Those who really want to work on the glans hardness, the options are:
1) trimix gel
Trimix gel was prescribed to me by my local urologist as an attenpt to improve glans firmness during sex (my wife likes the glans hardness since she has learned that glans is now the only indicator of my natural state of being turned on by her). Interesting, when I use trimix gel, I actually get a natural erection in the glans and in the cavernosum !!! It was fun to have a natural erection on top of my cylinders. Because of my severe ED, the firmness of the erection was not great, and I would likely barely be able to penetrate with the erection. For the women, the experience would be aht they might decribe as a "soft fuck" whereby the man can get in, but the penis never really gets super hard. So, for my wife, who has experienced the joys of my implant, would never put up with that sort of semi-chub erection, and I of course use the pumped up cyliders when having sex. All that being said, though, it was neat to have a natural erection again thanks to the trimix (though, as stated already, the erection is not good enough to be prodigious in bed). That being said, I do use the trimix on occasion when I want my glans to be big during sex, and the best part is that when my glans swells up at orgasm time, the swell is even bigger with the trimix on board. oreover, I do notice natural (though weak) erections happening since the trimix has kick started things a little.
By the way, you all should know that Propecia (finestride) has really messed up any remaining erection capability I had. Having the implant, I figured that I had nothing to lose by taking propecia for hair loss. WRONG, propecia led me to lose any glans erections and decreased my semen volume. The good news is that after stopping propecia and using trimix gel, I am back to where I was 6 months later.
2) cock ring
I have written about this in the past, it helps the glans erection a bunch, but I think the ring looks odd, and women might be a little judgemental since you "need help to keep it up", so I do not use the ring since I do not need it, really (ie, my glans, though rather limited, is good enough)
3) viagra -
I tried this. It was not a significant improvement. And I can't stand the headaches, or in the case of cialis, the backaches. Also, the need to time things is not what being a bionic is all about.
So, in my experience, it is best to "travel light" and discard the trimix gel, discard the cock ring, and discard the viagra. A bionic is plenty good enough to satisfy a women, and fixating on the soft glans is a neurotic activity that is not worth the effort---in my opinion
Great information as always Tangerine.
It sounds with trimix gel..you have best of both worlds.
Is it cumbersome to carry the gel..does it require to be kept cold ?
Thanks
