* My link below (the place I suggest to buy it from) is the original North American retailer. They aren’t necessarily the ONLY legit place to get it. I, however, recommend getting it from them simply because it will DEFINITELY be real. Truth is, I don’t know ‘who’s real, who’s fake’, I don’t and can’t comment on specifics website, since I don’t know. If you ordered it from somewhere else and your Bathmate broke in two weeks- I’d venture to say it probably wasn’t legit. Again, other sites sell legit Bathmate pumps, but I don’t know which ones.
q: I see a bunch of Bathmate Hydropumps for sale on eBay and some other rand0m websites, I want to save money and they are slightly less expensive. Should I buy one of those?
a: Maybe. Maybe not. There’s a lot of fake Bathmate pumps floating around the Internet, this includes major sites like ebay and Amazon.com. A lot of guys have asked me which is real, which is fake, if their pump is real or if it’s fake. I honestly don’t know. What I can tell you, however, is that if you order from the ORIGINAL NORTH AMERICAN RETAILER, you WILL receive a real pump. Period. When you purchase it from the original Bathmate retailer you are guaranteed a legitimate product that comes with a 4-week no-hassle return policy and a 12-month warranty in case it breaks. I’ve had mine for well over 2 years and it still in really good shape.
The original retailer ships from Toronto but also has shipping centers in Michigan and Oregon.
Don’t worry you will be getting REAL Bathmate if you order from the original retailer.
But I wanted to let you know that- if you are in the United States your Bathmate might be shipping from the mentioned states.
q: Should I get the Bathmate Hercules or the Bathmate Goliath?
a: 90% of guys will do just fine with the Bathmate Hercules that supports up to 9″ of length and over 6.5″ of girth.
The Goliath model supports upward of 13″ and even more thickness.
q: I’m lazy, or I’m too busy, or I’m scared someone will know I’m doing exercises for a big dick, or I don’t like jelqing/stretching, or [insert reason here]- Can I just use the Bathmate and gain size or do I need to do the manual PE exercises?
a: Good question. You can just use the Bathmate as a standalone and you WILL gain size.
q: You say that Bathmate is especially good for immediate and permanent girth gains, can I gain length from using the Bathmate?
a: Yes, you definitely can. I have and I’ve also used it to maintain my length gains when I didn’t do much PE for about 16-18months. Just using the Bathmate normally and consistently will yield length gains. There also a specific way to use the Bathmate hydropump that specifically encourages length gains called “Bathmate Stretches for Length Gains”.
q: I heard that you said to enter the Bathmate with an erection or at least a partial erection, but the instructions say to use it in a flaccid state, what should I do?
a: If you are just starting, use the Bathmate in a flaccid state for the first few sessions. Then ask your doctor, and upon his approval, use the Bathmate with a 70-80% erection. When I started, I used it for a few months starting in a flaccid state. Not Bad. Once I read that having a FULL erection was much better for gains I tried that. It was WAY more intense and I could only go about 6 minutes. My cock looked absolutely huge. Eventually my penis got bigger and really strong and I could take 20+ minutes in the Bathmate. I suggest you ask your doctor and work yourself up to that. You’ll see that it’s MUCH more intense with a hard-on.
q: When will I see the huge, long-lasting pump where my dick hangs proudly below my balls for most of the day?
a: This is one of the best things about the Bathmate. Once you start putting on the Bathmate with a FULL erection, you’ll find that it’s also more intense. The pump is A LOT bigger and lasts longer. I don’t suggest using a full boner until you’ve used the Bathmate for at least a month. If you have prior male enhancement experience, you might be able to use a full erection sooner. With a semi-erection or no erection, the pump is less and doesn’t last as long.
You can also use your insanely pumped dick on girl’s pussies and it will be the most girth they have ever had. Maybe sure to lube them up. With a big dick comes responsibility, you can’t just “jam it in” anymore. 
q: If I’m uncircumcised can I still use the Bathmate with success?
a: I had to do research on this one because I am circumcised. The answer is- yes, absolutely. In fact, it is particularly good if you have tight foreskin. According to multiple Bathmate reviews from users, the foreskin becomes stretched and way more flexible with consistent use. This allows for significantly better blood flow and firmer, harder erections. The general thought is that it helps with foreskin health issues. Again, I’m not familiar with these issues since I am circumcised, but I trust the multiple reports and feedback that I’ve read.
This is an example of such a report (unedited)-
“Bathmate really works!!! and is great for foreskin stretching. I am a noob to all this. I purchased the Bathmate when I saw it on Tosh because I felt I needed something of quality to help my uncircumcised penis’ health. I did not buy the Bathmate for size extending purposes (though I would not mind) and was skeptical about growth claims via suction devices, etc.
I wanted something that would help me exercise the penis so I can get better blood flow and harder erections and that was pretty much all I was going for. My penis size is average both erect and flaccid.
I always had a problem with a tight foreskin and being uncircumcised probably made the erections a little more problematic than they should be. I found that using the Bathmate with the foreskin rolled back exposing the head really stretched the foreskin out. The suction expands the girth and stretches the rolled up foreskin as a bonus. That was a result I saw right off and was very pleased by it. For the foreskin stretching alone the Bathmate was worth the price and it was something that I discovered by accident.
I don’t hear much about the Bathmate in relation to foreskin health on here so I wanted to add that in and hope it helps those with foreskin issues.
