How I Fixed My Discoloration from Pumping Using an Iodine Peel (At Your Own Risk!)

I still remember when my wife looked at me and said, "I don't like how dark it looks."

It wasn’t meant to be hurtful, but it stung. For three years, I had been on and off with penis pumping—not always consistent, but enough to see results. I had months of dedication where I would pump daily, reaching high pressures of up to 12 hg. But after those intense sessions, I noticed something else creeping in: discoloration.

I shrugged it off at first. After all, enlargement comes with some sacrifices, right? But over time, I couldn’t ignore it anymore. My wife’s comment sealed the deal—I needed to fix it.

That’s when I started looking into solutions, and after some research, I stumbled upon an unconventional fix: an iodine peel.

What Led to the Discoloration?

For those who may not be familiar, penis enlargement pumping involves using a vacuum pump to increase blood flow to the area, encouraging temporary and, over time, potentially permanent enlargement. 

However, as with anything that puts strain on the skin, side effects can occur. One of the most common issues with frequent pumping is discoloration.

This happens because of:

• Increased capillary fragility – Small blood vessels in the skin burst from the pressure, causing dark spots or bruising.
• Hyperpigmentation – Over time, repeated stress leads to skin darkening, much like how friction causes callouses.
• Lymphatic buildup – Trapped fluids can cause temporary or even semi-permanent darkened areas.

I had all of the above. The more consistent I was with high-pressure pumping, the darker the skin became. Moisturizing helped a little, but the deep, persistent discoloration remained.

Discovering the Iodine Peel Solution

I spent hours searching for solutions: skin-lightening creams, natural remedies, even laser treatments. But everything seemed expensive, unreliable, or just plain ineffective.

That’s when I came across iodine peeling. It’s a lesser-known method that some people use to exfoliate damaged or darkened skin. Iodine has natural antiseptic properties, but in this case, it acts as a chemical exfoliant, forcing the skin to peel and reveal fresh, lighter skin underneath.

The process was simple enough, but I knew it wasn’t without risks. Iodine is potent, and using it on sensitive areas like the penis? That’s definitely an "at your own risk" scenario.

Still, I was desperate enough to give it a shot.

How I Did the Iodine Peel?

I kept it straightforward:

• Used a 2% iodine solution – Anything stronger might be too harsh for the sensitive skin.
• Applied a thin layer – I dipped a Q-tip in iodine and gently swiped it over the darkened areas.
• Let it dry – I avoided touching the area until it was completely dry.
• Repeated daily for 8 days – Consistency was key, but I made sure not to overdo it.
• Moisturized before bed – Since iodine can be drying, I used a good-quality moisturizer at the end of the day.

The Peeling Process

For the first few days, nothing major happened. The area looked slightly more reddish than usual, but it wasn’t painful or uncomfortable. Then, around day four, the peeling started.

At first, it was subtle—tiny flakes of skin shedding away. But by day six or seven, the peeling was noticeable.

Twice, the area felt like it was burning. Not unbearable, but enough to make me pause and reconsider if I should continue. The discomfort lasted for a few minutes before settling down. I made sure to skip applications on those days to let the skin recover.

By day eight, I stopped applying iodine completely. The peeling ramped up, and within a few days, fresh, lighter skin appeared underneath.

The Results

To my surprise, the discoloration had significantly improved. It wasn’t a total reset—some darker patches still remained—but the difference was obvious. 

The hyperpigmentation that had built up over years of pumping had finally started to fade.

Most importantly, my wife noticed. "It looks way better," she said, and that alone made it all worth it.

Would I Recommend It?

• Here’s the thing—Iodine peeling isn’t for everyone. It worked for me, but there are risks involved:
• Skin Sensitivity – If you have extremely sensitive skin, this could cause irritation or worse.
• Over-Peeling – Applying too much or too often might lead to excessive peeling, which could expose raw, vulnerable skin.
• Discomfort – There were moments of burning, so if you’re not prepared for that, this might not be the best route.

If you’re considering trying it, proceed with extreme caution. Test a small area first, and don’t overdo it. And of course, if you experience severe irritation, stop immediately.

