Was my masturbating technique wrong?

1. Do u hold the PC muscle, the one u use to stop urine flow and to hold erection/ejaculation? Or do u just hold it when u r about to ejaculate?

2. Are there any bad effects holding it for the whole masturbation session? My penis wont erect as big as it could if i do this, maybe cuz the blood flow is held. And i had been doing this for years (from 14 to 19 y/o) with these only 70% quality erections, would it cause my penis to shrink/stunt penis growth? Do our penises grow during our teen years cuz of the hard 100% erections?

So my fapping technique was:

(1)flaccid
(2)hold PC muscle tightly-stroke with hand
(3)after seconds, release it
(4)then, it goes a little erect
(5)after that, hold the PC muscle again
(6)release the muscle and it goes a little bit more erect
(7)so on..so on..from (2) to (6) until i ejaculate

The thing was, i forced it to ejaculate it in 1 minutes
only everyday without achieving full erections and ive been doing it for 5 years, from 14 to 15 y/o. I dunno, when i did that 'hold and release', i cummed fast.

Recently, i noticed my technique was wrong. So, i start jerking off without holding it and the sensation was great. I also last very longggg. Now, i know why jerking off has been boring these years.

But, did i stunt my penis growth by not achieving full erections all the time?

Also, the penis has shrunk, i measured. It even should have grown these years, rather than shrinking. It is now thinner, not that my palm becomes bigger, really.

sorry this was a late post, but have you ever seen a girl have sex with a guy with a small penis? i watched it (guy had a 4 inch penis) then the same girl had sex with a man with a 9 inch penis and it was a world of difference... sensitive up to only 2 inches? what a load of bull... i'm sorry but you need to ask a girl before you post, because your information is WAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYY off... a girl is sensitive pretty dang far in, considering she had the best time with the guy with the biggest penis, and there were guys there that had penises only an inch shorter... yeah, every inch helps

The length of flaccid penis is not important. It is always taken when penis is erect. Erect penis length above 5 inches is normal. Vagina is sensitive up to 2 inches only. So one with 2 inch can satisfy a woman in intercourse. So do not worry about length.Some variation in length will always be there.
Stopping masturbation is ideal. However if you can't stop do it following the undermentioned tips.
Masturbate with lubricated hand only.
Continue breaching while MB.
Relax your perineum(muscle between anus and base of the scrotum.
Do not over visualize sexual scenario.
Do not masturbate when you are in a hurry. Keep minimum half an hour for MB.
Do not jerk, do thrusting also.
Empty your bladder before you MB.

K thx.. Actually, that wasn't my point. I didnt ask for the right technique.. I asked about the effects of my bad habit..

That was my technique years ago, when I first discovered masturbation at 13, till I was 14.

After that, I've never had the chance to do that high quality masturbation.

I masturbated everyday, in the morning, before I went to school. I did it in 1 minute, without letting it reach full erection. I did it fast cuz I just wanted to get the 'release' sensation, just to wake me up and make me feel fresh, cuz I was sleepy that time, everyday, due to my lack of sleep.

I must woke up at 4 a.m everyday when I was 14, the time I developed this bad habit, cuz my school was far from my new house.

I only slept about 2/3/4/5/6 hours everyday. I knew that lack of sleep could affect testosterone production. Was this also have something to do with my ****? Cuz I noticed, that time every morning when I masturbated, it wasnt as hard and big as before. But, I didnt really care that time, cuz I was sleepy.

I also noticed during this habit, my random boner didnt make my penis glans hard. My **** was also thinner.

Age 13: 4.5 inch (when my puberty started, I never was an early bloomer)
Age 14: 5.5-6 inch
Age 14.5: 4.5-5 inch (started to shrink, was it caused by the combination of my lack of sleep/messed up testosterone+bad quality masturbation?)
Age 15: 4.5-5 inch
Age 15.5: 4-4.5 inch (it shrank again, cuz I developed an eating disorder or sumthing, I often starved myself and was severely underweight, like 100 lbs at 5'7 tall, maybe it had washed up my testosterone)
Age 15-19: 4.5-5 inch
Age 19: 5-5.5 inch (I change my masturbation technique, and exercise a lot)

The girth is still thinner now, I'm sure, cuz I have this 'thing' I always use to compare my penis size, also there's still an extra loose skin around my penis when I erect-it looks like a 50 y/o fat man's **** u see in amateur porn, whereas it used to be tight, muscular, had lots of veins, and THICK.

