I had radical prostatectomy on 8.19. I am very unhappy with my size after surgery. Anyone know why doctors want you to wait a month before pumping?

Not a Dr and this is just my opinion but I know a few guys who have been there…. My buddy had radical prostatectomy and in his case they removed a section of the urethra and reattached it to the bladder… your fortunate to get to pump or inject as early as 4 weeks as others I’ve known had to wait 8 weeks…which would pull a lot on the reconnected urethra. Also that’s the cause of most loss of length… again, I’m not a Dr but what I’ve heard makes a lot of sense

Many doctors do a pressure test on the urethra. Have you had that?
Don't panic about your length. The poor little guy has been badly traumatized and is in hiding. Get fully healed before stretching things out with the VED. You'll be fine. Just be patient, the VED therapy will work just fine when you get the OK to start it.

Thanks for calming me down guys. Today I was greenlighted for pumping and hit 6 3/4" so I was very pleased!
My local uro said I can start injections in two more weeks so I am feeling very hopeful!
