Soft glans wtf? Help

Alright so I haven’t worn my extender in 9 days because I’m on vacation. I also haven’t done any manual PE in probably 6 months. I quit porn and have only masturbated to it one time a couple weeks ago. I stopped watching it like a month ago and I’ve masturbated a total of 3x since then. Last time I masturbated was like 12 days ago.

Anyways, I’ve been feeling very horny lately so I jacked off a bit in the shower tonight and I got rock hard within 25 seconds without any fantasy, just my hand. However I noticed my glans didn’t seem to fill up with blood and enlarge.. My whole dick was hard and pointing straight up but my glans just seemed small and soft.. If I kegaled the glans got fuller and harder. What causes this? I need to fix this because there’s a couple girls who want to fuck in like 3 weeks and I haven’t been laid in 4 years. I’ve also been noticing that my dick gets semi hard just when I think about sex and I can’t stop looking at hot girls so this whole no porn thing seems to be really working. Does this soft glans have anything to do with the fact that my BPFSL is longer than my BPEL? BPEL is 6.8 and BPFSL is 7.25. I’ve gained .35 in 500 extending hours.

Also, I still go soft pretty quick after stopping stimulation.

When I say I’ve gained .35 that’s only in BPFSL. I really need to start jelqing and squeezes to get more smooth muscle.

Just based on an understanding of the anatomy and what you’ve been doing I think you may have stretched the tunica without stretching the CCs. Your skin and smooth muscles now extend slightly farther than your CCs so the glands aren’t getting properly engorged. This is just a theory but I think you need to do some jelqing to catch the length of your CCs up.

The glans is normally softer than the shaft. It must be soft to act like a shock absorber while sexual intercourses. Many people don’t really notice this untill they have some PE experience; like many don’t notice their veins, or curves or whatever. If your glans gets engorged when you Kegel’, everything is ok.

The glands should be like that. the size varies for every person.

Yeah, this is pretty much what I believe. It’s the tgc theory which a lot of guys have tested on PEGym and it’s really true. I’m going to start jelqing again tomorrow. I haven’t done manual exercises in months so is it very risky to do like 60 percent erect squeezes for 5 seconds each?

It isn’t possible to stretch the tunica without stretching CC, since tunica isn’t anything else that the CC’ envelope.

Let me elaborate to correct the wording I used. It is true that the CCs are enveloped by the tunica but there is another layer of tissue that I have not seen mentioned on this site called buck’s fascia.

It is the Buck’s Fascia, not the shaft skin of the penis, that holds in place the internal structures of the phallus. Because the layer of subcutaneous fat (coloured yellow in the drawing) is not firmly anchored to the shaft skin, considerable longitudinal movement of the shaft skin is possible. Put simply, the shaft skin isn’t attached other than to the skin of the abdomen and, via the foreskin, to the sulcus. Everything between is as mobile as the sleeve of a pullover on an arm, capable of being shortened and then tensioned along its own length by virtue of being unattached to what’s underneath.

CIRCLIST - Buck’s fascia

To correct my previous statement the skin and this fascia can be stretched without stretching the tunica or the CCs.

I’m almost positive that Buck’s fascia connects to the tunica at the tip of the CCs. You can’t pull one without the other.

I can find no text indicating this.

Attached distally to the undersurface of the glans penis at the corona, Buck’s fascia extends into the perineum, enclosing each crus of the corpora cavernosa and the bulb of the corpus spongiosum and firmly fixing these structures to the pubis, ischium, and inferior fascia of the perineal membrane (urogenital diaphragm)

From

Buck’s Fascia – OPERATIVE RECIPES for Urologists

Put simply the fascia attaches directly to the glans at the corona.

Here is a good diagram for reference.

Penis Anatomy: Midsagittal section showing (clockwise) Buck’s (penile) fascia (PF), coronal sulcus (COS), foreskin (F), dartos (DT), epithelium (E), glans (GL), urethral meatus (MU), lamina propria (LP), coronal sulcus (CS), tunica albuginea (ALB), corpus cavernosum (CC), ventral urethra (U) and surrounding corpus spongiosum.

Fantom, it’s you?

Marinera,

Could the Buck’s fascia be the reason why pumping is less effective? Could it absorb most of the force created by the vacuum, this limiting the stretching of the tunica?

Odd.
Textbooks off the top of a google search:

Gray’s Anatomy: The Anatomical Basis of the Clinical Practice (40th edition) :
"At the penile neck it [Buck's fascia] blends with the fibrous covering of all three corpora."

Herbert Srebnik: Concepts in Anatomy :
"Anteriorly, the deep perineal fascia becomes the (deep) fascia of the penis (Buck's fascia), which fuses distally with the tunica albuginea penis,…"

John Mulcahy: Male Sexual Function: A guide to Clinical Management :
"Buck's fascia is attached to the perineal membrane proximally; distally, it is tightly attached to the base of the glans penis at the coronal sulcus, where it fuses with the end of the corpora."

Greg Maclennan: Hunman’s Atlas of UroSurgical Anatomy :
"At the distal end, Buck's fascia is firmly attached to the base of the glans at the coronal sulcus, where it fuses with the ends of the corpora."

Bucks’ fascia can have some role actually. I think fluids are sucked faster than blood with the pump; this fluid accumulates not only in the skin, but I think between Bucks’ fascia and Tunica, and Colle’ fascia and Buckfscia, well let’s say anywhere there is some space that fluids can pass through. This fluid is limiting the expansion of tunica and the fatter penis you see after pumping is mostly due to fluid accumulation not only in the skin, where it is obvious, but in other parts that the naked eye can’t see.
