I’m pissed.

When I searched for a surgeon I asked does the doctor do Titian implants. I found one who said they did it and when i had my consultation I told him Im wanting a Titian implant.

Today I go in for surgery and they asked me my name and birthdate and what I’m there for … a Titian implant.

I woke up and doctor said it was a success and discharged me. I get home and the paperwork says I have an Ames 700 implant by Boston Scientific. I was was stunned. I’ve only researched Titian implants and until today have never spoken the words Ames 700.

I’m in pain and I am pissed and very disappointed.

Can I please get some feedback from you guys about the Ames device. Do you guys think I’ll be happy with this. ????

Tubing at the base of my shaft: looking for insight

Hi all, I'm on day 7 after my Titan with Dr. Eid. I can feel the tubing from the pump to the reservoir along the left side at the base of my shaft. A small loop of it sits about 1 cm up from the base and about half a cm out from the shaft. It compresses easily, but if it stays like this, it would get pressed on whenever I use my full length, and I don't love the idea of it sitting raised there even if it's not very visible.

- Did your tubing settle in and become less noticeable as the swelling went down?
- Does yours sit low enough that it doesn't take away from usable length at the base?

Should I get Rigicon Infal10 or AMS/Titan?

I’m planning to be part of a clinical trial involving the Rigicon Infal10 AX with Dr Perito. But I also have an option of getting an AMS or Titan and Medicaid will pay for it with Dr Hillelsohn. Considering that the Rigicon Infal10 AX is a fairly new product and is part of this clinical trial study, what implant should I get? What are your thoughts?

AMS700CX pump very difficult to inflate

I will caveat this by saying I'm only on day 7 post op but on day 2, we see the nurse for drain removal and deflation. Due to the excruciating pain of drain removal there was only a small attempt at deflation, now 7 days in I'm comfortable enough to have a go at deflating some more which I have done this has caused some pain so I've tried to partially inflate to 'take up some slack' the 1st half a dozen attempts and the pump wouldn't work. Solid no action , I read the instructions and it says to deflate then hard and sharp inflate and there should be a click. I heard that click and the pump did function to my relief but tried a 2nd pump and the pump again did nothing, pressing really hard and it doesn't operate. Feel like there's something not right here. In my own mind this shouldn't be so tough to operate. Truth be told I was expecting operating force of not much more than crushing a big unripe grape between my fingers. It's currently significantly more than that

Day 20 post-op — Initial swelling is mostly gone, should I still be icing?

I'm currently 20 days post-op. The initial surgical swelling and bruising have pretty much cleared up, but I’ve still been applying ice packs.
At this stage, is there any real benefit to continuing with ice, or should I just stop completely so blood flow isn't restricted? Curious to hear what your docs advised around the 3-week mark. Thanks

Lost girth

I read that people gain girth but I have lost girth, a very noticeable amount. I am at 11 weeks and cycling every day since week 6. In others experience when did you notice any girth gains? I have also lost length but happy with what I have. A bit nervous to use a pump but I will give it a go.

Think I might need surgery young - Need Help

Hey im a 21M that has been dealing with chronic pelvic pain for about 11-12 years and hard flaccid for about 5 ish years (sometime during Covid). My worst symptom is that when standing, I cannot maintain an erection and if I try doing aroused masturbation, it’s very painful and my dick goes down despite being stimulated. I can get erections (maybe 85-95% hard) while sitting down and sometimes laying down. I test standing erections by getting hard while sitting and then standing up, it never works even when alone. I think this came about by some masturbating during Covid where I squeezed the fuck out of my pelvic floor during masturbation and then couldn’t ejaculate, so I kept trying for 30-40 minutes and my standing erections have never been the same since. I could imagine if I somehow heal enough to manage an erection, It would be very painful for me to have sex.

Been in a relationship for about 6 months but have tried sex many times in many positions also with cialis and Viagra, nothing worked. I should tried sex while I was sitting but I don’t want to have sex like that for the rest of my life. Also have lost of Involuntary Kegels while sitting which makes it hard. Moving to girlfriends country in 2.5 ish months, she Lwk threatened to leave me if I didn’t fix these issues by then which has got me stressed as fuck. I did love her a lot, so I feel like my ultimatum is surgery to fix this or break up and spend maybe another 0.5-1.5 years fixing this so that I can date again. But honestly the mental health benefit of having this fixed is so fucking high, that I just wish I could get a surgery and go back to being happy. Never had sex before this girl, simply because of personal beliefs that changed recently.

Watched porn since 12 (now 21) with daily PMO. Covid make me triple+ usage. Stopped porn and mostly masturbation 3-4 months again. Got depressed after moving and got back on maybe 3x a week; the few times I did masturbate here hurt like a fucking bitch. Stopped porn and masturbation again and im about 2 weeks clean.

