I'm a week into traction and I think I'm finally getting the hang of this RestoreX device. But I have a couple questions.

The first is undoubtedly a stupid one, but im mew to this so please go easy on me. :) How do I know if im stretching the actual penis and not just the skin?

2nd — When im using it, like many, it slips out once in a while. Im ok finding good ways to prevent that. But I also noticed that while im stretching, I can hear the springs stretching over time and eventually (maybe 5-10 mins), the white lines appear on the main rods. Simple enough, I release the device, extend another notch or two or three, and then open it up again. Rinse and repeat until the white lines show again. After maybe three cycles of this, I find the rods are at their limit. Should I be using the larger rods the device came with? I measured my penis as per the RestoreX instructions that came with the device, and was within the range for the standard size. But I seem to keep running out of rod length after a few cycles of reaching the white lines, releasing the tension, extending the rods, and then going at it again. But unless I'm doing something wrong in usage, if I'm within the standard rod size limits, ...?

From my understanding the info states that you want to "bury" the white lines. I too have been experimenting with the Restorex. I currently have been using the PMP.  For not stretching your outer penile skin you need to pull the excess skin through the base of the unit.  When you are fully stretched in the device you should be able to feel this outer penile skin a little loose and not taught. You should feel you inner portion of your penis being very stretched and tense though. Increasing the tension after you are accustomed to it is good. You may have to put in the longer rods though. Be careful with not over tightening the screws or stripping them.  Good luck.

In regards to the slipping out, I found that I had to wrap several times around and clamp way harder than I thought was safe. I was worried it would be damaging but its been fine after several weeks.

Good luck

I think you will be fine with the regular extension rods. I've been getting to the point the body of RestoreX starts to clear the extension rods. It does still have a center piece to stabilize it when that happens. I looked at the longer rods- the shortest notch is almost as far as the longest notch on the standard rods, which I have never been able to make it to.
