I'm shrinking

4 Replies

What was 3 inches soft before the surgery (6 years ago) is now down to inch, on a good day 2. Happening to anyone else?

(Was going to post a picture, but didn't think it was allowed, plus NOT being computer savy, not sure how too)

Do not know if it normal but I have read a few similar posts.

Not measured it but I thought I had shrunk, My Wife say no but she thinks it thinner. Strange as I thought it now looked thicker ?

We have what we have, make good use of it !

You need to keep blood in there. My Dr said use a pump every day for about 10 minutes. I have managed to keep a shadow of myself. I usually pump, use a cock ring then go make breakfast, that way the blood stays in there stretching helping to maintain size. Don't forget to remove the ring after 10 or so minutes, no longer than 20.

Lots of guys have some shrinkage after an RP. Did they warn you? (They should, but many don't). They should have also helped you with sexual rehabilitation possibilities for after the surgery. You say "soft" so I presume you can get hard (many men can't after an RP), which is to the good. It may not be too late to get some medical/sexual help. Your doc's clinic should have someone on staff or to recommend.

Hi R, this is a common problem which men face after surgery. It's important to restore strength to this area to improve blood flow and enable strong, hard erections. I have an exercise on my website which is the best exercise to improve sexual function. This exercise strengthens the muscles which support a strong erection and will also improve prostate health.

If weak erections are concerning you or your sexual partner, you need to balance your sexual focus during foreplay, penetration and intercourse so you don't end up catapulting from one end of the arousal scale to the other and causing yourself to ejaculate early.

Not what you're looking for?