I have been using the Bathmate for about a month now (shower before bed) and today I was wearing jeans and noticed they did not fit as before in the crotch. In a flaccid state my penis is longer and a little thicker. I am kind of a little taken aback by that development – I could actually feel the penis longer/bigger in my jeans – which are not that tight.
My penis looks normal and not temporarily swollen by the Bathmate suction from last night so I don’t think this is a result of swelling.”
q: Should I do stretching, jelqing or buy a Bathmate?
a: This is an interesting question. Ideally you will do moderate amounts of all 3. While similar, they all work in slightly different ways. Stretching, largely, is for length. Jelqing and Bathmate are for growth. Of the three, using the hands-free Bathmate is by far the easiest and most efficient. To really make gains, upwards of 1.5″, you’ll have to devote AT LEAST 30mins- everyday or every other day to penis enhancement.
If you can spend no more than 90 minutes in an entire week on getting a bigger dick, I suggest the following-
30 Minutes stretching (divided into 2-3 sessions)
30 Minutes jelqing (divided into 2-3 sessions)
30 Minutes in the Bathmate (divided into 3 sessions)
* I think you’ll actually find yourself doing (or wanting to do more than just 3 sessions or 90minutes). This stuff is SO EFFECTIVE, especially for newbies.
q: Do I have to shave or trim all my pubic hair for the Bathmate to have and maintain good suction?
a: You don’t HAVE to, it is definitely recommended that you shave or at least down your pubic hair.
q: Should I buy the whole set (cleaning kit, shower strap, etc.) or can I just buy the Bathmate Hydropump?
a: I just have the pump. When I bought mine, there wasn’t a cleaning kit or shower strap to purchase. I can’t imagine that they aren’t good quality. But you don’t ‘need’ them, the Bathmate is 100% hands-free once you put it on. I just wash mine in soap and water every so often. Works good.
q: How do I use the Bathmate?
a: Go to this page- Bathmate (Original Retailer, Authentic) and go to ‘instructions’ which is listed at the footer of the page.
This page has the official instructions, in detail and some pictures/videos.
q: I want to do manual stretches and jelqing to maximize gains- should I do these before or after using the Bathmate?
a: I use the Bathmate AFTER doing any manual PE work, I suggest you do that too. The Bathmate expands the tissue in your penis and you don’t want to injure it by jelqing. I have never used the Bathmate before any PE exercises, so I don’t know how it would work. My penis is literally too thick to effective stretch or jelq following a Bathmate session.
q: Can I have sex or jerk off after using the Bathmate?
Bathmate FAQ: Can I Use the Bathmate Hydropump Prior to Having Sex? from Good Looking Loser on Vimeo.
a: If you are using condoms you’ll eventually get so thick that not even Magnum XL’s will fit you for several hours after using the Bathmate. I use to fit into large condom after using the Bathmate, but now I have to wait 8+ hours if I use the thing for 10 minutes. After using the Bathmate, you’ll notice that you penis is less sensitive. In about an hour the full sensitivity returns. If you are planning to have sex and just used the Bathmate, massage your dick and balls and flop your dick around. Admire it and this will get you hard and ready for sex. Works good.
You can jerk off after using the Bathmate, but I wouldn’t necessarily recommend it since it always good to have good blood flow to your dick post-Bathmate or post-Jelqing. So don’t jerk off unless you can’t help yourself.
q: What underwear should I wear (if any) after using the using the Bathmate?
a: I actually suggest NONE. Again, this is a blood flow thing. Don’t let your penis get scrunched up, let the blood bring DHT, nutrients and other hormones into your spongy tissue and chambers to make you grow. If you have to go out and you want to wear underwear, position your hanging penis on the inside of your leg- let it hang down and embrace the pleasant warm feeling of a hung dick on the side of your leg. Just don’t let it scrunch up or retreat into your body. This is good in general for penis health, avoid the ‘turtle penis’ syndrome. LET IT HANG, that’s what you are looking for anyway. 
People have asked me- I wear Under Armour for support. Everyday. Look into Under Amour or some sort of compression short. These shorts are great because they hold your package tight, but don’t really limit the hang. It’s ideal for bloodflow. If you are into significantly showing off your penis (I sometimes am) on the side of your leg in tight jeans, you might have to go without underwear or just develop a really thick penis.
q: What are these ‘red dots’ that I sometimes get after using the Bathmate?
a: This is especially (if not entirely) common to the new guys using the Bathmate. Even I get them sometimes however. I asked the manufacturer about this and read several reports on the Internet.
First off, it’s not dangerous at all (so long as your penis wasn’t deeply HURTING). They are harmless and they will go away in a few days if you don’t use the Bathmate.
For the new guys, it’s just a sign that you should take a day or two off (and maybe shorten your sessions). The dots will go away during the off-period. Resume as normal or go slightly less long.
These ‘red dots’ are also common to newbie who begin jelqing and stretching (without using the Bathmate). Just take it easy/easier and gradually build your penis up.
If you seem to be getting the ‘red dots’ and you have been using the Bathmate for several months or more- CLEAN your Bathmate with some anti-bacterial soap and water. If you leave it in your shower, like I do, it can get some germs on it. I suggest soap and water, but you could put it in your dishwasher or washing machine. If you put it in the dish washer, don’t put it on ‘heated dry’. That probably won’t ruin the plastic but it might mess up the Bathmate gauge (you know, the numbers/ruler on it). If you put it in your washing machine, don’t let it go to a spin cycle- you don’t want the Bathmate smashing up against the sides up your washer. And Obviously, don’t put it in your clothes dryer.
