Question about how actual growth happens
First, I’m new here, but have been watching, learning and reading for over a decade with an on again/off again relationship with PE. I love what it can do and the way it makes me feel, but life would often get in the way, and you know how that goes. Anyway, I seem to be in a good place to pick it back up and am excited to start again.
I love this forum and all the knowledge that everyone brings to the table. Thanks.
I have a medical background and know enough to know physiology and anatomy, but in all of the reading I’ve done, there are a few things for which I haven’t been able to find the answers and I’m hoping that someone can help with some clarification.
1. Relative to sex or masturbation after a routine, are we getting growth by keeping the penis in the “enlarged” state for a period of time like a good muscle pump, or is it just the act of the routine that does it, like a great workout? If it’s the former, does having sex and seeing it diminish in size after ejaculation (as happens with me) unimportant in the whole process (along with the accompanied decrease in testosterone)?
2. How exactly does the penis tissue grow? Are we multiplying cells or are we simply getting hypertrophy and if it’s the latter, what cells exactly are being enlarged?
3. I’ve heard many posters compare muscle development (I.e.-gym routines) to PE, but I can’t seem to understand how the two are the same. Physiologically, the tissue of the penis is radically different than muscle in the pecs or biceps and the workouts have radically different effects physiologically. We’re not exercising muscle like we would when lifting at the gym. We’re stretching and forcing blood, which is fundamentally different. The recovery is very different and if the penis were to develop in a similar manner to a guy with a 34 inch chest becoming a 40 inch chest in a year, well, you get the point. I don’t think I understand how rest days or time off play a role because I admit that I don’t really understand how growth actually happens. Rest is useful when there is muscle damage and it’s allowed to repair. I don’t understand the true muscle damage here and with the increased vascular supply, it should recover way faster because of the body’s ability to get the cascade of inflammatory by products to the area quicker.
Note that I am not a doubter in any way. I’ve seen the gains happen in my own life, so I know it’s for real. I just want to understand more about it and hoping that someone can give me some sort of answer.
Thanks in advance.
