Pump / Deflate / Then What?
Pump / Deflate / Then What?
I've finally been able to pump and deflate. But I seem to recall my doctor telling me to quickly pump one more time after deflating to keep the fluid from filling the tubes again. Is this true?
75 years old. Was on Viagra and then Cialis but got fed up with the side effects. Switched to Tri-Mix 3 years ago but had increasingly reduce effect. Finally implanted 1/19/2023. Always looking for advice. Live in Illinois.

Which brand of implant do you have?
I've got a Titan Touch and I keep reading Titan users saying that you press the deflate button again to prevent saline from flowing back into the cylinders but that's never worked for me.
After I fully deflate my Touch, no matter how much I deflate it, saline will flow back into the cylinders to inflate them back to about 20% -- neither hard nor soft --to a chubby but bendable state.
Asked my doc about this and he said not to worry, that's just the way it is. So, I'm not worrying about it anymore.

I think the AMX pump automatically prevents self-inflation when the deflate button is pressed.
The first pump of the bulb, you'll feel a pop, which is the valve moving back to the inflate position.
Age 59. AMS 700 LGX 21cm + 2cm RTE.
Peniscrotal, 2/23.
6.25" OEM with Cialis, about 5" post-op. (11/01: Length 6.75" and girth is up to 4.75" mid shaft.) Still growing, albeit slowly.
Cycling daily. Hoping to get to 7".

That’s correct, regarding the AMS.
