Grower to shower ?

So have many guys here transitioned from a grower to a shower ?

I’m about 5 months into PE and I can say I’ve gained almost 1” flaccid hang length, likely gained some girth too but I didn’t measure it to start. None the less I’m still pretty small compared to my erect size.

Still far from a shower, is it really possible to convert? How long would it generally take?

And is there any PE excessive that help this form of PE

Thanks

Yes it’s possible to convert over time. I was a grower when I started. There isn’t a timetable. I just know I’m much more apt to show now. Even when cold and flaccid I’m at 5.75”. It wasn’t that way before.

great to know, did you ever research the theory behind why some are growers vs showers?

I recently read its from blood circulation and etc from the angion PE promoter janis, but some of his stuff is a bit out in left field, plus I was always a athlete as a kid and in decent shape.

It’s not something I investigated. It just happened over time. I do believe going commando has helped a lot. Hour after hour of letting gravity work over years.

I was always a grower with a flaccid in the 2.5”-3” range. Since starting PE I’ve transitioned to a shower in the 5”-5.5” x 4.5” range. Started going commando and always wear a stainless steel cockring behind the glans during the day for a little weight assist. Also do fowfers at night.

It’s inevitable that you’ll “show” more after doing PE—the question is to what degree. But if you’re not showing more, you’re doing something wrong.

Now, I have a hanging cock, whereas before it was kind of a single, triangular unit: balls and dick.

What I would love is a beast that drapes down the side of my leg, halfway to my knee. Alas, this is not so. At least, not yet.

Yes I believe you can, but that is only based on my experience. Pre-PE, I was never a shower. I could fluff myself to a big flacid hang, but it wouldn’t stay that way long if I didn’t give it a few tugs every few seconds. After a little over a year of PE, I don’t always have a better flaccid hang, but I would say 75% of the time I do, so my average hang is much better. I have not ever measured it flaccid, just because it all varies so much from day to day, hour to hour, etc, so I am only going off the eye test. After 3-4 months of consistent, warmup, stretch and pump, My wife began to comment frequently that I have a big penis bulge and on good hang days I catch her staring at my crotch sometimes. When naked i would guess the difference between my old “typical” flaccid and my “after a year of PE typical” flaccid is about 1.25-1.5” in length and about a 3/8” to 1/2” in girth. That change makes a HUGE difference in the flaccid appearance. Man I wish I would have discovered the world of PE when I was much younger.

I don’t remember what I was when I started. During my first PE journey I was a major shower. Recently my flaccid has been smaller in proportion to my erection, but my erection bigger. I think it’s a good sign. I’ve noticed that men that are growers tend to have much better erection quality and I think being a shower or a grower is an indication of how collagenized the penis is. I’m not absolutely certain about all this though.

Haha, I feel your pain man. I’d definitely have an 8 by now had I stuck with it since I discovered it as a late teen.

Is that really necessary though? As a late teen, the only action my unit got was from my right hand! I should imagine most men to have the same experience.

-My pre PE stats where also 2.5-3”, now im 4~5 ish but flaccid is hard to measure .

I definitely go commando now or boxers, as a teen and kid I always wore tighty whites so I wonder if that contributed to me being a grower.
Now my erections have always been strong and great, converting to more of a shower is more just me own personal mental state i guess.

How often to you wear the ring, Im reading mixed opinions on the benefits of a all day ring for PE. I have some silicone rings but havent tried them much yet.

-I also wish i discovered PE when i was younger, especially as a teen. Its tough being a grower because others dont understand it. I didn’t dare take my unit out in front of a girl completely flaccid, so there was always a scene of mental pressure.

Luckily It always worked when I needed it to besides one time of me being to drunk.

I do not consider my ss ring to be an all day cock ring. Mine is very loose, is held on by my glans. The sole purpose is to give some weight to keep my flaccid from shrinking up. Obviously if I did get an erection it could be a problem for tightness but I just manage it. I’ve also had one drop off after getting hit with a cold air blast. Luckily caught it in my pant leg before I kicked it across the room.

I’ve tried very stretchy silicon crings around the base and can only wear them for an hour or two until they start pinching. They just don’t work for me.

So this is from a trial that was reported by Shower vs. Grower: Does It Really Matter? And 7 Other FAQs, the sources for the article are listed below.

Does your penis grow more than 1.5 inches when you get erect? You’re a grower. Less than 1.5 inches? You’re a shower.

And out of the 274 reported participants, 73 (about 26 percent) of the participants were growers, and 205 were showers.

Growers experienced an average 2.1-inch change in length, and the showers had about a 1.2-inch change in length.

It states that this could likely be due to the elasticity and/or collagen of the penis with growers have more and showers having less. Also can be influenced by age.

As for keeping your penis from turtling that is simple and painless, I use an older silicone sleeve(the thicker ones off ebay) I no longer use on my vacexetnder and roll back the front and back of the sleeve so it is even thicker and put it at the base of my penis well stretching the penis forward to get it as far back as possible. Doesn’t stretch the entire penis but still keeps my flaccid longer than it typically is. If I can I also like to give myself a very light erection after extending and apply the sleeve to trap some blood up there for short while.

Oh wow man! You found this when you were a teen?! Its probably best I didn’t. As much time as I spent jacking off, if I would have discovered this too, my parents NEVER would have gotten me out of the bathroom! 😂

Definitely not necessary in terms of how much action I was getting 😂, but it sure would have been nice to be one of the guys strutting around the locker room with no fear!
