I am very happy to report that as of day 77, I am getting some size back. I noticed a difference when I started using a VED after pumping to the max just a week ago. I have gotten back 1/2" of length and 1/2" of girth. It's the girth that still has more to go, but it is a great development. I am now at 7-1/2" (19.5cm) length x 6-1/2" (16.5cm) girth, and back to 8" length pumped with a VED.

I put those numbers into the size calculator, and that is (in percentiles) 99.89% for length and >99.99% for girth. That comports with my experiences this past weekend with hundreds of naked (mostly erect) men, so my concern about looking and feeling much thinner than before is not so important.

So 10 weeks post surgery and you’re drawing a vacuum like that with little to no pain? If so that is encouraging as hell, cause prior to this surgery, VED did make the ole appendage look pretty good.

That looks like a very fancy pump. Are those pressure gauges on it? What kind is it and where did you get it?

The discomfort is not as great as I have after 30 minutes at a full implant pump. I pump up as much as I can for about 15 minutes first and then use the pump, increasing every 15 seconds or so, and then keeping it on as long as I can. Just a week ago when I started I could only get to the 3rd vacuum setting, and now I can go all the way.

I must have 5 or 6 pumps, and this one is by far the best because of the granularity of settings. It has an essential vacuum gauge as well as a timer.

What implant you have?

Of course you do! LOL. Thanks for the information, fellow traveler.

Does that pump indicate actual inches of vacuum or is it just escalating settings?

I use an oval cylinder with a hand pump that has a gauge, I go to about 7.5" of vacuum for 10 minutes on, 10 minutes off for an hour. I can go to 10" of vacuum or more, but I find that just results in an inflated foreskin donut (I'm uncut).

My penis doesn't get nearly as dark when pumping, sort of looks painful.

I looked at the Amazon link, is the cylinder only 7.5" long?

Pro tip: if you share your Amazon account with someone else, make sure you clear it out of your browsing history in case you have adult children that share your Prime account.

1380anthony,
I'm sorry that isn't in my signature line. I wish there were more characters! I have a 24+1 RTE AMS 700 CX. It's the only one my surgeon will use. I wish the cylinders were wider and that I had waited a month for the new pump, but I'm already really enjoying it.

Jage64,
It's a real gauge. You can see it go down as it leaks slightly, and then go up to the max vacuum for which it is set. It uses a different scale than is typically quoted. I found converters for mbar to inHg online.

My dick gets dark after about ten minutes. Sometimes I stop at ten minutes, release the vacuum for a few minutes and then do it another ten minutes. I don't really care if it hurts up to the point I can't stand it. It actually hurts far less than the pain I get from fucking when I am pumped to the max.

The inside of the cylinder is 8" x 2". I am pleased to say that I am smashing into the end again. I found what is essentially a spacer on Amazon. I have outgrown other pumps that have a plastic piece sticking out of the top section that reduces their effective length, and others that are too narrow.
