Sensitivity and feelings with an implant

[hope794]

Hello everyone. Since always, probably cause i'm circumcised, my sensitivity has been below average. But i am perfectly fine with it, because this is my "normal". And it was great because i could ever last as much as i wanted with girls, even 1 hour if i wanted to.

But in the last days, while reading your threads, i've noticed people who keep saying "A blood filled penis will ALWAYS BE BETTER than an implant!" (with regards to sensations)

Can someone please argument and share his experience with me? My questions are:

1. Does sensitivity drop with an implant? Please note that i will need to put a graft.

2. Will the sensations change? Is there a difference in sensations between a fully inflated implant and a blood filled penis? Is the first less comfortable or pleasurable?

Thank you!

1. I haven't noticed a drop in sensitivity. I have been able to orgasm via masturbation (solo and mutual), oral, and anal sex since getting the implant 2 months ago.

2. It feels different, for sure. When mostly deflated, you can feel the implant tubes moving around...When you're inflated, if you're overinflated, it can be quite uncomfortable. Different levels of inflation work for different sex acts as well, but you just have to feel things out.

In the very few erections I had that allowed me to last through penetrative sex before the implant, it was a better experience, but not by much. I have an implant because I was able to accomplish that <1% of my sexual encounters. I exhausted pretty much EVERY option before going for an implant. It's the last resort for a reason. I would trade it for Cialis actually giving me a full erection, or even injections doing the trick...

But if you need it, then it's a good solution, and can be very pleasurable. Maybe not as good as a natural erection, but generally that's not an option for those of us who get an implant, so it's pointless to compare.

You posted that "I haven't noticed a drop in sensitivity" since your surgery. That's terrific for you! However, I cannot agree with your conclusion that "it's pointless to compare" the feeling of a blood-filled penis with one that has an IPP inside of it instead of blood flow. The potential difference is something that every man should consider as part of his decision-making. You are able to be cavalier about this since you were fortunate to not lose sensitivity but I'm one of many, many implantees who have posted on FT about an outcome that doesn't quite match yours.

Blood flow to the glans is created from nerves other than what fills the corpa. If you had glans engorgment before the IPP you should have glans engorgment after IPP.

Hey, oldbeek. Yes, what you wrote is accurate and fairly common knowledge among most post-op FT members. However, just having blood flow to my glans has not restored the sensitivity I used to feel pre-op in my shaft and glans, leaving me unable (6 months post-op) to reach orgasm or ejaculate except with difficult masturbation.

Well, what I meant there was that when the choice is completely unable to have sex versus can have sex with loss of sensitivity, what point is the comparison? The point of my statement is probably pretty in line with yours...If you DO have the ability to have sex now, think really REALLY hard about whether you want an implant, because it is not an improvement on anything except erectile ability. And it comes with risk of lost sensitivity, infection, device breakdown, discomfort, etc...

The point is that for some men the value they place on the pleasure/release felt from achieving orgasm/ejaculation might be greater than the value they place on the rigidity of their erection. It is a factor that men should include in their consideration of an IPP.

Would you trade it for Cialis if you had to work at keeping it amast during sex? With trimix, I had the first experience in my life where I could focus on sex and not worry about my erection, it was the best sex I ever had, even though no orgasm. So, an implant seems attractive in that sense.

Cialis had about a 15-30% chance of keeping me erect enough for orgasm, but about a 5% chance of being erect enough for penetration (once in a blue moon). If I could have gotten to 50/50 chance of penetrating, I would have probably stuck with Cialis rather than implant.

If Trimix worked for me, I 100% would have accepted and stuck with that rather than an implant.

@hopeful_future:

Bro, your clip on one of your posts has a link to dropbox where you are cumming and shaking all over your body. I am happy for you to have such an orgasmic rush that effects your whole body. Even your hands are shaking as you try to manipulate the toy or whatever.

If you have experienced a loss of sensitivity, it is a shame that you could not market your sensitivity pre implant to us other men, as it must have been off the charts. Your total body orgasms shaking and trembling your body are amazing. Tell us more about what sensitivity you have lost with the implant as it is totally not apparent in your video of your orgasmic pleasure with that toy in that video. You are a blessed man to have those type orgasms even post implant. My hat is off to you as most men would give their right arm to orgasm like that. Please explain more about your loss of sensitivity.

Appreciation and envy here.
