VED has lost its vacuum: Suggestions please?

Posted by tattodice @tattodice, Sep 12 4:35pm

After my surgery my urologist kindly gave me a Soma Therapy VED. I am now seven months post surgery and had been using it nearly daily as directed for rehab It worked effectively. In the the last couple weeks it has struggled to achieve a vacuum when I pump. A new one costs 200.00 Any suggestions? Has anybody else resolved this problem?

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Prostate Cancer Support Group.

Have you contacted the manufacturer?

You might need to do some manscaping. The seal against the skin has to be pretty tight.

Check ✔️ Always shaven. Not a problem here. But thanks!

If you only use it for rehab, probably most any brand will do. I bought something inexpensive through Amazon or eBay and only use it after daily showers, not for intercourse. Hopefully, you'll have a warranty solution.

I bought one from Timm Medical and they replaced the pump, no questions asked.

Look on Ali Express. You can get the same quality pump for $50.
