I never thought to ask this question. Couldn't find it on the forum. When you cycle is it intermittenty pumping the dick up and releasing the dick? Or is it straight up for as long as you can stand it or is required by your doctor.

I pump it up as far as I can stand it and try to keep it that way for 15-30 minutes, when I can. Sometimes I only have time for 5 minutes or so, but I almost always get it to the point that it is pretty uncomfortable. I try for 2x a day. It's been a year, and I'm still getting bigger -- slowly.

Sometimes it is hard to find time to pump it up and leave it hard for long. Easiest for me is to pump it up while the shower gets warmed up and leave it that way till I am done. If the shower ends up taking a long time.....well that is another story. The other is pump it up when I go to bed. Can't lay on your stomach all the way hard and it will wake you when it is ready for a deflate. Pumped firm enough to lay on will not wake me but will require a deflate at get up to pee time which is usually every 2 hours. On my second implant and now fairly sure that pumping to the max possible as early as possible is important if you want to maximize your potential. Cheers.

Sooner the better must be my Docs theory. He kept me at 90% or so for the full 4 weeks of healing. Hurt like hell. Laying on my back I have to keep a warm towel on it because of my ice cold glans. Laying on it is the way I do it. Then deflate later.

I would guess once the pain goes away during cycling having your dick up all the time leads to lots of horniness

The intent of cycling is to stretch penile tissues to give the implant a chance to stretch to its maximum potential. That is best accomplished by leaving it inflated, not pumping up, deflating, and pumping up again. I am close to 11 months post-op and I am seeing some growth. My habit is to pump up as I am first waking up in the morning. Sometimes I dose off again and it is wonderful to have that sensation of waking up with morning wood. I also pump up when going to bed. It takes me awhile to fall asleep so I deflate as I am starting to feel sleep coming on. In addition my wife and I have sex on average four times a week and I masturbate seven days a week so that is also providing time to stretch my implant.

Greg-what about the first few weeks after getting implant. Were you able to keep it up for awhile?

My doc had me inflate and leave it for 30 min 2 times per day. The first week was very painful and tissue was still healing. So i did it when i woke and when i went to bed. Set a timer on my phone to know when to deflate.

Horny all the time at 76 yr old. Wife is ready to throw me out.

David64 did you do any cycling in the tub?
