Hey everyone. It's been a few months since I posted an update on my retraction, so I thought I'd do one. Shortly after my last update, I found that I should approach my permanent retraction differently. I decided that I should ease into it versus what I was previously doing by just jumping right in without easing into it. I was finding that if I just went for it with out easing in, I'd have to pull forward after a while. So, I started easing into it by pulling back for one day, then taking a brake for the night. Then I went for two days retracted, then I'd take a break. Then 3 and 4 days. Once I reached a week of retraction, I left it there and stopped taking breaks, and that is where it has been ever since, except for the occasional time it rolls forward, which has ever so gradually decreased over time.
For methods, I started out with the reverse coin method. That worked well as it exposed the inner foreskin and it stretched the frenulum. Unfortunately I found that if I wore the coin for too long, the foreskin would start to swell. I figured it was because the edges of the coin were kind of sharp. Then I decided to just pull back with no method, but the problem was that the foreskin was rolling forward too often. That is when I came up with the method I've been using recently. I'm not sure if anyone has used a variation of this method before or posted it on here or not. Here's the method: I first pull back the foreskin all the way, so that the skin gathers at the base of the penis and the inner foreskin is exposed. Next, I take an elastic band (hair tie, rubber band, etc.) and put it over my penis and let it rest just above where the skin is gathered. Then, I pull the band over the scrotum as well, so that there is an anchor holding the foreskin back behind the band.
And that's my update! I will post pictures to demonstrate the method in case I didn't describe it well enough. Please let me know your thoughts and questions :)
yeah I tried coin method too for purpose of drying inner forekin more effectively but it got painful rather quickly.
I would love to see how your thing has become like
Taking similar approach..easing into it
Like to see ghat method, does it pinch at all or get sore.
