Recovering lost length with IPP implant, wishful thinking?
Hello brothers, I have lost an inch of my erect length due to low testosterone. My testosterone level has returned, but not my size. I barely get hard, and my left erection chamber has narrowed near the base. I was considering an IPP implant. How likely can an Implant recover the lost size? I have read some anecdotal reports where people have recovered their lost dimension.
I ( 29 M) took Spironolactone 400 mg to treat my hair loss. As a result, the penis shrunk from 6” to 4”. with Severe erectile dysfunction. Looking into the penile implant with Sliding Technique.

Are you currently doing VED therapy? Here is a link to a paper in the general section of this forum in the Documents worth reading list thread. https://file.scirp.org/pdf/ASM_2013012514045982.pdf
Worth a try if your doctor does not object. I did that over 3 weeks prior to my surgery. Some have done it much longer and I remember a guy did it for over a year prior. It help will keep your healthy tissue elastic. How much I don't know but most say it won't hurt so the most you loose is some time and might prevent more loss or gain a bit.
Might try seeing a specialist about the narrowing. Ask what can be done about it either before or during implant surgery.
Good luck.

I did ved and traction for about 6 months before my implant. Got me an inch better before implant. So I went from 5 to 6 inch stretch test.
After cycling for 10 months I am pretty close to my pre ed size of 7 inches. I had bad peyronies, plaque, hourglass, etc to.
I would just say. Do not wait. Just get it done. The longer you wait the more elasticity you lose.

Thanks for your contribution. If I may ask, what was the reason for your impotence? Have you had an atrophy set in due ED? One thing I don't understand is that if your surgeon has sized you for 6” then how can it expand up to 7”?

Get a VED. Medical grade is not needed. Amazon , about $30.00. Suck it up an measure it. Your VED size will be about what implant will give you. Don't Vac till it hurts. Can you get a URO to prescribe trimix for you? Measure your trimix size including the part down in your cruses. That should be your total implant size.

Implant most definitely won’t give you your VED size.
Size in VED is like reading with magnifying glass.
