Can streaching decrease girth? Why?

[zenjamin Member Find all posts View Profile Close zenjamin]

Hello.
I have started using an extender. From what I have heard, those who focus on just streaching, inadvertnly gain some girth, and I have not heard of anyone losing girth.
Why is this? I understand traction creates new cells, but it would also make sense that cells might rearrange themselves into a more lengthy shape.

Now, im not sure how to rephrase the next phase of my question.
I am thickest midshaft where it kinda bulges out. However, not so much at the base.
If I extend, I would not want the thickest part to stay right behind the glans and the base stay the same or even decrease. Because this would mean my new length would be keeping the thickest part of my penis away from the vaginal opening, where is generally where the most nerve endings are on a female.


So I would like to generally understand how girth can work in regards to extenders or stretchers. If a certian part of the penis feels the most streach, will that affect girth in that area one way or another, if so, how?



I have a quick extender pro, but am debating on weather or not to use both nooses or just one.
First impression is that using the second noose just restricts blood flow and makes things more uncomfortable. However, if the second noose keep the upper part of the penis unstreached, perhaps it would provide more of a streach at the base of the penis, and thus provide minor girth gains in that area as well?

Is there a way at all to target specific areas in the penis for girth?


PS: And on a completely off topic note, I still cant see my avatar. Can anybody else?

Mate - I used an Extender for two months and saw very good length gains (0.4 inch) but no girth, but 8 weeks is just not long enough to judge anything. But I know they work. I stopped due to developing ulcers (Andropenis programme proved just tooo intense for me - I should have slowed down). I am probably going to start again as I can't seem to do manual stretches - frenulum keeps tearing!! Moral of the story - take it easy!!

Anyway, quite why people gain girth from extending is pretty much anyones guess - no studies have been done to explain it but it does seem that many people are getting increased girth. So just go with it.

My understanding is girth will be proportional with an extender, it will not be more or less at any point along the shaft - but only those that have seen girth increases will be able to really answer that one.

If using a double noose stops the upper shaft from being stretched but keeps the bottom part of the shaft under strain then yes, I believe that girth (and length) will be acheived in this area only. Makes sense geezer. So this could be an option - try it out.

Hanging is your best option for base girth as from what I have read most report quite an increase in this area - with all PE however it isn't guaranteed but it does seem that your chances are very good with hanging. Or perhaps try internal stretches which will pull out more inner penis - never done these my self mind but I think they worksimilar (but less dramatically) to hanging - I think.

Pumping will also give possible girth increases, it will be proportional but atleast the base will also be targeted - which doesn't happen with jelqing.

If base girth is most important start a thread dedicated to base girth or do a search - I am sure there is info out there for you.

Anyway good luck and keep us informed of your progress and problems mate, your pluses will help us and we will help you with your minuses!!

Take care.

I stopped due to developing ulcers

Can you elaborate on that please? Like just open sores or what? Were you using the noose or the strap?...

Hi mate - sure.

Basically after 8 weeks I noticed what seemed to be a very tiny cut along the sulcus (the rim where penis head/shaft meet) and so I stopped using the extender, another what I assumed was a cut appeared a day later. I visited doctors blah blah but was told I had an infection blah blah...long story short I was told they were ulcers a few weeks later - took a while to clear, probably due to wrong diagnosis and given hydrocortisone cream which has no effect on ulcers at all!! The ulcers appeared out of the blue, I thought I'd see something happening before the ulcers appeared but I didn't, just woke up and wham they were there. But the pain I was feeling was the indicator that something wasn't right.

I had started to feel alot of pain around where the noose tightened about 5-6 weeks in but I just kept going due to being told by Andropenis that as long as I take the device of after 1.5 - 2 hrs I will be fine. Bollocks is what I say! I thought that the pain was normal but basically no, my penis was suffering and it was inevitable that something was going to happen.

I should have listened to my body and stopped, took the device down a bit as I was rushing things and was basically having to strap in quite hard to keep my penis stretched - basically I was lengthning the extender faster than my penis was adapting - I made a big mistake but I got excited at my gains. If I had just cooled down I'd have my extra inch by now I just know it (this happened 3 months ago.

I actually don't think that the noose is as scary as people say, you just have to go easy and resist jumping ahead, even when you are comfortable just increase things gradually. The Andropenis does have comfort straps which I found useless - they didn't hold the penis as secure and wore out even faster than the noose.

My advice is simple, use protection better than what I was using (I used two Androrings..look on net for an example of this) and go at a slower pace so you give your penis more time to adapt so you can keep the penis strapped in more gently.

Remember that I was using the Andropenis and their programme calls for extension of the device by 0.5cm every week, I was probably a bit ahead of this which is just insane on my part because the programme itself is intense.

Any other Q's then fire away mate.

Cheers.

The noose isn't scary but it hurts like crap. Maybe if my extender came with some soft material to pad the noose things would have been different but I've since gotten the comfort strap and pad and it's like nothing is on skin contact wise. Plus, I constantly see reviews of the two types and "scientists say" that the strap allows for more blood flow and quicker results. So that kinda buried the use for the noose for me, because I like quick results, heh...

Mate, I am not sure what extender you are using but I am assuming it is the X4 yeah?

The comfort strap and pad thing I am not sure about but just from the little I have seen it is very much different to the comfort strap for the Andro. Either way, very very glad that you are finding it very easy to wear - if you go slowly then there is no reason this will change.

Mate, we all want faster results but again, please please don't rush or at the least just slow down if you start feeling any pain that becomes hard to handle - just not worth it.

As far as noose/strap goes there can be no way at all that either gives faster results, both simply hold the penis in an elongated state, why one would make the penis grow longer faster would make no sense and as for better blood flow, yes within reason it will probably be a bit safer and allow better flow but trust me, if you tighten the comfort strap too tight the same thing will happen and that is a blue/cold and numb glans.

Anyway, good luck, be consistent, get the hours in, be careful and you will get a longer dick mate!

All the best.

More bloodflow increases the effectiveness of all the healing and cell regenerating in your penis as well as everything else in your body. That's their reasoning...

I have been hanging for several months now and have definitely gained girth. My penis used to be bigger near the glans, however, things seem to have evened out. Now when I'm erect my penis is about the same thickness from the base too the glans.
