Being flagged at airports, anyone else gets the same?

The final frontier. Deciding when, if and how.

Interesting. The part that gets flagged for me is the reservoir. I wonder if its the liquid in it
I know its the reservoir because it flags one side of my body not exactly the penis area

Do you explain what type of implant?

I’ve flown many times and internationally twice and never yet been checked. My wife however gets pulled aside almost every time. If your ever checked once your automatically flagged I suppose. She has nothing to even set it off.
60yo.ED started mid 40s pills failed after 10 years. Injections works w diminishing results.

I wonder if everyone else gets this problem or if it's just me? It's quite annoying to be honest. As i fly quite often

Any workarounds? I was wondering if i inflate a bit before going through security maybe the reservoir would be smaller and not get flagged, or maybe it's not even the liquid at all but the metal valve.


Discovernew, I have TSA precheck and global, even though I have those, I still self identify that I have implants. I don’t tell them what type of implant unless they ask.
I have two total knee replacements along with my Bionic Dick.
They just direct me to the scanner and since I’ve already told them I have implants, I walk on through. Sometimes they will do an extra wand scan, but that is not very often, mostly at smaller airports.

Good luck brother,
