Pump / Deflate / Then What?

I've finally been able to pump and deflate. But I seem to recall my doctor telling me to quickly pump one more time after deflating to keep the fluid from filling the tubes again. Is this true?

Which brand of implant do you have?

I've got a Titan Touch and I keep reading Titan users saying that you press the deflate button again to prevent saline from flowing back into the cylinders but that's never worked for me.

After I fully deflate my Touch, no matter how much I deflate it, saline will flow back into the cylinders to inflate them back to about 20% -- neither hard nor soft --to a chubby but bendable state.

Asked my doc about this and he said not to worry, that's just the way it is. So, I'm not worrying about it anymore.

I think the AMX pump automatically prevents self-inflation when the deflate button is pressed.
The first pump of the bulb, you'll feel a pop, which is the valve moving back to the inflate position.

That’s correct, regarding the AMS.
