So is size loss a thing or not for penile implants (AMS 700 CX)?

[Discovernew]

I hear conflicting things. I personally have the AMS 700 CX but I did get natural erections before the procedure. I'm about 2 weeks post-op and 50% inflated so hard to say whether I've lost size or not at this point. But if I have lost size, is it accurate to say that it will return to pre-op size after cycling for some time? Maybe even get bigger?>

My doctor is high volume (Dr. Loh-Doyle of USC) and I vaguely recall him telling me not to worry about size loss but my memory is a bit hazy.

I also read somewhere that I could lose size after each revision. Is this true?

I would say realistically you will get your pre-surgery size back with early cycling. I'm at 6 months and now back to my original size and maybe slightly bigger, 1 cm or so. I'm happy and going to try to avoid doing aggressive cycling to help preserve the implant longevity.

I think with someone like Dr. Loh Doyle who I really liked and does a lot of implants, he's going to size you the right way to maximize size. Just trust the process! it actually works

How much did you lose immediately after your surgery? and how long did it take to go back to your natural size? Are the tips of the cylinder reaching your mid-glans?

i would say I lost like 1/2 inch after surgery, so not much. but with cycling i've maybe gotten back maybe 1/4-1/2" beyond my original size and it seems to get a little better.
