    I'm 40 days in, and haven't noticed any shrinkage. I know that's not very long though, so you might wanna see what someone who's been at it longer has to say.

    Mine seems to grow since I am more careful with M. I can also sense him more often as a soft presence in my groin area. Very pleasant I must say, just to sense him being there.

    I love your description! =)


    Yeah but anyway, to the OP, I have not seen/felt any difference. But the website itself points out that it is the lack of erections that causes shrinkage. Not quite nofap exactly. I still get loads of morning wood and other spontaneous erections during the day. And in fact, ever since I started nofap, I think I have been getting spontaneous woodies more frequently!

    lol no I don't have ED. I wonder how long my erection lasts during the night? If I'm stiff from the moment I shut my eyes to the moment I wake up then I would be cool. No worries about penile shrinkage then.

    Does anyone know how long morning wood lasts while you sleep? the last 10 minutes, an hour? The whole time sleeping??:confused:

    I feel as if morning wood alone isn't enough to stop penile shrinkage.

    No, NoFap does not cause your penis to shrink. I haven't jerked it in 931 days and my penis is the exact same size....errythang good in my wood

    EDIT: only during the "flatline" phase it might appear to be lifeless, cold, and smaller. But this goes away as your brain gets back in balance. We do not know why this happens yet. We do know that a large percentage of guys experience a flatline and come out of it recovered. So no worries guys! Keep on not gettin your fap on

    I can't remember the avg specific number of minutes, but you don't just get erections with your morning wood, but you get erections throughout the night, during your REM cycle, which you get every 3 hours when you are sleeping well. I'm not sure how long these erections tend to last, but I think they are usually around 20-30 minutes if I remember correctly. Longer than a guy's normal awake ones. Just google erections while sleeping or something similar and I'm sure you'll find the data easily.

    So, if a guy has a normal, healthy penis, with no difficulty in getting normal erections, then there is no reason to think that by not tapping his penis would shrink, ha. Your best friend below your belt is getting plenty of time to "stretch out" while you are asleep, if not also when you wake up and perhaps during the day.
    :cool:

    Pretty silly!
    The article says "If a guy is physically able to get erect, but never has erections during the day -- maybe he finds himself in very un-erotic circumstances for a long time -- he needn't worry. The brain has an automatic penis maintenance function built in."

    I have been waking up with an erection almost every day ...

    I've found the opposite funnily enough. A widening of my penis though not length and bigger balls.

    NoFap in 931 days!! Thats supernatural my friend, supernatural. What were your reason? You must be a monk because the average man would explode after not fapping for 931 days!

    But seriously, how did you do it? south-park-internet-porn.jpg

    "Without regular erections, penile tissue can become less elastic and shrink, making the penis 1-2 centimeters shorter." really? that's not much difference, it's a laughable to be worried about.
    If you are worried then do strectches and hot wraps, that'll keep it regular.

    I've only found that it shrinks to a really tiny bit on the 2nd or 3rd day after a binge of fapping ... by the end of first week it's always back to its normal size.. i've also not had the long streaks like the people around here...

    I think, not to be lewd, it could shrink a bit temporarily simply because you are not stretching it with your hand. This isn't a bad thing though, as it will become normal size during an erection.
