VED on implant

[Lost Sheep]

This is the microbiologist in me: once you have a vacuum system, it doesn’t matter if it is medical grade or not, or if there is any skin opening, it is forcing microbial agents from the skin, the urethra, etc. To properly sterilize it, it has to undergo not just a deep cleaning but a extreme heat at certain pressure for some period of time in orders to be considered sterilized. There is no way around this fact.

Like an autoclave?

Thanks. Consider me advised.

Exactly. This is a matter of bringing a point to elevate public awareness. If we do not share toothbrushes, imagine using a not properly sterilized VED.

The new ones may not be sterilized, but during the molding process the temperature and pressure conditions make them ready for use. I would even think that the people handling them during their manufacturing and assembling must be required to use gloves to reduce the skin microbial flora transfer.

So washing it thoroughly with 91% or higher alcohol won't do the job?

[ThePlumber1964]

Personally I wouldn’t use it. The array of possible microbial agents that cannot be fully killed and removed by alcohol alone does not make worth the risk.

From reading this I wonder how all men that have had sex with a woman, who was not a virgin, have survived the experience. I know about STIs and such but I know people that have has sex after several other guys and failed to run her through an autoclave between participants . Not meaning to say we should not be careful and be clean but this discussion sounds a little extreme. Just my opinion and I realize that we all have or should have an opinion.

Does it say "Dishwasher Safe" anywhere on the VED?

That is a good point.

Some men will assume the risk assosciated with a pre-owned VED to save a few hundred dollars and the time it takes to get a Doctor on board to write a prescription and/or the hassle of convincimg an insurance compny to pay a portion of the cost. And some will not.

Some women will object to abything but a brand-new vacuum-sealed sex toy and some will not on health, asthetic, moral or simply the "ew, gross* factor.

Let's put this question to rest, shall we? I think the deate will actually change fre monds.

Yeah it went a little off from original post

Hi Brothers.....well curiousity got the best of me.
Pulled out the old VED and gave it a try. I did
five 5 minute sessions with pressure no higher than 5 hg
Only discomfort was from the implant pump. As it’s
fairly high up it did pinch. I am 1/4 inch thicker in girth but
I know this is temporary. But with continued stretching
Who knows what could be. This is all unchartered
territory. First set I did with implant valve open as I
was afraid I might rupture a cylinder. That went well
So I added 8 or 9 pumps and did another set. Next set same but
Added a few pumps while in tube. I’m not advising
Anyone to try this but since no prob so far I will try again.
I ache a little but I’m taking this to be understandable
From the stretching . Will post again after next session hopefully tomorrow.