No mourning wood since covid (5 years)

Other than this, im super healthy 21 yr old, bloodwork all good, in good shape. Was very happy until I learned about my ED. History of depressed/suicidal out during covid.
Pelvic floor - peeing maybe 15 times a day and significantly harder/painful while standing. Ejaculation sends me into a flare up that lasts 2-3 hours of pain, loss of sensation, crazy urges to pee.

I’ve been doing pelvic PT for 3-4 months. Now have done 1 month of psychotherapy, breathwork, and traditional Chinese medicine/acupuncture.
Also tried Angion. This made my

I do have chronic pain in other areas but not nearly as bad. I was beating my meat 3-5x daily during covid and was suicidal back then, so I think that combination fucked me up.

Nervous system is probably fucked up, but I’ve been putting in a lot of work with no avail.

Cialis/viagra gave me slightly better erections, but also went down when I stood up (or got on my knees) to try and put it in.

Losing hope. Thinking of getting a penile implant.

It’s common in the porn scene, why couldn’t it work for me? Scared to lose size tho, im 6.5 in erect sitting/laying, 6 in standing for the first 10/20 seconds (goes down fast), and was 7 in before hf, also 7 hf laying down recently on a good day doing Angion method.

Did Angion method for 2/3 weeks and saw… good results but only when sitting/laying down, and I stopped because I couldn’t relax the pelvic floor to save my life.

TLDR: chronic pelvic pain and hard flaccid from squeezing pelvic floor and lots of masturbation in my super stressed years of covid; can’t get hard standing. Tried PT, normal therapy, Chinese medicine, strengthening, breathwork.
I never want to think about pelvic floor and erections again. I don’t care about pain or numbness, I just want to penetrate my girlfriend. Should I get a penile implant?

Hand pain

Started cycling 2 weeks ago. Cleared by doctor for sex. But now my hand is beginning to hurt like hell and I’m assuming it’s from cycling since the pump is so hard. Titan Classic here. Has anyone else experienced hand pain and if so what did you do about it? I’m fearful it’s arthritis.

How long did you wear it tucked up in your waistband?

Quick question for those further along in recovery. How long did you keep your Titan positioned up in your waistband during healing, and was it all day or just certain hours? I'm asking for aesthetic healing purposes, since I've read it helps with how you eventually settle when inflated. thanks!

First look after the dressing came off, please share!

Day 3 after my Titan with Dr. Eid, and to be frank, it looks fucked up now that the dressing is off: bruised, swollen, dents and bumps. I know it's supposed to look off, but I'm still shaken. If anyone else felt this way, would you be willing to share:

- What was your first reaction when the dressing came off?
- How did your new flaccid change from day 3 to a couple of months out?

I need you guys on this life changing decision

I've been circulating, gathering info, & talking to members of this sub for almost 2 years now. I'm a type 1 diabetic who didn't get control of myself until about 3 years ago, & now my levels, body, healing times, etc. are almost flawless. I'm in the best shape I've ever been - other than the ED problem. From around late 2018 to 2023 I started having issues with full hardness, cialis helped for years, viagra was a huge miss. If I drank alcohol, it was a fight on cialis to maintain erections for long. Then from around mid 2023 until now, I've had difficulty even achieving one at all, even with the great health changes. This summer I visited my urologist with my history, checked my testosterone which was 350, I expected to have a much lower number even though it's on the low side, but he prescribed me Trimix. I came back for training on how to use it where he injected me with 10 units on a 1mL syringe, about a ½ hour after leaving I was large & hanging but not fully erect, so a few days later I took the recommended dose of 30 units, & with stimulation I was able to achieve about 75% of what I used to have during the noticeable troubling times, but it only lasted under an hour. My urologist told me that men can go all the way up to a full 100 units on the syringe - which I couldn't imagine doing since it's so painful even getting 30 in without severe discomfort. So here's where I'm at guys... he said if I'm not successful with Trimix, the next move is the implant. I somehow knew this was the outcome, & even if the Trimix worked, nobody wants to stab their penis & plan out sex, we want the option of spontaneous fun experiences. I'm 99% positive my insurance will cover the entire procedure as it states in it's coverage for penile implants that as long as it's medically necessary due to diabetes or other issues & is reconnected by a urologist, that they do cover it.

Do I make the appointment with urology, tell them the Trimix just isn't working as hoped & go ahead & get this show on the road? Or do I try increasing doses or attempt the stronger Quadmix before I go all in?

Thanks everyone here for always being supportive, cool, respectful & mature about this topic, I appreciate any feedback
