Episode 5: The First Month
What they don’t tell you after penile implant surgery: you wake up 100% inflated — and stay that way for five days. You go home like that, bruised, swollen, and trying to navigate your life with a fully erect penis until your surgeon deflates you. Then the real adjustment begins.
This episode walks through the physical and emotional reality of the first month: pain management, urination challenges, concealment, learning to cycle the device, and coming to terms with a body that’s forever changed. It’s raw, real, and exactly what most men aren’t prepared for.
