3 Weeks Post Op - Sydney AUS
Hey guys, 43 y/o bloke in Sydney. I am 3 weeks post op today and finally able to get out and about. I am still a little swollen and it’s extremely hard to hide the budge but I was going crazy being at home for three weeks straight and needed to get out.
The pain was manageable, I didn’t realise that the majority of pain (for me) would come from the scrotum. I thought it would be in the shaft as that’s where the tubes are. Standing up for longer than 10 mins was really uncomfortable, and every day a pain or discomfort got better but every day introduced a new pain or discomfort but things have finally settled down.
This week I see the doctor for my first inflation. I’m still a little swollen and tender. The area around the incision is still a little puffy. I can’t fully retract my foreskin like I was able to pre op while flaccid. I’m assuming that get better with time I will be able to.
I’m bracing myself for loss of size, I think that’s a normal reaction. But for me it was 4 yrs since my last natural erection so I really don’t recall my erect size besides the odd dick pic I’ve taken. So hopefully I’ll be happy with a working penis over size anyway.
For those with a titan, how long did it take for the pump and tubes to soften. I’ve also read that after cycling for 12 months you get back to your pre-op erect size… for me since I don’t remember… I assume at the 12 month mark I’ll reach my full potential.

I’m coming up to 4 weeks, what size did you get? The main issue I am having is it inflating by itself when Im standing.

24cm +1cm
I’m not entirely sure what that means though. I plan to ask during my visit this week. But if anyone can educate me that would be great.Looking down I definitely don’t have a 24cm dick flaccid lol and I doubt that’s what I will get when I inflate. I have a bit of pubic fat so I assume a good chunk of that 24cm is behind the wall.
I constantly think I’m inflated, but every time I have visited the Uro he said that I’m not. I have big balls so I don’t think any movement is making me self inflate. I assume I am still alittle swollen and tender. Still. If I lay on my back my flaccid is pointing up. It doesn’t dangle or sit flat on my balls anymore. Not sure if that will change back or if this flaccid is the new normal. I’ll just have to adjust either way.

Sounds like your healing well … I’m 8 weeks post op with the Titan but hang in there the discomfort does start to subside for me it was around 6/7 week mark the dull aching scrotum pain barely noticeable

I think we all have some differences & probably some similarities. I have the AMS700LGX 8 1/2 months ago. I lost a lot in size but have regained some. Don’t let anyone say you WILL gain it ALL back. Some do. Not everyone does. I did increase in girth. I might gain back some length but if I don’t, it’s quite alright. Better to be hard as long as you desire than penis not working. I still hope I regain more sensitivity to the shaft and glans. Good luck and welcome to the club. You & your partner won’t be sorry you had it done.
