1 month of PE and I found out that...please advise

So I just measured my unit tonight after 1 month of PE but this time I had a measuring tape from a sewing kit (quite wide) and found that my EG measurements are all .5” smaller.

I then remeasured with a USB iphone charger cable (acting like non elastic string) and the measurements are the ones recorded in my signature. The cable seems to fit nice around the unit without any loose part.

I’m wondering what’s going on because it’s hard to know my real measurements and if I gain.

Here are a few questions I’m wondering about:

Are different type of measuring tapes providing different results ? What about different types of strings ?

What about the placement of the string/tape (angle around the shaft), can you get wrong readings from that ?

I believe the best thing you can do for yourself is to simply select one measurement method and stick to it for the duration of your PE career. For most of us, it’s more important that we measure our own progress and growth as opposed to compare ourselves with others. But that of course is subjective.

It is frustrating to go from one type of measuring to another and find that your new measurements are smaller though! I’ve been in that boat. If you want my two cents, I would trust the measuring tape numbers as more accurate, reliable and reproducible. Good luck!

What he said!^

It’s because of the width of the usb cable, gives you a different result, you shoul always measure with a thin tape because this way nothing is interfering in your measurements

Always use the same ruler or method and you will leave any anomalies out of the question.

This is the right answer.

Thanks guys. I’m just wondering why though, mathematically speaking.

When I tried to use maths to measure the circumference of my oval dick, base girth 1,75” x 2” the online calculators told me I had girth of 11”.. makes no sense.

I measured with the tape and am coming to the conclusion that the usb cable is measuring wrong indeed, how disapointing. I’ll gain though.

Using a tailor’s tape is the most accurate way to measure. As the guys said, use the same tape and hard ruler for length, this way you can see if you achieve any gains.

Good luck, my friend and happy PEing.

Yep that will be the definite way now my friend. Still I remeasured with my caveman tools (bodybuilding tape and usb cable) and the measures where higher for sure than when I started, that means I gained but I don’t know how much. I gotta find the wrong measure ratio of these tools and then I can convert these measures to get accurate before PE measures and 1st month gains. Life is good.

I bet the online calculator was asking for the minimum and maximum lengths from the center of the oval, not the widths across the oval. With min and max widths that you listed the base girth should be about 5.9”.
