Penile implant with hard flaccid questions

Postby Keith_Walts » Fri Nov 15, 2024 9:41 pm

Hey everyone, I've suffered from hard flaccid syndrome for almost six years now and have reached my limit. I'm considering a penile implant to put the matter to bed for good. Anyone with hard flaccid knows that is a torturous awful condition, that you feel and deal with every second of the day. The chronic discomfort from the rigid, retracting, twisting penis is worse than any sexual dysfunction that accompanies it.

So my two big questions here are regarding that, comfort. I'm a 27 year old man, and I want to live a very active athletic life. As a result I'd like to ask anyone here who was an implant, even without prior hard flaccid: How comfortable is your implant in daily life? Do you feel it, are you aware of it when sitting/driving/lifting? Are you able to say, fall down on a bed onto your stomach or have a dog jump onto your lap without feeling hardware or pain down there? Hard flaccid makes every moment of the day miserable and I'm trying to get away from being omnipresently aware of my dick.

Question 2 is for the guys who had hard flaccid and then made the jump to the implant. Did it get rid of the sensations of hard flaccid? Is your penis now soft? Does it not retract, does it not twist, do you not feel strange contracting sensations in the corpora anymore? Is it just like a normal dick chilling there?

To be clear, hard flaccid (atleast in my case) is not pelvic floor dysfunction. It is autonomic nervous dysfunction affecting the corpora which was caused by exposure to a toxic pharmaceutical. Please dont suggest pelvic pt, been there, done that. I appreciate everyone's time, and thanks.

Hi:

I contracted hard flaccid following a bacterial infection and lived with it for four years. During that time, I tried radial pulse waves, Cialis, TRT, PT, even spinal injections (as suggested by Goldstein). Nothing worked. The implant worked. No more penile contraction, and even my ejaculation improved; it shoots out again rather than just eeks out due to the tight corpora. To answer question 2, yes, it's just like a normal dick chilling there.

As to whether it's eliminated my being omnipresently aware of my dick (you worded it great), not really. I can definitely feel that I have an implant and am very cautious of the pump in my balls, like when I drive a car or sit in a hard booth at a restaurant. I am always aware that I have hardware inside of me.

So, does it resolve hard flaccid. Absolutely; the problem concerns the corpora, and the corpora has been "stripped out." But that's not to say the implant is perfect; it comes with its own host of concerns.

The only thing that concerns me is; considering that the implant only interest the corpus cavernosum don't you still have some kind of hard flaccid-ness in the corpus spongiosum? Also if you pump while not being aroused does it feel like an empty dick with a silicon rod inside ?
Hard flaccid syndrome since 2019. Trying to get better with conservative treatments but an implant is on my radar

I think you are right on with the cause of hard flaccid. I’ve dealt with it in varying degrees over the last five years due to stopping an ssri antidepressant suddenly. Experimenting with other low dose meds had helped with some of it as well as others aggravated it so it can definitely be caused by pharmaceuticals. I am also exploring getting the implant soon. I’m just tired of the lack of sensation, the shrinkage and the ed. Sometimes pde5s help temporarily but it’s just draining constantly dealing with it. I have read of one or two who had good success with an implant. I’ve even tried Botox with very limited success

The first few months of implantation you will be 100% aware of your dick! Every day all the time, setting, walking or doing anything.Especially since I went from a turtle 2” to a 5-1/2” minimum flaccid. And very firm compared to my non implanted. It gets better with time and by the one year mark you become so used to it that it just seems normal. Not painful after the first few months just totally aware that it’s there. You’ll hear tons of talk of dogears and what underwear and what to do with your bulge when reading on here…. But truth be told you simply get used to being a shower and it becomes a natural part of your body. After 8 months or so I simply forgot that I had dogears as they were not uncomfortable at all. But they are still there if I go digging around with a finger. A few pumps and they are gone. The bulge is still there but after a year you rarely think about it. It’s just the new you. So MANY issues we talk about on FT resolve themselves mostly because we get used to it and it becomes normal. Time is the biggest healer of most issues we encounter with an implant when properly sized and don’t have any unforeseen circumstances with the surgery.
59 years old ED started mid 40s pills failed after 10 years. Injections works but diminishing results with pain. Implanted 5-22 Baylor,Scott,and White Dallas.Dr Michael Wierschem, infrapubic Coloplast 20cm and 1cm RTE. Going strong and loving it!

Thanks for your response. Would you say that your implant has softened since the surgery as well? Having a firm rigid penis is definitely something I want to get away from, hence why I'm considering the ams over coloplast.
