Seeking a Permanent Solution for Venous Leak
Posted: Thu Jan 16, 2025 7:49 am
I am a 28-year-old man. During the first year of my marriage, I noticed issues with maintaining an erection and sought medical help, where I was diagnosed with a venous leak. Viagra was highly effective in addressing the problem, providing me with a strong, long-lasting erection. Occasionally, I used cheaper alternatives, which also gave good results. However, my wife had a different perspective. She believed that relying on Viagra wasn’t a sustainable solution and feared that it would eventually stop working, which led to the end of marriage.
Since then, I’ve been searching for a permanent solution to the venous leak and came across the idea of erectile implants. Unfortunately, in my country, only a small number of doctors perform this procedure, and their success rates don't seem promising. Over the course of a year, I reached out to a few patients through Facebook groups to gather information and understand their experiences. I discovered that a significant number of patients expressed dissatisfaction with their implants.
One individual I spoke with experienced an infection in his implant, requiring a replacement stent after several months, but he was still not fully satisfied. Another patient told me that his implant broke inside his penis in less than two years, noting that he had opted for a cheaper, second-class implant. Overall, I found that satisfaction rates for the procedure in my country don’t exceed 65% at best.
Given my situation, would you advise undergoing this operation despite the risks? If you were in my position, would you proceed with the surgery? Also, please note that English is not my native language, so I apologize if the text is not perfectly written.
