First, I want to say that this has been a great resource for me. Thank you.
Trying to figure out whether to go through with this, because I can still get erections with Cialis/Viagra about half the time. But about half of these are either barely capable of penetration, or don't last very long. I have zero interest in what seems to be the next step -- injections.

I think the psychological benefits would be huge for me. I have always been self conscious about my under-endowment (think turtle head sometimes) when flaccid. Not exactly crazy about my erect size either -- 5''. I understand I can't expect an increase in react size, but I'm intrigued by an increase in flaccid size as result of the chambers not shriveling up. Am I crazy to have this even be a consideration?

Of course the performance anxiety and frequent failures do nothing good for my psyche, either. And then there's that desire to be able to give my wife what she says she doesn't need (hard to believe) -- a tool to enjoy for as long as she pleases.

Sorry for the rambling. I'd appreciate any feedback, especially from any guys who came out on the short end of the endowment lottery. And specifically, is there and special downside/risk/complication or limitation when dealing with a turtle head?

I have been all over the web, and through a lot of this site -- info overload. So any first hand advice or comments would be appreciated.

I am also among the ranks of the less well endowed, and after years (15 maybe?) of ED and a course of radiation for PC I ended up losing a great deal of length and acquired the turtle look like you. My LGX certainly brought the turtle out of his shell, not a huge amount but I no longer have to dig the poor guy out to urinate or to wash. My inflated length is nothing to write home about, but it is just adequate for sex and is of course hard and erect. I am 15 months post surgery and I have experienced no particular harms from having had a hidden penis prior to surgery.

My advice, if the pills are working sometimes and you still have a good 5 inches (I am envious, really!) consider getting the implant much sooner than later. The longer you wait with a dead dick the shorter it gets and you don't get it back. Mostly the surgery does reduce the length although many claim to regain their total before surgery length with regular inflating over time. Using a vacuum pump protocol religiously before surgery seems to help maintain post surgical length. But my main advice is don't sit around for years pondering the decision watching willy shrink before your eyes.

Hope this helps.

Thanks Watsup. May I pm you with some specific questions? Bob

Turtling can be "fixed" by an implant (a friend told me this and I believe him). (I cannot find an emoji for this, sorry.)
