Have you gained size after cycling stopped hurting ?

Thanks, Headair. Shorter ChatGPT is exactly what I said: neither the Titan nor the CX expand in length.

Length gains come from the tunica accommodating the implant, not from a length expansion of the implant.

I really don’t understand why this Edjohn guy is trying to pick a fight with me on multiple threads, and with demonstrably wrong information.

Don't know, my friend.

Sometimes, people can be a bit too dogmatic. I almost got into a fight with someone on this board. But, I stopped myself with the realization that neither of us is going to look good in front of the rest of the community.

So, patience.

Leto, thank you for the feedback, and especially your own experience. That would indicate that the change in pain may be more about healing rather than pressing the tunica to expand. Maybe the tunica is more pliable, and/or lacks nerves to register pain when the implant presses on the tissue to expand ?
From your last comment, I guess it would be fair to say that for CX's --
- gains in length come from the body, all tissue, expanding to accommodate the constant max length of the cylinders ?
- gains in girth come from the tunica (and surrounding tissue) expanding to accommodate the cylinders gradually expanding to their max possible girth ?

Chuck, I’m not a believer that gains are pain-dependent. I didn’t have much pain after first few months, but had most of my gains later.

As for the dependent/independent distinction, keep in mind that is only for girth. Both the titan and the CX are “dependent” when it comes to length. Neither expands lengthwise.

Headair123, thanks for passing that along. That's consistent with what I've read also.

Regarding the Titan lengthening, I did a quick ChatGPT search and this is what came back:

What “the medical establishment” says (Titan-only):
• Coloplast’s own Titan materials talk about strength and girth expansion, not length expansion. They explicitly market maximum girth expansion (up to 21 mm per cylinder) and the ability of the Bioflex cylinders to withstand high pressures (for things like manual modeling), but they don’t claim the device is designed to elongate under pressure. 
• Bench / ex-vivo commentary cited in the literature suggests “essentially no measurable cylinder lengthening” at max inflation. One review notes that at maximum inflation an 18 cm Titan remained 18 cm, i.e., no meaningful axial elongation of the cylinder itself even when filled to the top. 

Titan isn’t “length-expanding” in the mechanical sense (the cylinder doesn’t meaningfully elongate under high pressure), but max inflation over time can still translate into small real-world length gains because the body adapts (and because “length” is partly geometry and measurement technique, not just cylinder dimensions).

Leto & Headair123, I've recently had the same experience with another forum member who, when confronted with facts, responded by calling me "an old man with no girl".

LOL -- very stupid -- after all, I literally have the receipts

I have a conspiracy theory. I believe these accounts are reincarnations of the person, or persons, who used to operate the TooYoung account. I just don't think they want to go quietly into that good night.