So long as these dots are the size of a “pin” or very small, they are NO PROBLEM.
If they are huge dots (NEVER SEEN THAT ON ME or ANYONE ELSE) you should get it checked out.
q: I didn’t buy the cleaning kit, how do I clean this thing?
a: This is what the Bathmate UltraMax “Instructions For Use” book says-
Please note that Bathmate should be cleaned regularly to prolong its life and to prevent malfunctions.
“Remove excess water from the device and put in a sink of hot water (40c max) pre filled with a cleaning solution (like liquid soap, preferably anti-bacterial).
While submerged, depress the pressure valve several times to allow the cleaning solution to the internet parts. Cover the end of the pump sealing ring (while submerged) and compress to force cleaning water through the chamber and valve (repeat several times).
*Apply the Bathmate cleaning sponge brush to the inner chamber to remove any contamination and discoloration inside. Move the sponge up and down in the chamber whilst rotating.
*Remove the Bathmate sponge brush and rinse in the Bathmate solution. Re-apply the sponge to the lower inner pump area, rotating as the sponge is applied.
Fully rinse the Bathmate in clean, cold water. Remove excess water and dry with a clean towel, also allow to air dry.”
*optional steps
I don’t clean my Bathmate too often, I guess I should. Maybe once a month with anti-bacterial soap. I’ve never had any issues with rashes or any sort of hygiene problems. When I say I have never gotten ANY side effects from Bathmate, I mean just that.
q: What if my question wasn’t covered here?
a: I recently did a post “what to expect from the Bathmate,” it covers several issues and questions (including shipping, packaging, gains, etc.) Check that out.
{ 174 comments… read them below or add one }
Hey, great article and i am definitely interested in purchasing the bathmate. I’m just getting confused with the “can i have sex or jerk off after the bathmate” section. Let’s say you go out to party at like 10pm and you pick up a girl at night and want to her to experience your new and improved penis, when do you recommend using the bathmate?
Good question- it depends on how big your penis is [for the condom]… when I started out (with the bathmate) I was 6.3 x 5.7 ish… I could use the bathmate and become 6.4 x 6.0″.. so I could still fit in a condom. Today I’m 7.1+ x 6.2-6.4″ after using the Bathmate.. the girth is way too big, so I gotta wait 5-6 hours at least [after a 10 min session].
So the answer is.. it’s depends. You’ll understand the timing if you grab the Bathmate.
if you aren’t using a condom, you can have sex whenever you like though
Ohh, that explains alot. Thanks for the help and can’t wait to get to purchase one..
no problemo.. lemme know if you have more questions
hey dude your websight is fucking awesome and ur dick is fucking huge lol no homo i was wondering at what age you should start using this like would it be ok for a 17 year old to use this plz get back to me thanks
Thanks haha I appreciate it. I should write up my history for you guys.. I did PE thorough out my 20s.. But I was HARDLY committed, so I barely got any good gains. In fact, in the past 2 months, I’ve gained more than I did in 2 years. But I’m hitting it hard these days.Yeah I don’t see a reason why you can’t start at 17… but do the basic routine. Basically when you end puberty, your dick is the size its gonna be. That’s the way it was for me, during my early 20s I took HGH (Rx from a legit doctor) for sports, bodybuilding, etc and my dick got a little bigger and I got a little taller. So unless you’ve just began puberty somehow.. I say go for it (ask your doctor before you start.. I have to ‘say’ that to you) but you should be completely fine
Hey, great site man. I ordered the BM because of how informative you are with the details and I referred you as well. Hopefully it works for me as it has for you. Thanks again!
thanks man! lemme know if you have any questions
Hey man, I just got the BM I ordered. When I use it, should I let it hang on its own or hold on to it the whole time?
cool… for the first 2 weeks.. enter it in a soft/low erection state.. fill it with warm/hot water.. pump it till its really tight and you don’t have to hold it… it should be completely hands-free… every few minutes pump it a few times to keep it tight to keep the pressure up. you should never have to hold it.. if you gotta hold it.. its not tight enough
youll get the hang of it
thx for the question Dave
IT WORKS. I feel like it’s going to pop haha.
Hey here’s another question what could i expect to gain if I only use the bath mate without any other stretching or jelqing???
a decent amount, especially if you never done PE before.
say .5-1.5″ in length, 1-2″ in girth over a period of 12(?) months
instant temporary gains too obviously… which are awesome
Bro…this is probably one of the most informative sites I have ever been to. You can tell you are psych’d, motivated, and are confident in your beliefs. I am in my mid 40s, and starting to have difficulties with ED. So based solely on your recommendations…I am going to give BM a try. Not really because I am not uncomfortable with my current size…but to try and overcome age. Also taking vitamins and testosterone enhancing supplements. Thanks for the info.
hey thanks for the compliments man! people either love or hate this place, that’s what I’m going for
Bathmate helps give stronger erecting in my experience.. it adds up over time, after a bathmate session, your dick with be temporarily less sensitive, then it will be more sensitive than usual a few hours later.. you’ll see what I mean.
not a doctor, but you can look into cialis… great stuff I’m going to put up a link for legit cheap viagra/cialis shortly
hey mate im thinking about getting bathmate but i was wanting to know if the one in the uk is fake or not…………… btw im from the uk
thanks john
hey John, I honestly have no idea… I can only vouch 100% for the original manufacturer that I link to, they are the guys that invented the pump
Hi,
I want to ask a question.
