Men are often dissatisfied with the size of their manhood and are willing to do much to change the length or volume of the penis, but is it worth risking their health for this?
There are many techniques for penis enlargement. All of these methods can be divided into surgical and non-surgical. Surgical surgeries include surgeries that allow you to change the length and thickness of the penis, and non-surgical surgeries include different types of self-massage as well as regular use of special devices.
Manual methods: massage, gymnastics, jelqing
Manual penis enlargement techniques such as massage and gymnastics are especially popular because of a number of benefits: they do not require an investment and can be performed independently at home. These techniques allow you to not only increase the length and volume of the penis, but also have a positive effect on strength and also help increase sexual stamina and thereby increase intercourse time.
These methods of penis enlargement are based on actions such as stretching and squeezing, which help to strengthen and enlarge the penis muscles as well as ensure better filling of the cavernous tissues with blood. If done correctly, these manipulations are completely safe. However, in order not to damage the organ and avoid discomfort, it is necessary to use a lubricant. If done regularly, the results will not come long: after 1-2 months, the penis will noticeably increase in length and volume.
One of the most popular types of handheld penis massage is jelqing, which means milking in English. This is a set of specific exercises to be performed in a semi-excited state. It is worth noting that it is impossible to perform many of them in a state of full erection as the vessels can be damaged.
Mechanical methods: extensions, stretchers, vacuum pumps
Among the mechanical methods of penis enlargement, special devices are particularly popular: extenders, stretchers and vacuum pumps.
Using extenders and stretchers is one of the most effective methods to enlarge penis. They are devices for the extension, thickening and straightening of the penis that are attached directly to it. These attachments differ in design and attachment methods: the extender has two fixation points in the penis area, and the stretcher has one. However, the principle of their work is the same and aims to increase the penis, which occurs due to prolonged exposure to the force of stretching on the cavernous body and ligaments of the penis. They should be used daily for 2-3 hours, which gradually increases the time. The general course is from one to several months. With proper use of such devices, there is a noticeable increase in the length and volume of the penis after one month of use.
Another principle of influencing the penis to enlarge it is vacuum. The pump used for this is also called a vacuum pump. It is also often used to improve strength and treat erectile dysfunction. This device has a simple design: the pump is attached to a sealed cylinder containing the penis. Air is evacuated from the cylinder and creates a vacuum. This causes blood to flow to the penis, resulting in an increase in size and length. Special rings are placed in the lower part of the penis to maintain an erection. The increase in size is temporary but lasts a long time, but it is not recommended to use a vacuum pump for more than 20-30 minutes.
In many countries, surgeries to increase penis length and thickness are planned to be banned. This is due to the side effects of surgery: infections, nerve damage, decreased sensitivity and difficulty with erection. In addition, the result often does not live up to expectations. The European Association of Urology conducted a survey: of 42 men who underwent penis enlargement surgery, only 35% were satisfied with the results.
Surgical methods: ligamentotomy and phalloplasty
Surgical methods of penis enlargement are considered unsafe, but they are the most effective.
There are two types of surgeries: to increase the length of the penis and increase its thickness. Ligamentotomy or lengthening of a man's penis is performed by cutting the supporting ligament of the penis - a ligament hidden under the pubis. During the operation, this ligament is cut as deep as possible, allowing you to stretch the penis and increase its length by 3-4 cm. To prevent the penis from returning to its normal state, it is recommended after such surgery to use a stretcher that stretches the penis for several months or six months. It is worth paying special attention to the fact that a stretcher is suitable for this purpose and not an extender that is not the desired result by being attached to the base of the penis.
The increase in the thickness of the penis is called phalloplasty and occurs upon implantation of autologous fat, silicone or artificial grafts. Phalloplasty also includes surgeries to partially or completely restore the lost penis for some reason.
