[QUOTE="Nelson Vergel, post: 29950, member: 3"] [b][URL="http://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/856172?src=wnl_edit_tpal#vp_1"]Most Men Satisfied With Penile Implants[/URL][/b] Men who undergo penile prosthesis implantation report sexual, psychological, and relational benefits, according to a small survey from Portugal. Penile prosthesis implantation (PPI) is a common surgical treatment for men whose erectile dysfunction (ED) does not respond adequately to first- and second-line therapies. Dr. Ana Carvalheira from University Institute in Lisbon and colleagues used a structured telephone interview to analyze the level of satisfaction and the reasons for satisfaction and dissatisfaction with PPI in 47 men with ED who underwent 53 PPI surgeries between 2003 and 2012. Most men were "very satisfied" (62%) or "satisfied" (17%) with their PPI, while seven were "somewhat dissatisfied" (4%) or "very dissatisfied" (11%), the researchers report in the Journal of Sexual Medicine, online December 7. Men cited as reasons for their satisfaction improvement of erectile function, sexual satisfaction, and achievement of vaginal penetration; enhanced self-esteem, confidence, and self-image; and improved relationships and giving pleasure to the partner. A few cited improvement of urinary function. Those who expressed dissatisfaction reported decreased penile size, unrealized expectations, not having sexual relations, artificial/not natural, delayed ejaculation, device malfunction, and partner-related reasons as important factors in their dissatisfaction. Most men (68%) accepted surgery as soon as their doctors proposed it, while others waited for a month (15%), a year (6%), between one and three years (6%), or more than three years (4%) before having their PPI. One in five (19%) did not inform their partner they were having surgery, and 9% of informed partners did not support the decision to have surgery. [/QUOTE]
