Bone pressed
Bone pressed
Hi Gents. Just wondering what does Bone pressed really mean when measuring length? Does it mean pushing a ruler very hard up against your pubic bone and then measuring to the tip of your glan?
55 yo Aussie. E.D all my life. Used Viagra for years but. Went on to Injections which worked well but very inconvenient and didnt work sometimes. Implanted Jan'18 with Titan one touch 20cm/ 1.5RTE by Pro Chung in Brisbane.

I am 64 and had ED from a VL. Implanted by Dr. Ronald Anglade in Atlanta on 9/18/17. I have an AMS700LGX 21 cm via a Penoscrotal incision. Very happy with results. 6" soft and 6 3/4” x 5 5/8” hard.
Re: Bone pressed
This is definitely the way to do it. You do it the same way every time so no confusion or being unsure of length. Then write it down.
I use a wood ruler but have used a wooden pencil as well. I just mark the pencil with a sharpie.

Just be sure you mark the right "Pencil"

I was going to start a topic here eventually asking just how hard to press ! If I press to the point of "slight discomfort" I get one figure but if to the point of "pain" I get 3/16" more !
Plus the discomfort varies according to whether it's a 1" wide wood ruler or a 1/4" wide tape measure.

Re: Bone pressed
Why are you measuring? From a practical standpoint it doesn't matter as long as you're consistent. If you're doing it for bragging rights just go ahead and lie about it. You won't be the first or the last.

Re: Bone pressed
Damn. I have to say I press hard but never got an uncomfortable feeling doing it. Just press into my fat pad until I meet resistance.

Re: Bone pressed
Just an FYI- When done by and or for medical purposes, studies ect the penis is held at 90 degrees from the body as opposed to the 45 or so as shown in the image posted above by Greg. It's done that way by the Doc's that actually study those sorts of things and keeps everyone on the same page and consistent so as to be able to get honest comparable results from one source to another. Please, I'm not chiming in to disparage anyone's efforts. Just sharing... Peace
