I am getting surgery soon. Can you get back most of your length/girth through cycling and how many months does it take if that is even possible. Thank you.

Here is what’s going to happen. There may be slight variations due to your specific surgeon’s technique & post surgical protocols.

You’re going into surgery. They stick a syringe containing whatever anesthetic they’re using into your iv bag and about 8 seconds later you’re out.

You wake up in recovery and they tell you all went well. They give you a card telling you what kind of implant you have, what size, how many RTEs.

Your dick is encased in bandages. You may or may not have a catheter. You most likely will have a surgical drain. You’ll go home in a few hours with the drain still in. At this point you’re groggy from anesthesia and dick size is low on your priority list.

The surgeon has probably left you partially inflated. That hard, stubby thing is your dick. Or what used to be your dick. Going to piss is entertaining to say the least.

You’ll probably lose the drain on day 3 or so. By then the bruising is pretty vivid. I looked like they had hauled me out to parking lot and taken turns running over my crotch with a large SUV. You’re going to be disappointed in size at this point. Very. You might think “WTF have I let them do to me?”

Some surgeons may tell you to start pumping this early. Others may wait until 3 or even 6 weeks. Either way, you will notice a size increase during this time frame. Actually, you’re not getting bigger….but the swelling is going away. Some remnant swelling is possible up to 6 months later although most of it has gone away by 3 months. As my swelling dissipated, I went from 2” shorter than my start point to about an inch shy of my original length.

Memory is tricky. Thus is 4 1/2 years ago and I didn’t keep a journal or diary. I do remember that the length came back slowly but surely. I still got a lot of length back between month 6 & month 12. After a year, any gains are slight. Then again, you would expect them to be because after a year. I was less than 1/8” shorter than my pre-surgery size.

A lot of variables drive the results you may experience. Still, I think it is prudent to plan for it to take a year before you have your original dick back. Or as close to it as you’re gonna get.

Im at 4 months post implant and am within 1/8" of my preimplant size.

i am at 5 months and gone from 4 inches to just over 5 inches but i was 7 at the start with trimix so hoping for bigger and better in the near future

I was 1-1/2” short immediately after surgery it came back so gradually it’s hard to notice any gains by 6 months I was 3/4” back by 10-12 months it was all back plus a little xtra girth. It’s all been completely worth it and would do it again tomorrow if it fails so go for it keep your mind positive and hang in there. Time heals all things after IPP.

Pre implant due to severe ED I was 1.5 to 2 inches over 3 years. When I woke from surgery I was so disappointed. I didn't measure then. After much cycling it grew and today I'm at 6L and 6G. I never thought that i'd see the growth progress that I did have. Very happy with my results.

As you can see the answer is all over the place. That is because of how different doctors are in how this surgery is done and how different we men are. Then add the differences of the devices and it is no wonder. Another thing in the mix is what we call our original size. Some men are born with a leak and most likely never had a full on erection. And then are you calling you just preop erection size as original.

I will start with me in that I measured when I was healthy and youthful, and everything worked very well. Back then with large, engorged glans and just before ejaculation I could hit 7". With my implant and aggressive cycling the closest I managed to that was 6.5" at just under 2 years. I no longer do aggressive every day cycling and the length has fallen back some. My size prior to surgery was far less with anything other than a VED. VED size was greater than my youthful size.

I am only 14 months out but i haven’t noticed much growth after the 1 year mark.

Daily cycling and VEDs then a few months in Perito's THE exercise and some stretching, etc...took me about 11/12 months.

I didn't start anything for 35 days after impant, though. Other earlier starts are faster, I hear, but depends on surgeons and your device

I'm back to my original length and width after cycling 3 times a day for 6 months and then cycling once a day for 6 months. I used a vacuum pump from month 6 to 12 to aid in my progress. I still cycle with a vacuum pump 2-3 times a week and I'm at month 14. I'm very happy with my implant results.