So I will use my Bathmate for the first time today…
1. I dont want to do any sort of manual streching exercise as I dont have time.
2. I just want to use Bathmate, for all the benefits i can get, girth, hard erections, strong sex and length.
So can you pls tell me is the following routine correct for me:
1. Use warm water to warm up my dick and then put my flaccid dick in the BM with warm water and leave it on for 8-10 mins (only 1 set no more then that as I am very new) >> will I get results on my above routine.
One more thing, as you have mentioned above that dont Jerk Off after Bathmate, how about can I jerk off after 1 hr or 2 hrs as I want to feel my hard erection.
Pls kindly advice,
Thx a lot
Hi,
Congratulations for your website, it’s awesome. I’m a self-improvement fanatic, when it comes to my body. Strenght, speed, muscles, PC muscles, everything. However my dick is so valuable to me (and I guess for every man in the world lol) that I have approached dick increase not so agressively, because I fear causing permanent damage for the most important part of my body.
I saw in Bathmate and Jelqs an opportunity to do it safely, but as a gym practioner I can’t stop thinking about the balance of exercise x resting. I’ve been doing bathmate and jelqs (the two of them in the same session) only 3 or 4 days a week (because I take 1 day off for every exercising day, just like I take one day off for every muscle that I’ve worked out in the gym). I have read in your website that Bathmate can be used EVERY DAY. Would I have better results if I done it everyday? What about the resting? Or is the penis different from the muscles in terms of rest? Anyway I’ve read that Jelq requires resting days… Should I do Bathmate everyday and Jelqing in alternate days? Or both of them can be performed daily only with a couple of resting days in the week? Please help me find the right amount of exercise x resting so I can become the best results without damaging my dick.
Thank You Very Much for the help Bro,
Tom
yo man, welcome. I appreciate your feedback very very much, seriously- it means a lot. Guys like yourself are the ones I want on here.
check out the beginner, starting routines. those will work great. if you haven’t done PE before, you’ll get .5-.75″ in ~3-4month just from the starting routine… if you do it.
the beginner routine is one day on, one day off. recovery time is important, but it’s not like if you didn’t 20sets of squats.
the one thing I tell people to keep in my mind is- if you can’t get a FULL boner the following day, take that day (and the next off). You’ll be back to normal after that. Rest, as you know, is important because that’s when you grow. Just like resistance training.
check out the routine

Hey GLL,
Thanks for all the good info.
I’ve read before that removing tr bathmate after 10 minutes to jelq then re-enter for another 10 minutes will help reduce fluid buildup and enhance results.
Would you reccomend doing this or will this effect how the pump works?
Any advice would be great.
Thanks!
hey what up Alberto– I’ve heard that too recently, but I haven’t tried it- so i cant comment based on experience unfortunately. I’ve always just used the Bathmate after jelqing (or late at night before sleep, since i wear the sizegenetic extender most of the day). But I def think it’s worth a try if you have the time. Please let us know how it goes if you try it out!
Hey GLL,
Thanks again for the answers.
One more question. The bathmate instructions say use for up to 20 minutes. I see in your workout guide that after 5 weeks to use for 10 minutes with other exercises.
Do you reccomend using this for only 10 minutes with exercies or 20 minutes without any exercises?
Thanks again for all the work and help to all of us!
Yeah, you can use it for 20minutes after ~1month of use.. I recommend 2 – 10minute sessions though, instead of a full 20. The suction is A LOT stronger with 2- 10minutes (consecutive) sessions. you won’t get the turkey neck or water retention. if you do the exercises, do them before using the Bathmate.
I wore it (everyday, everyotherday) for 14months and did no exercises.. gained nearly an inch in girth and that was with prior PE experience.. key, like i say, is consistency
I think I have been using to much pressure or my sessions are to long, because now I have, I think, a turkey neck or water retention just below the head on the right side. I didn’t use the bathmate now for 3 days in the hope it would go away, it is a little less but it is still there!
It really worries me, will it go away? how long will it take? could it be a damaged something like an artery? it feels kind of to hard to be water retention.
Hey Rebis-
Is it like a hard looking vein? And also if it is going down I would just take some aspirin to let the swelling go down a bit more. I would lay off of the bathmate for at least a week. And then you should be fine.
-Phil
Thnx Pil,
not sure if it is a vein, it is hard but it is not blue and if i have to guess I would say it is water/ fluid. but when you freak out you fear the worst.
You think it will go away?
I will follow your advice, also I will be less agressive after this is gone. to bad was making great gains in just 3 weeks.
Greeting from europe!
GLL – Great site and thanks for the info. I have a question on ‘permanent gains’. Please don’t take this the wrong way. I think you are legit and have provided honest answers and proof. But in your photos you have one in April that says ‘before BM session’ and then one after that saying ‘after BM session.’ If gains are permanent, and you have been doing this and other PE for years, why is there a before and after session photo. I would think its like a before photo 2 years ago and then an after one in April. Do you see my question? Does your dick sort of return to 5.5 normally in a few days, but you have to do a BM session to get it back out? I hope I am being clear. Thanks…
Hey Tom– thanks for the compliment!
