Re: Getting An Implant Although Wife Has Low Sex Drive?
Addyi is contraindicated for postmenopausal women, and a prudent person might be skeptical about a drug that acts on the brain but whose mechanism of operation is "poorly understood." As a retired nurse, my wife (who is postmenopausal) is skeptical of all medication, and this one she would...

Re: Getting An Implant Although Wife Has Low Sex Drive?
My internist, who's also an old friend, suggested I get an implant, but he cautioned me at the the time that couples who have been asexual for years very often never succeed in getting it on again. As I mentioned elsewhere in this thread, my wife had lost interest in sex and was not interested in t...

Re: Getting An Implant Although Wife Has Low Sex Drive?
... I never would have guessed there would be practically no payoff from the surgery but that's my situation. ...I didn't expect however, my wife really had lost interest after being dormant for four or more years. She could have told me in advance but I guess thought I wouldn't have believed her -...

Re: Getting An Implant Although Wife Has Low Sex Drive?
Unfortunately getting an implant does not make a bad relationship better. Many of our partners and us, have given up on the intimate side of the relationship. Once intercourse was problematic because their partners have had ED for a long period of time. If one does not find ways to keep the fire in...

Re: Getting An Implant Although Wife Has Low Sex Drive?
During my long struggle with ED my wife was very supportive, but nonetheless her interest waned and finally disappeared. When we discussed the implant she said the decision was entirely mine, and not to think "for one second" that I was doing it in any way for her -she'd had enough. I got ...

Re: Coloplast vs AMS
It's hard to compare AMS and Coloplast from the patient's perspective, because very few implantees have experienced both of them. In general, it seems to be true that Coloplast can be more rigid, and AMS can have a more natural flaccid state, but everybody's anatomy is different and everybody experi...

Re: How many times do you cycle your implant a day or week?
I've had my Titan since 2008 but have never used it due to a stroke. Dr. Kramer advised me to cycle it "every now and then" to keep the tissue stretched and healthy. I inflate it for a few minutes every 4-6 weeks - I see no sign of any problems with it.
