Testosterone and Flaccid Length

In my youth I used to do steroids, and recently I have started doing them again. My last cycle was over the summer, and at that time I was just starting to PE. I noticed that my flaccid hang was much longer at the time. My cycle ended, and for the past 3 months I have been steroid-free. Then, about 2 weeks ago I started again, and I’ve noticed in the last few days my flaccid length has increased significantly. I can only attribute this to the steroids, probably the testosterone. My erect length is still right around 7.25, I have been stuck there for a couple of months, but my flaccid length has definitely improved.

To be honest, I don’t really care much about my flaccid length. Sure, it’s nice to look at myself in the mirror, but other than that it doesn’t do me much good. But it seems like the test has changed me from a grower into a shower.

Please future posters lets not discuss the steroid use itself.

I’ve heard things about DHT regulating the ‘size’ of the penis, and DHT is an andro product of testosterone created in erection tissue. DHT is also responsible for hair loss and the growth of the penis during puberty. DHT has been used in numerous studies to increase the penis size of kids with hormonal problems and micro penis. However, I don’t know much about what happens to the T to DHT conversion or whatever after puberty.

Low levels of DHT in older men is thought to cause ‘penis shrinkage’ as they get older, and some users of DHT blocking hair products have reported shrinking size while on the product.

Maybe the steroid use is increasing your flaccid pump.

Some questions: What age are you now and what age were you when you used them in your ‘youth’? Also, What happened to your penis at that time?

I don’t see many bodybuilders with full posing pouches.

I’m 41 now. I used steroids in my 20’s, quit for a while, and started up again last summer. I don’t remember noticing any effect of the test on my penis back then, but there are a lot of things I don’t remember from those years.

What’s the problem with discussing steroid use? I don’t believe it’s against board rules. And the whole media hype about the dangers of steroids is simply a media/lawmaker invention. If you disagree, please watch this video: http://www.dail ymotion.com/rel … kvz7_steroids/1

So, you were on cycle when you recorded the 1.5 inch BPEL gain in two months?

Also, when you lift heavy in the gym, does your dick shrink? And is there a difference in the amount of shrinkage depending on whether you are on or off cycle?

Yes, I was at the end of a cycle when I started PEing. I was taking GH for the first month of my PEing.

In regards to shrinkage, yes, my dick shrinks, especially when I do cardio, but I haven’t paid attention to the on-cycle/off-cycle thing.

Maybe the flaccid just appears larger in comparison to tiny shriveled up testicles!

P.S. There is no rule against discussing steroids, and there are many threads on the topic.

This may be only one data point, but I’ve stuck a lot of needles in my butt over the years, and never experienced any kind of penile changes. Some of them did make me very horny though.

Sounds quite interesting its a pity that even though I am decently versed with medical matters, my understanding of the true profile and working of steroids on various subjects is somewhat lacking to some extent. However Sam you have shared something very interesting and I am definitely going to have a look at that video you shared with us, thank you.

AHA! Good point. However, I have just started using HCG throughout my cycle, and two weeks into my cycle my balls are actually bigger now than they were before. I know you were assuming my balls would be shrunken, but that’s not the case with HCG. In the past, I have used the HCG to jump-start my nuts at the end of a cycle, but I read an interesting story about using HCG throughout the cycle, and I’m trying it for the first time. It apparently works, because I’ve definitely noticed a difference, especially when sitting while wearing jeans.

For those of you who don’t know what we’re talking about, steroids typically cause temporary testicular shrinkage because your nuts realize that there is already too much testosterone in the body, therefore they quit producing more and subsequently shrink. HCG, also known as Pregnyl, is a fertility drug used by women who are trying to get pregnant. In men, however, it causes the balls to think that they aren’t producing enough testosterone, therefore they compensate by producing even more, and the balls grow bigger.

Yes, HCG has done wonders for many , I smile when I reflect on some of that has been shared to me buy some of the gentleman in my gym with regards to their experiences not using HCG or similar substances and it has made a difference for them. I watched the video and I think that its good however I am not here to advocate for steroid use or campaign against it. I do believe that HGH and HRT may be good for men in their 40 or in need of it or some men with unnaturally low levels of testosterone. However the fact remains that for young men it may have some negative effects as stated nad I guess people should be free to choose. However I know from previous experiences in track and field that there were one or two kids who were already messing with testosterone and winstrol when we were as young as 17….it was done under the supervision of the coach and some or other doctor but in my opinion that was wrong besides the fact that competition was then not equally based I do not think that the doctor and the coach concerned made the right decision. Folk that young and still growing should not be involved with steroids. Sam those are some very remarkable gains you have made…holy smokes its taken me near to two yea to make those gains. Well done to you.

I was only trying to downplay the ‘steroid’ discussion because too often topics like that hijack the original point of the thread and you get alot of posts like ‘steroids suck’ etc.

I figured it’d be wise to preemptively strike that out, but oh well. I think too little is known about how Testosterone affects your genitals after puberty and such.
