Robbie,
This article...and the man behind it, are part of the reason we have founded the Erectile Dysfunction Foundation. Part of the mission is to act as a watchdog and consumer protection agency. This guy is way off base.
This is exactly where you need to consider the source. Read this article again from a scientific point of view. How does he substantiate his claims? Who is he? What is his authority? What is his motivation?
Let's look at who he is. At the bottom of the article is this:
Gary Toh - About the Author: Gary T is the owner of http://www.AdultPenisGuide.com, a website dedicated to helping men get a massive penis. Get free adult ebooks, articles, reviews and resources plus read this special review of SizeGenetics System, , a top grade penis enlargement device plus exercise systemGary Toh is clearly trying to get men to NOT use a penis pump for penis enlargement. And, for the record, he is absolutely right. It will not lead to permament enlargement. When you stop pumping regularly, over the course of several weeks the penis will return to its previous size. But he wants you to buy his penis enlargement program.
What he says about using a VED for sex is simply overblown and silly. A VED is a very acceptable treatment for ED and it helps millions of couples have a good sex life. It has been used for decades now, and is medically proven to be safe if used properly.
So, ignore this kind of sensationalist posting. He is trying to sell a product/site/program/ etc. Follow the directions on your VED, don't overdo it, listen to your body, and pumping is a GREAT method of penile therapy and sexual aid.
