Size Fluctuations

Some of us have been discussing how penis size is not static and varies.

My size fluctuates between 7 5/8” to 8 1/8” length and 5 15/16” to 6 1/4” girth. Most often, I measure 7 7/8” x 6.0”.

I’m trying to establish that size should be stated as a range not as a fixed number.

What are your experiences?

For me usually at the same erection level there’s little difference.

But when pumping, sometimes at the same pressure and same erection level there’s a good difference specially in length

I agree, although I find it difficult to properly quantify my erection level on a scale of 1-10 because its so subjective and virtually impossible to put an accuracy to it. It’s like today, I’d “guess” I was around an 7.5 to 8 erection level.. But that’s a guess.

If anything I think the range should also include a scale similar to my below example.

BPEL 6.8” EG 5.8” @ EQ 8
BPEL 7” EG 6” @ EQ 9
BPEL 7.3” EG 6-1/8” @ EQ 10

Or some similar scaling system.

I whole heartily agree…with both your profile name big booty fan..haha and your outlook. But for real for me it does vary my best EQ is nbpel 6 5/8 and 5 1/2 mid girth. Now let’s say I just hung six sets and I’m trying to get hard I’m not going to hit those heights my cock is just too tired. Heat and cold play a role as does ED meds also pumping plays a role in obvious temp gains for me. So yes for me it definitely fluctuates. Now I hope it starts fluctuating upward I’ve been hanging six weeks and just hit 10 hours a week between 12.5 lbs at my max and 5 lbs at my greatest fatigue. An 1/8 of that 5/8 is new length since hanging so I’m excited.

Yeah I think it’s natural, but definitely magnified when doing PE because of the various stages of trauma/fatigue/recovery we go through.

For me, I’m finding the ‘range’ more helpful in relation to the subject of PI. Typically I’ve read about PIs, and specifically negative PIs, as far as reduced EQ and difficulty getting and maintaining erections. For a while it didn’t exactly click with me because even after intense hanging I still felt I had good EQ etc. I’ve found that personally ( and maybe for others ) my negative PIs are much more subtle.

My penis always remains functional, but tracking my BPFSL daily has given me insight into when I need to take a day off.

For example, the day before yesterday I measured 6.8125 BPFSL. Yesterday it was barely 6.75 or a bit under. Mentally I wanted to do PE, but I took the day off. Today, I measured just about 6.875. This is a pattern I’m seeing consistently.

So yeah, to summarize: I think fluctuations are good for judging when you need rest.

To judge gains progress, I think that’s where the importance of consistent measuring comes in. Despite fluctuations, the data will clearly show consistent progress over time.

Impossible to measure now she takes it all in before long any other times I would say the variance is about half inch some days . My Doc told me it is all about testosterone levels do vary every day and how horny and ready I am.

I always take into consideration only my highest measurement. It shows the maximum potential of my penis size.

My measurements can vary. Not by too much. But I always go with the highest since it is measured and it is there and it can happen.

It’s always nice to see a new number on the measuring tape!

So would it be accurate for me to claim an 8x6+ even though I rarely reach those dimensions?

My EL varies in about a 0.4” range depending on EQ. If I just get a casual boner and measure it right away, it’s about 6.7”. If I then edge for 5-10 minutes, it goes up to 7.1” consistently. The max I’ve ever measured is a 7.2” but not consistent. This range is stays the same from day to day and week to week, and when it changes, I know I’ve gained.

Max measurements are fine for stating sizes or tracking gains. The max sizes we measure do happen during sex when fully aroused and about to cum, so why not use them for our stats? I prefer to use just below the max, the measurement I believe I could get any day of the week.

I think when comparing size to scientific studies though, it’s more appropriate to use the middle of the range, or possibly even the lower end of the range. Think about it, how many of these studies do you think the guy had time edge for 10 minutes, and then get the researcher to jam the ruler into the fat pad at full power and measure the boner as fast as possible before it goes down by 0.1” which we all know only takes a matter of seconds? Almost none of them. They are probably measuring the lower end of the range.

I’m not as familiar with my girth range, but when comparing myself to the studies, I’m taking about 0.2” off my length.

Aren’t some of the studies drug induced? Those measurements would be likely above our natural max dimensions.

That’d be like saying I could claim 9x6.5” despite seldom seeing either number and never together.

Maybe drug induced studies do match our max dimensions, maybe not. No personal experience with erection inducing drugs.

I agree.

Seems dishonest, even to myself. I mean I only recently reached 2” glans diameter (measured several times) and despite being less than 1/4” from 2” glans length I don’t count it. I know it’ll take another month or two for that at this rate and it just is the natural progression.

Pretending I’m ahead only makes fluctuations and losses feel way worse.
