I will be 1 year past surgery next week.

I still cycle once or twice per day for an hour each time. Even after a year at 45 mins, my dick hurts. At an hour, my dick is so sore I can barely touch it to deflate.

Will I still see further gains or am I wasting my time and putting myself through unneeded pain?

Sorry but I think you're wasting your time. Once or twice daily use is probably why you are sore.

I agree with Old Guy, probably a waste of time, especially for an hour. I still cycle and I'm at 17 months out, but I don't do it trying to get added length but just to exercise it. I pump up while in the shower around 10 minutes and I leave it pumped up while I shave, for a total of 20 minutes.

I had the same problem with pain in my glans and shaft for a long time. I was concerned that I would never be able to get over an hour without a lot of pain in the tip of my glans fully inflated. Mine started getting better around the 6 month mark, and now that I'm 17 months out, I can go 1.5 hours with very little discomfort at the end of that time.

Everyone is different and heals different, I talked to guys that had no pain after 4 weeks, 6 weeks, 8 weeks, and some didn't have any pain at all. I just kept trying to get to an hour without much pain and I eventually did, but I didn't do it for an hour each day, maybe twice a week in a hot bath, I would pump it up to 60% and stretch it in all directions for 5 minutes and then pump it up to the max to see how long I could go without excruciating pain. This was on top of my regular daily cycling instructions from my doc for 10 to 20 minutes in the shower fully inflated.

Floridaspeedo, I hope that your pain gets better like mine did, hang in there.

Hi Floridaspeedo, was wondering if you ended up gaining any size after this post? And how much total size did you gain since day 1 post op until now?

I agree with others regarding your cycling. I did one year twice daily for maybe 15-20 minutes each. I'm two years in and have had good growth both length and girth.

Did you have growth only on the first few months or the whole year?

I'm gonna say that around the 6 month mark I noticed that the lower third was thicker. A short time later the lower 2/3rds filled and lo and behold the the entire thing was fuller.

I was about an inch and a quarter short immediate after surgery and gradually gained it all back by around the 10-12 months period. I pumped and did perito twice daily for the first year and then only for sex, masterbation,or just because I wanted to after the one year mark. I did notice a slightly larger girth at the one year mark than any time previous that I can recall. May have even gained a little more girth after the first year. Eid and Perito both say in videos that after the first year that just for sex a couple times a week is adequate to maintain and several have reported a little growth after the one year mark but generally the twice daily stops at the one year. Give it a break for a few days at a time and you might find you don’t get nearly as sore.
