Came across a study of the column load testing and cantilever testing of penile implants.
Does anyone know what is the average rigidity/force required for vaginal penetrative sex?
Those with implants..what has been your experience..in regard to penetrative strength before and after implants?
Thanks
That study was done to show the Titans ability to have a better erection angle over the LGX. The CX was not included in that study. Clearly a Coloplast backed study. That is different that the level of rigidity for PIV sex. Many on this site including me point out that our LGX is harder than our healthy youthful erections. I can achieve a 3 o'clock erection that is harder than some women like. Other have posted that they inflate to less than 100% as that is so hard it is not comfortable for a partner. So 2 things here. 1 is the erection angle that the study was intended to show. And 2 your question on rigidity for sex.
The devices have different advantages. The LGX as the table in that study shows has the ability to expand more than the Titan. So if you have size loss that you want to work on restoring the LGX is best. It is also more comfortable and easier to conceal for men who don't want to walk around with a large package. And in some sizes the LGX is virtually equal in girth to the Titan. The Titan is stiffer and better for straightening curvature's and other deformities. And it you really must have a 1 o'clock erection then it is the best for that. As far as having a nice package to walk around with the Titan is that all the time. The LGX can be pumped to whet ever you want though so if you want you can do that also.
Before implant I could not have an erection that would work for PIV sex with pills or injections. A little plumping is all meds would produce.