Both is true, you’ll get permanent gains… and you’ll always give some temporary gains (pump)
the pictures don’t actually reflect the INSANE temporary pump that well actually.. my dick feels like its 5lbs (same is true for everyone)
so I got Bathmate I was 6.7″ x 5.4″ (about)
in the pictures you speak of-
I’m 7.0 x 5.75″ (before)
and 7.2 x over 6″ (after)
unfortunately I don’t have photos of my dick from years ago, I only have these ‘before and after’ session photos
but– even if I did have photos from years ago, I couldn’t attribute JUST the Bathmate for the gains since I’ve done a lot of PE.
in the period that I used the Bathmate for 14month and NOTHING else
I went from 6.7″ x 5.4″ to 6.9″ x 5.75-6″ (which is actually good progress considering I had prior PE experience and only used the Bathmate)
if I don’t use the Bathmate for a week.. my flaccid size will become smaller… but the erection is just as long (slightly less thick)
I’ve never taken anymore than about a week break however.
Thanks dude. Much appreciated. Last one, I promise…. No problems, right? Nothing said from a urologist about damage?
never visited one… used this for 2+ years aggressively and its only made stuff better and stronger
be honest can it damage your dick
if you use it recklessly – yes.
if you use it responsibly – no.
its just like anything else- alcohol, lifting weights, energy drinks, etc.
if you abuse it, it can cause damage
if you don’t, it won’t
if it did, you’d probably see 1000s of reports/lawsuits from depressed guys that injured their penises and will never have sex again
i haven’t seen one
my 2 cents
Hey I know you mentioned gains last anywhere from 8 hours for you post bath- mate, but if I was to use it before I went out at night, would the gains last 4-6 hours or more like 1-3 hours. I usually bring a girl back within 3 or 4 hours so it’d be awesome to know how long my “Swole” will last. Thanks!
Hey man- this varies a lot. When you first get the Bathmate (and follow the starters’s routine; enter it soft for 6-8minutes), the pump will only last 1-3hrs. once you enter it with an erection after 4weeks, for a longer period of time, the pump last longer. after you’ve used it for 4-6months, using a full erection each time.. the pump lasts much much longer
it’s kinda something that you have to judge when you use it
its easy to figure out, but it depends on the factors I mentioned
hope this makes sense
Hey man, i just purchased the bathmate, love it by the way. I havent seen the question asked though, I already have an extender, do you extend before or after you use your bathmate? I’ve been trying to figure out how to use them both to maximize both length and girth.
Hey bro- glad you like it.
I suggest using the extender for the majority of the day, and using the bathmate afterward. There’s no reason for this however, after a while your dick will literally be too thick to fit in the extender after using the Bathmate… so you have no choice but to use the Bathmate last. If you run into this, you could use the Bathmate first, jerk off, and immediately put on the extender for the remainder of the day (or a while)
I just wanted you to send me a reply, asap, just to check that this is in fact legit, and that I’m not gonna regret purchasing this lol.
So if you would be so kind to reply, I’d be most obliged!
it’s legit man. it will prove me right
go slow with it.. every one is tempted to enter it with a boner in their first week and use it for 15 mins.. to experience the ridiculous temporary gains, but.. umm.. go slow haha
I’ll be receiving my bathmate shortly, I think, but I was wondering (since I didn’t manage to get it from your site (paypal trouble or something): How will I be able to see that I’m holding the real deal, and not some knock-off?
I payed quite an amount on it, so I was kinda hoping that was reassuring enough, but now I’m not too sure. I hope I bought the real deal though, and thanks again for replying so very fast!
Hey there man- unfortunately I won’t be able to tell you for sure if you didn’t get in from my link. It’s hard to eyeball a fake bathmate. It’s (to my understanding) a weight issue. The fake ones weight less since the plastic, rubber, pump, etc. is much cheaper than shitty. Now, if you haven’t held/seen a real one its hard to tell. Unfortunately x2, most guys find out when they can’t get good suction or the thing just fucking shatters on them..
what was the payment issue about? do you know?
you tried to pay via paypal? I think most guys just use their CC/debit card and have no problem
if you’d like me to take a look at the bathmate once you get it, lemme know.. wish i had better news for you, but I dont know all the distributors, some are certainly fine… but I only know ours is good to go.
Hey bro, can you like weigh yours, and I’ll compare it to mine?
The brand that made it says : UM Products ltd, this site is theirs : http://www.umproducts.com/
What d’you reckon? I think I might not use it before you answer me, on the liability of this site and/or on the weight of your product.
Sorry I’m such a pain in the ass, but thanks a lot for replying!
I have no idea on the site.. mine would weigh about 1-2lbs.. its not thin plastic (i think that would be the best indicator). I really can’t tell you either way.. unless its super light, its hard to tell on the weight
Hey man,
so started using the device, still hoping it’s the real deal, as I have no idea how to figure this out but…
Is it okay if the suction seriously kills you the first few minutes? Or should I avoid any pain whatsoever when using this?
Thanks a lot, great help each time
Hey man,
Great site, love the straightforward, no bs, approach. Half Greek here too btw. Ola kala megale?
I’m ready to purchase the bathmate through your link, but I’m just concerned about the discoloration. Is it due to the bathmate? Can it be prevented?
Thx in advance,
George
What up man! Nah (in my case) this discoloration was from jelqing many many years ago. I really didn’t make any effort to prevent, fix, do anything about it… I really don’t know if the Bathmate will discolor your dick or not, I know that a ton of people use the Bathmate have no issues with discoloration (from the simple fact that it isn’t mentioned with Bathmate use, and its mentioned a lot with daily jelqing). The main things (that I know) you can do are warm up your dick (warm wash cloth, or just let warm shower water run on it), use cocoa butter after (this is supposed to prevent it, im told), and use a warm washcloth afterward too.. but again, I don’t take steps to prevent the discoloration.. so I can’t say if that will 100% work. I do know, though, that discoloration isn’t really mention too much with Bathmate… its mainly with jelqing and thats where I got it from
Thanks for the quick response bud! Purchased it. I’ll keep you posted on the progress.
