Pumping DOES work

[lordoftorture Member Find all posts View Profile Close lordoftorture]

Hi Guys,
Been using bathmate since January. I started at 13cm MEG (5.1 inch) and got to 15.2cm (6 inch) with good EQ.
EQ is still a problem for me and I dont have it consistant. But even at my worst I measure 14.7cm.
Has BM worsened my EQ? I dont think so, I think I just got used to the viagra.
One major side effect is that part of my skin darkened significantly. Most of my growth is on the underside and there it is visible. See pic in album.
Other than that device is VERY easy to use. Everyday under the shower - 15 to 20 min. I go in soft. Tried to get hard few times - dont see difference and dont see a point of wasting viagra.
I managed to take a picture and it is in my profile.

Congrats on those gains. Thats a big achievement in under a year!

Congratulations on your gains! Have you considered spending some time focusing on stamina only for awhile to resolve your deficiency? A higher level of EQ should accelerate your size gains as well

Good sir I believe you mean "penile photographs."

Excellent gains BTW. Interested to see what gains can be made just with BM.

Big Al is absolutely right about the correlation between improved EQ and additional gains. If you can work on that, you will have even more impressive gains.

BTW, can you share with all of us what kind of pressure you were using when in the cylinder? Were you pumping gently and using low pressure over the 15-20 minutes, or did you pump to max pressure each session.
Also did you pump every day...or take regular breaks since January?

First I apologize for the picture. I will reupload it to the album so anyone can see it there.
As for routine, it is as follows: I get in soft after few manual stretches. Pump a little, wait for my penis to increase, pump, wait, pump, repeat until the point I can pump no more and penis is filling the tube. I would say this is maximal pressure each session for the last 4-5 min. I did not take days off, but I got sick two times, 21 days, then 7 week and I traveled another week. So I had forced breaks. I was also on blood thinners for 2 months and I think that helped too.
I am quite sure Al is right I saw it myself as three months ago I started my cycle of anabolics and my last growth happened in two months along with good sex and several impressive erections. Problem is my libido is wasting away for many years. Anabolics first reversed that but then it came back. No sexual fantasies, no dreams, no erection without viagra and a woman I like. Porn does nothing for me. I cannot masturbate. Last time I did was almost an year ago.

Thanks for the mention!

Have you had your hormone levels checked recently?

[lordoftorture Member Find all posts View Profile Close lordoftorture]

I get them checked frequently as I take steroids in cycles. Right now testosterone is several times the normal maximum and estrogen is normal. When I am not cycling I take clomiphene citrate and my "natural" test level is upper range and my extrogen is again normal, so is prolactin and all blood panel. I suspect my problem is somewhere in the brain, dopamine or some neurotransmitters. I tend to get maniacally obsessed with certain problems until I get a solution. This is something I will get to in a time.
One more thing to mention, I got the pump foolishly thinking it would help me get erections without pills. Idea was pump, put a ring on it and use. Of course it did not work like that, but I likes the feeling and first time I managed to pump good my pen. was swole as f*ck. So I kept going.
Big Al, thanks for your imput. I would be greatful if you take a look at my picture and give your opinion on how can I resolved the "tan lines".

Glad to help

If you're very stressed (esp. about performance) it could be dopamine and/or anxiety. If this is the case are you attempting to mitigate?

I'm not seeing a picture in your album?

[lordoftorture Member Find all posts View Profile Close lordoftorture]

I tried several times to upload and it does not work. I will send you PM if you dont mind.
Strange thing is that stress helps me. When I am with a new girl I perform best. Good erection and I can go on for hours without climax. I also supplement viagra with red bul and it helps too. Adrenaline helps me. Feeling relaxed makes me uninterested in sex.

Have you tried a Vitamin B-5 cream? You'll have to test it on a small portion of your penis first, but if the discoloration is due to hemosiderin deposits this should work.

I have similar routine as in focusing on stretching and bathmate. I had some great results and looking to do it more regular! Def works!

[e1169801 Junior Member Find all posts View Profile Close e1169801]

My goal is girth right now, with the goal of 6" also.

I've always avoided pumping in fear of stretching foreskin and the gains being temp? Any thoughts on that?

Have you ever taken Accutane or Propecia? Those two drugs can cause scary long-term low libido.
