Hey thanks guys, this has been a very helpful discussion thread (and do keep comments coming).
Here are a few of my comments and reactions:
(1) REGARDING painful sex in your woman
This is driven in large part by if your woman wants to do something about it. It is very reasonable to ask her to go to gynecologist for treatment of "atrophic vaginitis" or to ask her to go to gynecologist for "vagina rejuvenation", since after all, you did something similar by getting an implant. The rejuvenation methods (estrogen cream/estrogen/kegels/mona lisa laser) do indeed work; and my woman now gets nicely lubed naturally after all those maneuvers (though the mona lisa was the key, and it literally took twelve months)
(2) REGARDING increasing your woman's libido
Yes, there are things that work, but she needs to have the desire to ask her gynecologist for prescriptions. Likely, the entry to all this is to get her to go to gynecologist for above described vagina rejuvenation. Once that door is open, maybe she can ask her doc if there is something that can improve libido. Many women (including my wife) take testostorone (low dose). As an aside, there is indeed a libido enhancing injection that a woman can take 30 minutes before sex...it is called Vyleesi , bnut my woman refuses to go that far.
Wow, what a concept, an injectable instantly horny freaky woman--I have no idea if this indeed works (ie, no field test experience by me and my woman)
(3) REGARDING getting the implant for your own self esteem
So, if your woman hates sex, I completely understand the comments some of you have made regarding "heck, you get the implant for you and your own self esteem". For a man, just knowing that he is sexually cured and fully capable can be a wonderful thing, possibly enough for a satisfying life. The implant makes for wonderful self esteem, even if you are not using it. I frequently think about a quote from LMCatman who stated:
Knowing I can f..k her is life changing, will she let me do it is a whole other thing....by LMCATMAN (franktalk)
"
This knowledge that you are sexually complete, and actually super capable, is such a mood changer.
(4) regarding glans harness solutions
Yes, the four options are: cock ring/urethra trimix gel/muse urethra pellets/viagra pills
My experience is that although the cock ring works, it is noticeable to the women and maybe a sign and flag of my neuroticism (does a bionic man really need that—-really?). Trimix gel into the urethra helps me a bunch, but the women can taste it during non condom blow job. Muse pellet into the urethra: I had a hard time finding this on the market, although it can be prescribed, my pharmacist could not find a supplier (and some franktalk members say it stings anyway). Finally, I did try viagra, that helps some, nut my ED is so bad that the effect was minimal, and I hated the headaches and the need to "plan for sex". Also, stay away from meds that make ED worse (eg, propecia (which really messed me up) and amphetamines such as diet pills or adderal.
Regarding my bionic brother SMETRO
Smetro and I are true bionic brothers since we were implanted on the same day three years ago and since we have the same implant model. SMETRO, thank you so much for sharing your journey with us all, I love all your comments and philopsophy. (especially when you wrote to me that I should "bang like the Tyro I know you are")
The shared advice on how to live life here on franktalk is super helpful, and to all you guys I thank you for making this such a great support group.
