There are several methods and options for penis enlargement which
provide various levels of success. Here are brief descriptions of each
method, including the major points concerning the safety and
effectiveness of each one.
1. Penis Pumps
Description
A penis pump is a simple device with a hollow tube where you can put
your penis. It has a handle to pump out the air from the tube, creating
a vacuum around the penis. This causes blood to flow into the penis,
resulting in an erection. The blood then gets caught in the penis by
means of a rubber ring placed around the base. This ring allows your
penis to maintain its erection so you can make love without losing the
erection. By creating a vacuum-type seal around the penis thereby
pulling blood to the surface, it engorges your organ and makes it appear
larger.
Effectiveness of Penis Pumps
The system of penis pumps does nothing by way of permanent penis
enlargement. The enlargement effect is not long lasting and disappears
quickly once pumping ceases or the blood retaining ring is removed from
the base of the penis. Penis pumps do not cause your penis to grow; they
can only help you achieve fuller and harder erections temporarily.
Safety
Using this kind of forced pressure on the penis is inherently dangerous.
Capillaries and blood vessels within the penis can break if there’s too
much vacuum pressure is applied. Typically, bruising occurs on the penis
shaft if capillaries break just beneath the skin. There are frequent
instances of burst blood vessels in the penis, peeling of skin, general
pain and soreness amongst users of penis pumps. They also tend to thin
out the penis, making it very weak and reducing the duration of
erections. There are some cases of penis pumps even deforming the penis.
2. Penis Enlargement Pills
Description
Penis enlargement pills contain various sexual enhancement herbs that
have two major effects. First, they develop circulation and increase
blood flow to the penis and second, they stimulate the body into
producing high levels of sex hormones such as Testosterone.
Effectiveness of Penis Enlargement Pills
Penis enlargement pills are unlikely to permanently enlarge penis size
by themselves. They do make your erections much harder and thicker. The
results are the same as when you have a very powerful erection, and your
penis seems larger than normal.
But they do not increase blood flow to the penis enough to permanently
stretch the erectile tissues.
However, penis pills do have a very positive result if you combine them
with penis enlargement exercises. Because strong blood circulation is
very important for healthy tissue growth, the combination of exercises
and pills becomes even more effective for penis enlargement than
exercises alone. Also, fuller and harder erections obviously make the
erect penis larger than partial erections.
Safety
The common ingredients of penis enlargement pills are completely safe.
However, a lot of pills on the market do contain herb known as Yohimbe.
In certain cases, regular intake of Yohimbe can result in symptoms such
as anxiety, high blood pressure, rapid heart rate and dizziness.
3. Penis Enlargement Surgery
Description
Actually, penis enlargement surgery involves separate procedures for
lengthening and thickening. Lengthening is achieved by cutting the
suspensory ligaments that attach the penis to the pubic bone, and
releasing the part of the penile shaft normally hidden within the body.
Girth enhancement involves either grafting strips of tissue consisting
of skin and the underlying layers of fat, into the penile shaft between
the erectile tissue and skin or injecting fat taken by liposuction from
the abdomen.
Effectiveness of Penis Enlargement Surgery
Cutting the suspensory ligaments usually results in an immediate gain of
around an inch in flaccid length. However, at the time of surgery erect
length boosts very little. The penis must be extended for a minimum of 8
hours a day over the following months, to achieve increase in erect
length.
In a minority of cases, penis enlargement can have the reverse effect
and result in penis shortening, due to the development of scar tissue
that strengthens and reduces during the healing process. Fat injections
can primarily enhance girth by up to 3 inches. However, injected fat is
inclined to re-absorbed back into the body over the following months,
and there is always a partial loss in girth. Re-absorption is also
sometimes rough, and the penis is left looking quite lumpy.
Safety
Any surgical procedure always involves risks. Possible risks include
infections, badly healing wounds and permanent scarring. When done by a
very skilled surgeon, the odds of experiencing a total loss of sexual
function or extreme penile disfigurement are now quite low, because of
the advance in techniques. But the risks and possibility of adverse side
effects still remain.
