Can masturbation replace VED for size maintenance?

[Lifeabroad]

I have a weird question regarding size maintenance.
Since June of this year i am on 5mg daily cialis. Unfortunately, i noticed that my morning wood, which came back after last three years with help of cialis, is getting weaker now. I suspect that i have a venous leak since i was 21, but last two years are getting noticeably worse.

I know about ved therapy to prevent size loss, but would masturbation (i am stil able to get good erections with cialis), be enough to preserve my size, if morning wood deteriorates further? I am single, and i just moved back to my parents house, mainly for work, and it is not the best conditions for a daily ved pump.

Whats your thoughts thoughts on that?
Can masturbation help to maintain size?
What would be the difference from ved?
I know my question might sound stupid, but my dick is not big in the first place, so the topic is pretty sensitive and important to me

Don't think there is any comparison there. A VED stretches the penile tissues out, masturbation does not.

Yeah, but neither nocturnal, nor random erections do…
I am interested in preserving size, not restoring it.
Or am i getting something wrong anyways?

Why not do both? Cover your bases.

Probably a water pump would be easier to do in private(shower time). However that doesn't solve the "Where am I going to hide the pump dilemma?"

Exactly, lol
I shouldn’t have said „house“, we live in a flat, so it makes things even more complicated.

For some weird reasons cialis doesn’t seem to work that well any more, even though i have been taking it for 5 months with good success. I guess my leak is getting worse.
I have had Covid a couple of weeks ago. Last year i noticed my erections got super weak after my first Covid also. I wonder if it is a coincidence or a correlation.
Anyways, i have to figure out somehow how to start getting pumping without my family noticing it.
Somehow i got with masturbation alone to this point without significant size loss. But now that my nocturnal erections are almost gone, i am stressed out as hell. I am not a big guy down there in the first place, so losing any millimeters would be concidered critical by me

I have been pumping recreationally (not for sex act) now for several years and the girth increase is impressive. Went from a Nathan's Famous to Braturwurst, about double diameter. Wife is impressed. Length grew initially maybe 1"+ or so but now no more. I pump almost every day were not having sex (or sick, traveling, etc.) for maintenance. girth is more than sufficient for recipient now. I do 3x10 in pumps. I use injections on top of anorgasmia where we go 40-60 ins until she surrenders, and that's trauma enough on se days. After pumping and it partially subsides I've been mildly jelqueing now too. I self-service once a week or so after pumping and with a rec ring to keep the prostate clean.
