Jeruble's Progress Thread

I started about 3 weeks ago (September 13 to be exact).

I primarily have just used my x4 labs extender, and have recently began some warm up, stretching routines. I only have 56.75 hours on my extender so far. Usually I can only where the thing in between 2 - 4 hours.

I don't think I understand how to measure properly yet, so I'll try to explain as best I can where I started and where I'm at right now.

I measured my erect penis (looking down on it) with a tape measure from the where my penis meets my body to the tip of my penis. I started at 6" even. Today I measured 6 1/4" initially, but I then measured closer to 6 3/16", so I'll just play it safe and say I'm at 6 1/8".
For girth, I started at 5.25" erect. I still am at 5.25". Nothing different there yet.
For the curvature I'm trying to help correct (highest priority), I have a 30 degree bend to the left. Haven't had a chance yet to measure that again, but I'm pretty sure it's close to 30 still.

Questions:
1) Are there any tips for using an extender if you're uncut like I am? I can only use the silicone noose without the foam to get my extender to stay on properly
2) The couple times I have tried to jelq, I get erect after only a couple reps. Is there a safe way for me to do jelqs erect yet since I'm beginning or no?

Good luck. I'm interested to see the gains from the X4 Labs Extender. I'll stay tuned.

As for how to measure, refer to this site and this site. It says to hold a ruler along the top, pressed lightly into the pelvic bone.

Thanks for the links. So in my case would it be best to use a string to measure since of my curve. And if I'm pressing all the way to my pelvic bone, I will need to increase my measurements..

November update:

I have ~ 138 hours on my extender now. I only have incorporated some stretching and kegal exercises in addition to the extender. I plan on adding a jelqing routing eventually... just not enough time right now.
Started: BPEL ~ *6.4375" , EG 5.25", 30 degree bend to the left
October: BPEL 6.5625", EG 5.25", 30 degree bend to the left
November: BPEL 6.625", EG 5.375", 28 degree bend to the left

Things look sort of hopeful? lol
Side notes: I have noticed that my foreskin has become looser. I also have noticed that it is harder for me to give myself an erection, but my erections are still just as good with my wife.
I also am still looking for some silicon strips I can use for padding.

(*I originally just measured my erection length 6" from the surface, but I guess that is not the best way to do it. I added 7/16" to my original measurement by comparing my original measuring technique to a BPEL)

December Update!

I am at 223 hours now. My measurements are exactly the same as they were in November:
BPEL 6.625", EG 5.375", 28 degree bend to the left.

I think my main obstacle now will be trying to increase the tension a little. After a few minutes of wearing the extender the tension loosens considerably. It is also still difficult to get the right amount of tightness when initially putting on the device without cutting off circulation or making it too loose that it just slips out. But I usually make an adjustment after a few minutes of wearing the device and that seems to do the trick for the most part.
