Three month progress report for restoring foreskin

by Tally on December 10, 2008 Bookmark and Share

This wraps up my third month of restoring. I am happy to report good progress with my manual tugging routine. I have been retaining all month with either the YourSkin Cone or a baby bottle nipple.  My glans has not yet dekeratinized, but my inner foreskin is getting more sensitive and the texture of the skin has changed.  I don't notice spontaneous rollover anymore because I am always retaining.

When flaccid, my skin either covers half of my glans or it bunches up at my corona. When bunched up, the skin folds naturally at the circ scar and the inner foreskin covers the corona with the fold protruding past the corona and away from the glans. By the way the skin is hanging as it grows, I think I will have more full-time coverage as my inner foreskin grows. Consequently, I started tugging my inner foreskin more to stimulate more growth.

When erect, I can slide my foreskin to just cover my corona. I do this by holding a finger at the proximal end of my shaft to prevent pulling scrotal skin up. I have tried masturbating with my foreskin.  It feels good, but I need a bit more skin.

I measured my inner foreskin growth to be about 1/4 inch (6mm) for the three months.  It's original dorsal length of inner foreskin was 1 inch (25mm).  I am finding it extremely difficult to measure total foreskin length.  The skin is too dang elastic. I estimate my total growth to be at least 1+ inch (25+mm), plus or minus 3/8 inch (9mm).    

My usual routine is the second method of manual tugging. As my skin has grown, I tug two different sections: between my hair line and my circ scar and between my sulcus and medial to the hairless skin. Gripping my inner foreskin at the sulcus with my hand for manual tugging is uncomfortable now that my inner foreskin is getting sensitive. As another way of tugging the skin I have tried squeeze-stretch and method 7, but I think I need more skin to do these methods comfortably. I also use my DTR in manual mode. I added a knob to the shaft of the DTR and I manually push the knob to move the shaft toward my glans to tug. I push the shaft only a few seconds a time and with the same force on the skin as when I use my hands to manually tug. Tugging this way does not irritate my inner foreskin and allows me to apply as much tension as when I tug with my hands.

I tug in the shower and every time I am in the bathroom.  I also tug between 20 minutes and 1 hour every evening when I am reading or watching something.  I tug for about 1 to 10 seconds, relax, tug for 1-10 seconds, relax, and keep repeating.
