Encore

SSRI's such as Lexapro are well known offenders. For me, Lisinopril and Metoprolol were killers.

I wonder how you gauge whether it is the Cabergoline that helps, or not?

I've posted my experience in another thread but I'll also respond here. If I try to pump starting at a flaccid state, then my dick will not extend at all. It just engorges (and the head kind of gets sucked sideways into the cylinder wall, looking at me pathetically). Even if I start semi-erect, it w...

I'm new to pumping (I have an Encore scheduled to arrive today). I've read everything here for the last couple of years and checked all the YouTube videos I could find. All to say, I'm not totally ignorant on the subject but I have zero first-hand knowledge. A big challenge for me is sensitivity and...
