Re: Glans engorgment
I agree with headout2000, somebody is telling you some tall tales. There are 3 erectile chambers in the penis. 2 of them are called the "Corpora Cavernosa". They are the chambers that are on the left and right sides of you penis and they are what allow you to have an erection. When you get...

Re: Getting nervous
I am one of the guys that my scrotum did end up the size of a grapefruit. That goes away in a week or 2, although you will have some swelling for a while. It is about 18 months since my surgery and it has been 1000% worth it, I would do it again without a seconds hesitation.

Re: Coloplast Titan Touch
Topdog It is way too early to worry about not being able to feel the deflate button. Right after my surgery I was always feeling around the pump and the area where I thought the deflate button was supposed to be. I would be looking at a picture of the implant while I was doing it. It was at least 6 ...

Re: surgeon reviews
Dr Aaron Lentz at Duke Raleigh did my implant. He isn't as well known. However, he does more than 100 of them per year, which was high enough volume for me. The surgery went well. I did have a lot of bruising and swelling. Most of that was gone after 2 weeks. He did tell me one interesting thing tha...

Re: NON Peyronie's Curve
I had a very subtle curve to mine. The Titan I was implanted with took care of the curve. Now I am a straight arrow looking for targets (that means harassing my wife).

Re: Length - Coloplast vs AMS LGX
lostsheep My experience and knowledge is the following: - The LGX in AMS LGX stands for Length, Girth Expansion (LGX). The exact expansion figure I have heard the most is 18%. - The TITAN expands in girth only. I have a Titan. When I first got my implant I had about 1-1/2 inches missing.Over time I ...

Re: What about the glans?
My glands to engorge some of the time without any of the pills. I had some left over Viagra and I gave it a try about months after the implant and they did engorge. As you probably know, erections are facilitated by blood engorging the "coprora cavernosa", of which there are 2 of them. Thi...

Re: Must Read - Benefits or pre-implant Vacuum Pump Dilation
It is probably a good idea to be using the VED almost everyday until you get your implant. The primary reason is to maintain blood flow to the penis which prevents atrophy from occurring. Any length that is lost do to atrophy can never be recovered. I had to wait 5 years to get my implant. I was fin...

Re: Doctor inattention
You are absolutely right about your concerns with the support staff. The best doctor is not very effective if his staff is substandard. My wife and I have left more than one doctor (this includes the doctor I originally did a consult with for an implant) because of issues with the staff.

Re: 1 wk post-op. is this normal?
I had a lot of bruising after my surgery, not quite as much as you have. However, my scrotum literally swelled up to the size of a grapefruit. The doctor took the drain out of me about 24 hours after surgery.He did close the opening with a single stitch, not a band-aid. The pain, swelling and bruisi...
