Length

[ThePlumber1964]

Most guys on here met their wives when they didn't have ED... and then for the most part their wives stuck around through the whole pills/injections/implants process. I keep struggling thinking it would be incredibly hard to meet a women who would be ok with me taking pills just to have sex ... being only 27 years old. They might see me as unfit as a potential long term partner. ED takes a huge toll us not only physically but psychologically as well... and in terms of my psychological well being ... i think an implant would help me much more than pills... because I would feel more potent ...knowing I will never fail. But perhaps I can find a women who will accept me taking pills. I think the hardest decision with all of this is actually making that decision... and without a partner to ask for advice.. it's difficult.

I can only imagine... I tend to agree with you rationale.

I understand where you are coming from. There are plenty of single guys who made the decision while single. In the end, if you decide to get implanted it’s for you. It’s your cock.

Don't be so quick to condemn pills or injections. I was starting to feel ED at your age, and freshly divorced. I have been single since then, so have lots of experience working the ED with single women. Viagra came out 10 years after divorce and I was elated! With experience, I got the timing right so she didn't know. If asked afterwards about being flush, I said "you really got my blood pumping" If the relationship continued, I told about the pills on the third or fourth encounter. By that time she was well aware that I knew what I was doing in bed. NOT ONCE did a woman say they were not interested because I needed pills. Pills lost their effectiveness gradually over the years. Two years ago I was approached at a bar and TOLD we were going to my house. Pills absolutely FAILED and the embarrassment was awful. That led to a Doppler test and at the same time found I had PC. Now without a prostate and years of ED, injections are the only thing that works. I wish I had tried injections 15 years ago! Back to your situation... It's easy to pop a pill and work your girl. If pills work, try not to be so self conscious about telling a partner. If she is interested in YOU, she won't care about a pill. If the pill bothers her, then she's not the right one and you should keep looking. And if you find that special girl, you could experiment with injections. Injections are MUCH better than pills IMHO, when you have an understanding partner. Injections work wonderfully for me, but it doesn't fit my lifestyle. I love to travel and I can't tote an ice chest with trimix while backpacking around the world. If I had a solid partner, I would NOT get the implant. But after 30 years of being single, nobody in sight, retirement 3 years out, and plans for backpacking the world, now is the time for an implant. It was not a tough decision. You are young and have many years to find that long term partner. If you find that special girl, the pills or injections won't matter. It's a big decision, hope this helps.

Vince , has ED played any role in you still being single? Or have you just not met the right women.

I have pondered that question extensively in the three months since finding out about implants. Honestly, I'm still trying to sort it out. I believe it has, but I'm having a hard time accepting it. My internal rationale on prospecting women has been that I wanted to find a "best friend" first and develop a solid foundational friendship from which we can grow a long time partnership. That sounds great in a personals ad, right? I wonder if I adopted that attitude because I was worried the ED would ruin it if we tried sex too soon. I don't know. I am a bit pissed that I didn't find out about implants 15 years ago. I think it would have been different and based on that statement, I can only conclude the answer to your question is YES. The real test will be IF the implant changes the way I approach dating and relationships. Won't know that for a few months. Then again, I may go back to my old ways for fear of telling someone about the implant. Jeez!

I think it will definitely change the way you approach women... knowing that all you gotta do is pump a few times and you can have a hard dick.. it sounds like a no brainer. You can keep it a secret for the first few times until you feel you have enough trust to tell the women .. by that time you would probably have fuked her better than any man she's ever been with and she wouldn't care whether you had an implant or not. That's at lest how I see it. Obviously there the compontent of not being able to naturally achieve an erection...but I rather have a hard dick than a limp unreliable one .. and I think most women would too.

If you don't think your partner will accept you because of this "flaw", accept that EVERYONE has flaws

and women, especially, are helpful to those they like. My philosphy on relationships is that any partner

who does not like you first and able to accept you WITH your flaws is not worth having.

I posted in late 2016 that I was impotent and seeking a woman to help me through my surgery. A woman

who would accompany me on this journey. I received a couple dozen messages. Nearly all of the

respondents were kind and willing to help, even if only by moral support and sharing what they knew.

This speaks well of women in general.

A significant number of the respondents were willing to consider helping me with the sexual

experimentation, both before and after the operation.

Here is an outline of my post on "PlentyOfFish as username "Lost0Sheep".


You should be able to draw a conclusion about whether to "hide" your implant/injections/pills from your

partner.

As an addendum to my prior post, here is an outline of my PoF (Plenty of Fish) ad

Express sincerity and that I seek help of a sexual nature and make it humble and polite and deflect the prurient.

Admit to impotence with a little bit of backstory and invite questions, meeting and potentially the sexual experimentation pre-and post-implant.

Pledge care for her well-being. and that it is not just sex, but restoration of self and friendship is also included.

I ended the post with this:

For this to work best, you should be
1) willing to commit to this (kind of like an experiment).
2) enthusiastic about helping a fellow human being - a bit of adventurousness or curiosity would help here,
3) non-judgemental and
4) hopefully, not shy about discussing sexual functions (perhaps with my medical providers as well as with me)

What happens with our relationship after that is open to our desires.

Thank you for reading. And since you have read this far, thank you especially for not shutting me down off-hand.

I recently (a month ago) had an inguinal hernia repair. After th operation, my dick decided to turtle up into my abdomen. I was not prepared to accept this, so, as soon as the tenderness subsided, I kept pulling that dick out of its hiding place. Another week later, I started jacking off every day - at least once - with loyts of gentle massage and gentle stretching.

The stimulation of the genital tissues and the jacking off will encourage T production and so the virtuous circle begins.

It seems to be working. You have to use it or lose it. There is no way I will killingly let that happen while I am still alive.

Hey guys I know this question has been asked a million times. Why do a lot of guys experience length loss after surgery??? It doesn't make sense to me at all. Are the cylinders not expandable enough in comparison to our natural erection chambers ? Even guys who have gone to the top surgeons have experienced some length loss. depending on the quality of my erection and gland swelling.. I am 6 to 6.5 inches.... i would hate to lose any length... I know I gotta sacrifice some length most likely but I would hate it. Also I want a titan because it' gets stiffer and I wouldn't mind having a larger flaccid. But I know the titan does not expand in length like the LGX. I know at the end of the day what matters is having a functioning dick... but I can't imagine losing a couple of inches and ending up with a 4 inch dick. No offense to the smaller guys out there. This is especially important to me as I am single.

I didn't loose any. I was worried about it too. The day I was activated, I stopped off on the way home to get a ruler at a Riteaid and went into the bathroom. It only got up to about 4.5 inches. I was disappointed as I was 6 inches before. But it stretched out over time. I would say that after about 6 or 8 weeks, I was back to original size. I do think we worry about it too much. The key is to find a good doctor. Good luck.

Much written about this.
At 63 I am very happy to be a little over 7” erect and very girthy. I was worried immediately after my surgery, but come on...it’s not a penis enlarging procedure it’s a reliability fix.
I think most guys end up with the same length they were before the operation, ie the limp stretch test.....it just takes a while for everything to settle in.
I have ended up about 3/4 inch longer than I was straight after surgery, but girth is the big winner.
Perhaps it’s the Titan combined with cycling and usage.

Hello well I had my surgery Jan 30th AMS 700 and I must say girth and size are not what I thought which sucks. I am much thinner and smaller in length over time does this improve???
