Why is the pump first, after 20 squeezes rock hard, but a few moments later I can pump like forever but the implant doesn't get any harder?
From my own experience, and others on this board, the LGX pumps can take a long time to really break in.
I've gotten to that stage, with about 25 serious pumps, where I just can't get any more in, and then the bulb just gets really easy. It appears to be re-filling, but all of a sudden it's easy. I think that may be the valve just getting stuck or something. What I've done is pressed the deflate for a very quick second, then began pumping again. At about 4 months, this rarely ever happens anymore.
I also have lgx. I can tell you that I specifically asked my doctor how I know when I've pumped the system to capacity.
He explained to me that you have to pump until the bulb becomes as hard as possible... wait a few minutes and try pumping again.
When you reach the maximum, the pump will become very soft and therefore subsequent pumping will no longer be of any use because the maximum has been reached.
what I have noticed is that to have an optimal result it is better to pump in several steps, so as to allow the penis to expand slowly and obtain the maximum in terms of length and circumference.
Another thing I noticed is that the LGX is actually more flexible than I thought. the rigidity on the shaft is very good but the penis at the base remains a little flexible. CX and TITAN are certainly better in terms of flexibility.
