Implant 5 months ago. But stalled progress in regaining length for over 2 months now.

Hi all.

I had my titan implant done in early June this year. The surgeon I believe did a good job. Didnt undersize or oversize me. No infections etc.

The first time I cycled, about 4 weeks or so after the surgery, it was pretty painful but I got through it.

I started cycling daily by late July, even though there was still some swollenness in the scrotrum and also in the scar area about the penis.

My surgeon told me to rub the scar area and the surrounding areas each day, along with cycling, doing the Perito exercies and even doing some vacuum device work (I have the bathmate vacuum device, which is very strong).

Long story short, my pre-op length when erect was about 6 inches. It was only about 4 inches post-op the first time I cycled.

I'm still stuck at just alittle over 5 inches when fully inflated now. At best 5.25 inches on a good day. And it's been this way for the past 2+ months.

Is this normal? I was hoping to be back to my normal length after 5 months post-op but what do I know.

Note - I havent had sex since the operation. Just a couple of BJs from my female friend. I know sex is apparently one of the best ways to stretch out the implant but aside from that, what else can I do?

Should I use the vacuum device and hold it for 10 minutes? I currently do about 5 minutes daily of the vacuum device, and I also cycle once in the morning and evening.

What size is your implant, including RTE’s? That is the best indicator of whether you still have room to grow or are likely maxing out, lengthwise. Most guys have a bone-pressed measurement between 2/3 and 3/4 of their total implant length.

I don't use a vacuum device any longer but I do pump that puppy up full blast and let it go for an hour daily. Sometimes only 45 - 50 minutes because at the 40 minute mark it starts getting uncomfortable in the shaft and especially the glans area. I'm back to my pre-op length of 5 inches but in the vacuum I was 5 1/2 or so. Hoping to get a little more gains over the next 6 months - year. You can try it for longer without the vacuum but before surgery the vacuum definitely stretched it longer than normal. I'm not sure if the same applies after surgery using the vacuum.

I agree with LetoMan, we need to have some more information about what size implant you got with rear tip extenders.

I remember at 6 weeks when I started cycling, I could barely get in 10 pumps and I was around 5 inches.

Things started turning for the better at 6 months for me and I was back to my original pre surgery length of 6.25 inches. You’re right at 6 months right now.

My docs protocol was twice a day cycling for 20 minutes each session at the max that I could pump it up to.
I didn’t do a VED, but I would do extra stretching by getting in a hot tub of water, pumping up to 70%, bending up and down, side to side for 5 minutes, then I would pump up to the max and see how long I could go without crying uncle from the discomfort.
I did the extra stretching 3 to 4 times a week while my wife did her morning walks. We’re empty nesters, so I didn’t have to worry about kids.

Hang in there,

I’m eight months post surgery and I am still gaining small increments of both size and more importantly my ability to point my penis with my pelvis. The part of the implant buried deep in your pelvis needs to reach its full potential too so that your penis sticks out straight, and can be positioned by your pelvis alone. Look no hands!

I started cycling at about 4 weeks everyday, and still will pump it up most evenings after a shower, some days for sex with my girlfriend, sometimes to masturbate, but always to keep making progress. I am now a little longer and a little girthier than my best natural erection.

When I was at month 5 I was a bit disappointed that my size seemed to be coming up at less than desired.

This is when I learned that one should pump to what you think is maximum, and then play with it, have sex with it, and after 10-15 minutes, try to pump it up more. I think you will find that you can easily add 3-5 more complete pumps, and that will make your penis even stiffer and may add a little more size.

When I am with my girl, I’ll pump it up really good and we will have foreplay. After we are done having that fun, I add more pumps, maximizing the erection, and then have intercourse.

It’s amazing, I am better at intercourse now than any other time in my life because my dick is really hard and erect, I can move it a position it in her to reach her best spots inside, and I can make her come several times without losing my erection. Keep cycling, and try what I have done. Pump to max, use it a bit, and then give it additional pumps. It might hurt a little initially, but overtime, it won’t!
