is my penis gonna be same as far as erection length and girth?
does your penis still swell with blood after implant is installed like it would with a natural erection?
Is your ED due to arterial insufficiency (weak erections from the outset) or venous leak (stellar erections that don’t hold long enough)? Is your prior treatment based on pills or intra cavernosal injections?
If the malleable rods are sized correctly by a competent surgeon, your stretched penile length (SPL) now will exactly match your length after implantation.
With most malleable brands in the US market, the maximum diameter per cylinder is 13 mm. With inflatables, the maximum diameters are 18 mm for AMS and 23 mm for Coloplast. By design, a malleable does not expand and entirely fill the corpora like an inflatable does. Therefore, after implantation of the rods, if individuals continue to have decent blood flow on the smooth relaxed muscles of cavernosal tissues around the implanted rods, the perceived loss of girth is minimal. If not, girth loss is a possibility.
Some individuals plan for HA fillers to make up for the girth loss. It requires yearly touch-ups. Dr. Perito has a lot of videos on his YouTube channel, if you want to learn about penile girth enhancements.
When I get aroused and stimulate my penis or during intercourse, it still fills with blood like a natural erection and I love this feeling and experience.
I continue to take my daily Tadalafil for good blood flow. I also plan to get HA fillers after a few months as I want the best girth possible.
Every patient is different and every outcome is different. Surgeon selection is important. Good luck with your upcoming surgery!