I should've been having a 6-7 inch right now, like everyone else in my family, ONLY if I always was healthy.

It's not that size matters, it's just something u shouldve been getting, but u couldnt, it feels like an astma.

Could I still reach my penis size potential?

It's really not about anxiety.. It really shrank.. Both flaccid and erect. I've measured before.

I'm curious, if a teen never had a 100% erection everytime he had the chance, will his **** growth be affected?

I've also read about penile atrophy. What's this?

hi,the right method of masturbating is 1.use lubricant or a wet hand bcoz dry hurtz.2.empty your urinary bladder(go and paas urine once) before mastrubation.3.loosely hold your pennis and start pushing it up and down when your pennis is tight.4.do it slowly no fastly.and when cuming to know that it would release then remove your hand from pennis and do again like this for 3 times bcoz this method help in doing sex.4.after doing this 3 times then again up and down and slowly then 100% ejaculation is there.enjoy and it feels good mastrbing.

Having seen some of your other posts, I think a lot of your issues are just anxiety and I think you're just looking into it far too much. My penis isn't "large" when flaccid but when hard I'm 7.5 and quite thick, so definitely don't look too much into the flaccid size. If you believe there is a medical issue then perhaps you should see a doctor and/or urologist. I personally believe it's just anxiety though. Don't worry too much! Just be happy with what you've got. It's how you use it, not the size!

I know there's nothing wrong with the technique, everyone would have their own right technique, as long as it doesn't cause pain.

My point is, I've been jacking off these years without letting my penis to be fully erected. I always forced it to *** before it went 100%. I forced it to *** fastly in 1-2 minutes, only in order to get the 'release' sensation. I always did this everyday in the morning before school to 'wake me up', cuz of my sleepiness due to my lack of sleep.

I've measured when I was 14, before I developed this habit, , it reached 6 inch mark already. It's thicker, stronger, and more muscular. I could compete with adults already.

It should've been hitting the 6.5/7 inch already, like everyone else in my family.

Now, it's just 5 inch. The thickness is also shameful for a 19 y/o. The flaccid is also a child's size.

Would it shrink penis/stunt penis growth during my growing years (14 to 19 y/o)? Or, do I just lack in blood flow? Also do my lack of sleep have something to do with it?

Okay, forget bobdylan for a minute. I can't make any sense of what he's saying and I'm sure that you can't make a word out of it either, so let us just ignore him for a moment.

There is no right or wrong to masturbation. It is simply do what you enjoy (with limitations, of course, don't go off hurting yourself!) With that said, I don't think you have anything to worry about. Also, keep in mind that you can't measure your penis size while flaccid, naturally that number will change completely. Instead, using your newest technique, allow yourself to reach full erection and then measure. Just do what you enjoy!  Best of luck to you.

I masturbated while it was flaccid, I often didn't let it achieved full erection because I held the blood flow, by squeezing the PC muscle.

I'm 19 and I've been doing this since I was 14.

Okay.. I think my masturbation technique had been wrong for these years. Everytime I masturbated, I always didn't achieve full erections cuz I held the PC muscle tightly. This went off from 14 to 19 y/o. Recently I changed the technique.

Would it shrink the penis/stunt penis growth? Cuz I read somewhere, people who r having ED have their penises shrink somewhat due to the lack of usage. And now my penis looks like it's either shrunk/having no growth for years.

PCmuscle exercise is kegel exercise. we seek two things with it. One is flexibility and the other is strength. Flexibility is more important. By squeezing and relaxing faster, we increase flexibility and and by holding it we increase strength. It is important to give equal time for relaxation. then only the exercise is effective.Google kegel exercise to learn more about it.
Male Deer Exercise and Female deer exercise is recommended by Taoist yoga for sexual stamina. It is a Massage of lower abdomen with light testicular indirect massage. You may google the pharase to learn the details of the same.
