Has anyone ever destroyed their penis through an implant?

[returntocenter]

That is an underlying issue. Not what the OP has (I think).
He does have a point of mental anguish and (physical) relationship issues.
Bottom line, up to you on implant's worthiness.
Some guys hit the jackpot with an implant and get the penis of their dreams, others, the Dr. messed up.
Do your research, get opinions, take recent pics of yourself (your dick) at attention.
Ask yourself if its worth it.

If you do go through with it, you will have to make sacrifices. Remember, an implant is NOT the real thing. Its tubing, or if its a malleable, just adjustable rods (think flexible neck of a desk lamp). Sex positions will be compromised so you have to do what works for you and your partner.

What do you mean sex positions will be compromised? This is the first I hear of this.

Remember the commercial with the hose that shrinks when water is not in it? Well, the tubing is like that. When filled up, it will not have the flexible bend that your dick had before the surgery. Another way to think about this is how you stuff your dick in your pants. "Normally" it would squish unto itself. After the surgery...NOT! You will notice that it can only bend so much.
Now, when it comes to sex positions, since you are putting/pumping saline into a tube, the tube will get a bit more difficult to bend, esp. at the base of you cock. Positions that used to be 'easy' will not be. An example would be the cowboy. Some guys can, some guys can't. The reverse cowboy would be more suited. You be the judge.
Just telling it like it is....

I feel like i've wrecked mine unfortunately. My implant gets inflamed with any friction (yes friction... as in having sex or wanking!) - no one can do anything for it. I have a big bulge on one side of my penis and my glans are completely crooked and look ugly - before surgery i had a perfectly symmetrical penis.

I miss masturbation with my old penis so so much I cant tell you. I have no idea why people on here say masturbating is the same or even better. It is NOWHERE close to the pure joy of squeezing the muscle on your shaft. PURE JOY. Now I am wanking a dildo wrapped in skin. I still get glans engorgement and full sensitively to be clear. But its NOTHING like my old wanks.

You will regret it unless you are desperate, believe me. I was desperate, and so, despite all of the above, I dont regret it. I dont regret it because I had no choice. This surgery was made for someone with my history of erectile function.

I do feel like my penis is wrecked and i miss wanking my old penis. But if I'm on my death bed tomorrow, I will feel happy and content that I got to have sex without worrying about my erection. The implant has given me that and I've tasted what i've longed for my ENTIRE life, so for that I am eternally grateful.

Go to a doctor and get every test going - do NOT assume you know the cause!

I am awfully sorry to hear about your trials & tribulations. I can only hope that for every case like yours, there are a lot more like mine.

Implant assisted sex is the best sex of my life. I’ll be 68 next month. So it’s not like I haven’t been sexually active for a long time. I’ve got quite a few data points to compare.

Teenage years/Early sex: my built in ED never mattered. I was so thrilled to be getting laid the fact I could only keep an erection for a couple of minutes was irrelevant. I was finished long before then.

Late 20s/Getting married: we (me and wife) knew something wasn’t quite right sexually, but attributed a lot of it to performance anxiety. A year or so after we got married I started seeing doctors. You’re too young for ED, it’s all in your head, you need to relax, try a cock ring….we heard all that shit.

Finally, I took her on a consult. She described in technicolor for the doc EXACTLY how my cock behaved. They did the mid-1980s version of a Doppler with fluoroscope and dyes and induced an erection and weren’t seeing much until they had me change position. Once I moved the erection dissipated like a popped balloon.

So I went on shots. They made it hard to ejaculate, but it was sex and it was light years better than no sex. My case responded only slightly to pills when they came out. Pills plus shots fixed me up pretty well and the ejaculation problems were still there, but less bothersome.

In my late 50s/early 60s it just got to the point pills plus shots weren’t totally reliable. So I said “what the hell…put in an implant.”

After I healed up my only thought is “now I understand why other guys always liked sex. It’s trouble free, I’m not worried about performing, and the sensations I feel with a dick that’s actually real hard are mind blowing.”

Most of my anorgasmia was from trying to fuck with about a 75% erect dick. When you use one that’s hard, the sensation is much more pronounced.

So no, it’s not a skin wrapped dildo that I’m packing. I’ve just fixed a congenital technical defect. Fourth best thing I ever did in my life.

Good stuff! It begs the question: what were the other three things?

This impacts my opinions of implants.

The fact you have had such a bad experience despite going to a supposedly top surgeon shows there's no guarantee. I wonder if the satisfaction rate is actually a lot lower but skewered online.

How did he mess the shape up so badly?

Did you lose any size?

The shape got messed up cos one cylinder got trapped in a bit of scar tissue at a very minor angle during healing. I had to delay cycling cos of stitches issue, and so the issue got worse and there was no going back. I've had other andrologists look at it and they said 'it happens'.

Youre right, no guarantees at all... surgery is a risky business, no matter what your skill level.

Before i got it done, I never doubted the implant was for me. Ever. Not even for one second! If you have doubt then right now, its not for you. Had I learnt about the implant when i was 25, I wouldnt have been interested likely. I still had hope. But when you're 35 or so, any hope of being normal is gone, and so, the implant appears like a gift from the heavens that you grab with both hands.

To reiterate, I still dont regret it. If I could push a button and go back to my old cock (without the option of getting implanted again ever) I wouldnt press it.

Forgot to add... no I didnt lose size. I am a little thicker cos of the bulge and i think i might be a bit longer. I was really sized to perfection, that is for sure.

Can I ask a few questions?

How comes you flew to Dr Eid instead of Dr Ralph in London or the guy in Rome that seems very good.

Is it because of his reputation? Was it difficult with aftercare because of the distance?

How bad was your ED in your 30s? Could you have sex at all?

Is sex good now despite it getting some what inflamed? Sensation good etc?

Thanks
