Wow that thread is amazingly informative techguy. After reading it I have to say that PE can be just as dangerous as it is beneficial. Moderators are quick to ban people that suffer any type of injury, claiming they create a false sense of fear among people who want to try PE. I think it is just as important to know the risks of PE as it is to know the benefits.
Thank god my ED is very mild and curable but I am convinced that if I never got overzealous with pumping and stretching 12 years ago that my penis would maintain erections more efficiently than it currently does. Neverthless I think the single most important thing to do when trying penis enlargement is to go VERY LIGHT, only slightly increasing intensity each time and closely monitor how your penis responds in terms of erectile function. If you ever lose EQ, then back off PE until you are healed.
PE is a very new science, nobody knows exactly how it works or why it works, and why it works better for some than others. This is why people who are truthfully describing their injuries from PE should not be banned on sight. I think PE is an awesome area of research, and it is still in the trial and error stages.
I think Ive probably gained .5 inch in length and girth from doing PE when I was about 16-18 but I believe I also hurt my ability to maintain erections as efficiently. My erectile performance was worst at about 18 and gradually got better through healing (and quitting PE) until about 22-23 where I was fully healed to the best of my bodies ability. At about 28 I restarted PE, this time focusing on increasing performance rather than size, and think my erections are now at an all time best (12 years of healing, and modified PE for performance instead of size).
So for anyone that cares here is my current PE routine: Ive only been on it for a couple weeks, however I have had the strongest erections I've had in years on it.
1. Ive cut my ejaculations down to once or twice a week to maximize my sex drive and erectile strength.
2. I am edging/ballooning 2-3 times per week, for 20-45 minutes each session. I try to stay as close to the point before ejaculating for as long as possible. I do not ejaculate after the session, and keep the session under an hour to prevent getting blue balls (strained internal sex organs from refrained ejaculation). I focus on getting near orgasm then letting it subside by reverse kegeling.Sometimes I will also hold the reverse kegel and edge with it, and my penis feels huge when I am edging/ballooning when near orgasm with a reverse kegel. This expands my penis to its absolute maximum size and my penis it noticeably larger for a couple days.
3. I cut out all traumatic forms of PE including jelqing, stretching, and most other techniques since I am focusing primarily on building erectile performance and size by simply increasing the strength of my erections and internal erection pressure. It is working!
4. I am taking 2 fish oil, and 1 natural vitamin E. Also taking 1 teaspoon maca daily, and 1 cup of green tea. Diet is well balanced and excellent. I have also increased my water intake which has a pro sexual effect for some reason.
5. I am weightlifting intensely, with cardio 5-6 times per week.
6. I just started using Bio-Oil as a penis moisturizer after showers. Don't know if it does anything, but I had one of the best erections of my life while edging/ballooning yesterday a couple hours after having moisturized my penis with bio oil. It is possible that it improves penis circulation or heals veins, but it's hard to believe it would do that after one use.
7. I never do strenuous kegels, however I do something called light pleasurable kegels. Light pleasurable kegels sometimes stimulate an erection in me without any manual touch, and I can often maintain these erection for several minutes with just the light kegeling and some light penis swinging. If the erection subsides I never kegel hard to try to maintain it, as this only boosts the erection for a few seconds but than significantly weakens it. Strenuous hard kegels have cause ED in me before, but light pleasureable kegels seem to strengthen me sexually and allow me to maintain erections without stimulation. Summary: Light pleasurable kegels feel good and are very light and easy, never strained.
Following the above routine I am now waking with an erection 5-7 days per week, have great erectile performance and my size seems to be increasing simply because my erections are stronger with more internal pressure. My body has been trained to maintain these powerful erections more efficiently through edging/ballooning and the pleasure principle. If the excellent results I am getting from this routine continue over the next couple months, I will be making a post in the success forum because the results so far are simply amazing.
