There's one major concern holding me back there, however: size. I'm not that large to begin with (measure around 5.5", a bit shy of 6" when measuring bone-pressed), so naturally I worry about becoming even smaller. Now, being realistic, I do realise that some size loss might be unavoidable, and I'd still be happy if I ended up with a functional 5" penis afterwards (that seems to be the limit of "decent size" vs "is it in yet?"). My major concern, however, is that I'm not only a grower, but also have a significantly shorter stretched flaccid length! I'm talking max 4" here (say 3.5"-4.25" depending on its current state) when pulling it to a point where it already gets really uncomfortable (it also gets super thin when I do this, but I guess that's normal?). Now, as I understand it, stretched flaccid length is the best way to estimate your post-op inflated length, since you'll also be measured "from the inside" by having your penis stretched maximally with a stick/ruler. Obviously, I'd be pretty disappointed if I end up with a 4" penis afterwards. I know it shouldn't matter that much, and I'm sure that if you are 7+ inches it really doesn't, but it's really a completely different matter when you don't have much to lose to begin with.
So, am I basically doomed here? Are there any other members who also had such a big difference in stretched vs erect length (and if so, what did you end up with after getting your implant)? Also, any ideas on why there can be such a big difference in my case? Perhaps there is some fibrosis/scar tissue that I'm not noticing, but in that case my erect length would also be shorter, right?
Thanks in advance!