Final Thoughts

Pumping has been a journey for me—one filled with ups and downs. While I’m happy with my progress, the discoloration was an unexpected downside. Finding a fix that actually worked (even partially) was a huge relief.

Would I do it again? Yes—but carefully. If I notice discoloration creeping back, I might do another short round of iodine peeling, but I’ll make sure to be extra gentle.

For anyone dealing with the same issue, I hope my experience helps. 

Just remember: this is not medical advice. It worked for me, but your results may vary. Do your research, take it slow, and above all—proceed at your own risk.

I Thought Size Gains Were a Myth—Until I Tried This Secret Hanging Rig

I used to believe that size gains were just a myth. You’ve probably seen all the shady ads promising insane results, only to be left with disappointment (and an empty wallet). But after years of skepticism, I finally found a way that actually worked—and it wasn’t some overpriced gadget or a sketchy supplement. It was a simple, modified Phallosan hanging rig that changed the game for me.

This is my personal journey, from frustration to real, measurable results. If you’ve ever doubted whether natural growth is possible, keep reading.

The Beginning: Dusting Off My Phallosan

I bought a Phallosan years ago, but like many guys, I barely used it. It sat in my drawer collecting dust until last January when I decided to give it another shot. For three months, I committed to using the belt system for 4-6 hours a day.

At first, it was promising. I could feel the stretch, and my measurements showed minor improvements. But it wasn’t long before I hit a wall. My body adapted quickly, and I maxed out the tension on the belt rig. Even worse? It wasn’t comfortable. The belt dug into my waist, and I constantly had to adjust it throughout the day.

That’s when I knew I needed to make a change.

The Hanging Rig Experiment

I started researching different methods and stumbled upon vacuum hanging. It seemed like the logical next step—higher tension, longer duration, and potentially better results. But I didn’t want to spend a fortune on a whole new setup. Instead, I decided to modify my existing Phallosan into a hanging rig.

Here’s what I did:

• Removed the Phallosan connection point – Instead of using the default attachment, I replaced it with brass wire and a Dyneema cord.
• Created a pulley system – I ran the cord through a carabiner, attached it to another length of cord, and fed it through a pulley under my desk.
• Attached is a weight stack – This allowed for progressive overload, just like in strength training.
• Used micropore tape and the water technique – This prevented slippage and made the sessions much more comfortable.

With this setup, I could now apply significantly more tension than the original Phallosan design allowed.

My Routine: The Commitment That Paid Off

Once my rig was ready, I started with light weights to avoid injury. Over time, I worked up to 12.5 lbs, doing two 30-minute sets, six days a week.

After each session, I followed up with hard clamping girth work to maximize expansion and cement my gains. I also continued using the Phallosan as an all-day stretcher (ADS) when I wasn’t hanging.

Tracking my progress was crucial. I kept a detailed log of my hours, weight increases, and post-hang measurements. Here’s what my year looked like:

• Phallosan ADS system: 293 hours
• Vacuum hanging: 234 hours
• Girth work: 112 hours

And the results? Worth every minute.

The Results: What I Gained After One Year

When I started, my Bone-Pressed Erect Length (BPEL) was 7.75 inches and my Bone-Pressed Flaccid Stretched Length (BPFSL) was 8 inches. After a year, my BPEL increased to 8.5 inches, and my BPFSL reached 9 inches.

That’s a 0.75-inch gain in length!

My girth also improved, adding about 0.25 inches from the clamping routine.

For the first time in my life, I felt like I was in control of my size. No more wishful thinking or skepticism—just real, measurable progress.

Why This Method Works

The key to my success was progressive overload—the same principle behind muscle growth. By gradually increasing tension over time, my body responded by adapting and growing.

The combination of vacuum hanging and girth work also ensured I wasn’t just stretching tissue but actively stimulating new growth. By keeping my Phallosan as an ADS, I maintained those gains rather than letting them shrink back.

But here’s the thing… I recently discovered something even more powerful than vacuum hanging.

The Ultimate Penis Enlargement Breakthrough: Stem Cells

We all know that growth is possible, but most methods are slow, painful, or unreliable. That’s why scientists have been looking for a more efficient way to achieve permanent gains—and they’ve found it.

Stem cells.

