Maintaining sensitivity: IPP's v MPP's

Postby Mark1974 » Thu Mar 20, 2025 7:29 am

I can't find good information on this topic, but perhaps I'm using the wrong search terms.

I don't mind having a small penis, but one thing that does worry me is losing a lot of sensitivity and ending up with anorgasmia 5 years on.

I've decided 100% to get an implant on 5/19 and I'm about 90% sure I want an MPP right from the beginning, but it's still a big decision.

I have a consult on Monday and it's the last one before the operation, so I want to go in there fully decided with the plan.

Also, it's not just about me, I think this discussion would be valuable to many users
Born 6/15/74. I have substantial venous leak with fairly severe hour-glassing, but no hard plaques. My urologist is sexual health expert Dr. Laurence Levine who performed a Doppler Ultrasound and diagnosed me with VL in 2020. Surgery scheduled 5/19/25

Hey Mark! Congrats on the decision. You're going to be in really great hands with Levine and his team. I can tell you with 100% confidence that I haven't lost any sensitivity and I haven't lost any ability to orgasm.

Some important context in my case is that I'm on Wellbutrin, which has really improved my life but has also made it somewhat more difficult for me to reach climax. This is actually a pretty rare side-effect of the drug. Wellbutrin doesn't produce sexual side effects at the same rate of other anti-depressants, like SSRIs — and some of those can even cause serious long-term ED.

Anyway, I mention Wellbutrin because even with a drug that makes it slightly more difficult for me to climax, I still don't have any problems even with my Genesis malleable. It's like normal!

I'm always around to chat. I know it's a huge decision fraught with lots of uncertainty, and of course you only have one penis. We're all here for you!

I think much of this subject is subject to the individual person ..health .. age ..prescription drugs ..diet ... surgeon ..too many variables to just get one clear answer I think .

Agree with easymoney on this subject. I doubt either an IPP or MPP will make any difference. If you have good sensitivity now it will return after you heal from the surgery. Way too many variables to pinpoint any loss or gain.

We also hear Trimix brothers talking about losing sensitivity. Every week, I see a new bump on the thread about Trimix and Anorgasmia. My hunch is that oversizing or a super-physiological, chemically induced erection might compress the nerves, depriving them of nutrients from blood flow (ischemia). With a relaxed state between erections, an IPP might be better in theory as it offers less compression on the dorsal nerves, provided the neurovascular bundle and its branches aren’t violated during the more invasive surgery itself. It’s a complicated topic. With a great surgeon like Dr. Levine, the odds are stacked in your favor.
