REALITY or MYTH? VED use prior to Implant

Postby JonG2020 » Sun Apr 17, 2022 10:36 pm

Question is? Those with true valid examples! Did consistently using a VED prior to “your” IPP make a difference. Either perceived or in your surgeons opinion. I’m scheduled for an implant on June 8.(Can’t wait) I’ve used a VED since 4/2020. I do 5mg Cialis and 24 minutes VED daily. All you can do, is all you can do. Two rings won’t maintain an erection. Pumped about my IPP. Thanks gentlemen.

VED therapy (there are 2 good papers in the general section of this forum under the documents worth reading thread) is for preventing or restoring recent size loss. It is not for enlargement. I cannot have 2 virgin IPP's. One with VED use and one without to compare and give you proof. You either believe the published documents or you don't. I think it did help me.

Several of the prominent top implant surgeon advocate VED use in their YouTube videos. They've seen fit to invest their time & money to produce their videos. Like newbie443 states. Believe them or not is up to you. But honestly, if you don't believe them at their word. Then pray tell me why you believe them about implants. They're either liars or their not. Which is it?

Thanks guys. Newbie, glad to hear your eyewitness account of VED helping your implant. I was just wondering if someone had actually experienced results with their own Implant. I’ve read the articles and been using VED for two years. Always nice to hear a true account.

Hey man! Have you made any gain in length with VED?

The only thing that’s certain is; there will be no benefiting results, if you don’t try.

Over 10 years I lost about 5cm (2”) length after Prostatectomy plus atrophy from ensuing ED. I casually used a VED after surgery for maintenance but put gave up when daily Cialis started giving me night time erections and injecting was working for date night. However When I made the decision to get an IPP, I became more diligent using the VED for 15-20 minutes a least 5 days per week. On the VED scale, I’m consistently pulling 2cm more length now than 6 months ago. The other difference is I now get to max length at 2-3 minutes into the VED session whereas it took 10+ minutes previously.

I have no disillusion that I’ll get back to my pre-surgery length. Reclaiming loss to atrophy has been a slow but somewhat steady process for me. I’m currently on blood thinners and bruise easily so I can’t get too aggressive. However I firmly believe that when I finally get my IPP, the surgeon will be able to place something larger than if I didn’t use the VED prior to surgery.

May I ask you what is your current length?

VED prior implant is very important. I have done it for 7 years, only then was I ready for the implant. Haven‘t lost anything, however without VED I would have lost a lot, that‘s for sure.

I did VED daily for an hour.

My Trimix induced erections currently max around 6” measured by BP method. Six-nine months ago that number was closer to 5.5” so my trimix induced erections are growing proportional to the reclaim I’m seeing on the VED scale.

I knew I would be getting a IPP sooner than later toward the end of last year so I started using a VED. I had been using injections for a year at that point and was always around 6-1/4” but always felt like I used to be bigger. First month I gained about a quarter of an inch doing 20-30 min 4-5 times a week. Second month I again gained about a 1/4”. Since late February I was at 6-3/4” and have continued pumping 4-5 times a week but the gains slowed WAY down and I can now pump between 6-7/8 and 7” consistently and it does get there much easier than at first. Also my girth has increased by about a 1/4 in during this same time period. Will mention that my injected length has been identical to my pumped length thruout this year. Feel very confident that he will definitely be able to install a larger IPP on may 18th than if I hadn’t been pumping. At my meet the Dr visit in March I told him of my pumping and he suggested I continue pumping right up to the surgery date. Who knows with a titan I’ll probably gain a little girth also.
