If one was to stop, will it get smaller

Hey I’ve been at this for a little over a month now. I’m seeing results. I grew almost half an inch within a month and a weeks period. I’m steadily at 6 and a little under 1/2 inches. I started with a little under 6 inches. I’m thank full to all the forums as well as the jelqing tips and instructions on thunders place.

My typical routine:
Warm up 1-2 min
Jelq from flaccid to 80% erect for 10-15 min a session. (Usually 2 sessions a day, 1 at morning, one before bed.)
Start normal with normal jelqing for 7-10 min ( some side to side, but mainly normal and downward motions )
Then finish with overhand 5-8 mins
Then cool down 1-3 mins

It’s worked wondrously. My girlfriend even mentioned that it feels bigger, and looks healthier.

My goal for short term is 7 inches. Girth isn’t a big factor for me, so I don’t measure it. Long term goal is 7 1/2 inches.

My 2 questions r:

Is it reasonably possible to reach & 1/2 inches by the end of the year?

If I was to reach my goal and feel no need to carry on with jelqing, or if I just stopped for a while, will my penis size decrease to a smaller, or original size?

Thanks to anyone that could help me with these questions, and to anyone that can answer them from personal experience

You should continue to do a maintenance program once you reach your goals. Worse case scenario it will return to its original size.

I would like to ask that you check out the Forum Guidelines please. We don’t allow chat speak here as it is an international forum.

I understand The reason for the rules. I tried not to use chat speak. Where do you see it? Anyway sorry if I did.

Would I have to continue doing the maintenance program, for the rest of my life to keep the desired length, or would it be possible to use the maintenance program for a certain period of time, and then quit to some how keep it the same length?

I suspect that SunshineKid was referring to this:

"r" should be "are".

(Optimally, "2" should be "two", but I don’t think that anybody would get down on you for that alone. See Wikipedia: Manual of Style (dates and numbers) )

I take it that "& 1/2 inches" was meant to be "7 1/2 inches"?

Some are able to maintain gains without doing a maintenance program indefinitely. Since individual experience varies, I’d suggest get your gains, and then see how you feel about what level of effort you’re willing to put into keeping those gains. The best case is that the same exercises that you would do to keep your gains are the same exercises you want to continue to do to keep your penis in optimal health. Let me recommend two threads by SparkyX that you might find of interest, if you haven’t seen them mentioned:
Physiologic Indicators (PIs) to help growth!
Warning! If you haven’t gotten improved erections:

Take a look at this to get an idea of how much others have gained over what period of time:

From that, you’ll see that one inch gains are more common than inch and a half gains over the course of a year, but inch and a half gains are not unprecedented.
