I have a question that I've had for a while. I noticed that if I measure the width of my penis with a ruler, with the condom it is 1/2 mm (0.04 inches) less than without. Before I did the PMMA I never measured it so I don't know if it happens anyway. I think it's normal and that 1/2 mm is simply the superficial skin compressing slightly like in a normal penis (definitely not compressing the PMMA since it's as hard as a corpus cavernosum). Does anyone who hasn't enlarged their penis know it happens to everyone? Or does anyone have a theory. Sorry if this seems like a stupid question but I just want to understand.

To be honest I'm not sure I get the gist of the question - are you asking whether or not the condom adds (marginal) Girth to a PMMA enhanced penis as it would an un-enhanced penis?

The question is why does the condom take away some of the diameter of the penis. Meaning with the condom the diameter is slightly smaller than without and I was wondering why it happens Please [Log in](https://www.j4.phalloboards.info/login.html?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuajQucGhhbGxvYm9hcmRzLmluZm8vZm9ydW0vZ2VuZXJhbC1kaXNjdXNzaW9uLzEwMTU0MjU5LXBlbmlzLXdpZHRoLmh0bWw/bWFya2Rvd249MQ==) or [Create an account](https://www.j4.phalloboards.info/register.html) to join the conversation. ## Re: Penis width 4 years 3 months ago [\#1308707301](#1308707301) - **[PmmaFan](https://www.j4.phalloboards.info/forum/user/6760642-pmmafan.html "View PmmaFan's Profile")** - [![PmmaFan's Avatar](https://www.j4.phalloboards.info/media/kunena/core/svg/person.svg)](https://www.j4.phalloboards.info/forum/user/6760642-pmmafan.html "View PmmaFan's Profile") - [ Offline](https://www.j4.phalloboards.info/forum/user/6760642-pmmafan.html) - Pending Email Verification - ![Pending Email Verification](https://www.j4.phalloboards.info/media/kunena/ranks/rank2.gif) - Posts: 529 - Thanks: 16 - [ ](https://www.j4.phalloboards.info/pms.html?task=new&recip=6760642) What size of condoms do you wear? I have a super thick penis after 3 rounds PMMA. But I use normal size condoms - because of the reason you describe. With the condoms the PMMA skin gets a little bit compressed. And everything feels tighter and even harder. I also think - this is the result of the size-difference you describe !

Can that harm the PMMA? You know - there are substances outthere which can have impact to the PMMA. Like DMSO etc…. I want to clean my private part with something what is acceptable. What desinfection spray uses Ian in the aftercare sessions ???
