I have read testimonies from men who had severe VL, either congenitally, from injury, or from unknown cause. I know that it plagued me a few years ago. But the constant take-away is that an implant will correct the condition. If this is correct, what is the speculation for? I must be missing something.
Let me suggest a comparison:
A man has a
knee that no longer works. The
knee goes out of alignment, wobbles left and right and cannot be counted on to remain straight or to function normally.
The solution?
Brace that stabilizes the instability/floppiness and makes the
leg straight and strong for
walking.
The
brace did not "fix" the underlying problem. The
brace enables the
limb (combined brace and leg/foot) to
walk, to bear weight, etc)
Now substitute certain words
A man has a
penis that no longer works. The
penis goes out of alignment, wobbles left and right and cannot be counted on to remain straight or to function normally.
The solution?
Implant that stabilizes the instability/floppiness and makes the
penis straight and strong for
sex.
The
implant did not "fix" the underlying problem. The
implant enables the
penis (combined implant and penis) to
achieve penetrative sex)
The only difference in the above two narratives is, of course, the brace is external and the implant is internal.
Take the brace off and the leg still flops around, just like before. Do not inflate the implant and the penis is limp, just like before. SOMETIMES inserting an implant can restrict the leak in one's veins, thereby reducing venous leakage. But (as I posted before) this never (in the medical literature I have found) 100%, not an intended consequence and a rather unlikely outcome. But sometimes occurs by fortuitous accident. NEVER 100%. NEVER predictable.
