 For those who's had PMMA rounds. Does PMMA prevent Flaccid shrinkage due to cold temperature?

Please advice. Thanks.

 PMMA doesn't necessarily prevent the penis's tendency to "shrink", however, it can limit the extent the penis "shrinks," because of the newly formed collagen. Hope that makes sense.

 Thanks for the reply Skpetical, So if let say your warm Flaccid is 5 inches, when its cold it shrinks to 2.5 inches, if you had PMMA done, what would be shrinkage be roughly?

It's hard to say but if I were to take a guess, on the days with the most "Turtling" it may shrink down to about 3" (as opposed to 2.5"). This is a guess and I'm sure it varies penis to penis.

 Even with one round of PMMA (Though with around 27ccs or so), my maximum shrinkage has drastically changed.

The smallest I can retract and shrink is probably about 4.5X5.5, when my Flaccid gets under 5in, the Girth becomes more pronounced and bulbous which is why the Girth is larger there, while in between soft and hard it can get thinner. Before PMMA, I think I could retract considerably when cold, probably to 2.5/3x4in.

 Hi. Would the severe retraction caused by freezing cold water not ruin the PMMA result? Make it all bunched up and uneven?

 @anon1 no it is more sturdy than that. That being said in the first 48 hours you need to be vigilant while the PMMA "sets".

@green when I was preop I used to shrink down to 0". Sometimes my Dick would actually go inside my body. After 2 rounds it never goes less than 3.5 inches. Hope that helps.
