Hi all
I’m looking for some advice
I’m now 7 weeks post implant I have the titan touch fitted revised from the malleable implant .
I started out only three pumps in before it gos like a marble ove time I’m now getting 9 pumps but I’m wondering how you know if your maxed out ..does the pump not return back to full size . I’m hoping I’m not at the moment as I’d like to continue to stretch my penis as I’m not near my pre implant size and my surgeon was confident he could get back my lost lenth due to being revised from the malleable
Any help would be much appreciated
Am I maxed out ?
Re: Am I maxed out ?
Dwoody1977, when you say max'd out are you referring to maximum number of pumps, or out of fluid ? When I cycle its until the pump bulb is hard and I feel uncomfortable pressure. Every 5 min I get in another mini-pump or two. And I do that until the uncomfortable pressure is as much as I care to sit there with. Over time the total number of pumps has incrementally increased -- which I believe (hope) means things are stretching very very slowly. If you're referring to using up all the fluid, I've read that the bulb stays flattened instead of refilling with fluid. However, I don't have first hand experience with that.
Hope that addresses your question.

Re: Am I maxed out ?
Chuck is correct, once you run out of fluid in your reservoir the bulb will remain flat. If the pump is hard you still got fluid but your cylinders at this point are at their max, keep cycling to stretch, get pump #10, 11 and 12 in.

Re: Am I maxed out ?
I agree with the other guys. At 11 weeks my pump also still becomes hard at full inflation. Like Chuck, the number of pumps has kept increasing over time. I keep pumping as far as I can tolerate during cycling sessions, and after resting it a minute or two I can get more pumps in. I don't believe I've maxed it out yet as it hasn't gone flat. I'm pretty aggressive with cycling and aim for three sessions a day as often as I can. I usually have one long session of up to an hour and two shorter ones of about 10-15 minutes each.

Re: Am I maxed out ?
Very early on my pump would go flat after so many pumps…then I had a revision and the doc added more juice to the reservoir. He told me that I wouldn’t be able to max out in the future. After about 4-5 weeks with the new pump, I maxed out again

Re: Am I maxed out ?
Thanks all I was referring to when I run out of fluid I should have explained.better .. because of revision from malleable I haven’t had any great pain when cycling I healed very quickly with hardly any pain right from the first few days .. even now I pump until I can’t push pump down any more but I have very little pain .. so I’m assuming I still have some fluid in the resivoir as the pump isn’t going flat . Thanks everyone that’s answered my question

Hi Chuck, im finding myself doing the same as you in terms of cycling. Seems to be working! I’m curious, as a rough percentage, how much has cycling increased your size?

Hi Ephi82, in length from 6.5" to 6.75" but that was pretty early on. And honestly some of that may have been from reduced swelling. In girth, maybe a little at the base, but the rest of the shaft looks like its filling out. How about you ?

Re: Am I maxed out ?
I was at 10 to 20 pumps early on. Now at 6 years old,I pump 25 and it is very usable by 37 pumps it will be glass hard and painful if I leave it that hard for 20minutes.

I don’t have a soft measuring tape, but I’d say my penis is about 20% bigger now than when I started cycling two weeks ago, and I believe I can get back to my pre ED length ( 6”), and maybe a bit more in girth. Honestly, after 10 years of chasing erections it is such an amazing feeling to be rock hard again when I want to be.
