Hey pegym, so I'm sure this is a hard question to answer as some people get gains faster than others and climate change could affect measurements by a bit depending on where you live, but I've been measuring once per week.

The reason I'm asking what a good measurement frequency would be is because I read if you aren't gaining size, then you should up your routine (whether it be more reps, more force, or a bigger routine with more exercises). The thing is I don't want to read into this too early and start to overwork my penis which can cause the same effect (no gains). I have barely gained 1/8 of an inch in the last 2 weeks and I'm not sure if that is slow or if I'm expecting too much and I should hold off on a routine change for a longer period of time.

I realize this is potentially impossible to answer due to variance in genetics etc, but any information on this would be great even if it isn't regarding answering my specific question. I have read the indicators thread for positive, negative, and neutral signs but I've found both positive and negative indicators which has left me a little confused.

Thanks in advance to anyone who took the time to read this and/or has positive feedback. :)

Measure more (or less) often only if it helps motivate you. I measure all the time, obsessively,
always have, always will. It keeps me motivated.

As far as changing your routine, I kept at a progressive jelqing routine, adding five more minutes
at the end of each week, for three months, with absolutely no gains. Then I added a half hour of
stretches, which obviously SHOCKED my cock into gaining--about the middle of my fourth month.

There are just so many variables that we know nothing about. So much of penis enlargement/enhancement
is trial and error.

I hope this is helpful.

The motivation aspect of measuring is a very good point, and yea stretching seems to be quite effective in terms of gaining length. I guess I'm looking to see what everyone has done with a result of no gains after 2 weeks, if it would be wise to increase the routine or not. Thanks for the post though it was helpful.

Two weeks is MUCH too soon to consider switching routines. Two months maybe--three months or longer is more realistic.

Yeah, I'd say measure every month, and change a routine after 3 months. PE takes time!

I've tried measuring weekly, and it kind of works for me, I've gotten sad, angered, euphoric and depressed from the measurements but oh we'll, fuck it! ( sorry 'bout that), if you feel you are growing then measure yourself and keep feeding coal to your motivation, of you don't measure any changes after one month of exercising then come to us, we'll help you.

Cheers

I'll switch to a harder routine if I still dont see any progress in the next two months.
Thx for your post!

An inch and 1/2 deeper than before
I almost never measure, i know I am going to do my routine regardless of what the tape says so I measure when I look at my dinky and if it looks like I should I do. I have gone almost 6 months with out measuring and I didnt miss it.

Thanks for all your responses, I'm going to stick with what I'm doing for another month then and if I see no gains I'll ask for advice or change up the routine, even 1/8 inch in length after a month would be awesome.
