Still feel alot of pain during sex under glan's... The implant has gotten softer after almost 4 month's. But the pain under glan's is a major issue for me and I'm considering having it removed.

It got better in time but was always there.The implant is placed right near the start of the glans so it always rubs against the sexual nerves in that area. After Removal, there is some pain but it is a lot less than when the implant was in,but there is still pain when having sex.

In my case, the best thing was to have it removed to reduce any further nerve damage in the glans and the penile shaft. After Removal, The implant has caused Peyronie's curvature and has caused an early case of ED.

I hope you will make the right decision, I know it is not easy. I'll try to come back here more often to see how you are doing. Messagman is a great source of support as you already found out...

Good luck....

I have seen significant improvement in sensation over the past month. Thankfully sex is good again. The implant is still very obvious and I'm curious to see how it heals. I've said that I will give myself a year and then decide to keep it or have it removed. Kind of like a science project to see what happens. Lol. (And barrage of negative comments ensues...)

I am not a Dr, but from the little that I know, removing it ASAP will minimize the damage to your shaft. I had mine for about a year back in 2010 or so (trying to forget) and till today I still have pains near the glans.

The "lack" of shaft sensation will increase as the silicon implant rubs and damages shaft nerves and tissue. The body will surround the implant with hard scar tissue, elist calls it "capsule" to misguide his victims. This scar tissue will further dull the shaft sensation and increase damage wherever the implant is in touch with the shaft.

I am not trying to scare you, I am telling what I "think" is happening.

It is my "unmedical" opinion that the sooner it is removed the less permanent damage it will cause.

My Peyronie's curvature has not improved in over 8 years due to scar tissue that was never removed by elist even though he promised me to do so!

I still have lack of sensation on top of the shaft and pain when having sex.


If you read my thread and other's on this site and Thunderplace, you will see a common experience by all who had it and then removed it. Some may fair better or worse than others.

The elist silicon implant is simply a "failure by design, a disaster by surgeon and a let down by the medical and legal systems"

If I could travel back in time, I'd not do anything to my natural penis!
