Poll: When did you start Cycling?

[Mrprime]

I had dr eid. That first cycle had me in the most agonizing pain. one day around 2 week mark, i went to cycle and i noticed it was very puffy and i caught fever. My white blood cell count was up one day then dropping the next. I know i had an infection but it completely resolved on its own. No scar tissue or anything. All i can tell you is i could not hold it pumped for 40 min daily that first week...I was in excruciating pain..but the pain always subsided upon release of the fluid. I stuck with it..grit down the pain,,hot baths and made the best of it. Im a grower so i found the best way to get things down was to pump 5 times..bend in all 4 directions ..pump bend pump bend....as the stiffness came,,i bend less and less..I was holding the base and bending the top half of penis 90 degrees at flacid and some pumps....what didnt help was before surgery i was lefty erected...Now im straight erect...a very light hint of left....At my one year mark i still bend pump bend in shower of before sex..and i did gain girth...im 5.5 inch girth.

I am about 6 inches now, maybe a little over, and as far as pain cycling, its mostly in the base, same as others have stated.
I am still doing it a few times a week, and 2x a day if time. but maybe 3 or 4 total a week...

But definatelly happy with things.

I have dog ears, but they don't bother me.... gone if I pump. But I keep as much out as I can for daily routine.
Also from what others have said, the tubes soften over time.

I hope that answers the questions.

By pain at the base, you mean the part that inserts into your body? I notice it behind my scrotum as the part of the cilinder that goes into the body

Yes, where the implant is rooted.. probably because full inflation pushes agaist your body.

When i inflate to the max, i feel pain behind my scrotum, probably in the rear tips of the implant. I wonder if it's normal to feel pain there and if it would eventually go away or if it's supposed to stay like that.

I did my 1st cycle in Dr. EID's office on day 3. then 2 x a day for 30 minutes for 3 weeks per his instructions, and I still cycle when I think about it. maybe 3 to 5 times a week. I am about 4 months post op.

I may increase though to increase size. But no worries now about scar tissue. I just do casual cycling... and usually ending with masturbation because... why not

What does it mean by early cycling for docs that follow this protocol (Example Eid/Hakky)? Does it mean full inflation/deflation lets say on day 3 or does it mean slowly build up to full inflation/deflation over the course of many days starting on day 3.
