Cylinder Break-in Period

Postby 1Roofer » Mon Sep 26, 2022 9:55 pm

How long did it take other implantees cylinders to relax or break in?

Did you notice any changes physically or anatomically after they broke in?

Thank you for any & all input.

There is another recent thread specific to Titan on this same subject.
viewtopic.php?f=6&t=20254
According to this thread, 6 months is about the average turning point for Titian.

Is your question directed towards guys with; Titian, CX, or LGX?
Or is it intended to be an open comparison of all?

My Titan took about 6 months to feel softer. The cylinders are still firmer than natural though. And they don't shrink much.

I had a Titan for 27 months with very little change. It was always semi erect and sticking out @ 3:30 position. Never felt natural and I hated it.
