Well,
I'm coming up on 2 years since I started my foreskin restoration and ya know, I'm pretty satisfied with the results.
I started in Feb 08 with the DTR. Dayum, getting that bad boy on with my COMPLETE lack of foreskin was a real pain, let me tell you. I struggled with it, sometimes for 15-20 minutes just to get it on, but it got better with time. But I kept with it and kept it on for the vast majority of every day. At first the progress seemed great, but then it leveled off.
About 8 months ago I bought a PUD and love that thing. I've used that thing as consistently as humanly possible and even put a foam 'ring' around the lip of the cup to make my new foreskin stretch over my glans naturally without quite so much compression. I wear it all day every day when humanly possible and some times even at night. The foam ring really makes it much more comfortable.
Well, now I have a foreskin. It's not enough for coverage when I'm hard, but danged is it nice to have a complete foreskin all the rest of the time. I've got coverage that's so complete that the tip is quite puckered over the end of the glans. Even when I go to the gym, the head is completely covered all the time. The only time I don't have coverage is when I wake up in the morning because the nighttime erection pulled the skin back and it won't roll forward all on its own. But then I roll it forward and I'm good to go for the rest of the day.
I know that this will gross some of you out, but I even now have occasional traces of smegma - I've never had that before in my entire life. Of course I clean before intimate contact but I don't go scrubbing the stuff off thinking it's gross. It seems to be a great natural moisturizer and my newly covered glans is indeed softer and more comfortable in its new sheath.
Sooo, I'll continue with the restoration for a bit more, but then I'm done. It's been a long road, but I'm SO danged happy with the results. If you're trying it, keep at it dudes, you'll get there!
Be well
