Re: How long for post-surgery implant cycling?
I had to wait 6 weeks before the doctor had my start cycling my implant. It was just as well, there was so much swelling early on that it took 4 weeks before I could find the deflate button on the pump.

Re: partilly inflated after surgery question
It takes considerably longer than 6 weeks to recover your size. Keep in mind, if you had ED for a long time and did not do any penile rehab, then you will loose some length caused by atrophy. If you were doing the penile rehab then you should get it all back. It took me about 18 months to get back t...

Re: 4 WEEKS AND COUNTING
One thing I didn't mention about Dr. Lentz, a lot of the procedures he does is repairing what other doctors did.
Re: Size
It took me about 1-1/2 years to get all of my length back. I have a Titan and I inflate it daily.

Re: 4 WEEKS AND COUNTING
I almost used Dr. McCammon for my implant. His office is literally a 5 minute walk from where I work. I chose not to use him for the following reasons. * I did not get the impression that Urology of Virginia (name of the practice) does that many implants on an annual basis. (this is based upon a com...

Re: Penile Length/Girth Maintenance 1 Year Following Coloplast
My situations was similar to Alibaba's. When I first started using the VED right after my prostatectomy, the most I could get was 6". That was quite a lost in length for me. I then tried pumping up to the most I could get, hold it, let it back off some and then I would be able to pump past that...

Re: Implant Insurance Denial
I believe it is what type of policy you have with an insurance company more so than the actual insurance company. Several years ago I was with BCBS and the plan we had at work wouldn't cover it. I did some checking and they had other plans that would pay for a penile implant. What I found offensive ...

Re: Considering Implant - Venous leak - Other options?
Your situation sounds real similar to mine. I had to wait 5 years to get an implant because of insurance. Starting in 2010 the events are: *2010 diagnosed with Venous Leakage, 3 months later had a Nerve Sparing Radical Prostactectomy *None of the Oral Meds worked at all *Refused to try Muse *Trimix ...

Re: Where do YOU measure from?
I am the person that posted those pictures and neither one of them are me. I found them on the internet as examples of the right way and wrong way to measure yourself.

Re: Where do YOU measure from?
It is my understanding that you measure the penis almost top dead center pressed up against the public bone. You press against the pubic bone because it provides a reliable reference point. Based upon the reading I have done most studies use this method. The first below picture shows what I am talki...
