Start with your health history-not a product choice

Someone searching for penis enlargement in East London should prepare to discuss more than size. Conditions affecting circulation, blood sugar, healing, sensation or sexual function may change what questions need to be asked and whether another assessment is appropriate.

Write down relevant diagnoses, previous operations or injuries, allergies and any history of unusual bleeding or poor wound healing. The clinic covered here is at 199 Vanessa Street, Buccleuch, Sandton, 2090; it does not have an East London branch.

Bring one complete medicine and supplement list

Include prescription medicines, over-the-counter products, traditional remedies, herbs, vitamins, injections, creams and recreational substances. Record the name, dose, frequency and reason for use where possible.

Information worth highlighting includes:

• Blood-thinning or antiplatelet medicines
• Diabetes and blood-pressure treatment
• Medicines used for erections or sexual performance
• Hormones, bodybuilding products and supplements
• Any previous reaction to a medicine, cream or anaesthetic

Do not stop prescribed medicine for an enlargement consultation unless the clinician who manages it tells you to do so.

Plan the journey from Buffalo City

Travel arrangements vary for residents of East London CBD and nearby communities such as Southernwood, Vincent, Berea, Beacon Bay and Mdantsane. Use current directions from your exact location and check road conditions before departure.

Plan fuel, rest stops, arrival time and the return journey. Save the clinic pin and 064 608 1568, and confirm the appointment before leaving East London. The clinic operates 24/7, but that does not replace appointment confirmation.

Confirm what the consultation fee includes

The consultation costs R2,500. Confirm what the fee covers and whether any health checks, later product, method, monitoring, repeat consultation or follow-up contact would cost extra.

The fee pays for the consultation and does not guarantee a particular size increase. Include transport and accommodation, if needed, in your budget and ask for the full expected cost before agreeing to a later step.

Do not postpone urgent symptoms for a distant appointment

Chest pain, fainting, breathing difficulty, severe pain, rapidly increasing swelling, marked discolouration, loss of sensation, difficulty urinating or a sudden major change in erection function needs prompt local medical assessment.

Do not travel to Buccleuch instead of seeking urgent care nearby. Contact the clinic later after the immediate concern has been addressed.
