Are gains more permanent by hanging or by using manual methods?

I noticed a few PEers who reported loss of their gains after they stopped PEing.

Now my question is, are gains acquired through hanging more permanent than those acquired by manual techniques like jelqing?

What’s your opinions?

Well, that depends on the nature of the gain. Girth, if it is due to alot of swelling or fluid build-up instead of tunica stretch tends to fade. If the additional legnth is partially a function of the soft tissue glans/CS and PC exercises are neglected, perhaps a slight decrease will occur. I am a minimal gainer in L and I have not noticed much if any decrease, but my gain is shy of an inch. Larger gainers may comment differently. I don’t neccesarily think that it is a question of manual versus hanging per se, but do remember alot of manual techniques do make significant use of the PC muscles.
