Re: My 12 days of Christmas have started
I’m a Texas Aggie class of ‘78 and have spent my adult life in the oilfield or Army. I’m fond of saying there are no stupid questions, just stupid people. So forgive me in advance if what I’m about to say is really, really stupid. I think what I’m feeling is performance anxiety. I’ve had ED so damne...

My 12 days of Christmas have started
It’s a bit past 6 am, Dec 19th. I have a report time to go get my LGX implanted of 6 AM on the 31st. I’ve dealt with life, death, premature babies, multiple combat tours. Why is a simple medical procedure affecting me so? My wife and I discussed doing this. The ED had made sex pretty much a train wr...

Re: PLeasssseeee HELP ....
I suppose anything is possible. I could win Powerball. (It would help the odds if I bought a ticket). You might get hit by a meteor. Trump might beat Hillary. Wait, delete that last one. Seriously, though, according to the urologists that had me on injections since 1990. The culprit is the papaverin...

Re: Anyone Experience Hairloss from TRT?
I’m guessing by cream you’re talking androgel or similar. I self inject. Hitting myself in the thigh hurts but it’s convenient. A shot in the butt hurts less, less likely to put it in a vein by accident, but requires agility. I noticed an acceleration of hair loss on my head about 6 months. I notice...

Re: Anyone Experience Hairloss from TRT?
The TRT accelerated the loss of my head hair. No question. It was like stepping on the gas pedal in my wife’s Mustang convertible. DHT is one of the chemicals testosterone evolves into, once in your bloodstream, and it’s the leading culprit in male pattern baldness. The TRT gave me a hell of a lot m...

Re: Length Discussion Ends
If you’ve noticed me posting a bit more it’s because as surgery approaches I’m getting antsy. We are 13 days out as of now. Yes, loss of size is a concern to me. I’m not a pornstar. I was always a grower and thought I was undersized only to find out I was well above average and had what one might ca...

Re: Anyone Experience Hairloss from TRT?
Oh hell yeah. Receding hairline to the nth power. But hey. I was 59 when I started on it. 63 now. Wife loves shaved head and beard or goatee. I can also do the Army Ranger buzzcut look, albeit the top is pretty thin. Well worth the trade off to feel like a 21 year old badass trapped in a 63 year old...

Re: what are the first signs/symptoms of venous leak?
I wonder if "venous leak" may be a misnomer for some men (me in particular). I have begun to suspect that leakage, not out the veins, but actually out the sides of the tunica albuginea could produce the same effect as true venous leakage. I did not see any pooling of escaping blood, so I ...

Re: Are medical papers currently reporting lower infection rate than actual rate?
I guess we will never know for sure.....you know there’s three kinds of lies: 1.lies 2. Damned lies 3. Statistics But in sit down discussions, I had one doctor who implants 2-4 per month tell me his infection rate was just under 2% (that would be about one annually) The other implants probably 15-20...

Re: Wrong Urologist?
One of my favorite lines from any work of literature comes from Harper Lee's To Kill A Mockingbird. On the witness stand, Tom is asked if he’s accusing Miss Mayella(the white girl) of lying. As it would be heretical for a black to accuse a white of lying at that time, Tom tells the court she ain’t l...
