Scared of implant failing on holiday

Postby drayan123 » Thu Nov 03, 2022 5:33 am

Hey guys I love travelling around the world And also if I ever get a gf again she would have to come with me 100% I’m just scared what if the implant stops working right when I go on that little vacation of ours what do I do from there ?

Once you're cleared by your doctor you should be fine. On the other hand, if your implant fails for some reason you'll need a revision. The good news is that the life expectancy of a penile implant is around 15-20 years. That's a lot of vacation time.
I've tried everything -- pills, injections pumps -- and now I am at the final frontier.

Heck, your heart could stop working right when you go on that vacation. You could break a leg. Anything COULD happen. Don't sweat it and enjoy the implant to the fullest

Oh boy, your mind is working overtime.
Like beachbum says, anything could happen.
If the rare occurrence happens that your implant fails on vacation, then it's no more sex until you get fixed.

the amazing thing about the implant is that you have a 100% chance of being able to perform in the bedroom. Anytime, anyplace, for as long as you want.

Yes, implant will fail one day, maybe 3 years after surgery, maybe 15 years. But I agree with others that you probably should be just as worried that you will suffer a major health problem on your trip (ie, heart attack, pneumonia, fall and hit your head, auto accident, etc etc).

So use that implant and stop worrying

Having had three failed implants (actually two failed and one botched).....the worst case is....you can't fuck. You'll want a revision as soon as you can but, remember, before your implant....you couldn't fuck...so you're no worse off but now know the direction to take. Good luck man!

I was so happy to get the implant, I refused to allow the negative thoughts overtake my positive thoughts. I had problems initially, but all I wanted was for everything to eventually become "OK". Well, it did. I will worry about problems once they arrive, but until then I plan to "Keep on F*cking... :D :D :D :D :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
