the woman has an orgasm, her muscle contractions actually pump the cervix in...

I intended to post a topic titled "Life expectancy of implants:", but you beat me to the subject. I have read there is a relation between the number of inflation/deflation cycles (essentially the number of times one has sex) and implant life (more frequent use-earlier failure) Is there any...

A pumpless inflatable I have been looking at drawings and pictures of the inflatable prostheses and wonder if the pump could be built into an articulated RTE (rear tip extender) so that the action of foreplay and coitus would operate the pump to inflate the prosthesis. In this way, the erection woul...

Sensations inside scrotum During arousal, even before getting an erection, I find a pleasant tightness in my testicles. This may disappear as my ED gets worse, I cannot tell for sure. If anyone has observed this, can you tell me about your experience? Is it in any way restored with an implant? I kin...

Hi Lost Sheep, OK details a bit vague, but ED not being able to get an erection good enough for sex, so is the you? So it could be a venous leak or it could be just psychological, have you ever masturbated to porn? great way to lose your erections paired up with over masturbation, which means in do...

Tomas1, dg_moore, David_R, Thanks for the inputs. I have tried all three formulations of pills, and read about the alpostradil suppository and injections, vacuum assistance and figured they had too low a satisfaction rate to be something I would be satisfied with. I had hopes the VA would let me ski...

From what I have read, the nerves and sensations give orgasm. Blood flow into the Corpus Cavernosa provides the erection. They work together, but they CAN work independently. Meaning you can have an erection even if you are completely numb and you can have orgasm if you are completely flaccid. Probl...

The problem I have seems to be not so much one of inflation, but of deflation. Stimulus (sometimes enhanced with medication) produces an erection very close to the size of my youth, albeit not so robust nor as vertical (when I am standing) as then. Withdrawal of stimulation results in nearly immedia...

I am a single heterosexual man in late 60s with increasing erectile dysfunction (which may have been coming on for the past 40 years) is causing me to consider a penile implant after the three oral medications have proven less than satisfactoy. Type II Diabetic and BMI 29 at present. I am here to ga...
