Hi guys. I am three weeks away from implant surgery. I am very eager to be a functioning man again. That said, I am sure there must be an embarrassing or awkward moment here and there when you have an implant. I am curious what your experiences have been.

I am thinking of things like an annual exam with a new doctor, sex with a new partner, your buddies who see you nude at the gym or camping suddenly seeing you with a different looking dick, unwanted erections, difficulty concealing it in your pants, gym shorts, or swimwear, etc.

Thanks in advance for sharing your stories with me.

Be proud show that puppy off as your buddies will be jealous but also will never admit it as guys lie all the time about their dicks. Women will look just as we look at their breast. Enjoy the ride.

My primary care doctor knew that I had an implant put in because he needed to give me clearance (as did my cardiologist). Neither of them acted like it was strange. As far as my buddies seeing me nude at the gym or camping seeing a different looking dick, I think we (meaning I and they) are polite enough not to say anything about something that private. I never have an unwanted erection since I have to pump it up to get hard. I don't have difficulty concealing it in my pants (which are not super tight) or gym shorts (I wear a jock so everything stays inside out of view) or swimwear (I wear a loose swimsuit, not a Speedo).

In fact, my urologist -- who I think is really great -- when he inspected my incision after my prostatectomy in 2000, jokingly said (because of the scar going from my navel down to my dick), "You're not going to be able to wear Speedos" and he winked, and I responded with, "Oh man, I hate that! I love wearing Speedos at the beach." (My body is not built for Speedos, at least in the U.S. I have seen pictures of all kinds of men's bodies in Speedos in Europe, but that's a different culture.)

No doctor I've seen, and there have been quite a few, has done more than just note that my surgical history includes an implant. No remarks, questions or comments of any kind from any of them, and none of them ever made any kind of examination of it.

It was kinda strange walking into chickfila for lunch post op we the tent I got right now

Getting an MRI: had to fill out the proforma regarding pre-existing medical conditions of which I have none however, the lovely 20 something miss who checked my form looked up and I thought I detected a little smile after she noted that I had filled in the correct section with "Penile Implant"

I swim train 3 times a week and am rather pleased with how I am now a show-er rather than a grow-er in my Speedos, I can't say anyone actually notices,but it does tickle my little ego a bit knowing there is more in my front view now than there used to be!!

The MRI form I filled out asked if you have any of the following, and "penile implant" was on that list. I checked "yes," and they called me back into a private area (I had been in the lobby), where I showed them the card I carry in my wallet. They made a copy of the card and told me that it was not a problem.

Dirtman,
I have no fear and have never shied away from people seeing my penis, even now when it is retracted much of the time. I pose nude for artists so I am scrutinized and there is no hiding anything when I am on the model stand in the center of a studio space with up to 30 artists surrounding me from every side.

The point of my question does not come out of concern, but out of levity. I will certainly stand more proud after I get my implant and have a little more to be happy about.

Greg you modeling will be on hold for a while after implant

Yes Hugh, I am well aware I will have down time. I will be posing the last couple days prior to surgery but then have not accepted new requests until mid-November.
