The main message sent here is, find a good doctor, consult and listen to him.


Most of us, we do not send messages, (to get a procedure or not to get a procedure) we try to understand and support you and try to resolve your doubts according to our varied experiences.

Just because you feel influenced does not mean that others try to influence you, as I said, we are only telling our experience, I don't think there are other interests.

Most of us, with nuances, have followed "the via crucis":

.- Scare us, because the penis begins to fail.
.- Hide it and try to solve them with magic, usually found on the internet, Vacuum pumps, rings, some with creams, etc.
.- Mental situation: From feeling distressed to becoming depressed.
.- Until one day we are "enlightened" and we go to a doctor
.- Normally the first thing the doctor tells you is, what you have is psychological, which is a hard blow. (For me the correct thing would be to do a Doppler echo, to rule out the physical, but I understand that it is expensive and they are guided by statistics)
.- Take Viagra or similar, raise the dose, raise it higher, although I know doctors who do it the other way around, they give you an initial 100 and then they go down until they see which is the lowest dose that works.
.- If the above does not work, they move on to the second line of attack, Some of us have a Doppler test at the same time we face the first injection and then they have the basis to know how to really act.
.- If there is no erection and something physical is detected on the venous side (venous leak), then some try radiological embolization (it didn't work for me)
.- If the problem is on the arterial side, that is, on the side of the incoming blood flow, it is easier for the injections to work and we begin with injection therapy and a mixture of drugs.
.- Now some are experimenting with shock waves (there are no definitive results yet)
.- At the end of this path is the option of a prosthesis, nuclear option, which will be chosen according to your particular conditions, such as: age, physical and health condition, finances, available treating doctor and your preferences.
.- New fears unlocked, size, everyone will know, girls will not like it, is it reversible?, pain, functioning, etc etc

After the operation another process begins

.- New fears.
.- Pain of various types and in various places.
.- Loss of dimensions (length and width)
.- Orgasms
.- Ejaculation
.- Some suffer from major problems, which require a longer and more complex process.
.- Learn to use what you have, enjoy it and be grateful for the new opportunity you have.


Surely it is a partial list, feel free to add, criticize, differ, support etc.

Be happy

Wow!! You pretty much wrapped up everything that’s ever been discussed and put it in a. Purple paragraphs! Definitely overs all the basics. Been asking, posting and reading here for years and pretty much everything and anything has been covered numerous times.

I realized that the final part of the list is missing.

The one that refers to the stories of satisfaction and enjoyment, after all the inflammation has disappeared and we begin to do the first miles of our repowered friend.

It could be: (although not for everyone)
Performance concerns disappear.
There is no pre-relationship anxiety. (Your fear of other things must be worked on).
Confidence goes through the roof, perhaps more than transforming us, we simply reinforce our self-esteem.
Know and recognize new satisfying sensations.
Seeing surprised faces (good surprise) on the sexual partner, which is amazing.
Feeling integrated, normalized and even forgetting that the bionic option is installed.
Recover or revive the relationship with your partner.

As I said, it is not an exhaustive list, if you want to add your sensations and emotions feel free

I just hope it is useful to someone

The ability to go from no erections at all to a guaranteed erection every time cannot be understated. Yes it is a journey to find the right answers for each individual, since we are all different by age, health, size, etc. I do find there is a pattern of a lot of men talking size loss, both from prior surgery prostrate is one example. I do thing it is over rated considering most of us implanted are in our mid 60's and older. Who are we impressing at this point in our lives. When I decided on an implant I took photos of him 25 years ago, showed it to the dr. he shook his head and said "that was then this is now". I have a mallabble which for the most part should require no revesions my whole life with luck. Although I go in next month for a revesion it is not the implant failing but rather and under sizing issue. It is a big step to do an implant and the fear is real for sure. The best thing I can suggest is to do your research before making a decision. Meaning research your dr. how many implants a year? does he lean toward one brand or type and why? The brand implant you get have your dr. compare side by side the choices you have. Too many dr's show you the one sample of what "they" want to use, the choice many times is steered away from you the patient. You are in control in this journey, always remember that and act accordingly.

This is so true! I did dozens of hours of research. I picked my Dr based on volume, type of implant he preferred and the way he installed it(infrapubic in my case) my Dr was the best fit for me! Choose your Dr wisely! Sad but my Dr quit doing implants a year ago so when I need a revision, I’ll be headed to Houston and use Dr Clavell!
