How many miles do you get out of a Gel saddle?

[Louis]

I think my Selle Italia Prolink Gel Flow has gone bad. I’m getting a pain in my right sit-bone area and when I compare the left side of the saddle to the right side the right side is much softer. Also, both sides are much softer than new saddle I have on another bike.

I weigh about 180 lbs and have about 3900 miles on the saddle.

How many miles have you gotten from Gel saddles?

(Aside: Maybe I should consider switching to a non-gel, but I have no idea how I would go about choosing an alternative.)

TIA
