penis reduction in chastity

My longest lock up as only been about 3 weeks but from what i've read about chastity & know about anatomy the penis shouldnt actually shrink.

Could be that your penis is "out of practice" all muscles need excercise to keep strong & the ones involved in an erection could get weak during extended chastity.

Also the elasticity of the skin goes down when not stretched regularly which could account for the discomfort.

if you are concerned you could be damaging or permanently shrinking your penis i'd suggest leaving the CB off for a few days & see if things return to normal which they probably will.

 

Fear of the penis shrinking is surprisingly common in some cultures. In parts of Africa, people get killed because they are suspected of using voodoo to "steal" someone's penis. There is no medical reason why prolonged lock-up should effect the size, even long term.

 

My Mistress says that She thinks I actually get bigger. I don't think this was the experience with the CB6000. But when She switched me to the Lori#2, I think because I always keep the ring on even when out of the cage, the ring acts like a cock ring and I get much bigger.

 

I have gotten a little shorter and a little less around. I also picked up a bit of a bend from too tight of a chastity setup early on (I think I have some internal plaque buildup on one side).

hmm weird i think my curve actually stretches mine, without the cage on while im soft it has gotten bigger. although its mainly because the spikes i have stretch the skin at the base of my penis forward

 

pretend experimentation

I could see how the curve might have that effect. ouch, plz dont use the spikes unless they are rly small or worn down some. When I first started I felt like my head wouldn't get to full size, but I couldnt really tell and it didnt look much smaller. So I just assumed that it was just sore from wear. I don't seem to have that problem at all now.

I don't know if long term wear could reduce your size as I havent had the will to stay in it for that long. But I'm sure that you could 'size down' to a smaller tube if you got used to a larger one. I was considering how to help me size down to a 6ks. An idea I came up with would be to place marbles inside the cage before you put it on(I'm sure it could be something else too). Start out with just a few and then try more. Wear it for a short time to determine comfort level. I use the stocking method to get into the device, and you could place it in before the marbles and still pull it through. And cleaning wouldn't be that much of an issue, even though this is just for short term wear. Downside might be added weight, and possibility of rattling sound in your pants if you under-guesstimate the number of marbles.

 

trials

I tried putting a few marbles in my cage like I had mentioned. At first I tried 4 and they formed a pyramid with the spike pointing at me. It was kinda erotic but i started to get afraid that i was going to swallow one. With 3 it still gives some head room and puts the extra space at an odd angle without being too obtrusive. I imagine this is almost what the 6ks would be like, I dont have any room to grow if i get aroused. I still want a 6ks tho, mainly because it is less noticeable.

 

The penis is NOT a muscle, it is a fleshy tube containing spongey matter, which fills and unfills with blood, thus causing an erection.

It does NOT shrink! Although due to temperature, it can look longer and smaller. In the cold, it will look smaller. In hot weather, it will look longer. Despite practicing chastity since January 2006, with my current lock up lasting almost seven months, I can tell for sure that my penis has not shrunk.

Penis shrinkage caused by celibacy and/or enforced chastity is an urban myth.

 

Well I have to say in this house that something definitely happens sizewise when pet is in chastity.

It will feel smaller the first time we have sex after a couple weeks of lock up, but the more we have sex the bigger it becomes!

So although it may not permanently shrink, I think there is some truth to these posts.

 

I was locked for months last year and I would estimate that on average it definately shrinks. I am normally about four inches flacid and was wearing a wand with a fixed ring behind the head which makes getting hard imposible. After a couple of months locked Mistress reduced the ring size by quite a lot (to a size that would have been impossible at the begining) and it did not cause any problems other than me being very horny! At the begining I could not even get the smaller ring on! One of the problems is that willys change size all the time depending on mood, temperature etc but on average I would definately place my vote on it shrinking by more than 10% avaerge. Hope this helps.

 

I think what happens is when you're locked up for a long period of time the tissue doesn't get to expand to it's normal erect size and it does cause you to become smaller when the cb is taken off. If you leave the cb off for a week or so it should return to normal size though.

