Cycling Everyday, Forever

[riseagain]

I usually pump most every morning while using the VED, for about 30 minutes. But when I am working away from home I only inflate in the morning. The VED is maybe three times a week. Then at night I also inflate for about 30 minutes. So twice a day for me. I am seven months out of surgery. Up to a full 7 1/4 inches. Happy so far.

I was never instructed, or knew, about cycling after my implant. The only times I inflated was for sex. That did happen a lot either with the wife or me playing with my new toy. At month 5 I found Frank Talk and learned I was supposed to be cycling every day to re-gain size.
My guess is in the 13 years fighting ED I'd already lost length. After my implant I know I lost more. Not sure if cycling would have helped? At month 5 I started cycling daily for 30+ minutes. In 2 months time my gain was under 1/8 of an inch in length and about 1/8 inch gain in girth. I gave up the cycling routine then.

my 6" and 5.5" are enough for me, if it will help to remove the pain in the shaft at the tips of the glans and soften the pump I will pedal for 3/4 months, then I will lift it only 3 times a week when I fuck and when I will feel like it, no routine for me

Something I never quite understood: When speaking with Dr. Eid a week or so after my implant, I asked him if aggressive cycling would help me regain lost length. He replied "Not really" and offered no other alternatives. That was about a year ago -- since then I have cycled, Perito'd, VED'd, and used various methods of glans engorgement, resulting in regaining my pre-op length and girth as well as significant additional gains in both.

In all other respects I had a superior experience with him -- could not have been better -- but on this issue I feel that the advice of the younger guys like Hakky and Perito have greatly helped me.

Currently once daily with an occasionally missed day when traveling or schedule doesn’t allow. My attitude is similar to Frank’s about size and I didn’t get an implant to take on a part time job tending to my dick everyday. Besides, once daily is about all my scrotal skin can tolerate.

I did hot bath soaks to the 8 week mark and now cycle when I wake up in the morning like LS mentioned. I pump to the max along with several reps of the Perito exercise and have been gradually increasing the holding time. No plans to add VET anytime soon. My plan is to continue the daily routine until I’m back to pre-implant length (1/2” to go) plus can comfortably stay inflated for 2hrs of sexual activity at varied hardness. When those two goals are achieved, I’ll probably drop back to a couple times a week to fill in the gaps between sex use.

Still too early to say for me (currently 16 days post-op) but my doc said that I've have to cycle 2x's/day for at least 3 months in order to maximize "growth."

Have an appt w/my doc next week and I'm going to ask him what kind of growth that I can reasonably expect w/in 3 months and how much more (if at all) I should continuing cycling after that.
