Who knows? Id say you have a 60% chance to gain .5 from one round of 10%.

Depends on your body and quality of product.

You are asking a lot of noobish questions. Try a little research breh.

 I started out larger then most. But i just looked at a pic of my non PMMA penis and was like geeze.... ive had 6.6" Girth for years now, 5.7 looks small to me.

Obviously the term big and small change from each person.

It was worth it

 I agree with buttercups. Keep doing your investigation but there are so many variables that it is hard to predict a precise outcome. When you go to Dr. C. they will ask you your goals (i.e. size or aesthetics). Be clear about your desires and the Dr. will advise percentage and volume. I deferred to his judgement and did exactly as prescribed in after care and have been very happy with my results. I haven't done any stretching but have gained some length from the increased weight of my unit and some fat pad loss. Good luck to you.

 Hi smalljay,

It's great that someone else also understands the risks of PE (which, in my opinion, far exceed the risks of PMMA). I'm sorry about your injury, and it's good to hear you are almost done healing! Best of wishes in that regard.

Also, I myself have lost some length too (due to other reasons- bad EQ, etc.). I remember I used to be about 5.7 inches NBPEL, but now I am 5.5 inches NBPEL. However, that difference isn't much at all, and I am still 'average' even though I lost about 0.2 inches of length. As long as I am of average length I am fine. Plus, women always, ALWAYS talk about how Girth matters much more than length, and for that reason I only care about Girth now. Length-wise I am average (5.5 inches NBPEL), so as long as I remain average I am fine in terms of length. Girth-wise I am a bit below average (4.4 inches), so I want to get that up to average at least. Previously, I wanted 5.5 inches Girth, but now I'm only looking at a max of 5 inches Girth, because my length is also 5.5 inches. If I get 5.5 inches Girth with my 5.5 inches length I will be a 'choad' (penis with same length and Girth). After seeing pictures of that, I find it very unaesthetic and I don't want to sacrifice aesthetics for Girth. Therefore, I'm aiming for 5 inches max Girth now. As long as I get to average Girth, I'll be fine. I just want to be average overall; average in length (which I am), and average in Girth (which I want to be). Lol, I just noticed- my username probably explains that.

Many guys, I realize, don't appreciate being average (not targeting someone, just speaking in general). Men with average penises most likely want to be above average. Men with below average penises most likely want to be only average. Someone like myself who is a bit below average overall (taking into account both length and Girth) really understands the beauty of being average.

 Just to sound like a devils advocate.

I don't think research can affect your outcome. Just aftercare and luck.

And a splash of intelligent planning.

Maybe the research will help with that. But by itself the research is just academic.

 So if my goal is to gain only .5 one round off 10% will provide it? Also the .5 gain is for all the penis shaft i mean from the base until the glans or only for the mid shaft?
