Pursuing implant at 18

[Ezz616]

A couple months back I introduced myself to franktalk telling my story of having ed since age 14 and as its declined I have now reached the point I can't get and I sure as hell can't maintain any kind of rigid erection and how I've tried the pills which to call useless would be giving them too much credit. I also tried the VED which sucked blood into my penis but it didn't work with cock rings (not that I care because I wasn't about to use an awkward ass cock ring and VED for sex) but my use of the VED is only because I haven't been able to see any implant specialist about an implant because I am well, was, a "pediatric" case and couldn't get anyone to seriously consider giving me an implant but now that I've recently turned 18 my journey can finally begin.

Now my mindset is simply stop at nothing to defeat ED. I have no interest in trying injections, hell I never even wanted to try Viagra or Levitra or use this stupid VED. From the beginning it was daily Cialis or implant for me. I don't want any worthless "treatment" that necessitates me take a stupid headache pill on an empty stomach just so that I could maybe jerk off an hour later and I sure as hell didn't want to put a needle in my penis. Now had the daily cialis worked I probably would have stuck with that because that would have made me feel normal but the fact is it didn't and the other "solutions" (not that I see them as solutions) require planning and have side effects and as an 18 year old I deserve better than that.

I don't want a temporary solution I want a reliable, spontaneous, and almost supernatural solution that the implant provides. In Dr Hakky's webinar for example he says the implant has a 1000psi which is more than a natural erection so going from ED to an unnaturally hard erection sounds super empowering to me. I don't like the other "options" because the fact is they don't eradicate ED the way an implant does so to me it feels like I would be settling for an inferior solution and be a fool for allowing my ED to continue existing. I don't care one bit about the fact that its not a "natural" erection with saline filled cylinders providing rigidity to my penis instead of blood filled corporas because the fact is my corporal bodies already decided to give up I find it reasonable that they should be destroyed and replaced for their decision to keep my penis flaccid. Also, not only does the implant give you spontaneous erections back (in the sense you can have them when you want) but it also lets you stay hard as long as you want and get harder than ever before. For me I'm looking to throw both middle fingers to whatever genetic mutation gave me ED at 14 in the first place and punish my penis for having the audacity to be soft. Going from ED to a dick comparable to a battering ram would undoubtedly put the ED in its place and be my way of saying to the ED you don't mean shit, I'm in control and I say how hard I am for as long as I want and there isn't a goddamn thing you can do about it.

Now the three main doctors im looking at are Doctor Marah Hehemann in Seattle because she’s close (im in college in Vancouver) and not of that stupid exhaust all other options mindset, Dr Clavell, and Dr Hakky because they’re fantastic surgeons with low out of pocket costs which is something I need to consider because at my age insurance is gonna do everything they can not to pay for it and while my family can likely pay for an implant from just about anyone it wouldn’t make sense to pay more when these guys have low out of pocket costs and top-notch surgical ability

I am going to discuss with my dad in the coming days how we’re going to move forward and how were going to work to absolutely obliterate my ED and create a world in which it no longer exists. Again I will stop at absolutely nothing to absolutely annihilate my ED and put my penis in its place for failing me. I have no fear, hesitation, or doubt I’m making the right call. I do not fear the prospect of not being able to “go back” (to soft ass short lived “erections”) once the implants in place and I view ED as a monster who’s only purpose Is to be slaughtered. Nothing short of god himself coming down from the heavens and ripping my penis clean off my body will stop me from getting this goddamn implant.

An implant is definitely a smart and effective move.

Injections? Yeah, never made sense to me either. If I wanted to jerk off all day, should I really be stabbing my fucking dick every time? No thanks, I’m not signing up for that.

I wish I’d been as smart as you when I was dealing with the same thing at a younger age. I know exactly what you're going through. Plus, let’s be real, this surgery costs less than a new fucking Toyota Corolla these days! When you're job hunting, definitely check if they offer Humana, UHC, or BCBS. They typically cover implants and any necessary revisions down the line. Aetna and Cigna, though? Total pains in the fucking ass.

Also, great job on getting a solid list of surgeons together to finally put ED in the rearview mirror for good!

[dan_bionic]

Oh man, sorry for you really dealing with ED at so early stage of your life and yes I would say the implant is the best solution, having such a trauma and anxiety to start injections or pills. I understand you want a kind of permanent solution which in fact is the implant.

But you need to know that in average every 10 years you'll need a revision which is the limited factor to have an implant at such a young age.
However, if you find a good doctor and a good implant, it's probably the best you can do to fight ED.

The implant is great and the best solution for ED, it works and give you a complete new sexual life!

All the best!

Cheers
Dan

Hey Man, first of all i must say i appreciate you for "stopping at nothing to defeat ED", i have seen other teenagers in forums or in reddit talking they want to kill themselves before even trying the implant. So i really appreciate that you have this positive attitude.

I don't blame you for not trying injections. I also skipped them (even if pills worked 50% for me). You are 18 years old so really starting putting needles in your penis for so many years i feel its not a great idea long term, also if you are single must be difficult to carry your injections with you every time you want to have sex with a new girl (while the pills at least you can put them in your pocket).

One thing to know: An implant is not an instant solution. There is a lot of pain involved in recovery, it is a long recovery a lot of things that can go wrong, so you need to know you are taking a risk. If you are mentally ready to go through that pain and take that risk, then go for it.

I am 2 weeks post op and i can tell you it is not easy, but i am hoping that things are bright at the end of the road.

Sure, recovery is tough, but a bright future a "NEW" sexual life is awaitiung you and that is worth to go hopefully through the recovery time, which is around 4-6 weeks.

just one tip, considering your young age i would go with rigicon since it has a lifetime warranty. You will need many revisions at your age

Good advice!

Personally, I would really take implant as a last resort. Once the tissue is destroyed there is no coming back. I think you might over idolise the treatment as ipp. It is different to natural erection. You might get infection, undersizee, lose glands engorgemenet and so on and on.

If pills and cockring work for you, I would use them together until they dont work. Some ft members have to use pills and cockring after implant to have sex. Some have to you the ved after implant to get blood there.

Ezz616 says, he tried cockring and pills and it didn't work.
Sure, there are many complications wich could occur, however 93% of implanted are complete and satisfied and most, including me, say
"The best gift I ever made to me and I should have done it 30 years ago, instead of suffering psycho problems"

Anyway, for sure it has to be discussed well considering all opinions.

What does the lifetime warranty actually mean in this case? Is the cost of the device fully covered for revisions for the rest of your life, so you would just pay the cost of surgery?

Do you still get a lifetime warranty if your first implant was not rigicon?
