By the way, who are you getting your rigicon AX surgery with? Best of luck
Sorry, just saw this. You now know it was Dr Love in Melbourne, who fitted me with a Rigicon 10X, not the 10AX as I was expecting. He said that the 10X has greater axial rigidity than the 10AX, which is an important characteristic.
That's fine by me as I want to increase girth. I can live with the 14-14.5 cm length.
Which brings me to the question of BPL measurement. Pre-implant, I could push the ruler hard against my pubic bone to get a measurement, but now I have stuff in the way, such as what feels like the tubing where it exits the base of my dick and goes around to enter the scrotum. There's also the wound scar which is shrinking in thickness every day and will eventually disappear.
The upshot is that I can't get a proper BPL measurement and estimate that I'm actually longer by about 1 cm. A peno-scrotal procedure would have presumably not messed with the BPL and might have prevented my pump migration issue.
Time will tell.
Hey doggedly, what was your pump. Migration issue?
And what is your current size compared to pre op? (accounting for that extra cm you mentioned)
Yes, the pump got pulled up until only about 1 cm of tubing was left. Can't pull it down mow, although I keep trying.
I got an implant 5 months after the RP. During that 6 months, I used a VED and stretched.
So, before implant, I was 17 cm (6.7") NPL flaccid and 14.5 in a VED. Girth unknown.
Now BPL pumped 14 cm, but perhaps 0.5 cm more when wound thins down. Girth 11.5 cm (4.5") and 12.5 cm (5") with tadalafil or after VED.
Pre RP, girth was probably 14 cm (5.5") with tadalafil.
Cycling for 1 hour twice a day, hoping for more girth.
RALP with 75% nerve sparing 10/24.
Some tumescence from 5 weeks post op. Erection improved with pills, stalling @ 60%
Frisky with young wife again. Implanted Rigicon 10X 20 cm + 1 cm RTE mid April 25.
