I cycle my devise like a Mad man every day and night. Right after suregery I was 5 1/4 inches. This morning I was 6 7/8. It works so guys worry about their size KEEP on pumping! I was implanted on Oct 14th 2015 with the AMS 700 lgx.

Any Titian implanters have similar experience?? Growth from surgery compared to several months later.... mine was installed Dec 7th.... Know my doctor said he over overfilled 30% to allow max size...

After having 10 implants (Titans / AMS) I assure you that most (if not all) of this is due to post surgical swelling of the pubic tissue has reduced to expose more of your equipment. Actual expansion of the cylinders is much more time consuming and can take 1-2 years to see the final result.

Yes, aggressive cycling does increase the speed at which you will see results, and yes the Titan will exhibit the same behavior.

The Titan doesn't actually increase in length but can gain MASSIVE girth if you are aggressive. The LGX has the potential of gaining both length & girth

Regarding the LGX length expanding potential:
I think this is a misconception. I am by no means an expert, but I've been reading a bit and I discussed this issue a lot with Dr. Eid, and I am normally quite good at adding one and one together.

When a surgeon sizes an implant patient he looks at the current erect length, whether it is an injection induced erection or an estimation by tbe stretch test.
If he the concludes the patient needs a 20 cm implant, he will choose either a 20 cm Titan or AMS CX, or he will choose a 16-17 cm LGX since the LGX expands 20 cm when inflated. If he was to choose a 20 cm LGX, that patient would be in big trouble since his implant basically couldn't inflate as there was no room for it to expand.
The LGX should rather be seen as it has the feature of retracting in the flaccid state.
This means that in practice a CX or Titan adds more stretch on the penile tissue length wise than an LGX, since they are same length when inflated but longer (and still do some stretching) when deflated.

Good theory but wrong. The Titan and LGX are measured and installed the same. Expansion can't be measured nor depended on. The Titan implantee and the LGX implantee receive the same length implants based on initial measurements.

The determining factor on expansion is your body's own ability to expand. The LGX doesn't force non-expanding tissues to expand, it only works where the natural tissue allows this to happen. Many people are lucky enough for this to occur, but it cannot be calculated or defended upon at time of implant.

Most good surgeons will tell you there is no difference between the final size to prevent anticipation of expansion, and prevent disappointment if it doesn't happen.

What many implanties don't realize is this... If you have an implant for a few years, and use it regularly at its fullest inflation pressure, you will have expanded it at least in girth. If that implant needs to be replaced, you should get a slightly larger model as a replacement. This happend to me 3 times with the Titan, however it was girth, not length.

I have spoken directly with Coloplast and AMS regarding just this issue. The LGX can and does expand in some cases.

Oh, and it's not a case of the LGX not being able to inflate fully if the same size implant is used. It's not an oversized mplant. The material itself stretches over time to fill any added cavity size caused by tissue expansion. If the tissue doesn't expand or give in to the pressures, the implant doesn't expand.

Just like other things mechanical, with a lot of use it can loosen up. The body does this too at times. The LGX implant takes advantage of this process and stretches to encourage and accommodate this process.
