My story after one year on AMS CX 700
Thought telling my story after one year might give some insight to anyone considering this surgery. I am 70. Suffered with ED since around 55. Tried pills, shots etc. all quit working. Decided on the implant. Very happy so far. Sex is quite normal. A few times a week. Wife likes it. Using device is not awkward. Lost a bit of length. Maybe 1/2”. Now 6” length. 5” circumference , about the same as it was. 14 pumps to full erect. Penis was a bit numb for the first 8-10 weeks. Could not orgasm. After around 10 weeks I was able to orgasm. Soon became quite normal. After a few months the pain was gone. There are times now , especially after sex, that penis might ache a tiny bit. Goes away after a day or so. I had the Uro lift procedure about a month ago. Did not seem to effect implant. After getting implant last year I did have the urge to pee more frequently. That kind of went away but returned due to my enlarged prostate. Overall I am happy with my implant.

Boatman...... what a great update! I too have AMS CX and couldn't be more thrilled with the result(s)!
Hope the recovery from Urolift is going well!
