"Donut" Prevention - One Solution

Thank you for your response peforeal, I ordered a pump within the last couple days, and I would like to make sure I do not get the donut effect.

I still would like to know if you lube the entire shaft while wearing the wrap, or just the part of it that is not wrapped. Thank you in advance for your response!

Inspecta,

I lube just the part of the area that is not wrapped, i.e. the glans and the part of the shaft below the wrap.

peforeal: I’ve tried the self-adhering tape. I’ve tried cock rings, rubber bands, condoms, and even a PVC coupler. No matter what I do aggressive pumping always gives me a doughnut. To me the only real doughnut prevention is, to borrow your own term, RESPONCIBLE PUMPING. That is not to exceed 10 in. hg. for more than 15 minutes at a time. Three 10-minute sets at 8 to 10 in. hg. With a lot of massaging in between sets and staying as erect as possible seems to get the best results in the cylinder for me. But don’t get me wrong. If I’ve got a hot date with a new partner that is most likely to take place in the dark, I’ll pump up my girth as fat as possible and not worry about the doughnut. In the dark a fat dick is a fat dick. But any newbes out there who are considering pumping for the first time I would strongly advise avoiding these little spare tires at all costs. To paraphrase a quote I recall from Avocet 8, I believe, or perhaps it was peforeal’s quote, “once you compromise this tender area, it will become that much eaiser to do it again.” But one thing for sure, If you do get a lumpy dick from aggressive jelqing or hanging, responsible pumping will take a base ball bat shaped dick suffering from a bad Hangers’ Doughnut and smooth out the lymph fluid distributing it more evenly along the shaft to make it look better, but the only real cure for a bad one is time.

> RESPONCIBLE PUMPING. That is not to exceed 10 in. hg. for more than 15 minutes at a time.

I wrap the donut area with Theraband, and I usually stay between 3.5 to 5.5” Hg, sometimes touching 6” or a little over for a short time, and I still get a bit of a donut when I’m done. 8-10 inches? Jeez.

BG and Hobby,

I typically wrap only the areas where I have been susceptible to doughnuting, i.e. for me the area directly below and around the glans.

Now, I wrap this area very tight with the ace self-adhesive bandage. This is important. If you do only a firm or somewhat loose wrap, the doughnut will still occur. Also, be sure to leave the wrap on for at least 30-60 minutes after you’re done pumping ( or longer for an ADS) to be sure that fluid redistribution doesn’t reconcentrate in the “doughnut” area. I hope this helps to explain more of what I do.

I can now pump big and avoid doughnuts by choice, and before I did this I would always experience some kind of temporary fluid buildup below the glans area.

Cheers Peforeal,

Tried this the other night, went and bought some self adheisive wrap, pumped that night, had some serious pressure in the tube, and no donut effect.

Cheers mate…….

big-kiwi,

That’s good to read. I can now pump on low vacuum for hours (with many breaks) and achieve a hugely thick dick, evenly proportioned and no doughnuts. That’s the way pumping should always be! The more I do this, the more permanent the girth gains are becoming week after week. When I take multi-day pumping breaks,the good effects still last.

I love some of these words we’ve come up with. Pretty soon Webster’s will have to publish a special PE edition for words like DOUGHNUTTING or TURTLING.

Peforeal. I’m sitting here with pump and self-adhering tape in hand. Going to give it another try because I’d love to be able to withstand more intense pressure. How do you get the tape to adhere and stay on with a well-lubed dick?

Big Girtha,

I will recycle/reuse the ace self-adhesive tape for awhile. It’s less rough in texture once it’s been used and rinsed. It’s also more comfortable for me if I wet it down. Because with repeated use, it will lose its adhering properties I keep it tightly on by using a 1-inch strip of black bicycle rubber tire tubing (cheap from any store selling bikes, i.e. Walmart, K-Mart, …). You can always use a piece of duct tape instead of the 1-inch strip of tire tubing. See attached pics. I hope they help.

Peforeal

Cool:

Thanks for the pics. The inner tube looks interesting. Been trying to find wider rubberbands. I’ll give it a shot.

Big Girtha,

They work better than any rubberband or similar product I’ve ever been able to find, and they’re cheap to make.

I’ve used cut out strips of rubber inner tubing for over 2 years for all kind of purposes including cinching off my ballsac to prevent my testicles from being sucked into the cylinder during pumping. Works like a charm.

Hints (based on years of my own trial and many errors):

1. Stretch out the cut rubber strips first to loosen the elasticity and make them easier to stretch around your dick, your ballsac, etc.

2. If using the strips directly around any skin area, use lube (like vaseline intensive care lotion) on the interior for comfort.

3. For greater “firmness”, sometimes it works best to use two strips, one around the other, creating a double thickness and better holding structure. Or, you can cut a 3-4”-strip and fold it into a double thickness. It’s often easier to maneuver the two separate thinner strips, rather than one doubled over thicker strip. It all depends on what area you’re using it.

Peforeal

Yeah, this is great.

I just started a new routine which feels real good:
15 min pumping 10hg
20min jelqing
10min pumping at 10 hg

I do this at least once a day.

I used to get terrible donut from this. I guess that being uncut doesn’t help…
I tried peforeal’s wrapping, I don’t have the donut anymore. I use Johnson & Johnson’s waterproof tape and it works great. It’s better than condom pumping end you don’t have to buy a new condom box every 3 days just for your pumping needs.

Hey, hey, hey, so what about wrapping after you have pumped? Does this have the same effect?

So what about doing 3 sets of pumping, but only wrapping under the glands on the last set to prevent a donut? [Considering that you pump at low pressures: Below 10 HG] I’m thinking that you could pump that area as well as the rest of the penis for the first 2 sets, and then use the last set to bring down the doughnut… does this sound good? Has it been done?

powpow,

Glad this worked for you.

Peforeal

Marco,

I’ve done this also, and it works to reduce or eliminate the doughnut.
