Devastating Length Loss

[TheDongDangler]

Hello hello!

I have started a Journal here, but been very busy lately. I will update my original thread in a few days!

So, I will give some facts before we (hopefully) discuss that I am not as fucked as I see myself right now.

- 5 weeks post surgery
- started cycling 3 weeks post surgery
- distal: 11cm
- proximal: 10cm
- implant: 20cm +1cm RTE Rigicon Infla10x
- pre length:
- around 18cm NBPEL (7 inches)
- 19,5cm BPEL (7,6 inches)

- current length aroused: 13,5cm NBPEL (5,3 inches)

So I lost 4,5cm (1.7 inches) in length.

Now I am pretty sure everyone will tell me "give it time, cycle daily, you will recover, it can take up to a year, ..). I get that. But what I dont get is the following:

- 19,5cm bone pressed before, 21cm implant. So only 1,5cm deep crus? Or lets give it 3,5cm crus, because of glans engorgement. Allready seems kind of off, doesnt it?
- last point allready not a fact because he meassured 10cm proximal. So only 11cm of implant length left for almost 20cm of penis. Dont think my glans will engorge 9cm...
- Rigicon Infla10x wont increase in lenght, so where should those missing inches come from?
- if I add up those 11cm distal with 2,5cm glans engorgement, I am spot on at those 13,5cm I am left with right now.
- if I inflate as much as pain lets me, I can grab my glans and extend my penis without much effort for around 2-3cm, pulling the cylinders out of my glans
- if i cycle and get pain, I only get the pain in the shaft, girthwise its extending (like its supposed to), no pain or preassure inside the glans


I dont know if I am missing something here, but seems to me, that I maybe got slightly undersized(?)
Still dont get the science behind cylcing for lenght. Where does the lenght increase via cylcing come from, if cylinders dont expand in lenght?

If you go by the "one third is in your body"-rule of thumb:
- coming from a 18cm penis, you get a 27cm implant
Going by "one quarter is inside your body":
-you get a 24cm implant.

Calculating the other way, with 21cm implant:
-1/3-rule: 14cm is outside your body
-1/4-rule: 15,7cm is outside your body

So it seems like I the meassurements I have right now seem to line up with the implant lenght I have. But nothing lines up with the penis length I had before.
I can not imagine getting back to my original length, with the 21cm implant I have right now.

Quick question, why did you go with the infla 10x and not the AX?
I also got a 20+1 but my bpel was 17.5cm (smaller than yours). I haven't seen someone in this forum with such a big size as you, which still has a 21cm total implant.

I hate to sound like a broken record.

I think you need a second opinion.

And obviously that second opinion comes from someone other than your original surgeon.

My situation was similar to yours with some very critical differences. Yes, I’m a bit concerned you might have been a bit undersized. That can be addressed, so don’t go jump off a bridge. Also I think you’ll find that a smaller albeit rock hard cock gives you as much pleasure as your larger one did and the size of your pecker makes practically no difference to your lady friends.

I’m not sure why we, as males, can’t get that thru our heads. Length? Who cares? Girth? Yeah, it’s relevant. But rock hard is where it’s at.

Our critical differences. I started out with a 17.4 cm dick. Nowhere near 18 or 19 cm. Also I have 23 cm of implant. And 30% of my dick is buried in the crus, leaving 70% visible/usable. Well within that range considered typical.

It’s been five years so I don’t really remember the five week mark. I do remember that at three weeks I was roughly 4 1/2 to 4 3/4 inches in length so I had lost over 2 inches. By the six week mark a lot of the swelling has subsided And I was seeing about an inch more of my dick. Still, that left me any inch shy of where I started.

Faithful cycling and use gave me that extra inch. Also, I am equipped with the LGX model so that worked in my favor.

I am convinced that I was very well and properly sized. What makes me think that is that I can gently palpate the underside of my cock head when I have it fully inflated and find the ends of the implant about .4 inches down from my piss slit. I would think where are you find the end of your implant op to tell you whether you are correctly sized or undersized.

This early, hitting the panic button is way too premature. I do think this situation bears watching closely. This could very well turn out to be much Ado about nothing. But man, you have a shallow crus.

You have 18cm live cylinder , he has 20. Waynetho had a 15 cm AMS CX and was erect at 15 cm.

Dong, I saw some pic posted by Waynetho and it didn't seem at all a 15cm erect penis honestly. He never provided a pic with a measurment so I doubt those size are correct

He posted photos of him at the beginning before cycling

He’s just fat so it looks smaller

Some posters get all hyped up about why some men with lets say have 18cm cylinders and yet they are bigger then a man that has 21cm. They forget that every man is different. Some have fatter penis then others, same for length. Cylinders can be 18cm but they can be made longer by adding rte at the base. A good surgeon will measure with a tool that comes with the kit and will adjust accordingly. But there are good surgeons and then there are some that are not that familiar with the type of surgery. Being there and had to go for a third revision because on the second revision the surgeon did not pull the cylinder far enough into the gland. He left the tips at the base of the gland. So on the third revision another specialists made sure the cylinders were pulled more into the gland and added rte's at the base which was perfect. I am very happy with the length and the girth.

Hi, i Just read you had a revision because your implant did not reach the glans. I am going through the same situation now. Which model was it that was not in the glans? and did you end up changing the model as well?
Sent you a pm

I'm not sure what to really say. I am at 8 months post surgery (2/8/24). During the first few months, my wife would make a sometimes hurtful joke. She would say, What are you gonna do with that little thing. I could have let her words get me down, but I didn't let it get me down. Several brothers in here told me to hang in there, (cycle...cycle...cycle) it will get better and larger. The plus, I gained a hard dick, I gained some girth, but I did loose some length, (From 7 to 6) but two pluses are better than none. I don't miss that 1/2 - 1 inch. And now, she doesn't either. The trade off from nothing to whenever, I'll take the later. You just have to learn new positions to better lay pipe.

So those are the kind of answers, that kill every last hope for me.
You got an Implant that will expand up to 20% in lenght and still lost 1 inch.
I have an implant that does not expand in lenght.
If u are 6inches now, which is your LGX with 20% expansion, your LGX without the 20% would be spot on 5 inches. 2 less, then pre surgery. So it makes sense, I lost 2 inches. Never mind, thank you anyway BigDog.

Stampede, did you have penoscrotal or infrapubic approach?

penoscrotal

Sounds strange! Isnt the diameter in width of the Rigicon Infla10X particularly large?
