desensitization problem

Hi All,

I’ve been pumping for about 3 1/2 months now. I’ve noticed a definite desensitizing effect that I don’t like at all. It’s way too hard for me to cum during sex. I’ve always lasted a long time, but now it’s way longer than my wife or I can take. Do I need to give up pumping completely, or just lower my times and pressures? I pump 5 days a week, @ 4-10 for 3 ten to fifteen minute sets. My dick is also way darker in color now. Is that permenant?

Thanks in advance for your help!

I know this will seem hard to do, but don’t go over 6 in. hg. for a week and see if things improve, especially the color, and then the feeling. Also pump up slowly, stop at 4, then 5, then 6. The high pressures and rapid pressure changes lead to the darkness, and may also effect the sensation.

fingercrossed,

In addition to gpprent101’s suggestions, you may also want to switch to pumping every other day, in order to give your dick more frequent time to recover. That should probably help with the darkening issue. Have you taken any lengthier breaks since you started pumping? You could try a week off, and see what happens in terms of improvement.

Our dicks all react differently. So you need to experiment in finding what pumping patterns work best for you.

Thanks to you both. I think I’m going to incorporate both of your answers: take a break, then do every other day at low pressures. I don’t want to quit as I’m just starting to see my first difference; I’m an inch and a half longer in BPFL and I’m hoping that this is a precurser to non BP and/or erect length.

Wow, I am glad somebody else brought this up. I am having the exact same problem. I can fuck until the cows come home and I cant get off, AT ALL. I have spoken to Captnhook a couple of times about this and told him that I have even faked a few orgasms just to finish the job and yes, he laughed at me. I get a rock hard hardon and can have sex for an endless amount of time. I know this sounds like whining but it is a problem. I am getting a slight discoloration problem but not real bad.

Thanks for the advice guys I really appreciate it.

I too, am seeing the ruler creep up a bit, certainly not like fingerscrossed but I am starting to break thru my 7.25” plateau that I have had for the last few months. Yeahhhh!!!!!

It’s even hard for me to jack off to orgasm, though I get really hard. I’m taking a break until the sensitivity comes back.

Hey 789, unfortunately my only big gain is in stretched flaccid length. I’m hoping that is a sign of good things to come, though.

I have had the same problem with rubbing one off too. I want more flaccid gains and I am liking the fact that my erect gains are beginning to creep again.

I did notice that when I laid off the pumping that my sensitivity comes back.

After about 2 weeks off, my sensitivity seems back to normal.I’m beginning to pump again for shorter periods, every other day. Penis color is still darker. but that doesn’t really bother me too much.

Thanks all, very sincerely, for your help!

fingerscrossed: I noticed a similar desensitization with multiple sets each day. Now that I’m doing one set (20minutes max and in the morning) I don’t have the problem. I’m also taking at least 3 rest days during every 14. Like you I had to quit for a few weeks to get a good start on recovery so just be patient and don’t jump in too hard too soon.

And yes, I’m dark too.

This concerns me too; I am just starting out and have modest ambitions: I am 6.75 BPEL and 6.0 EG; an inch in length and 0.5 in girth would be fine and I don’t plan to pump or hang or take supplements (I am not a muscleman…) just kegel and jelk …

but before starting I do have problems cumming during intercourse.

Seems to be a dual issue; Mrs G really likes to masturbate her clit on my glans which is all very well and gives her a high time, but by the time she has finished my gans is too tender!

Whereas the shaft by that stage is desensitised, and needs a firm grip and a lightening fast movement to get me off - which means I jerk it off ‘cos she can’t manage it … though if she licks my sac while I work, I get off damn quickly!

However if this is a problem BEFORE I start PE, is there a risk jelking will make it worse?
