Sex with a Penile Implant

Ok 6 Months out with the Implant. Finally feeling fully comfortable with the Implant. I must say it is a great thing to have my "self" back. No more pills great, no more injections that gave me Peyronies great, no more failures great, no more fear great. Have had many times to use the implant it's slightly different then before. I am a little shorter but not much. I suggest that if you suffer from ED at any level pay the price and get it back. I'm surprised they don't offer an implant at the same time as the RALP. Just get it over with and move on with your life. Ok on to the "juicy stuff" penetration is a little more challenging but is great to be able to perform as long as you like. My new penis is a little less sensitive but for some that might be a good thing as you can enjoy sex much longer if you desire. My girlfriend has absoutlely no idea it's an implant and seems very happy with both oral sex and intercourse. It seems normal to me now. I feel great about it and feel fully confident. I just excuse myself to the bathroom and 15 to 25 pumps later I'm ready for hours of sex. If I know I'm going have sex I pre-pump 10 or 15 times so I'm excited from minute one. Then just add some more pumps when fully ready and you are good to go. Another positive side effect is no more shrinkage with a tiny wiener. I'm always have a good sized penis even when resting. If you go somewhere like the locker room, or a nude beach "which I have never been to yet" you have a proud penis at all times. I'm very happy this was done. At first it's a little challenging but once you get used to this it's worth every obstacle to get there.
I wasted 4 years of my life trying every option, I slipped into a terrible depression and withdrew from life. Now I'm very happy again to know I'm complete. If anyone has any questions please don't hesitate to ask. Thank you

Bigal--
Your subject line had me worried. So I was glad to read you're actually having sex with your girlfriend, and she's the one having sex with your implant. That sounds like a nice arrangement!

Al, glad to hear things worked out for you. I recall encouraging you to go for it but you seemed extremely reluctant. My experience is basically identical to yours.

Pat, I had the same implant you are going in for, and it couldn't have worked out better for me. If I recall correctly, I tried having sex a few weeks out and it was a bit too soon, but I think 6 weeks out it was fine.

One thing I'll comment on - my surgeon said that the length of the implant is non-negotiable - you can see how long it will be by taking the head of your penis (while flaccid) and pulling it out as far as you can. That will be the length when inflated. As Al mentioned, it doesn't really shrink much or grow much, so if you are average sized before the surgery it will appear over average when not pumped up. I say this because I was above average before the surgery and that is my experience as well. Relative to just post-surgery the length can increase a bit but that may have more to do with getting back to where you should be. For the first months to a year you want to inflate it often - I usually did in the shower each day so that it stretches out to full extent over time.
My surgeon mentioned that some are not happy with the length afterwards, but it is not possible to make it larger than described because your anatomy is what it is. I suspect that those below average may be more likely to come away less content.
That said, I am with Al - life is much better now, no more Peyronie's and no more anxiety about having sex.

"I'm surprised they don't offer an implant at the same time as the RALP"

i'm pretty sure that would be counterproductive to selling the procedure.

Tom, you never knew what your doc did once you were under He never measured me until then (apparently).
No change in urine flow. Implant is in a different region of your member.

Make Your Device Suffice With This One Weird Trick
One thing I have noticed since getting my implant is that sticking to my diet makes a big difference in its perceived size. As you get heavier the fat pad thickens and slumps lower. Since we only give the device credit for the part that sticks out past our flab, losing weight make it (effectively) bigger. I realize that this offers no help for our already-thin brethren but, judging from the forum members I have personally met, it should work for most of us.

Thanks so much Tom and Im_P for your replies regarding urine flow. You are helping me with the confidence to do the penile implant surgery. Any referral to the best PI surgeon in the Los Angeles area? Maybe you do not offer that kind of advice on this site?

Hi Tom...I would like the info on the Southern CA penile implant surgeon...is it Dr. Jesse Mills at UCLA? Thanks so much.

Thanks so much Tom for this extensive information...really appreciate it...I am also located in the Palm Springs or Coachella Valley, CA area...I read about a surgeon Dr. Steven J. Wilson in Rancho Mirage, CA...ever heard of him? And, I am checking out Frank Talk. Thanks again for your expertise and suggestions.

Bigel, Did you notice a bulge across your pubic area from the hose going to the liquid receptor? Mine is uncomfortable. Thanks

You gain in girth; I went from 4.8 around to 5.2; not much but every little bit helps. Over time, the implants soften up more, maybe get a little more. Same thing with length. Mine is only 5 weeks in and still ridged. I think the more I pump, the more flexible it becomes. By the way, flaccid girth same as erect girth. Not so for length. Looks good in the locker room, no more “shrinking turtle”!
