I got a little surprised yesterday when my doctor activated my Titan and cleared me for sex. I thought i was a few weeks out for that. Spent last night looking over old post to answer my question but could only find a few.

I can pump it up with no problem but sometimes it stops after about 5 pumps and gets hard as hell. Post say to deflate and start over or pull the pump down
I can deflate it with no problem but after i deflate, i pump it once to lock it and the implant auto deflates any way.

If anyone has any tips that I couldn't find in old post I would appreciate it.

I've heard that 'pump once to lock it' many times but it never really seemed to work in my case(s). Early after implant and revisions, I'd seemingly have no control over "back-filling". 4-5 months in, I have very few problems inflating or deflating and my deflated penis stays pretty much how I left it all day. And I never do the "pump once to lock"......

Hard to inflate? Me too....and I have arthritis in my right thumb and can't pump with that hand. I often seek help....))))

Good luck!

Well, apparently you have good help to get it pumped up. LOL

I try....))))

Not sure if this is helpful or not; at 6 months post-op I pump about 25 times to be ready for penetration, about 30 to get to pain level (cycling twice a day to maximise girth and a big 'perhaps'-length).

I have developed a technique to overcome the pressure required to squeeze the pump when it feels full.

I stand up and grip the pump with my right thumb and index finger from the right side and then duplicate this from the left side using my left thumb and index finger sitting over the right finger and thumb in the same 'pincer' grip .....basically using both hands doing the same action doubles up the amount of strength you can apply to the bulb.

This action may still be difficult in the first couple of months due to residual swelling in your ballsack but
you will overcome all these issues and revel in your new found erection power......no question!

Just keep playing with it twice a day as recommended by Coloplast, this will help get the maximum size we all want.

Can you get your pump to lock after you deflate it?

Yes, by giving the bulb one squeeze

But I only ever deflate right down sometimes at night,....... most of the time (rightly or wrongly) I keep it inflated to about 1/3 but I am not aware of any real re-inflation.
.............further out from post-op the more natural it all becomes
