Sign of progress
Today experimental therapy yielded some positive signs, perhaps indicator of progress.
Since yesterday test in which I believe to have found the cause of my stall to be in temperature due to acoustic issues, I did the following experiment today.
First, I tested an old vacuum cup that I used to wear some 10-12 years ago. As my girth grew up too much and the size of my glans too, this cup now covers only 3/4 of the glans and very tight. However, the purpose of this experiment was to expose as much penis as possible with as little interruption as possible. To the cup I added a short sleeve to keep it in place and in vacuum, but again, short enough to expose as much penis as possible.
Second, I only used 1 transducer. I found yesterday in my test while measuring temperature that at the high setting temperature went up TOO FAST and TOO HIGH. So much that the burning became intense as the thermometer register 41+ degrees celsius in less than a minute and even caused systemic effects. While testing I realized that the medium setting is much more stable and keep a much better pace at elevating temperature.
Keep in mind, all this time I have been using 2 transducers at the same time next to each other in order to cover a bigger area of the penis. However, during previous temperature tests, I struggled to pass 38 degrees, and never really felt a strong burn as a consequence of high temperature or rapid raise of it. That fact made me hypothesize that I have been having an acoustic problem interfering with sound waves and therefore temperature stability. Were does that come from? too early to tell. The fact is, the problem seems to be resolved by minimizing area covered of the penis plus using only one transducer.
With that setup, I performed a semi full therapy today consisting of 25 mins of stress relaxation from 1kg to 2.5kg, followed by 25 mins of US relaxing up to 3.5kg. I kept the weight a little less than usual, and did not do any manual stretching or exercise. Therefore “semi” full therapy. The purpose of today was mostly measure pure US results under these experimental variations.
As a result:
Pre BPFSL: 23cm
Post BPFSL: 23.8cm
Strain: 3.4%
Before measuring post BPFSL I am squeezing as much fluid buildup off the glans in order to achieve a more accurate reading.
From here my intention is to do another therapy tomorrow extending US to 30 minutes and relaxing to 4-4.5kg and assess results.
Although the strain of today is positive, it is too early to tell if I have finally found a solution for my plateau. Only 1-2 cycles will give a better perception, but I am optimistic that I will start gaining again.