These are the body’s master cells, capable of transforming into any tissue—including penile tissue. With the right protocol, you can trigger real, natural growth by increasing the number of cells in your shaft.

But here’s the problem: As we age, our stem cell levels decline, making growth much harder. If you’ve struggled to see results, this could be why.

The good news? There’s now a verified, scientific way to boost your stem cell count and unlock your full growth potential.

On the next page, you’ll see the groundbreaking science behind this method and take a quick quiz to find out how much bigger you could get based on your size, age, and genetics.

I Used an Extender for a Month – Here’s What Happened!

I never thought I'd actually do it. The idea of extending to encourage length gains had always been something I read about in forums, but never something I imagined myself trying. I was naturally 6 inches long with a 5.3-inch girth, which I never really had complaints about. But deep down, I always wondered: Could I be bigger?

When I first ordered an extender, I had serious doubts. What if it didn’t work? What if I ended up hurting myself? And most of all—what if it was just another scam, like so many other “male enhancement” products out there? Despite my hesitation, curiosity got the best of me. I figured, why not give it a shot? After all, I was already on a self-improvement journey.

Just a few months ago, I weighed 315 pounds. I knew I had to change. I started focusing on my diet, hitting the gym consistently, and keeping track of my progress. Now, I’m down to 293 pounds, and that alone has already made a difference in how I feel and how my body looks. I was finally seeing positive changes, so why not push further?

The First Steps: Nervous but Determined

When the package arrived, my hands were actually shaking. It felt like I was holding the key to something that could either be a breakthrough or a complete waste of time. 

I spent the first day just looking at the device, reading every piece of information I could find online. Eventually, I told myself, You won’t know until you try.

The first time wearing it was... weird. It felt awkward and a little uncomfortable, and I kept wondering if I was doing it right. I made sure to start with low tension, following all the safety guidelines. My biggest fear was overdoing it and causing damage, so I took it slow. Just an hour or two a day, gradually increasing the time over the next couple of weeks.

I noticed small changes almost immediately—not necessarily in size, but in how I felt about myself. Just the act of committing to something like this made me feel more in control of my growth, both physically and mentally. And then, after a few weeks, I started seeing real results.

The First Signs of Growth: Was It Actually Working?

One morning, after a quick pump session, I looked in the mirror and couldn’t believe it. My usual 5.3-inch girth had expanded to 6.4 inches post-pump. 

Now, I knew that was temporary, but seeing that extra size even for a short period gave me a surge of confidence. I started wondering—what if I could make that kind of change permanent?

It was at this point that I started researching other methods beyond just extending. I looked into exercises, supplements, and even different types of traction devices. 

But what really caught my attention was something I had never seriously considered before: stem cells.

The Breakthrough: Science-Backed Growth with Stem Cells

I stumbled upon something shocking—scientists had discovered that stem cells could actually encourage real, lasting growth. It made perfect sense. 

Stem cells are responsible for regenerating and repairing tissue all over the body. And with the right approach, they could do the same for growth down there.

I realized that one of the reasons many men struggle to see real gains isn’t because growth is impossible—it’s because their bodies don’t have enough stem cells to support it. 

As we age, our natural stem cell levels decline, making it harder to regenerate new tissue. But with the right program, that problem could be solved.

The Future of Male Enhancement: Taking the Next Step

I used to believe that natural size was something you just had to accept. That you either got lucky in the genetic lottery or you didn’t. But now, I know that’s not the case. Science has finally caught up with what men have been hoping for centuries—real, tangible ways to make permanent changes.

And it’s not just wishful thinking. There’s an entire protocol designed to help men maximize their potential using cutting-edge stem cell research. The process isn’t about gimmicks or quick fixes. It’s about understanding your body, optimizing it, and using the most advanced methods available to get real results.

The Truth About Size Perception: Why You’re Bigger Than You Think

I still remember the first time I really paid attention to my size. Not in a locker room or a comparison, just me, alone, standing in front of a mirror. It was a moment of self-reflection—literally. Holding a ruler, I tried to get an accurate measurement. But no matter what the numbers told me, my eyes refused to believe it.

From my perspective, it looked... average. Maybe even below. And that’s when I started to really dig into the concept of perception—how we see ourselves versus how the world sees us.

