Implant getting weaker

Good day guys,

I have had my implant 13 months ago. Everything was good until yesterday. I was masturbating and I noticed after some time that it got a bit softer and there was room again for one more pump (It was already pumped to the max). Have anyone faced this issue ? Any help ?

I haven't actually had this happen, but I have pumped standing up, laid down and tried to pump some more. I've noticed when I lay down and try to pump some more the bulb is again soft. I am assuming that is because the saline has drained back down into the reservoir while laying down.

It sounds like a problem with your valve. I don't think it is normal to lose fluid unless you release the valve on purpose. I'd check with the surgeon about this. Worst case, replacement of the pump wouldn't be terribly traumatic, much less than the full replacement surgery.
