new implant- cycling pain

[whatevery]

I reviewed some posts on here and the somewhat heated discussion regarding eventual additional length caught my attention (Letoman and Elbow room vs Whatevery).

Whatever I was saying pertains only to LGX. Talked to few people in Europe/Australia that got implanted in the last few years but never came across anyone with AX who expanded beyond his pre-op length. Pray you guys prove me wrong.

Thank you for that clarification. I hope you are right in principle. Length expanding implants only will expand if allowed by the tunica, which will only enlarge under pressure (if at all)- and the process is very slow, once maximum pre-op expansion has been achieved. Or not... don't know yet. Will definitely post results after 9 more months of diligent effort. And yes, I know that replacement IPP's are usually upsized after 2 years or more.

After reading your discussion, I did a search for IPP post-op gains from pre-op maximums. I surely did it wrong, because this site is not littered with reports like that. In a way, that is surprising- especially to me, coming from experience in the PE world- where I absolutely saw gains, and I personally know that for a fact.

I would think that more effective PE, such as with an implant (if done with discipline), would yield results. I have read of occasional success here and there, but it is surprisingly sparse. This is counterintuitive to me. This is regarding length... the girth of an AX is 4.5 inches (the circumference of 2 tubes sitting side by side); this is what sits in the cavernosa, so whatever theoretical expansion capability there may be is limited. Length in the lab (not in vivo) on the other hand expands by approximately 4 cm- not the limiting factor. The limiting factor is tunica expansion, as your critics point out. My question is whether meaningful expansion of the tunica can occur. The cellular mechanisms for remodeling over time are generally understood but not directly studied for the tunica. I can only resolve this question in my uncontrolled study of one, which I intend to do.
