Loss of length and girth - any evidence that traction will help

I've lost a lot of length and girth - been like this for about a year now. I've seen some doctors claim that you can get an inch back with traction. There are some testimonials confirming some success individually. Is there any kind of concensus or solid research on what is best for traction to get back some length and girth?
Thanks

Pre peyronies I was approx 7.5 inch length. Went below 7 with disease. With traction I am back to 7.25 and the counter bending is restoring girth for me. I recommend restore x.

Any before and after photos of these results? Would be encouraging to see.

Lol, yeah plenty of "studies" but the conclusion they come to are pretty questionable.

As for regaining an Inch in length, I havnt seen anyone, anywhere on the internet prove they have been able to gain even a single centimetre. So make of that what you will...

I would imagine recovering lost & length girth is different than trying to gain it from scratch. Some claim they recover some lost size with stretching, it would make sense but it seems such a painstaking and longwinded process which requires people to have nothing to do all day!
This is so depressing. I have gone from normal 6 inches to about 4.5 with lost girth. I have looked on these boards for some positives but I don't see any recovery possible.  :(

Hello Fortune,

I suggest you to check out my Restorex logbook here on the forum under the Traction topic: https://www.peyroniesforum.net/index.php/topic,20885.0.html
I posted some pics also. I had a clear length gain from RestoreX use (I don't know exactly but you can judge from the pics), apart from a 34° gain (from 47° to 13°). I think I even can get to 0° back as before. I'm considering doing a 3-4 months session again.
I'm still using VED everyday because of hourglassing.

Best of luck. You can clearly get that disease fixed !! Trust me!

I got peyronies in 2024. my penis became about 2 cm shorter.
I first used PMP for 3-4 months, 8 hours a day. Then I switched to Restorex and have been using it for about 7 months 2-3 times/day.

My penis has become about 1 cm longer. But no improvement yet on the curve

Now 7 months Restorex, penis 1 cm longer,
but no change in curve.

Out of interest, was that 1cm length gain more of an estimate or are you 100% certain? Is it obvious from pictures?

I know it's difficult when assessing, especially with varying erection strengths and measuring methods.

I measured by stretching the penis straight out when it is flaccid, pressing a ruler against the bone, and measuring to the very tip.

It is 1cm longer now.

Since the penis bends when I get an erection, it is difficult to compare before and after during an erection. But yes, I feel that it is longer even when it is hard.

For me, I don't care that much about the length, the most important thing for me is to get the curve back a little

I have been manually stretching flaccid penis 100 quick stretches, 3 times a day. Seems to be helping a little with the curve but not much on the length at all.

tek

still i cannot understand the source of the length gain
Is it gain from streching the plaque so its o gain from the previous damage of Peyronies Disease?
Or it is a gain from streching the hole penis so from other parts that are streched?
Probably its a mix of both?

I regained c. A. 1 cm from manual daily stretching + Cialis. Or it happened naturally over time. No one can tell...

I am also interested in RestoreX to gain maybe 1 more cm as I lost quite a bit, but I am also cautious due to the low anecdotal success stories.

I have seen that there are some new studies running this year that are more neutral. So let's see.

I guess the problem with such small differences in size (e.g. 1cm) it could easily be misjudged based on the strength of the pull (whilst measuring flaccid) and the strength of the erection (whilst measuring erect)...not to mention inconsistent measuring techniques in general.

It's all very frustrating.

What were these other RestoreX studies you refer to? Would be interested to see.
