After full cycling some reduce of hardness.

Postby richard_goes_bionic » Tue May 26, 2026 5:42 pm

I experience something I am not sure how to deal with. After I pump it up for full it seems to loose some of the rigidity and first after a new round with pumps it keeps the pressure steady. Any one to have been there as well, is there a leak witch closes first after a new round with pumps. Just these pumps are extreme hard to push and very little liquid gets moved.

I have not had that particular problem. I find that I can’t pump to full size no matter how many times I pump. So I have to stop at about 20 pumps, wait a minute then pump again and do this 2 or 3 times.
Try different methods of pumping. You should find a way that works for you.

Your grammar is very confusing to me… can you reread it and see if you meant to word it differently? If you had a leak you would soon lose all your fluid and it wouldn’t work at all… maybe you mean something different?

Hi Richard, this is normal with the X and AX models: after pumping, they continue to expand further, so you have to pump a little more later on—or move your penis back and forth—and then perform a few more small pumps. Sometimes, when changing positions, I give it 10 extra small pumps. However, this issue goes away over time; eventually, your penis—along with the implant—will have stretched sufficiently, and it won't require any additional pumping anymore.

Same experience, been doing peritos. Eventually youll get to a point its super hard and maxed out but it takes some time. Once maxed out, i really cant add more even with peritos. But even peritos is hard to do as its so stiff and rigid theres hardly any movement left. My gauge is how much more mobile i am doing peritos.. if its super hard, i know im near max or max. If not, im sure i can squeeze more pumps in. Sometimes it does need that break in time to equalize

I have some of this with my Titan. I get it to the hardness I want, and after ten minutes or so it might lose 10-15% of the hardness. The tissues are stretching and the cylinders no longer fill the space quite as tightly. I give it a couple more pumps and it’s good.

At some point the tissues stop stretching and the erection will maintain 100% of the desired hardness for as long as desired, hours if wanted. This usually takes 15-20min for everything to fully stretch out.

I think this is more a normal feature of human tissues than an implant issue. It’s possible your pump valve is not fully seating and letting some fluid leak back until you pump again. But honestly it sounds pretty normal, and I wouldn’t worry too much as long as it’s able stay where you want it after those extra couple of pumps.
