New PEGym member (formerly pierced)

**Northlander** · 01-09-2018

Hey y’all,
I stumbled across the Gym and Thunders Place years ago, I always wanted to try it, but I was afraid of what pumping could do to a piercing. It was a fun ride, the wife really enjoyed at first but I kept stretching up to a 0 gauge PA and that was the limit for me! Lol… I practically felt like I was bruising my wife from the inside! Anyways, long story short. A visit to a local urologist, a few stitches later and months of recovery and here I am now with a scar as a reminder of my metal days.

I’ve read so much about pumping, JP90 routine, etc. My only real concern is the residual fistula I have underneath my scar. I apply Vitamin E religiously to help with restoring skin around the scar and I can tell that tough knot of skin underneath is slowly fading away, but I can still feel it there protruding out a little right below the scar.

I have a LeLuv Vacuum Pump Maxi blue w/ gauge on the way (Great prices on amazon!)

My goal is to see what I can do in a year! Anyone know of any mobile apps for tracking measurements?

Thanks y’all, I’m so happy to be here!

Hey what's up man? I actually have a PA right now. I used to pump but I found that it didn't do anything for me. That was also before I was pierced. I got pierced last may and have stretch to 8g. I don't think I will go any bigger. Anyway I am doing the JP90 to make sure that I don't cause any unwanted injuries aswell.

You guys couldn't have gone for more modest piercings like a couple of frenum piercings that wouldn't migrate and cause problems.

Hey, congrats on the PA!

My only concern was having that large of an opening and how that would react from pumping. Frankly, it gave me nightmares! Heh.

Also, after 10+ years with the PA, it was time to retire it and focus on PE.

I first tried an extender many years ago, around 2001 and it didn’t do anything but cause pain. It also lacked any real documentation at the time. After reading the blogs on here I have a better understanding of what to do and what to look for.
