I have just started on this journey myself … still working on the right dose … it's not bad at all I use an auto injector because of my partners hands shaking and my broken hand plus a stroke last year has given me limits. It's a tiny needle you don't even feel for the most part in the shaft of the penis.Believe me if you have ever zipped him up in your zipper that pain is a 100 times worse.

I tried all the pills, which failed, and because I wanted a more natural erection I tried the injections although originally thinking “no way will I stick a needle in my penis”
but I didn't even feel it. When I did feel it, it was very insignificant.
To me injections are more appealing than pumping something up. Another reason I chose against an implant, no more natural erections.
I know a member here on Connect who has one, hopefully he will join the discussion.
My only complaint about injections is the cost.
I have read implants had the highest satisfaction rating among men with erectile dysfunction.
Take care,
Jake
Well just returned from visit with urologist … in the course of conversation was told if your a "grower" and not a shower … meaning if your small flacid but enlarge to a decent size when erect … if you do an implant you will not be near as large as u will be normally … most men I was told are disappointed .. if you grasp your penis by the head and pull it out … whatever you see like that is about the length you are going to get ..

Thank you Jake for your information and recommendations. I am going to deal. I will try the injection as a precursor to the implant. I still have not heard to he cost yet. I do have Medicare and I am 73 years, so penile implant should be an acceptable end remedy that Medicare can approve.
Shots can be expensive since they have to be blended at a compounding pharmacy ..mine are 85.00 to 120.00 a bottle depending on the mix good for about a month and about 16 injections depending on the dose you are using ..can use the needle every other day … Go on YouTube and look at the different surgeries on penile implants that is what I do before I make any major choices .. if your diabetic will make a difference which implant they will be willing to use so I was told ..they like to use the mallable one since the infection rate is lower in diabetics ..

I have a pump implant, 1st year anniversary. I wish I had done it years ago.
Between medicare and my supplemental insurance, it didn't cost me a penny. It is reliable, anytime, anywhere 24/7. I am the same size erect, but much larger flacid. I have no noticeable loss of sensitivity and I have my confidence, self-esteem, masculinity etc. etc back.

Have you tried the penile shots yet? Many have good luck with them and many Doctors recommend going that route first.

4 ReactionsI appreciate the recommendation, however, injecting a solution in my penis prior to sexual intercourse is not very appealing to me.
