The BP rep won't be back for a few days, so I'll reply instead. The suggestions for purchasing a new pump are the measures BELOW the "room to grow" indicators. At your size, you may be able to get away with ordering an X40/Hydro9.
This would be my suggestion too.

Thanks for the suggestion. I received it and tried it a few times. Definitely the right size I think.

Had a quick question I wanted to run by you guys. I’m following the program you recommend and I’ve run into a bit of an issue. I’m doing manual stretching with jelqs at the end 3 days a week. Since getting the pump I’ve been trying to pump after on my cooldown as recommended. I’m finding however that my penis is tired during the cooldown so it doesn’t maintain erection inside the pump. I tried it a few times and same issue.
The past couple times I used it however, I did it on my off day and I had no issues (still at 6 min).
But is that too much since that would be considered no rest days?
Overall it looks like this:

Stretching/jelqs
Pump in shower
Stretch/jelqs
Pump
Stretch/jelqs
Pump
Break

Thanks in advance.

To be honest I don’t think I have actually achieved a full erection in the chamber while pumping. I will go in at 50% maybe but when done it’s never been rock hard.
I think the goal is to have him expand more than normal in a semi flaccid state? I did go in once at 80% erection and was almost too much for me. Much more red dots after the fact.

See what happens if you pump before your jelqing. You may get a better session from your jelqs by doing this.

You are pumping with too much time or pressure if you're getting lots of red dots going in with an erection.

Agreed 100% which I why I don’t do that anymore. I go I with max 50% and let it enlarge in the pump. Now very very few tiny dots which go away within 12 hrs.

As long as you are doing what works and are not getting hurt then this is a positive move.

I recently started PE again after a layoff including very light pressure Bathmate sessions. After each session I get two dark bruises in the same place on my penis. I wait until they are completely gone, but next session they reappear. The exact same place and shape.

Any idea what these are?

They are not painful and don't interfere with being able to get erect. But they look awful. I treat them with arnica gel and triple antibiotic ointment and appear completely gone before pumping again and returning.

Thank you.

Where on you seeing these bruises, specifically; and how extensive are they? How long are you pumping for?

The larger bruise is just under my glans and sort of to the right of it. The other one is smaller, a little bit down from that one on the top of my shaft. This is from a single 5 minute session at low pressure. About 1" less than the max I can pump as measured by the gauge on the cylinder.

I wait until they appear completely gone, maybe a week or so, then try to pump again and they reappear with that one 5 minute session. It's very odd.

If you're pumping at low pressure and still getting bruises, then either you're still using too much pressure or you might be doing something unwittingly- like kegeling in the pump. You might try using less time- even as brief as 60 seconds under very low pressure to see what the effect is.

By chance are these bruised areas coming in contact with the cylinder wall?

This is a good question and could be why he is getting bruises. If any part of your penis comes in contact with the inside of the cylinder then that portion of the penis should be lubed to make sure there is no sticking.

Hmm no I don't believe it is from contact with the wall or kegeling in the pump, which I have not done. I think I am going to take at least a month off from pumping, maybe even 2 months, before trying it again. Maybe I did overpump recently another time and it still hasn't fully healed even though I see no visible physical signs of anything.

I am appreciative of everyone's time and feedback on this. :)

Bruising should go away within a week I would think. Just try low pressure and see how you react. Sometimes releasing the valve quickly while under higher pressure can have that affect (so I have heard anyway)!

I received my first pump, Hydromax7, late last week and have been struggling to avoid making cylinder contact and getting loose skin sucked up. Today, I discovered if I use a loose fitting rubber ring around my testicles and apply the comfort ring over my shaft, to position everything, before applying the cylinder, then it's way more comfortable. Are there any known possible issues with doing either of these things?
