It works great to compliment your already existing PE routine as: 1) a warmup, 2) a warm-down, or 3) both as in my case

it is possible to get a really effective pump with the Bathmate. I think those who talk down about it don't understand how to use it properly.

----It has to be filled with water to the BRIM! Reason is - water doesn't compress but air does: meaning if there is any air in there, that much less pressure applied to penis. Common physics people!

It is fun! I would recommend it highly based on 2 weeks of use - I am noticing a difference! compared to when I did PE alone

From experience of using the bathmate, it works better in the tub than shower, tub it gets full of water, get a better pump.

i have a Bathmate as well and i havent been super satisfied with it however im probably using it wrong. I cannot for the life of me seem to get a good suction. ideally the thing is supposed to be more or less 'stuck' to your dick. this doesnt happen for me.. it keeps falling off so i just sort of pump it randomly to at least get some suction action before i toss it aside. i can notice a difference when i take the thing off but as with most pumps it eventually subsides. i am begininng to wonder if *anyone* has ever achieved permanent gains with this thing.

so, does anyone have any tried and true techniques when using the Bathmate ??

That is a great question, jetsetter, since there has been much speculation. I am testing this theory, read here:

https://www.pegym.com/forums/progress-log/7087-pe_zen-s-pre-post-bathmate-log.html

How are you using it - in the bathtub? Of all the places I tried it it works best in the bath. I stand up by the sink some sessions but I occasionally lose pressure doing this. follow these steps:

1. Immerse yourself and bathmate in tub.
2. Work yourself to 50-80% erection if possible. (but not necessary)
3. put bathmate on underwater so no air leaks in!
4. when you feel like you have the positioning comfortable, stick only the top valve of the bathmate out of the water and squeeze down fully once. Water should come out and you will feel the suction. Repeat if desired, until you can't pump anymore water out. This, to me, feels like an incredible suction. Good luck.

Oh, and you may want to "trim" your bushel ;)

As i posted in a separate thread, i've been using the bathmate for 6 weeks straight, every single day. I've had zero measurable results. So far, after 6 weeks of daily use (20 or 40 minutes per day), i've gained nothing. Just my experience thus far.

My first week (of a 6 month experiment)

My first week (of a 6 month experiment)

Hey guys,

Newbie here. Been lurking on a bunch of forums but liked this one the best so here I am. The Bathmate has caught my interest for a while and I got one last week and am now committed to trying it for at least 6 months as an introduction to PE. I've been a quasi-jelqer over the past year. I've mainly done it after I shower, but not in a structured way. I am very impressed with the dedication some of you show to this cause, however, I am too lazy and busy to fit in one hour of PE into my daily rhythm. I've been trying the Bathmate for a week now and even the 20 minutes/day of that have been tough, lol.

I am pretty happy with my penis overall. I do wish for more erect girth, but my main objective is achieving a lower hanging flaccid penis. Right now I hang about 4" soft on a good day, but normally I sport 3.5" and after a workout I might be even smaller than that. As pathetic as I feel about it, I do admit that I suffer from locker room syndrome. Maybe my mates are abnormally hung, but I sincerely do feel like I am always on the short side in the locker room and it has always bothered me. I'd also like to get some more flaccid foreskin coverage as my foreskin is on the short side.

So I have a few initial observations about the Bathmate. Construction is good and it is easy to use. Unlike some previous posters I have no problem getting a good vacuum. My penis bends in an upward u-shape when erect and this makes it slightly uncomfortable to enter with anything more than a 80% erection. I have tried it in the shower, bath and at my desk(!) and I think for me I will go with the latter of those options. I lived in a shared flat and I simply can't motivate 20-min showers or baths. That said, filling it up using the tap in my room and applying it has been easy with the only downside being spilling some water on the floor upon inserting my penis into the Bathmate. Before doing this I wet my pubic area, scrotum and penis. I also bring a large mug to the desk for collecting the water I pump out. Sitting like this with the Bathmate seems to produce the same result as using it in the shower.

So what about gains? This is the experiment I will conduct until June (and beyond if successful). I do see a huge difference immediately after removing the device. It's an ugly sight with the penis being very bloated and with a noticeable "doughnut" due to the puffed up foreskin that rolls behind the glans. A few minutes later it looks much better but still pretty swollen (see pics). I do this routine at night before bed and when I wake up I must say that my penis looks quite nice. It looks much less swollen compared to immediately after removal of the device, yet the penis looks much "heavier" if that makes any sense. I get a good hang for most of the day. Even by the time I reapply the Bathmate, I can still observe the results from the previous session.

I attached a few pictures that I hoped to get your input on. These pictures were taken about 30 mins after use. As you can see there are horizontal lines on the penis near the base. These are from the rubber tube on the Bathmate. In the instruction manual it says: "When maximum girth growth is reached, ring marks may appear at the base of the penis, indicating a model size increase." I saw these rings even after my first use and I am not that thick, so I do not know if this is a good or a bad sign. Do you other users get similar rings near the base?

