Disappointed so far. Have I made a mistake?

[turbo900]

It’s been several weeks since I have been released by my doctor to be able to inflate my implant. While I was at my appointment, my implant was inflated as much as it would go. The doctor said that this would eventually become more hard and bigger overtime. Well, it’s been several weeks and I have had no improvement in size, girth or hardness. No matter how many times I pump and pump my implant I am barely able to get any inflation that is much more than my flaccid state. Eventually it seems like all of the fluid that’s available to go into it is there and it’s not nearly full or hard at all. Additionally the tubes that inflate in my penis only come up so far. My head remains very squishy and soft to the point where it has been difficult having any kind of intercourse because my head is so soft and will not get hard at all making it difficult to penetrate. I keep reading here about all the other guys that have had issues where it gets better and everyone keeps saying that but I am starting to worry that I’ve made a big mistake. How much longer do I have to keep pumping and pumping and pumping before it will get even remotely hard or bigger? It’s been so bad that it’s affected my mood where as I was so excited that I was finally going to be able to function again sexually but now I am even less able to do so then before my implant, making me wish I had just decided to live with what I had, because it’s certainly more than what I have now.

I would get a second opinion from another surgeon. In the meantime, pump twice a day for an hour or two. Try to get in more pumps every five minutes or so.

Hey Turbo
two things Ed has a good point but from my stand point I was so disappointed for several months then thing started getting so much better im almost 2 years now couldn't be happier it just takes lots of time and patience we all think we get done bang normal dick its not that way get another opinion but the first time my doc cycled me I wanted to punch him lol but he said have patients keep cycling it will get there what size implant did they give you ???

It does NOT take time and patience for dozens of pumps to make your penis hard. The pump is either pumping fluid or it is not. Every well known surgeon pumps the penis up firm on the operating table so if his surgeon can not pump his implant up there IS A PROBLEM!

the cylinders go far inside your glans?

This actually sounds peculiar, any comments from your surgeon? It takes me 10 pumps to get rock hard and from that point on is only pain as the skin is stretching (4 weeks from surgery, 1 week since inflating). Regarding length and girth, all users report that this take time, anything brtween 10 from 16 from surgery date. If you dont get full at all and you are sure you squeezing the pump, there might be a problem.

They do not seem to go into my glans at all.

I’m going to call my doctor tomorrow. My next check up appointment is not until the end of October and I don’t want to wait that long.

Just a thought - are you sure that when you grab the top of the pump (where the tubes come out) to hold it while you're inflating that you aren't accidentally squeezing the button? I've done that. While you're pumping you could be simultaneously deflating. It takes a little experience to get good with the pump.
