Introduction and thoughts about an implant

Great post Lost Sheep

Women do enjoy girth more than length.

Thanks for your all this support guys. It’s really helpful for me in this situation. Because some of you asked, I live in Italy. So I will use my VED again till I get operated and try to mantain some size. I used it a lot in past but unfortunately I was still losing length and girth size.
How would you recommend to use a VED? I usually pump my penis hard as I can and than let it in this state for 15 minutes in the VED. Is this right or are there any possibilities to use it better? Maybe pump it up and down for an amount of time?

I did not use the VED for long, but my physical therapist said to vac up for 15 than 3 minute off then VAC up for 15 min every day. Don't VAC to hard to the point of damage. Measure your VAC length and girth. It will be very close to final implant size. My very experienced doc said a AMS 700 lgx works best for guys 6 inch and under. A malleable hard all the time could cause erosion inside your penis especially if sized the max. My 700lgx pumped max does not bend at all. As for storing a malleable,, I have a hard time storing my new flaccid inflatable at 5 1/2 and completely soft. Your thoughts of how easy a malleable may be to store. You won't know till you are there. My doc said some guys have problems with the Titan being too bulky. I go commando when ever I can.

You are most likely losing length due to your peryonies more than the ed. It is important that you stretch yourself regularly. An implant is a very common treatment for peyronies. There is nothing to be gained by delaying an implant. Sorry for the bad news but I think most members here will agree with me. Good luck & keep reading.

What I've read and been told my my doctor and the insurance company is that the accepted standard for treating Peyronie's disease is with an INFLATABLE penile implant. The important word here is inflatable because the malleables won't stretch and break the plaques but the inflatable will.

Thank you, I’ve started to use my VED again today. When I’m erect in the VED my size is much larger and longer than in a normal erect state. I must tell than my normal erect state is just a 60% erection. From what I’ve heared the erect state for the implant it’s gonna be measured by a skat injection (caverjact), but my erection in VED is still way bigger than with skat. How could the doctor give me the best size of an implant if I can’t get even 80% hard with skat?

My opinion & likely not a very popular one. Peyronies is horrible. The longer that you wait the higher the chance becomes that total recovery might be very difficult to get. Quit worrying about recovering your length. Worry about stopping the progression of the disease. The surgeon is not going to install a larger implant than what he can measure inside your penis. So, the longer you wait, your penis with get shorter. Thus you'll likely be getting a shorter implant. Do you see where this goes?
Waiting & worrying about loss of length assures that you will lose length. Loss of length is not the problem. Stopping more loss is the problem.

The doctor does NOT choose the proper size of the implant by measuring after an injection. There is a tool in the implant kit that he pushes up into your penis to the glans. It has measurements on it. He also pushes the tool down into your body(cruses) and measures that length. He adds the two numbers together and that is what he will install. Your VED length is same as your stretch length. For and approximation of length after the implant, the VED length what you will probably have. Have you Googled Dr Kramer? He has lots of videos of the operation. Maybe someone can attach a link. Good luck.

Thank you again. So will the penis not be measured in a erect state for the implant? This may be a problem because I’m an extremely grower and my flaccid size is like 30% of my erect....

You don't understand. To get a stretch length grab the tip(glans) and pull it out and measure it. The VED does the same thing. It sucks the flaccid penis out to full stretch length. That is the hard length you will probably be after the implant.Also google u-tube videos:: Dr Perito, "meet the penis" there is about 40 videos about implants.
