You have so many issues, both physical and psychological, going on that I hesitate to see you add more trauma. I've posted on other threads here that I did injections for quite a few years. They worked great for some time, but gradually became less effective, as isn't unusual with any medication. Bu...

I'm 67 now, 66 when I got my implant. I've mentioned on other threads here that I wished I had the implant much sooner. I struggled along with oral meds first, they worked for some years but gradually lost efficacy. Then they issued me a pump. That didn't work for me very well at all and they quickl...

I also have continued to have improvement now a little bit more than a year after surgery. I felt disappointed at first, like the OP relates. As others have already said, keep working with it. Seems like I made a big "leap" so to speak after several months of working it. I experience some ...

I would say that I am the same length now, about 1 year post op. I can tell that it will now take a couple or three extra pumps which I can feel in the erection, compared to the first few weeks after surgery. My advice to someone approaching this is, if at all possible and your insurance will cover,...

I had mentioned thinking that I'd lost a bit of length. Last night I actually found a couple of pics taken within the last few years but pre-implant. I didn't lose any at all with the implant! As I've said before, the years of injections built up scar tissue, caused both bending and shortening of li...

I've had this problem to varying degrees for some years, well before I got implanted. I think it is related to several things: my penis seems to need more stimulation the older I get; in intercourse, my wife having had three children and being many years post-menopause, is not tight; she also is som...

When I was still on group insurance from work (before retiring) my copay for Edex was high enough that my urologist hooked me up with Nora Apothecary up in Indy to save some money. They have a website, <noraapothecary.com>. WARNING: they also compound veterinary prescriptions, when you see that on t...

I attribute the increasing difficulty with having orgasms to me getting older. My injections worked great for the first few years but I already started to notice that it was taking longer with more stimulation to achieve orgasm. My wife had three kids so not like a teen any more as far as friction g...

I had a horizontal incision across the "face" of my scrotum, so to speak. The pump is to the left of and above both testicles (from my point of view ha ha). It was explained to me that this is standard procedure at the VA hospital where I go. The pump is oriented more sideways than down or...

Man I'm feeling with you but I don't know what advice to give. When my friends (some of whom are trying to decide whether to get an implant themselves) ask me about pain I tell them that mine was more a pain in the ass during recovery rather than all that painful. We all have different recoveries et...
