Size after implant

Postby Steve5231 » Tue May 31, 2022 3:19 pm

I’m really considering an implant but am wondering, do all doctors do a stretch test first? Or are there other methods to determine the after implant pumped size?
75 years old. Was on Viagra and then Cialis but got fed up with the side effects. Switched to Tri-Mix 3 years ago but had increasingly reduce effect. Finally implanted 1/19/2023. Always looking for advice. Live in Illinois.

The stretch test only provides a very rough idea of implant-erect size. The important, critical measurements are taken in surgery where the surgeon measures the internal length of the cavernosum and crux, both sides. That's what matters. Some doctors don't even bother with stretch test.

Dr. Eid injects his patients with PGE, does a measurement of length and girth, and guarantees to maintain those pre-op measurements. Though it took me about 3 months of VED and cycling, I have exceeded those measurements.

I dont remember my doc doing the stretch test but he may have done it when i was knocked out. All went well and regained my length and a bit more girth.

What if PGE doesn't really get you full anymore?

The injection is just for your own benefit, to get a reminder of what your size is approximately like. In reality, the implant size will be determined from whatever Dr Eid can fit inside you while on the operating table.