Cheers,
Troy
I used the bathmate last night and when I woke up this morning one side of my dick looked a little funny. It doesnt hurt and it only looks that way when its flaccid. Heres a pic for you and pardon my early morning small state, it was cold in my place. What is that swollenish area by my tip? Is it fluid? Or just extra foreskin now that its been stretched out by the bathmate and its just bunching up on the flaccid state. Thanks for the help, site is great!
http://tinypic.com/r/k2frc/6
nah Jake- you’re good, is it back to normal now? if possible try to prevent that retracted ‘turtle dick’ state as much as possible… your dick will get heavy from consistent bathmate use and just hang down.. extenders are good too, keeps you out of the ‘turtle’ state all day.. But with bathmate alone I made HUGE improvements in my flaccid state. I have to literally freeze myself for my dick to retract..
It seems to be back to normal in the flaccid state now. Must have just turtled a bit overnight after a bathmate session. I’m thinking about investing in the sizegenetics soon but I’m waiting to get a few more paychecks. Thanks again!
Bath mate was awesome, im just used it one weel already. The problem is the sponge under the base rubber was not stick anymore. So i cant get pressure.. How to stick it back? Should i use double site tape or others? Tq
Hey Aidil – Try to send it back and get a new one ASAP… I don’t recommend gluing it or anything, it will eventually fall apart. This is the first I’ve heard of this happening…. How did this happen to you?
Hey GLL. I have a quick question. I’ve been using the bathmate for about 2-3 weeks now. It worked AMAZING the first couple weeks but I noticed the past few sessions that I’ve been getting some brushing on my dick and also I’m not getting ANY instant gains now. Any advice?
Hey Ryan-
Are you using a full boner? That’s when you get a long lasting pump.
But def. wait until that bruising clears up before you use it again. Remember- growth takes place on your rest periods.
Yeah, full boner and then nothing when my session was over. HOWEVER, I did a bathmate session yesterday with 3 sets of 10min and 5min rest between. Went in with a full boner all three times and man, was my dick ever PUMPED! It was awesome! And best of all, no bruising. Full pump from the start. Thanks GLL for the advice and rapid response. Fucking awesome site!
What age can you start the bathmate? I want to make sure im not starting this to early. Should i wait till early to mid 20′s?
Hey there Andrew-
There’s guys that are 17 using it, but I can’t suggest one way or another if you are a minor im not a Doctor
… If I was your age and I wasn’t growing taller, I would use it… that’s just me though.. you know what I’m saying 
I had it on for a full 20 min and was at full suction at about 10mins into it and was doing some BM Stretches as well. Hopefully you can bring me some peace of mind, not really finding any answers anywhere on google.
hey John I sent ya an email
Hey mate i am on second month now
on the first month i asked u what to do then u told me to go from 6/8 minutes a day to get along with bathmate..
so the first month gone.
i am now on second month , and i use it for 15 minutes also i do some scretchin + holdin down left up right for 30 seconds
i also move bathmate around for 25 reps after a full pump, ahh i 4got to add , i dont take breakes betwen this 15 minutes, i just keep my bathmate there for full 15 minutes where i do this routine, like 3 times so 3 sets for each one..
is this correct ? i mean i need some advice because i am so confused with thread on forum there lots of words but no videos or images whatsoever to tell u how to doit properly.
Anyway now i started to do jelqing to but i dont know how to do them , i mean there are like 4 5 diffrent routines on jelqin but i know only one of them .
So me question is , do i have to do jelqing before i use bathmate or after ?.
and when the second month is over do i have to increase minutes of training ?
i was reading some guys on forum, and what they do is , 5 min pumping and 5 min jelqing 3 times a day .
i am ready for this routine ? . also i got some red dots on my penis but they go on next day so i am not worry aboutit lol
Regards
Hey Toni-
Yeah what you are doing is just fine, stay consistent with it.
I suggest jelqing before using the bathmate… that’s what I do.
Basically now that the first month is over, you can train aggressively. But take a 2 day break if you can’t get a solid boner one day.
oh I heard about that routine, I think you could do it. again, just take a break if you can’t get a boner.
thx mate u the best .
thx for your advice
Hello
Hey Bizzy
Hello mate did u get my last mesage it says still awaiting for moderation
regards
Hey Toni-
I’ll get back to you today (Friday)… got a lot of work going here, stay tuned
How long does it take to get a tracking number? I still don’t have one since wed.
Hey Bizzy- it varies. In the past 2 months, most guys have been receiving their bathmate before their tracking ###. Especially in the USA. I wish it wasn’t that way at the moment, but the good news is that most guys are seeing their pumps within 2weeks (Domestic and International).
2 things to check-
1) make sure your card was charged and you didn’t accidently select ‘offline order’
2) spam box, unfortunately gmail, yahoo, hotmail, etc. tend to send all ‘male enhancement’ emails to the spam box
Thanks gll I didn’t get the tracking# but I got my bathmate. I tried it for the first time just to see how it worked..question shouldn’t it stick to your body with no hands or do you have to hold it the whole time and how do know if u pumped it.enough.or.if u need another pump?
