New York Texan's PRP Experiment

I paid a doctor big bucks for the name brand eswt (gainswave) treatments, then I bought my own chinese eswt unit which cost about the same as 3 gainswave treatments. Over 3 years later and around 100 self treatments my chinese unit is still going strong and is an effective tool for combating ED. Why would anyone waste money going to a doctor for eswt treatments when it is easy and extremely inexpensive doing it yourself?

Even if you think the chinese units are not as effective as the high end units the doctor’s office has, just add another treatment to even it up.

But one foundational truth we have learned from our PE efforts, every dick is different and what works for one may not work for another.

I have found that 70mj and 12 hz (or lower) works well for me. I am still testing wand placement, but am leaning towards 3 on each side of the penis and then each crura, with minimum 250 pulses each location.

One potential knock on these chinese units is that their depth of penetration of the shock wave is not as great as the high end units. One article I found discussed the comparison and while admitting that getting definitive results between units is difficult, they reached the conclusion that the shock wave of the low end units had a quality signal at 1.5 cm, vs 2.5 cm or more for the high end units. By treating both sides of my penis I feel I am getting a good coverage even with the potentially less penetration of the shock wave.

Per an earlier post I used the Trimix 11/9 to get a maximum erection for measure and to push gains. I still think a more regular use has benefits, along with other protocols.
I had been lamenting the apparent lesser stretch I was getting from a more standard traction device versus the SD. I outlined in the members’ section how it occurred to me that I now should be measuring to the bottom of the coronal ridge, rather than top/end of head, because a strap connection has the effect of compressing the head, while the SD expands it (a very nice feature). I had been able to measure under 7” to the ridge when I last measured while in traction…today 7”-plus. I also used the cm measure and show 18cm….a good thing! I will try to use this measure (“BOR” or bottom of ridge) to track progress via this type of device. While the full measure to the tip is 8” +/-, that is a compressed head, and I know my actual head length is well over 1 1/2”. May be back on track!

Impressive gains man!

By the way how did you manage to get a prescription for trimix? My doc refuses to prescribe me that, he rather prescribes me caverject.
Also, how many hours does your erection last?

Thanks! I am surprised he won’t Rx Trimix. Perhaps try to locate a men’s clinic as an alternative source? They specialize in prescribing such things, among other assistance. I have never used Caverject, and I would presume it can accomplish much the same result, but is, I suspect far more expensive as a name brand drug. You can titrate dosage to experiment to a hive longer or shorter affect, but I squally shoot for at least 3 hours of very hard, with following hours that vary. What I may do, depending on time on hand, is add a rubber ring to base to trap blood to fully engorge again, remove, repeat, etc. along with the low pressure pump I mentioned.

I have often wondered if trimix can cause fibrosis and does one need to increase the dosage after long term usage?

21.2 cm to tip while in stretcher. 18.4 cm to “BOR”. Heated pump, stretch, some with heat, shortened heated pump in narrow tube, back in stretcher under heat. Seems to be some gains still.

I have been fairly busy over the last month…but have been fairly consistent at least with heated pumps and stretching (via the rod ADS). Measured a short while ago, show a bone pressed 21.5+ cm in stretcher! 19 cm BOR….Not sure this has translated to erect lengths yet, but will need to check! Merry Christmas to me!

BPEL: still at +/-19.5 cm, just under 6” girth.
My sorry now 63 year old self is not what it used to be!
