3 weeks 2 days so far, agony...another 2 weeks 5 days until next appointment (not that Im counting!)

Can deflate it half way but last half wont move then just refills itself over the next few minutes

You have a 90 degree pyronies?? The doc may have you inflated so long to straighten out your bend. I would follow his orders and ask for pain meds.

But the pain was unbearable, so I didn't feel able for them to even try it. I think they're going to try again today - meaning that I will have spent my first 2 nights semi-inflated.

Wanted to ask for how many nights others on the board were kept semi-inflated for straight after their implant?

I was supposed to be 2 weeks until staples were taken out. I only had 2 pumps about 20%. My tips were uneven after the 5th night I woke up covered in blood. Peed more blood with intense burning near the tip. Stood in the hot shower and gingerly tried to deflate. Took 20-30 minutes of very really NO fun to do it. Bleeding stopped.
I'm scheduled for a revision on Dec 4th and this time I will use my vacuum to keep the tip pressure under control. Your penis is trying desperately to shrink. If you deflate now it will and then you will spend months or years trying to regain your loss. Good luck

10 days for me, I had lots of scarring from Peyronies.

What a relief!

Just wondering, did you grow much with cycling after the 26 days inflated? How much? How long after implant? Thanks.

G’day Beek
I recall quite clearly at around the 8 month mark thinking I was done with cycling and decided to take a break only to read on FT that someone else cycled beyond 12 months to great effect.
I revisited my regime of twice daily inflating to a high level of discomfort....I found that I was able to squeeze the pump beyond what I had experienced previously and ended up taking the program well beyond 12 months.
Of course all through this time I was fucking and wanking in parallel with my daily extreme inflation torture.
My surgeon told me I would see an increase in size over 18 months and he was correct.
It’s difficult to say where on the timeline certain benchmarks occurred.....I can say that I think I reached maximum length at about 12 months .....ahead of girth recovery which seems to me to be still in progress.
You can laugh if you want but my beautiful girlfriend H has been commenting lately that oral sex has changed because my girth has increased.
So.....I can’t comment for anyone else but I have to say I believe in the whole cycling strategy.....it was a pain and I didn’t enjoy it BUT it paid off for me and I think my thickness and overall shape has gradually evolved leading right up til now at 22 months post-op :)

Hey guys - just to let you know how things went after my original post on this - I had the device deflated (from the semi-inflated position that it had been kept in after surgery) on Day 4 in the end. (Day 4 = 3 nights after surgery)

Plan had been to delate on Day 2, but due to that post-Aneshetic sickness I had I didn't let them do it until Day 4.

Been kept in a deflated state since Day 4, and surgeon hasn't tried inflating it again yet since - as post-surgery pain still there.

Thank you Carl - had an appointment with doctor today infact where he tried cycling it for first time - but the pain is still too much so not able to yet anyway. Will need to give it more time to heal before can even try.

It felt okay when he was inflating it - but it's the deflation bit that's still too painful. Apparently this is common for patients recovering from an implant (so he was telling me) - for the deflation to be more painful than the inflation - due to where the deflation valve is located (deep within the balls).

(I had incision below the penis and so I thought the pain had been coming from the stitches - but the doctor tells me this pain is infact coming from within the balls - where commonly felt after this surgery).

I am7 months since ipp. When deflating at first, it was like squeezing my left nut. I could not do it. My surgeon squeezed it and it thought I would go through the ceiling of his office. Still today, when I prepare to squeeze it, I think to my self , jam that button. I have to do that to get past the initial pain. It is not that bad but there is this physiological thing. It gets better. Hang in there.

Good to know..
Yeah healing is a bit rough.. make sure to ice you scrotum as much as you can, that will really heal keep swelling down and ease the pain. Pumping and deflating will get better over time, the more you cycle the better.

If you have any questions feel free to PM me.

Carl



Carl is absolutely correct. Ice but not for more than 20 minutes at a time (every couple of hours) Anymore can cause tissue damage. Once ALL the swelling goes down, soak in a tub of water as hot as you can stand... it softens up the rubber, relaxes you scrotum and testicles and makes it easier to pump. Do the pumping right in the tub.

Good luck :)

The reason that I inflate myself -- rather than having another person do this -- is that the testicular cords* can be squeezed by mistake, and that hurts as much as having the testicle squeezed itself. (And a urologist should know this.)

* "Spermatic (testicular) cord. A cord-like structure in the male reproductive system that contains nerves, blood and lymph vessels, and the vas deferens (a coiled tube that carries sperm out of the testicle). It runs from the abdomen to the testicle, and connects to the testicle in the scrotum (external sac)." (From the U.S. National Institutes of Health.)
