Why Edging Works

[Danner]

I wish my routine was just EDGING that would be awesome.

Ricky189: you could always try it (pumping + edging) & see if it works for you.

Fantastic, Blink

Thank you!

Does anyone know if there are other theories on why edging works? I was expecting to post this & find out that there was another explanation out there. Thank all of you for so much positive feedback (& rep too). It's a pleasant surprise.

blink2000, superb article, I like that you back your wealth of information with sources! I do have a question regarding edging, however. If edging is as you say, a way to "induce your own Megalophallus", then does a prolonged edging session put one at risk for impotence?

In cases of Mega ,erections last days this is apperently what causes problems, Some drugs can also cause this.
As I understand it up to 3 hours is quite safe.

i have done this and it did work, however I think it works better in conjunction with other pe techniques.

I have also heard that edging has diminishing returns. Edging alone does work, but you have to keep going longer & longer until it becomes a bit impractical.

Yes blink, which is one reason it is best used with other methods.

To some extent, edging is it's own reward. I bet some people would do it even if there were no gains...

I added a link to edging 101 (at the bottom under helpful links), if there are any other important related articles, feel free to post here or PM me (.e.g. if we have an official MMO thread, or whatever, anything related.. )

Nice post Blink. This actually gives me a reason to edge. I usually want to masturbate after PE'ing, but now I will just edge for about 20 minutes or so if I can.

I believe edging stimulates DHT, Testosterone and other chemicals in the penis and body. i ballooned for 3 hours once.....it was incredible.

 

[nikos]

what is more effective for last longer?edging or ballooning?

 

[blink2000]

I'm not sure if you can contrast those two techniques that way. I suggest asking Kingpole on the edging 101 thread.

 

[AverageGuy22]

I had sex with my wife for four hours last night. Does that count as edging?

 

[blink2000]

My best answer is: ask Kingpole

I suggest you read up on edging first & then you can make your own assessment. Edging 101 is listed at the bottom of the article under "useful links". I can't answer your question because I honestly don't know

Edging has not the same effect as priapism if it's not done for more than 4 hours and doesn't trap the blood in the penis, making the whole affair traumatically painful. From the descriptions of each I've read, there are orders of magnitude between the two.

Not that I want to be negative, I just think the chances are slim!

This is the only medical phenomena I know of that is remotely comparable to edging. If you have a better explanation for why / how edging works, I'm interested in hearing it.

let me put it this way: I think that clamping or using a cock ring, as well as pumping with a powerful pump like bathmate, works to increase penis size permanently -- or at least long enough each day that it is as good as permanent if you do it every day. Definitely, that is the priapism effect. Yesterday I did clamping for one and a half hours all in all, with ten minute segments here and there that focused on enlarging the glans especially. At that point, when you have got so much blood trapped and then go on to squeeze it into your glans and hold it there, it gets painful really quickly, simply because of the pressure and the sensibility of the glans' tissue.

I am not much of a fan of edging for PE purposes because I think it is too weak to work.

Note aside, I once took medicine that had priapism as a side effect, in less than 1% of all cases. I knew about the condition beforehand and thought it was quite cool if it wouldn't be painful. Then I really studied it and was deathly afraid to take that stupid pill! I don't wanna show a doctor my massive, veiny hardon just for him to prick it with a needle and watch it deflate. What the hell, man.

What the hell, man.

Edging is observed to work.