GLL – Thanks for providing us with this type of information. Personally speaking I’m a little under average which has plagued me for many years – women haven’t said that it was too small, but you just know they would rather be with a guy that was hung.
You’be inspired me to invest and I’m going to keep a before and after log right from the get go. Thanks again brother!
You got it Ryan, thank you very much. I appreciate it a lot!
GLL – This is a follow up from my Sept. 1 post. Received the BM in the mail and I’ve used it 3 times. First two times it was a little thicker but was lost within an hour it two, however last night (the third time) I went in hard and pumped by 20 minutes. When it came out I was BLOWN away. The girth and length! I sat on my couch like a kid with a new toy at Walmart.. Just playing with it. Now that I’m convinced that this thing works I want to buy the extender that you use..
Do you recommend using the extender during the day or can I wear it at night when I’m sleeping?
I’m going to post a before and after photo of my dick if that’s cool..
Yo Ryan that’s awesome man. It’s good stuff.
Check these out- http://www.goodlookingloser.com/2012/06/08/sizegenetics-extender-videos/
I use mine during the day mostly. According to SizeGenetics, you can wear it at night, just use less tension than you would normally use… to be safe
Does the water mate work for uncircumcised people….?
Hey Aaron, yup the Bathmate works if you are uncircumcised.
Check this out-
http://www.goodlookingloser.com/2012/04/17/bathmate-guide-faq/
What about the long term effects of limp dick? I hear every where that its way harder to get hard after you stop using. I know penis enlargers do that? Anyone else ever had this problem. This is what’s keeping me from ordering.
Hey Joey– after you stop using Bathmate? I’ve found just the opposite… erections are harder, stronger, faster… The most I’ve stopped using Bathmate has only been about 14 days though. So long as you keep your PC Muscle (kegels) up to par, I believe you’ll be fine. My experience anyway.
Thanks for the reply gll!
What’s up man I just got the bathmate yesterday use it in the shower and I don’t feel a good suction. As I thought I would so am I doing something. Wrong or should I use it in the bath
What up Rodney, try this if you haven’t already-
1) Shave/trim pubic hairs down as much as possible
2) Fill the bathmate with water to the top, put it on ASAP
3) use a semi-erection*
*eventually you’ll be using a full erection and that’s when the suctions gets MAD tight and your best results. I suggest holding off on the full hard on for at least 30days, but you might want to try with a semi for a little while 6-10minutes.
if it hurts- take it off.
the 1st month is mainly about prepping your dick for full hard on use.
these should solve the issue
Ive been using the bathmate for about a week now. For some reason today i showerd then i filled the bathmate with water i pumped and it wont stick i tried like ten times ? if the rubber at the end of the bathmate gets to wet will that stop it from it suction?
this happens once in a while (rarely however)
(assuming you have trimed/shaved pubic hair)–
if you get some sort of slippery soap/shampoo/conditioner/oil on it… it has trouble gaining suction
wash the base of it (black part) with soap and water… make sure you get ALL the soap off.. use a towel or paper towel to dry it. make sure all the soap is off. then wash it again with water and no soap…
try again.. should be good
okay i will thank you
Hello GLL,
The site says bathmate helps with premature ejaculation. Do you find this to be true in most cases? If you have increased blood flow, increasing sensitivity wouldn’t this make PE worse?
Thank you in advance,
Hey Jeremy-
Yeah it says that, I never had a problem with premature ejaculation, so I can’t say for sure. But PE in general will definitely help… So I will assume that Bathmate will too. After you use it, for 1-3hours your sensitivity will be down slightly.. so in that window it should definitely help (plus your cock will be huge).
Chris
yo dude…i use bathmate only a week…though…i did a penis extend surgery….but i gain only girth…so is it ok if i use…bathmate ….i did the surgery…a year ago…thnx in advance…
Hey Mario-
Unfortunately I can’t give you medical advice on this topic (I have no idea actually). You should contact your doctor that performed the surgery.
Sorry about that
Hi, I have been using the batemate for a few months, although I enjoy the immediate benifit, i am not convinced of a long term SIZE benefit. I actually took part in a nude 5km race last w/e and finished up with a huge foreskin build up, which as most of male participants were circumcised was pretty embaressing. and the swollen foreskin issue is a problem,, as I think most of us are using the device for visual flaccid and erect results. the foreskin build up is a problem.n Any feedback?
Hey Alan– I can only reassure you that gains will be permanent, it takes several months though. I encourage you to stick with it, several guys on the forum are a couple of months in… you might want to have a look at their logs.
Hey
I am considering about buying bathmate. I am still skeptical about this sort of stuff. Do you still see the gains in your erection 8-10 hrs after you use bathmate? and How do you prevent fluid build up?
Hey Trev– after you use the Bathmate for several months, with a full boner while pumping.. you’ll get pumped erections for 12+ hours. At first, however, this pump only stays around for a few hours. I don’t seem to get fluid build up, but I prefer shorter sessions (2-10min sessions) rather than long 20 min ones
First thing I wanna say is that the bathmate is fuckin amazing, first time I took off my bathmate and looked at my cock I was shocked at the difference I felt like a porn star lol but anyway what I wanted to ask is is there anything you would recommend me adding to my diet for better results? I’m very big into fitness and health so me going into the gnc store or supplement shopping isn’t anything new to me.
