Re: 10 year implant anniversary

My first AMS LGX lasted 7 years . Sex a couple of times a week on average. My theory is that the implant life is related to how much general movement the deflated implant is subjected to rather than how many times it's inflated. Movement from walking, exercising etc causing friction and wear within ...

Re: Does your spouse pump it?

Have tried and it did not go well. Too many sensitive bits in the area. There is definitely a technique for holding the pump with one hand while pumping with the other. Best left to the expert!!

Re: PENIS PAIN and WEAK ERECTIONS WITH INJECTIONS

Post prostatectomy I had pain with Alprostadil ( Cavaject). Moved to Trimix which gave good erections with little pain but caused Peyronies within 2 months of using. Trimix is known to do this in some people. I had an implant three years after the RP and only wish I had done it sooner. I had nerve s...

Re: Ams 700 reliability

My first AMS LGX lasted 7 years, now 2 years into the second one. Both the first and second gets plenty of use.
I think 7 years is fairly typical, however it would be good to see some data on life span and failure mode

Re: why no sex after implant?

The surgeon I used advised 6 weeks before sex to ensure proper healing, I think we made it to about 5 weeks before putting it to use.

Re: Test Shot : alprostadil vs trimix

My experience with both 10 years ago was that Alprostadil gave me a lot of pain and 3 hour erections, even on small doses. Tried Trimix which worked well with no pain, but I developed Peyronies (upward Curve of 30 deg mid shaft) after 3 months. I understand from my Urologist that Trimix is well know...

Re: Revision and Traction

I had a revision 10 months ago and had to wait 6-8 weeks from the time of failure of the old implant to the revision. I asked the urologist/surgeon if I would get loss of length from no cycling for that period. He said no, there would not be any loss of length or girth. I started cycling at 4 weeks ...

Re: Why just alprostadil instead of trimix

Trimix can cause fibrosis and Peyronies in some people. This happened to me within 2 months of using Trimix.

Re: still sore after 3.5 months

It was 6 months from my revision for the soreness to pass. Now 9 months on it can be a little tender in the glans area after hard pumped and vigorous use. The tenderness passes in 12-24 hrs.
