Seeking a Permanent Solution for Venous Leak

[Tka_ui]

I am a 28-year-old man. During the first year of my marriage, I noticed issues with maintaining an erection and sought medical help, where I was diagnosed with a venous leak. Viagra was highly effective in addressing the problem, providing me with a strong, long-lasting erection. Occasionally, I used cheaper alternatives, which also gave good results. However, my wife had a different perspective. She believed that relying on Viagra wasn’t a sustainable solution and feared that it would eventually stop working, which led to the end of marriage.

Since then, I’ve been searching for a permanent solution to the venous leak and came across the idea of erectile implants. Unfortunately, in my country, only a small number of doctors perform this procedure, and their success rates don't seem promising. Over the course of a year, I reached out to a few patients through Facebook groups to gather information and understand their experiences. I discovered that a significant number of patients expressed dissatisfaction with their implants.

One individual I spoke with experienced an infection in his implant, requiring a replacement stent after several months, but he was still not fully satisfied. Another patient told me that his implant broke inside his penis in less than two years, noting that he had opted for a cheaper, second-class implant. Overall, I found that satisfaction rates for the procedure in my country don’t exceed 65% at best.

Given my situation, would you advise undergoing this operation despite the risks? If you were in my position, would you proceed with the surgery? Also, please note that English is not my native language, so I apologize if the text is not perfectly written.

ChatGPT? lol

Given the risk you outline, I wouldn't go through with it.

What country are you in? Those 'success rates' which are low are individualistic and localized. Not everyone suffers from complications, and not even a majority of us do. It might be different in your country though - hence the question.

IPP or MPP should be your last resort. If you have any other method of maintaining an erection that is feasable I would go that route, because once you go this one, there is no turning back.

Just because your wife (ex wife?) thinks that way doesn't mean she's right, and it also doesn't sound like she's supportive. Remember - this is NOT your fault. Its biology pure and simple - and we have ways of fixing that.

Good luck in your journey!

First off, your wife is a horrible person. You will find better. I went through a very similar situation in my journey.

What country are you in? Do not go to a shitty surgeon. There are maybe 10 in the world I would trust to do mine.

Overall, I think satisfaction with the operation is very high. The majority of the people who come to the internet to talk about it are the ones who had issues. Most who had a good results just move on with their life happily.

I do not know how much money you have saved up, but you can pay out of pocket in the US.

I would stick to pills as long as they’re working. Post that an implant can be considered.

No no no, if pills work well there is absolutely no reason to get an implant. It is a drastic irreversible surgery.

If you worry about spontaneity, you can try tadalafil (cialis). It stays in your system 2-3 days so you can take it to in the morning or the night before like a vitamin and don't have to worry about taking it before sex. Some people take a small dose daily, others take a larger dose as needed.
