As of this Friday I will be 12 weeks post-op! I started massaging all of my scars with lotion and wearing silicone strips on my groin and penis scars around October 18th. I’m hesitant to use silicone strips on my back because I still have some internal stitches poking out (they’re clear, so they’re not visible in the photos). I’m worried the silicone could somehow mess with them(?) I’ll ask my surgeon about it soon. I’ve gotten some widening, but overall I’m pretty happy with how everything is settling. The dent in my lat is hardly noticeable, and definitely not noticeable in clothes.
When I first woke up from surgery my left nipple was totally displaced because of how tight my skin had to be pulled for closure. Since then, it’s slowly come back to its original place. I have some stretch marks around my nipple because of it. I’m not too concerned about them. I’ve just been putting lotion on the whole area when I’m finished massaging my scar and otherwise I don’t think of them.
No tactile sensation so far. I believe I do have some erogenous sensation though, interestingly. Touching my penis during masturbation and especially during sex is more pleasurable than not, so that’s something at least. My partner and I tried penetrative sex for the first time Nov 29th, to little success. It was the first time either of us had any kind of penetrative sex, so apart from the regular set of kinks to work out, I was too big for him.
I measured today and I’m about 8” x 6.25” (20cm x 16cm) while hanging, but I scrunch quite a bit while sitting down. (For reference: I'm about the width of the rim of a soda can) My ideal was somewhere around 5”-5.5” in length. After weighing whether I’d like to be under or over my ideal, I talked to my surgeon about aiming for an initial length of 5.5”-6”, in case I had shrinking. I have the complete opposite problem now!! My graft was 6” off my back, which stretched to 7” on my groin, and now after healing has stretched to 8”. Even though I wanted to only be slightly over average, being well over average isn’t as bad as I thought it would be. However, I’m definitely planning on some debulking and reducing the length. I think something like 6” x 4” would be good. My partner protested reducing the length to 6” or lower, but he’s not the one that has to live with a dick that’s too long for underwear lol.