The Perception Illusion

I’m a big guy—6'1" and weighing around 90kg. Yet when I looked down at myself, I couldn't shake the feeling that I didn’t measure up. Even at 70% erect, I hit 7 inches BPEL (Bone-Pressed Erect Length) with a 5.5-inch girth. That’s well above average, yet in my mind, it didn’t feel that way.

Why?

The answer, I realized, is all about angles, proportions, and psychology.

When you look down at yourself, perspective plays tricks on your brain. Your shaft appears shorter due to foreshortening—the way objects look smaller when viewed from a certain angle. Meanwhile, looking in the mirror, you see yourself surrounded by your own body, which can make things seem smaller than they actually are.

But the biggest factor? Your own mind.

How Surroundings Shape Our Perception

I started experimenting. I took a photo from a side angle instead of looking down. Immediately, my perspective changed. I suddenly looked bigger—more proportional. 

Then, I used everyday objects for comparison. Holding a TV remote next to it gave me a tangible sense of scale, and guess what? It was way larger than I had always believed.

Then I realized another key factor: the size of the individual.

A 7-inch length on a 5'5" guy would look different than on someone over six feet. It’s the same way a 50-inch TV looks massive in a small room but normal in a spacious living room. 

Your body proportions affect your perception, and for taller or broader guys, our size can often make things seem less impressive in comparison.

The Mental Game: Overcoming Self-Doubt

The hardest thing about all of this? The mental battle.

Even after I objectively proved to myself that I was above average, my brain still fought against it. 

Years of seeing exaggerated sizes in adult films, hearing jokes, and dealing with personal insecurities had trained me to believe something that wasn’t true.

But numbers don’t lie.

I started focusing on reality rather than perception. I stopped comparing myself to unrealistic standards and embraced the truth. The moment I shifted my mindset, my confidence skyrocketed.

And let me tell you: Confidence is everything.

The Science-Backed Way to Actually Grow Bigger

For years, people have debated whether real-size growth is possible. Most men believe it isn’t. And why wouldn’t they? Scams, false promises, and myths have convinced us that it’s all fantasy.

But what if science has already found the answer?

Stem Cells: The Game-Changer

Stem cells are nature’s secret weapon. They can transform into any type of cell in the body. Need more muscle? Need more tissue? Need more growth in specific areas? Stem cells can do that.

As men age, stem cell production declines, making it nearly impossible for natural growth. But with the right approach—one that stimulates stem cell activity—you can trigger actual growth where it matters most.

And the best part? It’s backed by research.

I Struggled with My Size for 23 Years – Here’s How I’m Fixing It!

I've been fixated on the size of my penis for pretty much my whole life. It all began back in elementary school when my cousins showed me porn. I used to watch videos non-stop every night, which, looking back, set me up for years of feeling insecure. 

As a kid, I had no clue that comparing myself to those adult film stars would mess with my head so much—it created this deep-seated issue with my body image that ended up controlling my confidence, my relationships, and how I felt about myself for over 20 years.

By the time I got to high school, my body image issues were worse than ever. While my friends were starting to date and have their first relationships, I was actively avoiding even the possibility. The idea of being judged because of my size was paralyzing. 

Whenever I pictured being intimate with a girl, I'd automatically imagine her being disappointed, hearing people talk about me behind my back, and that soul-crushing feeling that I just wasn't good enough. Because of this, I kept to myself. I turned down chances to get close to people, positive that I'd only end up being rejected.

A Lifetime of Comparison

As I was growing up, I fell into the habit of constantly measuring myself against other guys. Whether it was in locker rooms, public showers, or even through anonymous interactions on dating apps, I was always on the lookout for some kind of affirmation, or perhaps, confirmation that I just wasn't good enough. 

I'd secretly sneak peeks, comparing myself to every man I encountered. I even swapped photos with complete strangers, not because I found them attractive, but because I was desperate to gauge where I ranked. Still, it never felt like I measured up.

A pivotal moment that really cemented my insecurities happened back in fifth grade. My dad, exasperated by my constant toilet misses, made me watch him pee. For what felt like an eternity, two or three excruciating minutes, I stood there, glued to the spot, unable to tear my eyes away, absorbing the painful truth: my own father was way bigger than me. It was devastating. 

