Hello, I'm 70 and had a radical prostatectomy 3 years ago which left me incontinent and with ED. I'm cancer free and had an artificial sphincter(AMS800) implanted 2 years ago to take care  of the incontinence. Viagra and Cialis helped with the ED, but wasn't always reliable. On top of all that I also developed Peyronies since the AMS800 surgery with a curve on the left side at the bottom of my penis. My doctor has recommended an implant to correct the curve and ED. He showed me 2 implant types, the 3 piece and the 2 piece. I like the 2 piece since the pump is smaller and I already have another pump in my scrotum to press when I need to piss. My surgery is scheduled for 12/16 and was wondering if any others here have had the 2 piece implanted and are they happy with it?

I'm confused, would this be your first or second implant?  If second, you developed Peyronie's after the first one was installed?

I had an artificial sphincter implanted 2 years ago to address my incontinence which happened as a result from the radical prostatectomy I had done 3 years ago. The Peyronies occurred Over time after the sphincter was implanted. I don't think that caused the Peyronies,but it occurred after. Already having a pump like device in my scrotum and having a second one implanted is what has me concerned. The 3 piece implant squeeze  pump Is bigger than the 2 piece implants. My surgeon favors the 3 piece but says the 2 piece is also a good product and understands my concern about having 2 pumps implanted in the scrotum. I'm looking for  comments from other guys who have had the 2 piece implanted or if anyone has had both a sphincter and penile implant.
