So i have been wondering

lets say there are two versions of me...

One pumps everyday in the bathmate for 20mins with a erection for 6 months.
One pumps everyday in the bathmate for 20mins with a flaccid for 6 months.

Which one is most likely to make better gains?

Also my length does not increase after my bathmate sessions is that normal?
My girth does increase for a temporary amount of time but goes back to normal after like an hour max...

I am on my 6th day of using the bathmate if that helps

Erect pumping is much more effective.

Pumping works better on girth than is does for length. The temporary girth increase is edema You may be pumping at too high of a vacuum or for too long for starting out.

Thanks for the reply,
Wait isnt the temporary pump/edema a good thing? people go on about how good/thicker their penis looks after pumping?

is edema a bad thing and am i not supose to look thicker after pumping?

Yes guys like the looks and feel of the temporary pump, but in my opinion edema anywhere on the body is not good. In the Penis Pumping 101 (article) there is a section that talks about this

Pressure is measured in inches of mercury – in.Hg. Safe pressure levels are generally between 0 in.Hg and 5 in.Hg – whether you “feel” it or not. Pumping at too high of a pressure level and/or for too long, can lead to edema- when tissues expand with lymphatic fluid. While minor edema does not damage the penis, over-pumping can cause painful blisters, ruptured blood vessels, and in some cases, permanent ED (erectile dysfunction).

Just start off with a lower vacuum to begin with. It also states that minor edema is not harmful. If your penis is slightly larger after and goes away soon then you will be OK. Just don't over pump to cause too much edema.
