Re: Cycling
Has anyone ever not been or had trouble deflating their implant. What did you do? If the implant is partially inflated is there any harm in this? My doctor said if I can’t deflate the implant I’ll have to come to the office so they can. Or an emergency room. I’m wondering if a partial inflation mig...

Re: Question about rear tip extenders
I have a question about the use of rear tip extenders(RTEs). I understand that they are used in order to adjust the size of the implants in 0.5 cm increments and that of course that they are not inflatable like the actual implant. But what are the positives and negatives of the RTEs? Should the sur...

Re: AMS, Can I get back length?
First of all you need to understand size loss. Some can be regained, and some cannot. Then the size loss before surgery and the size loss during and after surgery. Lots of good publications on this in the General Discussion section of this board in the Documents worth reading thread pinned to the to...

Re: Consult - August 2nd - What to ask?
As previously noted on this forum, I have complete ED as of late 2019 due to uncontrolled diabetes. I got the diabetes under control but did nothing for the ED because my wife was diagnosed with cancer around the same time (ultimately passing away from CV-19 in 8/21 as she was immunocompromised) an...

Re: Type 1 Diabetics with Implant
I have read some information I think you might find useful. A well-known NYC implant doctor published this on his web site: Diabetics are prone to infection and/or long healing process. Is this condition troubling in the prosthesis procedure? In our hands diabetic men have fewer infections than non-...

Re: Distal Crossover
The only thing I can add to this is about the cylinder tip location in the glans. I had trouble with activation where only my left cylinder would inflate. The right would so slowly inflate that I would have to wait for almost an hour for it to move up close to my glans. This caused my left tip to mo...

Re: 3 inches full penetration
For me I have a very difficult time understanding how doctors can vary so much in this. I just don't understand how these lower end doctors are even let near any mans dick. There is tons of research and papers on how to do this correctly and prevent loss of size. Many of those papers are in the gene...

Re: Idiots that don’t have a implant
This is a difficult decision to make. Fear of the unknown is a powerful thing to overcome for some of us. So men will sometimes just keep asking all kinds of things while they are deciding about this. Maybe some of us were a little like that before we made our own decision. Best thing I have found t...