 

My cb3000 came off today after 12 days, My wife thinks it a bit shorter, but we are working at it, so I'm sure it will get back to its right size soon

I'm not a doctor but I read second hand that a man who admitted he was in Chastity for long periods of time was warned by his Urologist that not being allowed to get regular nocturnal erections (for long periods of time) really will cause penile atrophy and the doctor said would probably result in ED at some point. Since men who have had Prostate Surgery and loose the ability to get natural erections have the same problems (Atrophy) I think this is a reasonable statement.

If male chastity is about male orgasm control I think it doesn't have to mean having their penis locked up and forgotten about. Only "controlled." ie making a less selfish lover or to improve the relationship in some way or to switch the power dynamics and so on. In any event I think health wise its worth serious thought. A lot of people seem to worry about the prostate (As well they should) but I'm not even sure that they have it right with monthly "milkings" to keep them healthy.

I dunno, because I'm kind of on the outside looking in. If the goal IS long term lock up? Penile atrophy or even ED don't matter. If the intention is to create a full time lock up cuckold / servant? Does it matter? I say that because I think some of the relationships really are geared in that direction. And for the men who maybe dealing with GID and are at the core transgendered they may enjoy this concept but perhaps its best to really think that out and instead look seriously into transition and even GRS.

 

12 days = 15% size reduction

I don't think 12 days is gonna cause serious shrinkage. Also there may be some atrophy as mentioned, but as long as the device comes off and you get some 'excersize' then I dont think it will shrink very much at all. It will probably be smaller when you first take it out, or take longer to get all the way to size. The whole point in my view is the build-up to the orgasm, if there is no release and you just keep building up...something bad is likely to happen.

 

an idea?

Also since chastity will keep your member at the smallest size posible, you kinda get used to it like that. If you took some viagra or something similiar it would cause you to fill out completely. This might be a way to regain lost size, almost like physical therapy does for injured and atrophied muscles.

 

Mine Certainly Has Shrunk

Junior,

Like yourself, mine has shrunk. In my humble opinion I think the different responses from the members are due to their varying degrees of lock up. As you describe, you have been in some extended UNinterrupted lock up periods--same as me. If you are let out to get hard and "stretch" once or twice a week, you will likely suffer no further shrinkage. If, however, you stay inside of the tube for months at a time, I feel you can expect even more shrinkage.

For me, I realized this and told my wife/keyholder that I need at least a weekly "stretch" which she indulges by putting on a rubber glove and giving me a handjob but not alllowing me to cum.

I hope this helps.

i think those are ideal circumstances david, i agree and will likely take the same approach thus forward. Seems like sometimes i try so hard to forget about it, that i end up neglecting it a little. Everyone should make sure to get out and excersized regularly at some interval, possibly longer if you arent worried about shrinking. But i think that 2(maybe3) weeks for me would be the longest time even considerably possible without significant deleterious effects. And this also depends on your type of device and how it fits comparitively to the size of your member.

 

Who measures their penis anyway? I have never measured mine!

 

Some devices do allow for an erection, such as the CB-6000. The only difference is it points out horizontally rather than vertically.

The Doctor was just theorising, as there have been no long term studies into enforced male chastity and its long term effects.

 

I'm not sure I would discount this as quickly as you are. Collage and Medical school don't make a doctor God but I think its wise to respect their opinions on medical matters. And in this case if I remember it right it was a Urologist who "ought" to have a clue about this.

I might be biased I have measured mine!

 

i can tell you stories about doctor's lack of knowledge and insight into their professions... i've had to research MANY medical issues prior to taking Mistress to the doctor and let her know what to ask him or her. i've concluded that the majority of doctors are in it for the money. and these doctors prefer most patients not to get better since they make more porfit on repeat customers!

sorry, off-topic i know, but this is a very sore point with me!

 

Don't go to a doctor and expect them to figure it out unless u want to pay alot for every test available. Western medicine is crazy and i hate how they think they have a legal right to force me to accept their 'treatments'. Don't tell me that your way is the only way, it isn't.
