currently inject 30.my prescription is tri mix 30-3-50.guestin is this prescription strong or weak or medim.

I'd call it medium strong. It's far from a starter mix but there are stronger mixes. For example, Olympia Compounding Pharmacy offers their "Strong Tri-mix at Papaverine 30mg/ml - Phent. 3mg/ml - PGE-1 (alprostadil) 100mcg/ml. Then there are the Quad-mixes

No but I can try ? The doctor ordered for me a gel you put in tour urethra that engorges the gland so I’ll post how the effect goes?

I've have been using trimix for almost two years now. Good results with 10 unit dose. The problem I've experienced the last couple of months is difficulty in getting the syringe plunger to start moving. Seems like I'm applying more than enough pressure but sometimes it will not budge. Once it starts to flow it's fine, I can complete the shot. Maybe it's now quite in far enough? I use a standard 31G 8mm syringe.
Any thoughts?
thanks,

Ed

The needle is either in too far or not far enough. Sometimes it may be necessary to push too deep and then back it out a tad. I never force the plunger. If it doesn't go I adjust the needle placement until it does. If I force it when I have strong resistance I'm guaranteed to have a sore dick.

Looking for advise on Trimix and rings. Using Trimix Double Strength (PPP 11.8mcg/18/mg/0.6mg) at 0.45ml (Using an Autoinjecter which takes away needle fear and experience some discomfort like pressure for while after, but tolerable) Results are hit or miss, but generally not strong enough for penetration and I’m planning to try adding a ring. Anyone have experience with this combo with decent results? What type of ring? Did you positioned before or after injection? Was the ring placed just over the base of the shaft, or also around the scrotum? Lastly, anyone use a VED in conjunction with injections or is that dangerous? I’m in my early 80’s but not about to give up.

Welcome to the forum.

You can find plenty of older threads and posts that address your concerns if you look through older threads, especially in the injections sub-forum.

I do use rings with injections. I do use a ring around my shaft behind the boys. It does give my erection a boost. I also use one around the boys but that's just for entertainment and because the wife likes it. It's not for erection enhancement. I put the ring(s) on pretty quickly after injecting. If I wait too long it just gets more difficult. Stretch the ring over the boys and then bend the dick and push it through.

Some manscaping is in order if you don't already do it. Silicone rings, the type I use, don't get along well with hair. A discovery you will also make if you don't do some mowing. I don't shave it all as I don't want to look pre-pubescent. Just the shaft and boys and just a trim elsewhere.

As for rings I use the Perfect Fit Xact-Fit Play Zone Cock Ring Kit I source for Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Perfect-Fit-Rings-Sturdy-Storage/dp/B01J84E5OK
Those rings work well for me but it's a personal thing as there are many options and many styles and construction materials. You'll have to experiment to find which options(s) work best for you. Expect some rejects. Some guys even use Velcro cable organizers and some even use rubber bands.

You didn't ask but I'm not a fan of the auto injectors. I like having more control and I don't find the process painful enough to worry about. I pretty much never have a misfire.

Some guys do use a VED either before or after injecting. I don't. If I use one after injecting I get a hematoma at the injection site. Proceed carefully.

Good evening... First post. Thank you to all of the folks behind the scenes and the frequent posters. This forum has helped making the "leap" to injections and, then, navigating the process. As with many others on here, I am fortunate enough not to have surgically caused ED or suffered any trauma (thus, no interaction with a urologist until after starting Trimix - that's another story with a happy result); but found the need of one or other of the various blue, yellow ... pills. Over the years, those became ineffective - unless taken in larger doses which had the usual nasty side effects of back pain, headaches, etc. I, as most if not every man on this board, was not happy with that trade off and began to look for options. I happened upon a frank talk thread, and a year later am on board - pun intended -:)

I have never been a fan of needles and, while I had managed to give subQ insulin injections to a diabetic cat and subQ fluids to another much loved cat, the thought of sticking a needle in my cock was alarming when I first encountered the idea. Yes, here I am early 70s and never knew about Trimix... Fortunately, I happened upon a compassionate local doc who'd set up an ED clinic, as I was researching Trimix .... he was just what I needed at the time, checked blood flow, and then showed me the injection process with results that have been enjoyed by both my wife of 40+ years and myself.