Before then, I'd been clinging to the idea that it was just genetics, that my smaller size was simply in my genes. But that experience shattered that illusion, leaving me with the stark realization that it was just how things were meant to be. My self-hatred intensified after that.

Struggling with Confidence and Sexuality

When I got to high school, I still hadn't had sex. While all my friends were losing their virginity, I was trapped in my own mind, too scared and filled with self-doubt to even try. 

My insecurities pushed me in a strange direction – I ended up looking for approval by dating men. I wasn't really attracted to them like I was to women, but it felt less scary to be judged. 

From 17 to 21, I had relationships with dominant, confident guys – guys with the kind of size and self-assurance I wished I had. 

But no matter how many times I did it, I never felt like I got the validation I craved. I still felt like I wasn't good enough. I still felt insignificant.

Discovering PE: A Glimmer of Hope

When I was 16, I was first introduced to the idea of penis enlargement (PE). However, everything I found suggested it was impossible without surgery, which, as a teenager with no money, wasn't a viable option. Despite that, I wasn't ready to give up. I spent hours on forums, devoured articles, and soaked up every piece of information I could get my hands on. But, I couldn't bring myself to take any real action.

Then, in 2023, I finally subscribed to the Penis Professor program, dead set on transforming my life. But again, I failed to follow through. I wasn't ready to embrace it as a lifestyle change, and I lacked the privacy needed to fully commit. Instead, I remained on the sidelines in PE communities, watching others achieve their goals while I stayed trapped in my own insecurities.

The Turning Point

I'm 23 now, and I feel like I'm at a real turning point. That intense jealousy I used to feel? It's gone. I don't resent other guys for how they're built anymore. 

Sure, I still have my insecurities, but they don't run my life anymore. I've grown up a lot. I get it now—size isn't the be-all and end-all. But that doesn't mean I don't want to get better.

I want to have a family someday. I want to feel sure I can satisfy my partner. And I want to do whatever I can to shake off those doubts that have been following me around for years. 

So, I'm finally giving PE a try. It's not because I'm desperate, it's because I want to improve myself.

My Goals and Plan

Okay, here's a more human-like take on your text, keeping the same language and meaning:

So, I'm currently at a base of 6.625 inches in length and 4.5 inches in circumference. My immediate target is straightforward: within a year, I aim to gain at least half an inch, whether it's in length or girth. It's crucial for me to see that this actually works. 

My medium-term objective is to hit 7.25 inches by 5.25 inches before I settle into a serious relationship. As for my long-term goal, well, that will depend on my future wife's preferences, but realistically, I can't see myself exceeding 8.25 inches by 6.25 inches.

For the time being, I'm focusing solely on manual exercises. I want to get into a solid routine before I think about using devices, supplements, or any other advanced methods. My main worry right now is measuring accurately. 

My stats seem to indicate I'm at least average, but when I look down, I feel like I'm smaller. I've remeasured countless times, and the numbers don't change. If anyone has any wisdom to share on this, I'm definitely interested in hearing it.

Moving Forward

This isn't simply about changing my size; it's about building my confidence, gaining control, and ultimately overcoming my insecurities. 

I'm not sure where this road will take me, but I'm prepared to take that initial leap. I'm open to any guidance, critiques, or wisdom you might have. None of it will offend me. 

My goal is to approach this in the best possible way, to ensure that after all these years, my hard work will finally bear fruit. 

For the first time ever, I'm ready to make a real change. Let's see where this journey will guide me.

I Experimented with Anti-Lox Cream for Pen1s Growth—Here’s What Happened!

For years, I’ve been fascinated by male enhancement. Not the sketchy pills or gimmicky extenders, but real, science-backed ways to increase size. So, when I stumbled upon a research study showing that a compound called B-aminopropionitrile (BAPN)—also known as "anti-lox"—had led to 20-30% penis growth in rats, I knew I had to try it.

This wasn't some fantasy. The study was real. BAPN works by inhibiting lysyl oxidase (LOX), an enzyme that strengthens collagen. Since the tunica albuginea (the tough tissue surrounding the erectile chambers) is made of collagen, weakening it could allow the penis to expand more easily—leading to permanent growth over time.

