Penis Enlargement Pumps
Penis enlargement pumps use basic scientific principles in the way the devices are built. Lengthening and widening is achieved by increasing the volume of blood in the flaccid penis by means of a vacuum action. In this way, an erection is achieved. The organ is placed in a cylinder fitted with an airtight seal at its base, and a vacuum created by drawing out air using a hand or electric pump.
The effect of the vacuum is to subject the male organ to pressure, which causes an increase in the amount of blood within the vessels. Some devices complete the process by providing a constriction ring so that the blood vessels remain closed and the penis remains hard after an erection is obtained.
If you're reading this in search of permanent male enhancement gains, these devices are not the way to go, since there's no evidence to support such gains through the usage of this method. It's important to remember that this treatment was originally developed for use by men with erectile problems rather than those seeking permanent gains in erect state, and that in fact, all FDA (American Food & Drugs Administration) approved pumps are approved only for the purposes of treating erectile dysfunction, not penis enlargement as some companies would have you believe.
Penis Enlargement Pumps Problems:
- Some might find it emotionally difficult or embarrassing to use in order to obtain an erection.
- When abused or misused, minor injuries such as blisters and skin discoloration as well as more severe problems caused by the rupture of larger blood vessels. Trouble is, the potential for misuse is pretty high - there's always the temptation to pump "a bit longer to get a bit harder".
- There is evidence to suggest that regular over-pumping results in fewer erections, which when they do arrive, are softer than normal and difficult to maintain for any length of time.
- The quality of cheaper, novelty pumps is unregulated. Some are unable to maintain their vacuum; others may shatter under the pressure of the vacuum, potentially causing injury.
- Whilst the erection results obtained by use of pumps increase over time, any gains made in penis length and girth are of a temporary nature, disappearing if use of the pump stops.
With the potential for injury being as high as it is with use of these devices, we think it vital that any pump purchased be one that has undergone tests for safety. In the U.S, this will mean that it should be FDA approved; in the EEC countries, it should have received a CE mark. Do not consider purchasing unless you're satisfied that the pump meets one of these standards, or alternatively, those of your own country.
