No worries. There's an important lesson here - if you need an implant, get it. Nothing good happens while you're putting it off.

The 6 weeks post are a good benchmark I think. It was 8 weeks for me as I developed a hematoma and had to wait till it healed. That said it just gets better and better as the healing becomes complete and the device beaks in.

...for me, it was shortly after my activation on 1/11 (about 4 weeks). Was really too sore to be enjoyable, but I had to give it a test!!! Took about 8 weeks or so to feel natural w/ no discomfort...now it feels completely natural & the sex is excellent/best ever...

I had thought tonight. Why Wait? You come home erect, have pain pills, what's the hold up? :lol:
LGX 21cm .Milam 01/13/16. Horror; both service and surgical outcome. hated infrapubic installation. Kramer revision 03/01/17. 22cm Titan +1.5cm extender. Those who think their opinion is the only one that matters are a danger to themselves and others.

dg_moore, you have, by far, the saddest story on here. Just when you get a usable package, you have a stroke and lose the drive, My friend you don't know what you are missing.