The study had shown significant gains in just four weeks, but the researchers used oral ingestion. I didn’t want to risk systemic side effects, so I decided to try a topical gel version instead. I worked with a specialist to create a highly absorbable formula and combined it with a vacuum pump to maximize tissue expansion.

Would it work? Would it be dangerous? I had no idea. But I was willing to find out.

Week 1: The Beginning of the Experiment

I started applying the anti-lox cream every night before bed. My formula contained BAPN, a carrier agent for deep penetration, and a few skin-safe enhancers to maximize absorption while reducing systemic effects.

The first few applications were uneventful. No burning, no irritation—just a slightly warm sensation. After applying the cream, I used my vacuum pump for 15 minutes, gently stretching the tissue. The logic was simple: with the collagen weakened, the tunica should expand more than usual.

By the end of the first week, I didn't notice any size changes, but something was different. My erections felt… fuller? I chalked it up to placebo.

Week 2: Signs of Change?

By the second week, I noticed something strange—when I pumped, my post-session expansion lasted longer than before. Normally, my temporary size increase would disappear within 30 minutes, but now it was holding for hours.

Was the anti-lox actually working? It was too soon to tell, but I kept going.

One concern I had was tissue fragility—if my tunica became too weak, would I be at risk for injury? I was careful not to over-pump and made sure to monitor for any discomfort.

At this point, I was both excited and nervous.

Week 3: Real Gains?

This was where things got interesting. By the third week, I saw a visible difference. When fully erect, my girth looked noticeably thicker. I measured, and sure enough—I had gained 0.3 inches in circumference!

Even crazier, my flaccid length was longer. I’d always been a grower, but now I was hanging lower even when soft.

Was it due to the anti-lox? The pumping? A combination of both? I didn't know, but I was hooked.

Week 4: The Verdict

At the one-month mark, I measured again. To my absolute shock, my gains had increased to 0.5 inches in girth and nearly 0.3 inches in length!

My erections felt firmer, fuller, and my partner even commented on the difference.

But there were some potential side effects too. My skin felt slightly thinner, and I had to be extra careful during pumping sessions. I avoided overuse to prevent injury, and luckily, I didn’t experience any serious issues.

So, did it work? Yes.

Did I experience 20-30% growth like the rat study? No, but I did see measurable gains in just four weeks.

Could this be the next breakthrough in male enhancement? I believe it has serious potential.

Would I Recommend It?

Honestly? 

If you're not afraid of experimenting, anti-lox combined with mechanical stretching might be worth trying.

However, this comes with risks:

• We don’t know the long-term effects of anti-lox on human tissue.
• Overuse could lead to weakness or injury if the tunica becomes too fragile.
• Systemic absorption could affect collagen elsewhere in the body.

I plan to continue experimenting but with caution. I’ll reduce the application frequency and monitor my body’s response closely.

For now, though, I can confidently say:

This might actually work.

Final Thoughts

I don’t know if this will become the next big thing in male enhancement, but my experiment was promising. If the gains hold (or continue), this could open an entirely new approach to penis enlargement.

I’ll keep documenting my progress, and if I hit the 1-inch gain mark, I’ll be back with a full update.

Until then, this has been one of the wildest, most exciting experiments I’ve ever tried.

99% of Men Measure Their Girth WRONG – Are You One of Them?

I remember the first time I decided to measure my penis girth. I had just finished reading an article about average penis sizes, and curiosity got the best of me. I mean, who wouldn’t want to know where they stand? But as I grabbed a measuring tape and stood there in my bathroom, I realized—I had no idea how to do this correctly.

Was I supposed to pull the tape tight? Just rest it gently? Measure at the base or the middle? These were questions I hadn’t considered until I was in the moment, and surprisingly, there wasn’t much clear guidance online. 

So, after a lot of trial and error (and a bit of frustration), I finally figured out the proper way to measure penis girth. And now, I’m here to help you get it right the first time.

Why Measuring Penis Girth Matters

For a lot of guys, penis size is a topic wrapped in self-esteem and confidence. We often focus on length, but girth is just as important—if not more so—when it comes to sexual pleasure.

