Is it common to lose length while gaining girth?

I’ve been doing high level erection jelqs for a couple of weeks now and last night I discovered that I seem to have lost about 1/8 to 1/4” in length but gained 1/4” in girth. I’m normally 6 3/4” NBPEL X 5 1/4” EG, but last night (after some light masturbating) I was 6 5/8” NBPEL X 5 1/2” EG. Is this common? I’m also debating on whether or not this is a good thing. I must admit that this is the first girth increase that I’ve ever had. When I started PE I was 5 1/4” EG. Being 6 3/4” NBPEL for such a long time, my immediate goal was to reach 7”. Getting further away from that goal kind of bothers me. At the same time, however, I’ve always heard that women like girth more than length and I think a thick dick is more impressive looking than a long one. Many members here have told me that at 6 3/4” NBPEL X 5 1/4” EG, I’d be considered fairly big. Now, at 6 5/8” NBPEL X 5 1/2” EG, would I still hold the same status? If I reached 6 1/2” NBPEL X 5 3/4” EG, what about then? What’s the fomula for calculating the volume of a cylinder? It would seem to me that would be an accurate way of determining which of two different dick measurements would be larger. Any thoughts on this subject?

I wouldn’t worry too much about it. I wouldn’t measure again for a month or so after sticking to the high erection routine. I think you’re going to find that you’ve grown in both directions.

Yes sir. I have to go with Titleist on this one. I have seen the best results when sticking to a higher erection level.

I just calculated the two differences. At 6 3/4” NBPEL X 5 1/4” EG, the volume is 14.813 cubic inches. At 6 5/8” NBPEL X 5 1/2”, the volume is 15.963 cubic inches, an increase of 1.15 cubic inches (I know these figures won’t be precise because the penis isn’t a perfect cylinder, but it’s gonna be pretty close). I don’t know about you guys, but I’d say that’s pretty good. As I was doing these figures, it occured to me that a woman’s vagina is three dimensional and not two dimensional as many of us think of our measurements (in terms of length and girth).

I’ve got to admit, I’m pleasantly surprised at your responses. I thought most advocated a moderate erection level when jelqing. I’m glad to see that there are quite a few out there that have seen good gains with high erection level jelqs. Thanks, bros.

Fa sho.

I’m glad you asked this AG. I think negative PI’s have gotten a bad wrap. Positive PI’s? Awesome, great signs, regardless of size gains or not. But, if I’m speaking for myself, I can say I’ve never gained with a moderate, positive PI-watching routine.

Every gain I’ve made in girth is preceded with diminished length/erection strength. Just think - there’s more dick to lift, give your body a bit to readjust.

Will do. Tell me what you think of this. I’m currently doing the high erection level jelqs, 200 per day, M-F. Sound good? Since I just saw this girth increase, should I continue into the weekend or give my dick its normal days of rest?

Depends on how your dick reacts to it. I, myself, can do high erection jelqs everyday and I’m fine.

Co-sign Toofpick’s thougts.

I do them everyday twice a day. I don’t count. I keep going for about twenty minutes after it won’t get any bigger. It’s not uncommon to have a 7” girth piece when I’m done. I don’t know why, but my flaccid stays fatter when I jelq as opposed to clamping.

I’ll give it a try. I don’t know about today, but maybe Sunday.

Interesting question, I have noticed a similar thing. I’ve also been doing 50-80% jelqs usually followed by manual stretching but last night I didn’t stretch. I measured myself today and I seem to have lost a few millimeters in length.

A couple of months ago I focused on girth and seemed to make some good gains but length stayed the same and since then my length gains seem to have slowed down - time to try something else I think.

I was thinking of alternating daily length and girth routines to see if my length gains will improve.

andgrowing — mind answering a couple questions?

— how long does each jelq last?
— how tight do you grip?

For what it is worth I have gained a little bit of girth recently, and it is taking a little more effort to get the BPEL measurement in my stats. On the other hand I have stopped stretching. Probably a bad idea, huh?

Each jelq is four seconds. I grip almost as tight as I can. I mostly use my left hand and after a while it starts to get tired and I have to get the assistance of my right to keep going. The expansion I feel is pretty intense.
