[QUOTE="Cataceous, post: 251987, member: 38109"] I was 60 and they still did my BHR. The manufacturer [URL='https://rediscoveryourgo.com/bhr-homepage/birmingham-hip-resurfacing/']mentions[/URL] that implant "survivorship for men under the age of 65 is comparable to - and in many cases, better than - standard total hip replacements after ten years of use." I expect doctors evaluate on a case-by-case basis whether the implant is appropriate, and won't necessarily view age alone as disqualifying. Metallosis [URL='https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33433099/']doesn't seem to be a big problem[/URL] with the Birmingham implant—as long as it's put in correctly. Other metal-on-metal (MoM) implants with poor designs have done far worse and have tarnished the technology as a result. There are newer resurfacing implants using different materials, but these might not be available yet. There are posts about my experience in the thread I linked to above: [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.excelmale.com/forum/threads/hip-replacement-surgery-experiences.25596/post-227602[/URL] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.excelmale.com/forum/threads/hip-replacement-surgery-experiences.25596/post-231883[/URL] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.excelmale.com/forum/threads/hip-replacement-surgery-experiences.25596/post-237963[/URL] By the way, I spent a lot of money on Regenxx stem cell treatments, but they didn't stop the one hip from progressing to bone-on-bone. I had four other joints done too. It's possible they are better off than without, but that is uncertain. [/QUOTE]