Knowing your girth can help with:

• Finding the right condom size (too tight = discomfort, too loose = risk of slipping off)
• Understanding what might feel best for your partner
• Tracking changes over time (yes, your penis girth can fluctuate!)

So, if you’re going to measure, you might as well do it right. Let’s get into the details.

Step 1: Choosing the Right Measuring Tool

A standard ruler won’t work for measuring girth. You need something flexible that can wrap around the circumference of your shaft. The best options are:

• A tailor’s measuring tape (the soft, flexible kind used for sewing)
• A piece of string (which you can mark and then measure with a ruler afterward)

Avoid using things like paper strips or non-flexible rulers. They’re awkward and often lead to inaccurate results.

Step 2: Getting a Full Erection

For consistency, you’ll want to measure when fully erect. Girth can vary significantly between a flaccid and erect state, so if you’re trying to get a measurement that reflects your actual size during sex, make sure you’re at 100%.

How to ensure you’re fully erect:

• Give yourself enough stimulation until you reach maximum hardness.
• Take your time—rushing may lead to a partial erection, which skews results.
• Stand up, as this is typically the most natural way to measure.

Step 3: Wrapping the Tape Measure (How Tight is Too Tight?)

Here’s where a lot of guys mess up. When wrapping the tape or string around your shaft, you should aim for firm contact with the skin, but without squeezing.

Think of it this way:

• Too loose? You’ll get an inflated measurement that isn’t accurate.
• Too tight? You might artificially shrink the girth, giving yourself a lower number than reality.
• Just right? The tape should be snug against the skin, but not pressing in hard enough to indent or restrict blood flow.

You should be able to comfortably slide a finger under the tape without it feeling like it's cutting into your skin.

Step 4: Measuring at the Right Spot

Not all parts of your shaft have the same girth. Some men are thicker at the base, while others are thickest near the middle or head. To get the most representative measurement:

• Wrap the tape around the thickest part of your shaft (usually the mid-shaft, but this varies by individual).
• Make sure the tape is parallel to the ground, not tilted or uneven.
• Read the measurement where the tape meets itself.

If you’re using a string, mark the meeting point with a pen, then straighten it out and measure it against a ruler.

Step 5: Double-Check Your Measurement

For accuracy, take two or three measurements and see if they match. If you get inconsistent results, re-evaluate how tightly you’re wrapping the tape or whether you’re measuring the thickest point.

Also, don’t stress if your number isn’t exactly what you hoped for. Remember: girth is just one aspect of sexual pleasure, and a difference of a few millimeters won’t make or break anything.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

1. Using a Metal Tape Measure – Those rigid measuring tapes from the toolbox? Bad idea. They won’t wrap smoothly, and you’ll get an inaccurate reading.
2. Measuring While Semi-Erect – Your girth when you’re only half-hard isn’t an accurate reflection of your true size during sex.
3. Pulling Too Tight – This compresses the skin and gives a smaller-than-real measurement.
4. Measuring in Different Places Each Time – Always go for the thickest part for consistency.
5. Not Writing It Down – If you’re tracking size over time, keep a note so you don’t have to measure again unnecessarily.

So, What’s the Average Penis Girth?

In case you’re wondering where you stand, here’s what studies show:

• Flaccid girth: Around 3.67 inches (9.31 cm)
• Erect girth: Around 4.59 inches (11.66 cm)

That means anything in the 4.5-5-inch range is completely normal. And even if you’re below that, remember—girth isn’t everything! Sexual technique and chemistry matter far more than raw numbers.

Final Thoughts

Measuring penis girth may not be a conversation topic at your next dinner party, but it’s something a lot of guys are curious about. If you’re going to do it, you might as well do it right.

To recap:

• Use a flexible measuring tape or string.
• Measure when fully erect.
• Wrap the tape snugly, but without squeezing.
• Take the measurement at the widest part of the shaft.
• Double-check for accuracy.

Now that you know the right way to measure, you can finally put those doubts to rest. And hey—if you ever find yourself in a conversation about penis size, you’ll be the guy who actually knows what he’s talking about.
