Question about max pumping

[Lost Sheep]

Wow, i only do 4-5 pumps after setting the button and a few little ones too finish to steel hard on, whats up with that? I have a 67 reservoir.

Lucky you!

If you get to full size and full rigidity and only have to do a few pumps, consider yourself fortunate.

As to why you only need a few pumps to get full inflation/erection, some more information about your dimensions would be helpful to us in understanding (and reflecting that understanding back to you.)

Girth and length before implant, both flaccid and erect. Girth and length after implant, both flaccid and erect.

When you deflate, how extensively do you deflate? I deflate sometimes just be letting the saline flow back to the reservoir by itself. This leaves me with a flaccid that hangs by gravity, but does have some fullness to it. Much like a post ejaculation penis. Sometimes, I will squeeze and squish every last bit of the saline back into the reservoir and get my penis. This deflates my penis to an almost flattened state wherein I can feel the implant's cylinders and the folds in them as I manipulate my penis.

(Edited to add explicitness) If one starts from fully deflated, it will take more pumps than if one starts from only partially deflated.

What kind of observations/measurements can you report to us. How extensively you deflate will affect how many pumps it takes to get from that state to fully inflated. That is, if you are starting from a partially inflated state already, it will take fewer pumps to get fully erect.

I have a pic on dick of the day. I was 7" erect pre implant and 5" girth. Post implant am 6.25" erect, 5" girth. I dont always squeeze it down and when i do it doesn't look good cause of the bumps and wrinkles so i give it a pump to set the inflate button and leave at that. I think it inflates a little bit on its own standing up, but i see what your saying and probably does take less pumps.i never gave that a thought, thx!

I haven't heard of anyone having to pump as much as I do to reach full inflation. Dick size is not the end all as to how many pumps it takes. I've talked to two guys bigger than I am and one of them pumps 40 times and the . other one 22 times. Neither of them had heard of anyone else pumping as much as me. It took about 80 pumps at six months out and now it take around a hundred to get it rock hard. I mentioned it to my doctor but he didn't seem that concerned. Yes I am pumping full pumps and taking breaks in between. It just frustrating to have to pump that much to get it fully hard. It works great but that is tiring. I've wondered if my pump is faulty in some way. It really concerns me that it takes more and more.
If i could get down to forty I'd be delighted

Wow, thats a lot of pumps. Im not familiar with a titan pump, but you sure you're getting the click or pop when setting inflate button? I put my pointer finger behind block and thumb on tubes by block. Can you tell if the button is all the way up? Not trying to make you feel silly, but that just seems a lot and that would be the only thing I can think of! Unless someone has another idea.

Have you asked the Coloplast Patient Liaison about this? That does seem like more pumps than any designer would intend for a guy.

I know my pumping technique (hand position, which hand I use, etc) makes a difference in how many pumps I need to reach erection. Maybe a bit of coaching/experimentation would improve your situation?

I've tried all the pumping trick I could think of and a lot others have suggested. I've talked to a patient rep but not a Coloplast reprehensive. I think I need to call one and ask. Every man I've talked to say they pump between 20 and 40 at the most and some of them are bigger than me so I know that's not it.
I love my implant and it works great just a lot of work pumping it so much.

Just a thought. Perhaps your pump isn't very effective at moving the rated volume of fluid. But yet, it works too well to be called "failed" & needing to be replaced. I can envision that a pump could continue to work but not be considered "failed".
