I had prostate cancer a few years ago. A year later I got a penile implant. You can't tell I have it from looking but it does make me much more of a shower that grower. It makes me self-conscious because I'm afraid people will think I have a bit of an erection all the time. It's still mostly flaccid and points down but a lot fuller than I'm used to.
Has anyone else experienced this? I'm probably over thinking but I don't want to appear like a creep.

I am going through something similar at the moment. I felt defective and didn't want to go nude and even deleted my account on here. I'm not out of the woods yet if it is cancer or going in for surgery to have it either reduced or removed. I just take it day by day and have come back around to accepting that.
