PUMP...PUMP.....PUMP

Postby RETIRED2010 » Tue Apr 17, 2012 8:50 am

Gentlemen


I had my AMS 700 Ultrex installed a year ago. I was 6" and now I am 4.5", I came out of the operation at 4". Girth was skinny and got better. About 6 months ago things were coming along and I was pushing 5". Now it seems that I pump and pump, it gets to the 4.5" then I don't feel any additional inflation, although there appears to be plenty of room for more fluid to enter the member.

The member is somewhat floppy also. I know there is more capacity.

I would assume that when cylinder capacity is reached the pump bulb would resist and you couldnt pump any more. If I remember it was that way earlier. I can pump 50 times if I want now with no additional engorgement.


Any ideas. Al

You're right....when mine is fully inflated, my pump won't budge anymore...if yours continues to allow you to pump, then it sounds like you have some kind of leak.

Thanks.....I haop I can get some additional insight on this. It is possible I am not pumping correctly.


Does anyone pump then stop for a while then pump again. I do this sometimes. Would that not work.

Yes, you can start and stop...usually when I think I'm finished and I wait a little while, i can get another partial squeeze.

As far as pumping incorrectly, that's possible. On the first pump, you should feel a pop. From then on, each pump should be filling your erection. Perhaps you are depressing the release valve at the same time or something. That would definitely negate the pumping. Other than that, I don't have a clue. You need to see your urologist to see what's going on.