Penis enlargement surgery is also extremely expensive.
4. Natural Penis Enlargement Exercises
Description
To increase penis size, natural penis enlargement uses only exercise.
The penis consists mostly of erectile tissue, and the main function of
natural penis enlargement is to enlarge and develop this sponge like
tissue through the use of exercises.
As the tissue slowly expands, the overall blood holding capacity of the
penis also develops, and this results in permanent enlargement in both
penis length and thickness. Other exercises focus on increasing the
ligaments within the penis, allowing the erectile tissue to extend
length wise to its maximum.
Effectiveness of Penis Enlargement Exercises
Natural penis enlargement exercises are a very effective way to
permanently enlarge the penis, safely and without the risks of
surgery. Erectile tissue reacts to exercise in a very similar way to
muscle.
You'll find that only after a few weeks of exercises, your penis will
have gained in both length and girth and your erections will become much
harder and fuller than before, because of the much improved blood flow
to the penis. With a good program of exercises, the erectile tissues
will be enlarged to the maximum within 3-5 months.
Safety
This is a totally safe method of penis enlargement. The worst that can
happen is that your penis can feel slightly sore for a day or two,
if you exercise too much in a workout. But this can be prevented easily
by following a program that demonstrates exactly how much you should be
exercising at every stage.
With natural penis enlargement, you have control of the amount of
pressure and force you apply when exercising, and this avoids the type
of injuries related with the use of pumps and weights.
An effective, safe and permanent way to enlarge your penis is a good
program of penis exercises. And, at the same time, such a program will
develop the overall health and fitness of your penis, give you harder
and longer-lasting erections, and provide an overall boost to your sex
life.
Note
The effectiveness and speed of results are greatly enhanced if penis
exercises are combined with erection enhancement pills.

5. Penis Traction
Description
Penis traction is the newest and most effective method developed for
penis enlargement, but it is more expensive than exercises and pills.
Traction is the medical term for carefully calibrated, continuous
pressure applied to body parts, to help with healing after surgery,
injury, trauma or burns. Simply put, it means stressing tissues by
stretching, and then allowing the body to rebuild itself naturally. The
stretching opens up spaces between cells, and triggers a growth or
healing response in the body, in which adjacent cells begin to divide
and fill in the space. With continued use, the growth can number in the
millions of new cells, significantly adding size and tissue to the area.
In the case of penis enlargement, a penis traction device is used. The
device applies traction (stretching pressure) by means of adjustable,
calibrated bars between an anatomically curved base that fits
comfortably at the root of the penis, and a surgical-grade band that
slips over the glans (head). As the organ lengthens, the traction and
distance are adjusted. This device is meant to be discreetly worn under
the clothes and/or during sleep. The carefully controlled stretching
pressure triggers the healing and growth response in the penis. This
growth response adds millions of new cells, thereby significantly
increasing the dimensions of the penis, both in length and girth.
Effectiveness
Penis traction is the most effective penis enlargement
procedure known to medical science. The technique has been the subject
of many medical and research studies. Clinical studies and research
papers at the international level have documented that:
a) Correctly applied stretching increases the length and girth
of the erect penis.
b) The increase in size is directly related to the
duration of usage. The increases are permanent.
c) Increases in length and girth are evident in both the
erect and flaccid states.
d) The increase in dimensions is not affected by the age
of the patient.
e) The increase in size does not depend on the original
size of the patient's organ.
f) The procedure is safe for erectile and orgasmic
functions.
Safety
Penis enlargement by traction is totally safe in all respects,
provided you observe two basic precautions:
1) Buy a quality traction device. Presently, the good devices are
made in Europe, are classified by the European Union Health
Authorities as Medical Device Type1, and carry the European CE
certification. You have to insist on this, even though such devices
are relatively expensive.
2) Strictly follow the instructions in the accompanying User Manual.
