Penis Extenders

Penis extension devices have some scientific validity to them. In theory, at least, they should cause new tissue growth in the penis.

However, penis extension devices require a high level of commitment to wearing them (3,000 hours or more), and most of them are pretty uncomfortable.

On the upside, unlike the most common form of penis lengthening surgery (ligamentolysis), a penis extender will increase both the flaccid and erect penis length.

While the theory supporting penis extension has some validity, in practice a significant permanent gain in length is almost never achieved. Most users wear the device for a while, maybe a month or two, before concluding that the insignificant gains in length (if any) are not worth the inconvenience.

The key to getting results from a penis extender is finding one that is comfortable enough to allow you to wear it for the maximum time under tension possible.

Where extenders hurt, and the vacuum alternative

Most of the time penis extenders are most irritating at the point where the plastic loop goes around the glans, or head, of the penis. It is here that the pressure from the metal tension bars is exerted in order to stretch the whole shaft.

Phallosan Forte takes a different approach to the irritation and tenderness behind the head: it seals the glans in a vacuum cap, which then transmits tension along the shaft via an elastic belt wrapped around the waist. This attachment method may allow some users to wear the device for longer than they would an extender of the metal-bar-and-loop variety.

Androfill Canada does not sell extenders. The Phallosan Forte link is to the manufacturer; Androfill may receive a referral commission.
