Like I have said, I have messed around with PE before, didn’t experience growth, but noticed increased staying power. Before I started PE again, this was all I could think about, and I was reading and reading and getting more and more obsessed. My last PE day I noticed sharp pain during stretching, and I stopped after that, didn’t think much about it then and there. But, morning wood was gone the next day
I didn’t have the time to skim through this entire thread, but if what this poster says is genuine, then I might as well add my experience into the forays of PE:
When I was 18, I started ordering penis pills because, like OP, I was obsessed with getting an even bigger penis. Despite the fact that I’m already 8 inches and above average in girth, I started taking Extagen, and later on, Pro Solution pills.
It was during my freshman year in college that I started PE.
At the time, I remember experiencing tiny injuries every so often, where just a night or two of rest would cure it.
I never PE’d for more than a few months at a time, and the number of times I’ve done so can be counted on 1 hand.
During sophomore year of college, I dumped all the penis pills, and started experimenting with Arginine and other supplements. I gave PE another try once or twice.
I remember at this point certain injuries were occurring slightly more frequently, and I’d need more rest afterwards.
There was a juncture I specifically remember where I needed 3 weeks just to get back to normal.
Last summer, after the best session of ballooning I’ve ever had in my life, I remember that following week suddenly experiencing less morning wood, and what can only be described as my penis becoming slightly shriveled and firm, even when unerect.
I had experienced that type of injury before, but in this case it lasted for MONTHS AND MONTHS AND MONTHS.
I don’t experience as much “shriveledness”, but I still do get sore after multiple masturbation session whereas in the past before PE I wouldn’t.
I’ve also noticed what at least I believe is a decrease in size and plumpness when soft. I remember as a teenager walking out of the shower, patting down my dick, and it being nice, big, and plump.
Nowadays, well it’s not.
I don’t get morning wood anymore. I don’t get spontaneous erections anymore when in the past I did.
My manual erections are fine and dandy besides maybe a slight loss in girth and soreness after just one or two masturbation sessions.
For reference, I’m only 21 years old. This shit should not be happening, and as OP admitted, I too have suffered from BDD, my therapist has said so himself.
I’ve even had plastic surgery because of it, but that’s a whole ‘nother story.
BOTTOM LINE - while I don’t have erectile dysfunction exactly, I think PE can be dangerous especially when your an avid masturbator like me, and this site should, IMO, have more warnings on it, because when you’re putting as much pressure as we are on our dicks, in comparison to how much pressure we put in the weight-room, it’s too much sometimes, and CAN end up in bad injuries.
At this point, I’ll just be glad I don’t have erectile dysfunction completely, and schedule an appointment with my doctor in the near future, and be honest and just tell him everything.
It would be nice if mods like SS were more empathetic and less of a hard-ass on some of these guys, because I’m one of them.

And still is. I have told about the physical changes with my penis, and I have now got in contact with somebody else that got way better after 14 months of “rest”. I think we have the same, slight nerve damage, and I am still having a following up with a new urolog, this one is more experienced (I hope).
I feel for you my man.
When you have BDD it’s hard to go to a doctor of any kind and talk about these things because for us little imperfections become overblown, and a lot of these so-called specialists have no time for empathy or common sense.
I went to a urologist last year and the guy was blunt and rude, and didn’t help at all.
I was too embarrassed to explain I had done PE, because I figured he would look down on me.
I swear to God, though, if this takes 14 months to cure I might just sue Thunders, or at least beat someone up.
That shit is just not cool, especially for guys like us who base their happiness on outward stability.
