Anyhow, good luck.
The instructions that come with each device are very specific to do the measurement. I doubt any surgeons skip that step. The operating reports are supposed to always record the measurements, any patient who wonders if their surgeon took the measurements has only to read it.
I venture the guess that the more likely cause of mis-sizing is the surgeon performing the measurement incorrectly, doing the math wrong or following an earlier prococol (now obsolete) that adjusted the physical measurement down to avoid pressure on the glans causing risk of erosion.

Re: 24 Titan
Well mike
The pain will subside and try to get some sleep. The whole pkg is swollen and hurt by surgery, like other surgeries, especially when the anesthesia wears off. You want to take the pills before it does wear out.
Take the pain pills as directed and have patience.
Have a pain free ride home. Good luck and safe trip. Welcome to the Bionic Brotherhood

Titan implanted by Dr Eid Due to Peyronies, Implant was the only option for me.
