Some doctors say you dont really have to cycle at all. I've seen other's say they still do it 1.5 years later.

Magic,
I just passed my 2 year mark and I still cycle to the max a few times a week. Originally did 2x a day for almost the whole first year.

As ViaSwiss says above, some doctors have nothing to say about cycling, while many patients are obsessed with it. When I got my implant in 2008, Dr Kramer - who obviously knows what's what - made no mention of cycling at all, either verbally or in discharge instructions. I never "cycled" mine and have inflated it very rarely and my size remains the same as pre-implant from the first day.

My doctor was pretty strong about cycling, told me to inflate to max 4 times a day for about 30 minutes each time. He said I'd want to do that for about a year, and then could slack off. He said that would be best for maximum growth, in which I had some interest.

I got tired of messing with it so much and stopped cycling except for using it for about 3 months and then decided to start up again. I asked him if I had waited too long and would it still be worth doing and he said yes, that I should return to the 4x per day and extend the period for about 6 months if I still wanted growth.

FWIW, I grew fairly well during the first six months, but it slowed down a lot after. Now, cycling to max makes it look and feel great, but measurements show only modest gains for some time.

Worked massively for me. I thought I was done at 12 months or so and ceased for a month. One day tried it again and got the burn really bad and so began another 3 month program.
As well, I was fucking at least 4 times a week during the whole process.

From about 4.5" to about 5.5". Part of that may be that I wasn't inflating to max at the beginning. I didn't really know what "max" was, and there was enough soreness to keep me from really mashing the pump bulb. Now, I inflate as far as possible, play with my dick for 5 minutes or so, then inflate some more. Repeat a couple times. This type of inflation gets me much harder (and it feels bigger) than just inflating to "max" once. It was another suggestion from my doctor. Good doc, knows men care about size and caters to that need.

I've never been "big" by any measure. I don't remember what my length was 20 years ago before the ED kicked in, but it looks bigger to me than I remember. Still, that may just be me being happy to have my old buddy back.

Girth has increased since surgery, as well, but I never measured it.

I still get an extreme burn as soon as I inflate to max. can not stand to keep it hard longer than a few minutes. Don't do it every day anymore. Have not seen much growth since 3 months out. Think I am skinner that pre RP.
