Re: Pain with Trimax
The lidocaine in not for the injection so you don’t feel the needle. It is for the deep pain in the internal penis (corporal bodies) where the medicine ends up. It is caused by the prostaglandin component of the Trimix. It is a common occurrence. It is an achy burning discomfort that may last three ...

Re: Anyone use TRIMIX with added Lidocaine or Xylocaine?
When I first used Trimix the compounding pharmacy mixed lidocaine per the Dr prescription. It worked very well without pain. I couldn’t tolerate it without the Lido, pain lasting 3-4 hours. The pharmacy later refused to add lido saying the Trimix producer would not let them. Switched to Bimix and my...

Re: Over 70 Men
Hi Tomcat. I am 73 and had my implant surgery done two and a half years ago. Had prostate cancer surgery on 2007. After exhausting all non-surgical treatments I opted for an implant because nothing was working. My wife and I were not ready to give up the sexual intimacy part of our lives. It is impo...

Re: New ED treatment device targeting veno-occlusive dysfunction mechanism
Remember that this is just the beginning of investigation of this potential therapy. It probably will be years before a valid treatment is available if at all depending on outcome of further study.

Re: How soon after surgery for intercouse?
I had my f/u with the surgeon at 4 weeks post op. He said to wait until the 6 week time frame to have intercourse. We got to five and a half weeks cause we were both pretty horny. I started cycling at 4weeks and my scrotum was never vey sore since I had an infrapubic approach. I hadn’t regained the ...

Re: VEDs Prior to Implant Worth it?
It was definitely worth it for me. My original surgery was scheduled for Dec first 2021. I did about 5 weeks of VED prior. Got covid that canceled the surgery. This gave me the opportunity to do daily vacuum therapy for almost two more months. I saw visual proof of regaining length of about 1.5 cm b...

Re: New member from Ohio.
Thank you for your welcoming words. I still will cycle 3-4 times a week for sex obviously, but also other times as well just to give my penis exercise. I don’t want to let more than 2-3 days pass without an erection. Maybe still looking for that last bit of improvement in length and girth In additio...
