I’m 49 and I am considering having 3 piece implant procedure from a high volume surgeon. I have taken sildenafil with varying degrees of success over the past several years. My sex life with my wife is nonexistent… I can jack it to porn fairly normally but if I stop I lose my erection quickly. Sex is full of stress for me and I am not sure how much of this is in my head. Kaiser will not order me the penile ultrasound to verify veinous leakage as they tell me the options are shots or prosthesis.

If I wasn’t married I don’t know that I would go through with this at 49…. My wife is 8 years younger than me…

Anyway… if any of you have been in a similar place and gone through with the implant I would love to hear your experience and if you think this would be a positive next step for me or if I am missing something…

Thankful for this community chat!

No, I have not had an implant and yes, you are missing something if you have not tried a tension band to keep your erection from going soft.
