ED due to using an extender

I am really sad. I wore an extender without using the foam protector and only used the silicon ring. I wore it for months at a time and to an excruciating pain. Since then all my sexual encounters have been train wrecks, I can barely hold an erection on my own, it’s as if all I can enjoy is oral sex now and even then, I’m not hard as a rock like before, more like a wormesque feeling. I am really thinking about suing the company that sold me this device, and I’m wondering if anyone else has had similar experiences with an extender. All I wanted to do was to better myself and I’ve ruined my sex life..

I think I damaged the veins around the glans because the hold was too tight, is there any healing hope?

As soon as I go for penetration I become soft and look like an idiot trying to get my thing in there. If I masturbate as soon as I stop stimulating my penis I become soft.

I really need help here, I am desperate, this is an invention of the devil, and it didn’t even work..

I have to add that I never had any kind of ED problems BEFORE wearing the extender..

Thanks.

I have to add that I never had ANY KIND of ED problem BEFORE wearing it.

I had some of the same problems when not wearing anything around to protect from the silicone tube. The EQ just went away.

Now I use a band aid wrapping around below the head and I’ve actually gotten better EQ than ever. I think you should leave the ADS for an extended time to heal, and if you decide to start over again, figure out a protection that feels comfortable for you. The foam protector didn’t do any good to me so I now use a wrap around which works good. :)

Firstly, how old are you and how long per day did you wear the device and so on.

And there is hope, you will heal over time and learn to do things in moderation.

The problem is, I’ve stopped using the jes-extender more than two years ago, and still have issues.

Take a month off from all PE. Minimal masturbation, sexual activity to allow healing/recovery.

Use heat via Rice sock, warm shower, low temp heating pad, etc, a few times every 24 hours.

In many PE attempts, even with Extender usage, “more is better” is self defeating, as you have experienced. Always avoid doing anything that ends up causing pain. Stop, take a rest break, look closely as to whats going on. Then take corrective action.

Good luck, you will recover. I am in year 2 of Extender wearing. Slow & steady, I am not trying to compress 3 years of wearing into less than a year.

I am 26, I’m not sure how long I wore it for, I don’t remember, I know I followed instructions, I’m sure it was for several hours a day.

Thanks, you gave me a glimpse of hope, it’d be a shame if this situation persisted. A REAL shame.

Yes, I notice length routines don’t help EQ, but jelqing and pumping do, assuming you do them lightly. Stick to light jelqing and kegeling and light pumping, you’d be back to full strength in no time.

Wearing devices that restrict blood flow for hours a day will cause substantial damage over time.

I built my own mechanical device that clamps below the head tightly and cannot be worn safely for more that 35-30 minutes and must be monitored for loss of sensation in the glans even with time restrictions in place.

I wear my stretcher for half an hour at a time in a hot bath with special attention paid to loss of EQ after the fact.

On several occasions I experienced ED and adjusted the duration and intensity of the stretching so that normal functioning would return.

A substantial rest from anything but light stretching and maybe pumping and possibly clamping (which I love) will allow you to heal.

Do you mean the noose ring, clenching the head, or the silicone ring at the base of the penis?

I ask because I don’t remember ever seeing a foam protection around the noose end, and the only proper ring should be the one at the base.

By the way, forget PE for some (long) time, and explain to your doctor what you just said here on TP.

I’m talking about the noose of course, that’s how I damaged the veins I think.

Other than what Makemelarge said, I can add that if you haven’t lose sensitivity hardly the problem you are having can due to the extender; the issue with an improper use of extenders is possible nerve damage, but this would cause loss of sensititvity. Probably your EQ problems have a different cause.

I know this isn’t relevant to your problem, but did you make any length gains wearing the extender?

None, I recognize my penis as it ever was, maybe a little vascularity gained.
