RTE ISSUES?

[ruwansilva25]

Any guys have issues with RTEs?

Do they get loose?
Do they hurt during sex for a while?
For how long did they feel uncomfortable?

I watched a doctor explain that sometimes RTEs can get loose and wiggle around.

Thanks in advance

Four years with 5 cm of RTEs.

No issues. I can not tell any difference.

I’m still not sure why they configured me this way. Was it for tubing placement? Did it have anything to do with hanging a reservoir in an abdomen with a history of hernias and they wanted to keep tubing below a certain length? Did it contribute to the dynamite angle I have when pumped/erect?

I have no idea. Thus is also my first implant. It doesn’t wobble. They’ve never separated. I am at a loss to know how things could be much better.

In this video by Dr Clavell, he explains that RTE length is based on depth of the crus. He says that even if two patients measure 21cm total of implant, one could have a 21cm model with 0 RTE while he may give another patient an 18cm model with 3cm RTE based on differences in the patients' crus measurements.

I have RTE, from what I’ve read on here, there are pros and cons from different Dr point of views. I haven’t had any problems and please correct me if I’m wrong but I haven’t read post of anyone here complaining about problems causing by them having RTE

I also have no issues with RTEs.
I believe the doc used them to have the tubes going to the pump be a straight shot, and the right length.
