Very Natural Hang
Very Natural Hang
Before my revision constant rubbing was a real problem. Now I squeeze and push down really hard until all of the fluid is out and I have a very comfortable natural hang. Having the pump deep in my scrotum has made all the difference in the world. Very nice! It feels natural when I walk sit stand or squat.

Same for me.

Re: Very Natural Hang
Each of us (I suppose) develops our own technique for getting "the last drop" squeezed back into the reservoir (or not, depending if we like to stay partially inflated as a default).
Personally, I deflate absolutely fully sometimes (depending on clothing or what activities I plan), inflate to a "soft fullness" depending on my mood, leave myself at a "full flaccid or "soft erection" if contemplating getting "frisky" with my girl (she can get the hint by looking at me or feeling me when we hug).
One of the benefits of being implanted is the ability to deliberately choose one's condition for clothing accommodation, for comfort or for communication.

Re: Very Natural Hang
I deflate fully, but it never holds. The surgeon called it "spontaneous filling" when I discussed it with him at the last followup. He said they would replace the whole thing if I wanted, but if it wasn't a big deal to me, no harm no foul. I found that within a few hours, it fills to a certain point, but no further on its own. That point is not uncomfortable in clothes, and in fact I like the feeling. While I have no plans to go to a nudist club or beach, I have enjoyed just the confidence of knowing that if I would be visible to anyone for any reason, it isn't playing turtle, I'm hanging there with a very natural appearance, more so than ever before my surgery.
Surgery at VA July 2017 after many years struggling with pills, shots, pump, etc. Should've done it way sooner! October 2020: VA just replaced the first one with another due to stuck valve...AMS 700 LGX.

Here is how you stop that... deflate fully and then give it a quick pump, just until it clicks... that closes the valve and prepares it for filling but if you don't squeeze it, it won't fill.

The two different manufacturers have different valve mechanisms and (I believe) both have different valve mechanisms which operate in different manners. "Spontaneous Filling" or "Auto-Inflation" is preventable in most cases.
Tell us which maker and model you have and those of us who have that particular combination may have specific direction that will give you the maximum amount of control over your"self". See my earlier post (number 3 in this thread) for the options I described. It is edifying (and a lot of fun) to have that much control over an appendage that for most of my life was fairly disobedient (erecting itself when I didn't want and collapsing unexpectedly at "inconvenient" times).

Re: Very Natural Hang
Larry.. You have a LGX and I have a Titan. Does this trick work on the Titan?
My problem. I can depress the deflate button and get a minimal deflation. If squeeze hard and long I can my bend my penis somewhat. But the cylinders will fill back at least to the point that I cannot bend. I think the backfilling is exacerbated by an encapsulated reservoir. It seems counter intuitive to me that I should reverse the pump value to allow for inflation so that I can prevent inflation by back fill. HOWEVER I am going to try this out. If this works I "owe" you. Big problem.

I have a Titan and it works with it.
LGX 21cm .Milam 01/13/16. Horror; both service and surgical outcome. hated infrapubic installation. Kramer revision 03/01/17. 22cm Titan +1.5cm extender. Those who think their opinion is the only one that matters are a danger to themselves and others.

Gee, I'm not sure but, I would think so... here's why... When I squeeze my pump quickly and I feel it click, it tells the implant "hey... it's time to transfer the saline from the reservoir to the cylinders", instead of from the cylinders to the reservoir. Without doing this, there is really nothing from stopping it from sloshing back and forth.

Re: Very Natural Hang
Sorry I haven't been on here for a few weeks, but to answer the question asked of me above, I have an AMS 700 MS in me. As far as preventing spontaneous filling, I tried the technique mentioned by Larry10625, so far a couple of times, and it hasn't really worked for me, but I plan to try a bit more. I appreciate the advice too gentlemen!
