Hello,

Thanks for posting your query.

You would not have any problems using it.

Penile prosthesis are of two types.

1. Malleable - Malleable is of two types - One is Acu form and the other is mentor malleable.
2. Inflatable - Inflatable is of three types. They are one piece , two piece and three piece.

Multi-component inflatable penile prosthesis is preferred to malleable variety. High levels of patient satisfaction are seen with inflatable.

Hope I have answered your query. Should you have any more queries, I will be available to answer them.

Wishing you good health.

Regards
