Anything I can do to avoid this? It only happens when I go up a little extra in pressure, so it might be ok as I usually try to keep low vacuum and longer time.
Also, how do you know what is the correct pressure? I can pump to 190 mm but that hurts after a while and my erection suffers. At 140-150 I can do 2-3 * 10 min with no bad signs. But is it too low? It’s only 74 %- 79 % of max expansion.
How long before I should have permanent results from BM? 3 months? 6 months? 1 year?
Thanks guys!
Some say using some kind of lube works if you don’t wanna get those rings marks. I don’t know I have never tried it. I get those ring marks at my pelvis, several rings around my dick at the pelvis and I sometimes get them on my dick. First fe times I used my BM I was all blue around the base, it lasted for days. The ring marks I get these days goes away quite fast so I don’t care about them that much.
It’s difficult to know what’s the correct pressure. When I do shorter sessions I work my way up to maximum pressure, I pump out water now and then until I reach maximum pressure, sometimes it gets to painful so I release some pressure and wait a little while before I pump out more water. And some sessions I never reach up to the length in the tube as I managed to reach the session before, don’t get to hung up on the numbers. When I was using my bathmate allot I could reach up to about 220 mm and now it gets painful at about 210 mm but if I would use it more often I could probably go to 220 again and probably above that but my dick ain’t use to that pressure now. So don’t go crazy with the pressure, let your dick get used to the bathmate and you will get further up the tube every month.
And how long it will take to see permanent result. It’s impossible to say. But note what I said above; “further up the tube every month”. You will probably get longer in the tube quite easy in the beginning but that’s just you and your dick getting used to the bathmate. It doesn’t mean your dick is getting permanently bigger, but you will probably see a bigger flaccid hang. If you keep on using the bathmate you will probably get to a point when it’s not so easy any more to get your dick longer in the tube. Then your dick is used to the bathmate and this is where the struggle begin, getting your dick longer in the tube from here will takes longer time and dedication and this is now you can produce some real gains.
For me to produce any more gains with the bathmate I think I first must get up to the point in the tube that my dick once was used to (220mm), and from there I can produce more gains.
This is what I think but I aint no expert so I don’t know how much my opinion is worth.