Over the past year, frank talk has been an invaluable resource as I continue to make the journey.

I use an auto-injector, which has overcome any concerns with sticking a needle in anything, let alone my cock. Over the past year I've experienced a couple of complete misses, like most and several where I didn't get dosage right for the time. But, have to say that I'm ecstatic with being able to grow my cock on demand like I could even a couple of decades ago. Admittedly, I had never heard the term 'grower' or 'shower' until I began this journey, but now know that I am in the former category along with being uncut. I have recently discovered rings - thanks, in large part to this forum - and have to add that those add a certain je ne sais quoi....

I have read many posts about progressively higher dosages and/or formula changes. Should I be concerned about that since I have 'progressed' from a .30ml 10/30/1 mix for an 8/10 to a 45-48ml of the 10/30/1 for a solid one ... my uro changed the mix to 20/30/2, and a 28-30ml seems to be consistently solid? Don't want to damage my long term usage of Trimix ....

After 10 years of cialis and Viagra ( ive noticed seems to be most people’s term of use.) my erections failed to get as ridged and began to fail about mid sex most times. I increased dosage to no avail. Scheduled appointment with urologist for 12/20. First thing Dr explained is that in most cases when C and V begin to fail it’s usually not that you’ve built a tolerance and need more, but most likely that the problem that exist has gotten to the point that C and V don’t have enough ability to overcome your issues. In my case he assumed VL. As I expected he suggested injection and asked if I had any experience with it . Told him my Brother had been using it and had explained the process. In short he wrote and called in a regular strength tri-mix to a local pharmacy that compounds it. Ask if I wanted I could pick up script and come in for a trial first shot in the office. I had done my home work on FT and felt confident enough to try on my own. Later that evening I did the prep and had my wife assist and let me tell you it was a lot nerve wracking the first time to stick a needle no matter how small in your dick! I was fortunate and seemed to hit the sweet spot the first try and was very surprised at how little it hurt! I used a 31g 5/16 in needle which I still use. I found it is very important to be in a well lighted room and always wear your glasses so as to see the smallest of vanes, and most time am able to avoid. I use the 9-10 and 2-3 spots and vary the location up and down the shaft. Also it is good to get a little stretch and if possible a little chub so as to have a little better target. I identify the spot I want to hit and slowly insert needle w a slow steady motion, going all the way in w the 5-16 needle. As prescribed I always use an alcohol wipe and have found it’s best to let the alcohol evaporate before insertion as it will cause a mild sting if done while still wet with alcohol.The only pain is when the needle first breaks the skin, then it requires a bit of pressure as it breaks thru the cavernoso. I personally don’t draw back as w the 5/16 needle I’ve never gone in too far. Only once while using a 1/2 in needle I went thru into the ureathra and had a misfire.as noted many times on this sight always start with a very small dose and build your way up. Don’t set your hopes too high for the first couple injections as it takes a little practice to be comfortable and smooth,and don’t worry about the pain,after just a few shots you won’t even flinch. I always get an engorgment in the side of the injection which causes an immediate curve but just a small amount of stretching and rubbing will even it out very quickly. Most times it takes about 12-15 min to reach a full erection. I’ve enjoyed using injection as it’s 99% effective for me and I get a great hardon which is there no matter what happens over the next 1-3 hours all according to how much dosage I use. It does feel as good as it did when I was young. I do notice a bit of an oval feel as the rest of the penis isn’t engorged as with a natural erection. I’ve experimented with using cialis and it does seem to make my erection more round and fuller. Hope my note isn’t too boring or to long. Any questions feel free to inbox me anytime

some good info here, thanks! really want to take the plunge into injections sometime, but will pursue PF therapy for now as I don't have any issues with blood/hormone levels and also no issues with blood flow/leak, but I'm suffering hypertonic pelvic floor dysfunction as the culprit of my severe ED symptoms. I think injections will really save my ass in case therapy doesn't help
