At what point is okay to judge size?

[Ineedaworkingdick]

Hi All!

I had my surgery on Monday and am now fitted with a 20cm titan implant. My question is, at what point would you deem it acceptable to measure? Am assuming there is very little point in me even looking at it before first cycling with the consultant?

And that with cycling in the first months thereafter I should see additional gains (assuming loss has occurred which I will take as a given for now)?


Cheers!

Not before your next office visit, and then when cycling it will not tell you much because it may be sore. It will be months before you will get close to your length. Jim

I have learned one thing from the guys on Franktalk and that is to be patient after implant surgery. I am scheduled for surgery on January 9,2020. I too will want to wake up with a twelve in dick. I am old enough to know that is not going to happen. My surgeon told me if you want to see what you will have after surgery get in the shower and loses up the skin and pull straight out on your penis. This he said will be close to what you have after implant surgery! We all want instant everything but it is very important to follow your doctors instructions to the letter and be patient. When I had my Urolift surgery back in March they told me to abstain from sex for four weeks. I made it three before I thought I would lose my mind. I had sex with my wife after three weeks and it worked out ok. This time I will follow my doctors advise to the letter because there is so much at stake. I wish you the best of luck. Take care of yourself!

Definitely not yet...

My dick kept growing for about 18 months.
It took me 2-3 months after surgery to be back where I was before surgery.
And then it kept on getting longer for another 15 months.

So take it easy...

I see it as 2 different things. You can measure any time you want. As far as judging goes I made my self a promise before surgery that I would not judge any part of my decision until 1 year after surgery. I also had gains past that year mark.

Good luck going forward with this.

I know I'm in the minority on this.
Before surgery I told my doctor that I wanted him to say I had the best result ever.
The first time I inflated, I was at my lifelong length.
I measured again today after 11 months and have gained almost a half inch.
It all helps.
I had no pre-existing issues.

Same as Thomas. I was at full length 4 weeks after surgery. No natural filling so skinnier and flat instead of round.
