It can help get everything in the best shape to have the largest implant installed that will fit your anatomy.
What's a good daily VED routine for those 1-2 months pre surgery?
How many repetitions for how long?
How many days a week?
There are a lot of different views on this. You should ask if your surgeon has any recommendation and go with that.
Whatever your doctor tells you trumps anything I say, or anyone else.
I can only tell what I did, and if you search the forums you'll find a lot of variation on that.
So, I was already using a VED for both sex and post prostatectomy penile rehab before I booked my implant surgery.
I had gotten to the point that nothing else worked, and even the VED was only a very marginal, partial solution for PIV sex.
Once my surgery was scheduled I started pumping with the VED a minimum of twice a day. I did that for about 5 weeks.
I would usually aim for 20 minute sessions, but sometimes up to 30 minutes. I would pump to hopefully a safe level, but aiming to maximize stretch.
My technique was to pump slowly, to avoid having my balls sucked into the tube, and to minimise any bruising or other temporary damage from overdoing it. Once fully pumped I would just leave it there for the duration of the session, then deflate. I didn't use the repetitions approach.
On as many days as I could I did three sessions, especially during the last couple of weeks before surgery.
I stopped 24 hours before the procedure, and made sure the last few sessions were less aggressive to avoid any injury that might jeopardize things.
