I’ve made my decision and it’s cause of you guys

Postby drayan123 » Wed Oct 05, 2022 10:22 am

Man I’m so happy I’ve found frank talk you guys support everything and everyone . Only we know what we go through and we all know that it ruins us in every part of our life . Ed ruins a Mans life today I’ve made my decision to sort out my insurance and get my implant asap as far as I know there are barely any complications if you choose a good surgeon. I’ve seen so many happy stories and sad but at the end of the day we need to realise we are not in this world forever just go for it pick urself up boys you got this and good luck .

I am happy for you. I hope all goes well and you have a sex life after this. There are many men that regret not doing this earlier in their lives. It's better to have than to have not.

But on the negative side of my response is that I am assuming you've talked to professionals and maybe some others about other options. I'm assuming that there's no chance that you're ED can't be resolved in the next 2 to 5 years with other treatments. I say this because I was 20 a long time ago, and I've made some terrible decisions at that age that I will regret my whole life. Thinking about alternatives could prevent life long regrets.

But if you are sure that there's no other options and you responsibly checked it all out, and you do need an implant, you'll be happy you did. Young men having love lives are a wonderful thing. It's not fun or good going through your 20s and 30s without a love life. Hoping the best for you.

ED caused me to get really depressed, killed my libido and made me a nasty person. I hated pills and injections and wonder if their usage was part of the reason for my depression and bad attitude.
Have to say I wish I'd have found FT before my decision for the implant. There is so much good info here. The guys here are knowledgeable and supportive.
Make sure you're doing this for the right reason, use a good surgeon. Since you're young expect to have a couple of revisions down the road. The good part about that is future implants will only get better.

I feel the same. When I first started to confront the fact that I needed an implant if I ever wanted to have anything resembling sex I was horrified. No way no how. Between the testimonies of folks on this forum, and a wise therapist who said something like "hey, things wear out as we age and we have the ability to get knee replacements, hip replacements, whatever else" I came to not only accept this solution but really actively look forward to life after 11/1, my planned surgery date. Good luck and all the best.

Do your research on peoples journey. Prepare for the first few weeks. I had a very easy recovery, but some don’t. But very few regret it even if they had a very rough time so plan on the worst and you’ll be happy if it’s not bad. It’s DEFINITELY worth it after a few weeks. Good luck with your implant.

Implant surgery is a big step. My thought has always been if you blew out a knee would you just limp around or use a wheelchair the rest of your life? Doubtful for anyone.
Remember many of the posts here are because guys are having issues. There are many more guys with implants who never post here, they are just happily using it.
Best of luck on your upcoming surgery.
