Has anyone ever been denied an implant?

Has anyone ever been denied an implant due to their type of ed? Is there any type of physical ed that invalidates you from getting an implant?

I believe most men are candidates for implants. There are several men on here who have psychological ED and were able to get implanted. I do not know of any medical obstacles that prevent men from being implanted.

Short answer. I have not read of a FT member that was denied an implant due to the type of ED they had. I have read of a member that Dr. Eid recommended injections to be followed with an implant at a later date. As I recall he was on the younger side. This strategy likely would save him 1 revision in his lifetime.
You need to remember that implants have been around a very long time. Thus the makers have pretty much designed an implant for almost every man that can tolerate the surgery.

If you mean by insurance, insurance is kind of a pain in the ass with implants. I ended up having to pay it on my own…..but I’m hopeful that I can write a bunch of it off on my taxes.

I knew a guy who was denied the implant due to massive fibrosis

I saw three urologists who all said no to an implant , one suggested I do nothing, one suggested a Nesbit and the other shockwave therapy. My fourth uro didn’t hesitate and could not believe what I had previously been told.

I have my pre op bloods next week and I would assume I could still be rejected if they come back abnormal ie high HBA1c and my diabetes

Let me guess. One didn't do implants or peyronies sugeries. One didn't do implants but did do peyronies sugeries. One had a shockwave machine & needed to make the payments.
Your final uro understands that implants are considered the "gold standard" for peyronies. HBA1C under 7 is preferred but I've read of men getting implants with over 7 readings. I want to say he was around 8. I think it depends upon you doctors opinion, maybe even your health insurance gets a say in it. Good luck.
