Hi!
In your signature it is stated that you are planning to install ams 700. Which model exactly? lgx or cx? I have one last question before the surgery - the choice of implant. It is a difficult choice between titan and cx. I have a fairly large girth of 6.3 inches = 16 cm. I am more inclined to cx in favor of its more natural look in the deactivated state, but I am afraid to lose a little in girth after installing cx compared to titan, which is embarrassing with its unnatural flaccid look and possible problems with tube erosion. I am 37 years old. Previously, I underwent vein ligation surgery, which led to complications and scarring. After this damned surgery, I came to this forum.

-how long you have had the implant?
6-2023 iplanted .... revision 6-2024 due to undersizing
-What brand implant?
Rigicon 10 mallabble
-any revision
Yes 6-2024
-Are you happy the decision and would you do it again?
Overall yes .. not happy with the surgeon's BS but the implant yes
-are your partner satisfied?
Partner is no longer involved in a relationship sexualy so hard to say
-would you do something differently like a before surgery preparation?, different brand implant?, different surgeon?
Wish I would have had more than 6 weeks to use a VED before surgery .. Brand would more than likely remain the same .. I supposedly went to one of the best surgeons in my area for this type of surgery .. but since it is a teaching hospital I'm no longer sure who has been doing my 3 surgeries.
-financing: insurance? Public health care? Or own pocket and how much it pays?
Medicare first implant copay not bad ..6-2024 was considered an emergency surgery so 2 days in the hospital was quite a bit more.

-4 Weeks
-CXR AMS 700
-Not yet
-Still early days but I'm going to say Yes. However I but would ask more questions surrounding other models after finding the forum.
-No - still early days. Seeing how it goes. Other issues involved.
-Did everything I believed I could to prepare myself, pumps, exercises etc. Only one surgeon in my country that does it so I didn't have an option if I wanted it covered under insurance. If money isn't an issue I would have researched the names spoke about on here and gone with someone with more experience. Still early days so I'll reserve judgement on my own surgeon for now.
- Health insurance cover I have through work covered everything for the surgery over a small excess for a few nights stay. (Surgery decision based on having that area impacted by MS)
MS diagnosed 2020.

About seven months post-op. AMS-700. No revisions. Totally happy and would absolutely do it again. Partner is very satisfied. Fully covered by insurance.
Diagnosed with prostate cancer (genetically predisposed) at 52. Aggressive and required immediate intervention. Robot assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) in December 2021. Erectile function never returned. Penile implant (AMS 700) in March 2024.

- Got implanted 6 weeks ago
- Rigicon Infla10x
- no revsion yet
- I am aware, that it is early, but as of right now I am not happy with the decision, I lost 4cm in length and chances are, they wont come back
- I would not do anything different, because I did everything in my power. Surgery with 2 doctors. One is the highly respected doc in central europe, the other is the doc with most implants done world-wide, so I dont think that was my fault
- my insurance paid everything
30yo, Germany. Priapism January 2024, erections after that sometimes good, sometimes shit.
implanted 09th September 2024, Rigicon Infla10X 20cm+1cm RTE
