I have read this thread and re read it. This Post may be long, so bear with me, please. First, there are several who have posted, you can read their posts, that make blanket statements that PE does not work. Then there are those that make statements about pumping etc. and often are blanket statements about them not working either. Nothing works if you just do it a few times. Weight lifting won't work or increase your biceps if you lift weight for a week. But if you do it for years, you will bulk up.
I have to tell you this fact...truth...about me. I had a urologist go after a kidney stone in 1998 and he inserted a tube in my penis going up to the bladder and in do doing broke a part of one of the chambers in my penile shaft. First of all it gave me a 90 degree bend mid shaft and a 45 degree bend right behind the glans. Painful...yes. To the point that I could not even urinate without severe pain. This condition is called Peyronies disease. It is something that can happen to any man if he bends his penis or has an accident with his penis. Mine happened because of a Urologist.
I looked at myself the next day and I was a freak. I was deformed. I was horrified. Getting an erection was extremely painful. I did not go back to that doctor, didn't want to ever see him again and I have not. I searched the internet to see what happened. I read everything day and night to find out what to do. AND, most sites told me there was nothing to do....you have it live with it. No, I said, i won't. I was too active a sexual person to roll over and quit. I grabbed my penis (now this is the first day after this happened) and began to pull it straight. Hurt like fire doing it. I read about a vacuum tube and even called Dr. Kaplan who advertises a lot about vacuum tubes and asked him personally what to do. I bought a penis pump and a tube, got too big of a one first time. Because I had too big of a one, I could not get a good stretch. I ordered a tube from Vacutech and they were also very helpful in getting me what I needed. I had a goal of stretching this penis of mine until it was straight. AND, to some degree I did. I would do it several times a day. Pumping at low pressure, but I was impatient so I upped the pressure. A good pressure is 4 to 5 pounds, but I would go up and up. The smaller tube allowed me to suck that penis straight or straighter than it was and I held it there for several sessions. I would do about three at a time of 20 minutes. Sure, pumping bloats your penis and sucks fluid into it but it also does something else, it stretches the skin for a greater girth size. It is like a balloon...you blow up a balloon and it is small, you blow it up and let the air out and it is now bigger than it was and you do it over and over and it never goes back to the size it was. But I digress...
So I did the pumping and that helped some...I needed more help. I contacted everyone I could and some men on some of these PE sights were willing to help me. Two were very helpful, DLD on MOS and BIB on his "hanging" site. Both have a heart for this subject. I am not promoting either, I am just saying they helped me a lot.
Jelqing was the most helpful, pushing blood into the penis to help heal and in so doing stretch and stretch the tissue. In my case there was a hard, crust like deposit that came and had to be massaged out and worked out and eventually the blood flow moved it away. THEN, there was also the scar tissue that was there that was made when the damage occurred and I had to work that and stretch that and I am still working on that. It is much smaller and does not hurt now, but still there.
It took two years of working to get this penis of mine straight again so it was functional. Now, during all that time, I never told my wife or never told anyone of my plight other than those who I sought help. I did that very discretely. I finally told someone and begin to seek help. I finally after all this time, two years, told my wife and she of course wondered and was in the dark about what was wrong with me and her. She has been very supportive of all this after she knew.
I have since been to many doctors and have been in touch with many so called Peyronies Experts. None of which, by the way, approve of my methods.
Jelging was first, then I did some hanging and more jelqing and more hanging and then some other things that I can tell you if you want to know.
I began after the peyrones, with a less than 5 inch penis flaccid. I do have some pictures of the peyronies damaged penis but like was posted, you don't think about before pics until after you begin to see some results. I still have more curve than I would like, but flaccid I hang 6 inches now. I measured it just a bit ago. I am a tad under 8 inches erect.
When someone has done PE, you can almost always tell be because the base of their shaft is thick and uniform. The pulling seems to pull out from the base. Now, I know there are those who say you can't stretch the penis to make it grow, but you can. There are some factors that need to be said when I say this. THERE is a tough, fibrous cord in the center of your penile shaft called a Septum. It is like a "guitar string" and is very, very tough. If someone would learn how to stretch that they would have the answer to all this. But it seems you can stretch it when it is flaccid. THE minute you let it know you are there, it has a reflex action that "seems to defend" itself and it is there for protection and won't give. I mean, it won't give. THAT is what is keeping you from having a Noodle for a penis. BUT, it seems you can quietly and gently and I mean very gently with little pressure, pull and pull very gently and you will be surprised how far it will stretch. Yes, there is a very true fact without question that penile size is often genetic. I wish I had more genetic disposition. But, I have made up for what I didn't get. I keep working and have increased girth to over 6 inches and have a huge glans as a result of all this.
For those who wonder...about foreskin restoration. I am cut, however I did have more skin than some with my circ. I have a full frenulum and when I was pumping, you get what they call (pumpers) a donut...it is a filling with fluid about the area of the foreskin. Well, I sure got that, mostly because I used too much pressure. So, after all this pumping, here is all this stretched skin. I have a full coverage now, and it was not what I wanted. I had to learn how to handle and work with a foreskin. I had to learn how to clean it, as I now have smegma which I had heard of but never before had, so I learned how to take care of that. From a former "cut" man to now an "uncut" man, it is definitely different.
I am very thankful for all that I have learned in this adventure. I have probably helped 50 or 60 others who have gone through the same thing. I have also helped some who inquired of me about PE and as a result, they are bigger and have stronger erections. One person posted that jelqing does give you stronger erections. I think...and my opinion...that many men in older years get lazy in their penis. They let it deteriorate because they don't use it. Maybe it is true, if you don't use it you will lose it.
I could tell what I do on a daily basis to keep growing. OH, one more thing, the surgery that many do in cutting the suspension muscle can be done manually by stretching the suspension muscle with PE. I am sure that is where much of this growth comes from. I don't mean to be "racist" here but white men have a higher exit point with their penis than black men. White men have a penis that comes out and up and if you stretch that muscle over a period of time, and pull down and down, you will get length. Black men on an average come out differently. Feel where you penis comes out from behind your balls and how it comes up if you are white. If you stretch that muscle or ligament you will have a longer usable penis. ANOTHER thing...for every 30 pounds of extra weight you have, you have almost an inch of un-useable penis.
I told you this would be long...sorry. Hope it was a good read. Thanks for listening.