Pictures 2-4 show a couple of profile views and an image of the foreskin rolled back. The foreskin does get puffy and swollen and looks rather unattractive. It seems as if this device will help me achieve more flaccid foreskin coverage, but I am not too thrilled about how it looks. Even after 12 hours the foreskin is swollen, although not as much as in these pictures. Does this happen to you guys as well? Do you more experienced PE-ers have any ideas for how this swelling can be minimized?

This turned out a lot longer than I intended so I will end here. Hoping to have some constructive conversations on here with other Bathmate users. Cheers!

I also get the horizontal lines at the base of my penis after my 20 minute sessions. Sometimes, it's rather uncomfortable, but i'm not ready to dish out another $119 or more to get the goliath (or whatever it's called). Today is my 7th week of daily use and i still cant say i have any measurable erection girth or length increase.

I used it four days and then I got a fluidzilla with peyronies and horizontal cuts, so I kept massaging until it got unstuck but the fluid stayed to next day. Taking a few days off to get rid of fluid and heal the cuts. There was just a layer of soft fluid-filled tissue about half an inch thick all around--useless.

I was going for 200mm. Bad idea. I have to settle for 190-195mm and about 15 minute session max and then it seems like it might be useful. I'm hoping it will help fill out flaccid length to el.

The four days without fluidzilla I could do clamping afterwards.

Pardon my ignorance but what is a fluidzilla? I have lurked enough on PE forums to be familiar with a lot of the jargon but that is something I've never come across before. When you say cuts, do you mean literal cuts with blood coming out or just horizontal marks? I can't really see how you could cut yourself using this thing unless the skin of your penis is really inelastic due to dryness or something and cracks due to the expansion.

Sorry, oxdick, I am not a good communicator. I guess the first zilla was the Japanese sea
monster Godzilla. Then most of us have heard of the long dick, Mandingo, and the huge
thick dick, Blackzilla, mightiest porn star dicks. Fluid-zilla is what happened to me. Have you
seen a Bathmate? I used it for four days about 15 minutes, then fifth day about 20 minutes
but I kept going for the 200mm mark. To do that I was pulling too much fluid into the tissues.
My normal girth is 6 to 6.5" but my dick was filling the whole Bathmate to the sides, all the
way up. When I pulled it out, I had a huge heavy soft soggy swelled up peenus with an
erection under half an inch of soggy soft fluid-filled tissue. The erection would not go away
for hours and that was as scary as the fluid not going away. No harm done though. I just
kept massaging it until it got less scary and then came back every now and then and
tried to massage more fluid out. Next day it wasn't too pitiful anymore.

That's my first five days with Bathmate. I'm taking a few days off, then sticking to 15 minutes/day.

Yes, literally slight cuts from pressing into the rubber bellows at the bottom. It works up a lot of
pressure to swell a 6.5" girth all the way up to fill the whole Bathmate from bottom to 198mm!
In two days, the slight cuts were healed. I wasn't worried about those at all. You could put
vaseline or olive oil or any kind of greasy ointment or oil on abrasions like that, or hand lotion,
whatever. I was only concerned about the fluid. Imagine I could not get my big hand around
my dick at any point for HOURS. Pretty strange, but useless I think. What is useable, though,
is just a little bit of fluid like I had the first four days. You could have sex with that and also
use the extra long erection that goes with it, yet it's not "yours" to keep. No way I could do
anything with the full fluidzilla, though, it's too soft even though the core had an erection for
two hours without any relation to fantasy--it was just "stuck".

I heard somebody say he only used a bathroom sink with his Bathmate. I fill mine with the tub spout and sit somewhere, on the edge of empty tub or in empty tub. You could mix water with coffee at the office to arrive at a comfortable temp, then squirt excess into a trashcan as you go. On the back of a camel you could use coconut milk from the last oasis. Vitamin E would be good. You could use herb teas or fruit juice to prep for blowjobs.

I'm going to buy one, my only concern is not the item but the packaging it's sent in.. I literally need that thing to be discreet and unidentifiable as an adult toy otherwise it would draw some really odd looks in this household.

Thanks comeon, I purchased one on ebay last week though and it came in, nothing to distinguish anything adult related on the box so it was good.

btw, has anyone else had a pumping session only to have the size last a few minutes before going back to normal? Everywhere else I read that it lasts 1 - 2 hours in the beginning but mine is only lasting a few minutes. I've been using it flacid though could that be why? or is it a conditioning thing that just takes time?

I water pump with a regular air pump cylinder, but the results should be the same.

If I do not start with an erection and pump my penis into an erection without other stimulation, I will also go back to almost normal within a few minutes. When I take Viagra (I have ED) and then pump, I can usually maintain the enhanced erection, with stimulation (sex)for up to an hour after coming out of the tube. If I place a restriction band around my unit and re-do it every 20 minutes to refresh the blood, I can go for 2 hours or more.
