I can’t speak for the CX. It’s my understanding it will be similar to the LGX from a girth expansion point of view.
My personal experience. I’m one of apparently very few that did measure girth before surgery. (Both length and girth, along with some pictures using tape measures and rulers—-evidence if I had to sue someone lol)
The AMS products did result in a loss of girth. I was 6” around before, and I’m 5 5/8” in circumference now.
Did my surgery go well? Check
Did I recover quickly? Check
Did I have any infection? No
Did my surgeon’s office provide lots of after-installation support? As much as I wanted.
Have I had any trouble in almost 4 years of being bionic? None
Would I let them put an AMS in me next time? Absolutely. If that’s the best fit based on what I might need during a revision, I have no qualms.
Would I have a problem trying a Titan? Again, if that’s the best fit the doctor has my blessings.
My surgeon seems to favor the LGX. To be specific, he likes installing the 18 cm LGX. So much so that he put 5 cm of RTEs with mine.
From the reading guys seem to gain at least 1 if not 3 cm during a revision. So I’m looking at 24-26 cm worth if/when I get revised.
That might be something best dealt with using a Titan.
Bigger picture is yeah, I lost a tiny amount of girth with an AMS. I got all my length back. This thing is so much a part of me I’ll be damned if I can remember life without reliable erection on demand.
It looks good. It works good. I’m happy. If you’re hung up on 3/8” of girth you’ve got bigger issues than simply the ED.
My advice is share whatever concerns and goals you have with your surgeon, and let him guide you to the model he thinks will work best for you.