By the way I’m forever thankful I came across this site.
hahah good to hear brotha– i appreciate the nice words as well
I’m not big on the supplements/over-the-counter pills
http://www.goodlookingloser.com/2012/09/14/legit-penis-pills/
you probably aren’t overweight, but if so.. lose weight… for every 1″ I lose on my waist, it seems to be about a .1″ gains on my dick
if you’d like to experiment (talk to you doctor first obviously) … IGF-1 can induce on-site hyperplasia (new cell growth) and hgh as similar systematic effect
Thanks for the advice. I do have another question. What Jelqing technique do you use? I seen several way. Do you jelq in every direction or just straight out?
hey check this out
http://www.goodlookingloser.com/exercises-to-increase-penis/jelqing/
Great site brother. I want to get a bathmate but not sure which one to get. I already have good girth of 6.25″. I’m afraid that since the Hercules will fit max girth of 6.5 that I wont be able to max out girth gains. As for lenth i’m just over 7″ so I know the Hercules will accommodate that no problem. Whats your thoughts? Hercules or Goliath. Thanks man
Hey Jim, you will actually definitely want the Hercules model. Big dick, makes it huge!!!
I read that tobacco constricts blood vessels. Does tobacco use slow down gains from PE/bathmate?
possibly, but not significantly… weight gain is definitely worse as far as dick size is concerned
How do u you extacly use the pump ?? Is it like ur jerking off lolhh
Hey Chris,
I love your site! I really appreciate how honest you are about all the diff products youve tried, and how candid you are about your personal life. Based on your recommendations, I’ve ended up purchasing pretty much everything since I stumbled on your site 6 weeks ago: bathmate, fleshlight, cialis, and size genetics. I’m new to PE and hope to make some huge gains! I’m having a hard time with the size genetics though. It seems like I’m cutting off the circulation to my dick head when I strap it in. But if I try to strap it in looser, it slips out. Any advice? How do you wear it? And do you actually try and measure it to stretch it out 1cm longer than your flaccid length? Thanks.
Don’t worry about answering my above questions. After further experimentation and reading, I think I’m getting the hang of the size genetics.
Hey Jason- I just made a video for it
http://www.goodlookingloser.com/2012/10/20/how-to-put-on-the-sizegenetics/
see if that helps
Hey Jason.. wait I think you told me to skip over this question?
lemme know if you need help
thanks for your compliments!!! more to come
Hey,
Does the bathmate help you last longer in bed?
My bad if its already been asked.
Hey Eric-
I say yes. But for a different reason that Bathmate may suggest. After you use it, for a few hours, it lowers your sensitivity since your dick is so pumped. Thus, you are fuck longer (with a huge cock)
how can i track my device when i order it?
Hey Julian.. sorry for the late response, its been an insane week with the blog crashing 3 times.. I appreciate your patience very much
you should have a tracking number in your email, check the spam box if it isn’t there.
most guys, however, get their pump before their tracking number because the USPS needs to report them to Canada.. takes a few days unfortunately.
you’ll probably see your bathmate this week, if you haven’t gotten it yet
I just watched your video how to put on the size genetics…. Very good one!… Looking the video more carefully i saw that you have also discoloration on your penis. Its exactly like mine…. There is a part of the penis that is darker than the rest of it. Is it movable? As far as i know this dark colour comes from the blood that remains in this area… But i would like to get rid of it, can u help?
Hey man.. sorry for the late response, its been an insane week with the blog crashing 3 times.. I appreciate your patience very much
Hey there Alex- thank you very much. Yeah I have that discoloration ring… I had it from when I did jelqing hardcore a long long time ago, I don’t mind it whatsoever and kinda like it. I don’t know how to get rid of it because I’ve never tried, a lot of guys find success with massage it after jelqing with WARM cocoa butter. I don’t know if it works, but just grab a bottle of Palmer’s Cocoa Butter for $4 is try it out. I’m going to try and find an answer to your question and let you know
hey guys.. the discoloration ring is comparable to bags under your eyes. Its blood cells that have leaked out of the capillaries in your dick and are trapped there. In order to move those blood cells you need to apply warm compresses for about 15 mins while massaging from the discoloration down to the base. Basically you are trying to move those dead blood cells to where there is a greater circulation. it worked for me.
Hey bud,
So my bathmats came in yesterday and I was extremely pumped to use it- especially because I had my size genetics extender on for about 4 hours at that point. I just had a couple of questions
-I know the first time you use any of these products is like a trial and error thing. I’m pretty lean cut guy and I think i worked against me when using the bathmate. I followed your advice and went in flaccid for the first time but I was having trouble creating a air tight pocket seal. eventually I got it, but i had to stay sitting down in the tub- is this normal?
Im sure if I crank up the pressure like crazy it might stay, I’m just not sure if it’ll stay that way while im standing. Any tips?
Also I’m not how much pressure i should be using?
Also i’m not sure if mine came defective, but is the back part of the black sucking part supposed to be cute in an angle? just wondering because from all the pictures it just looked like a perfect circle so i didnt know if maybe that was having an effect on the seal.
Like I’ve said before- I dont know you, but I love ya man. You’re the shit haha
I also meant to ask you that if you think i would benefit from using a morning session and a night session (shorter ones)?
Hey I order my my BM from the bathmatedirect.com store I tried to order it from the place you recommended but it wouldn’t take my card, anyway have any other guys you’ve talked to ordered theirs from there and did they get them?
Hey James-
That’s odd, what card were you trying to use? It should take all major CC’s.
Hey chris! After using the bathmate in the shower wat should i do keep the temporary gains longer? Or should leave my dick alone after using the bathmate cuz the bathmate is the only thing i am using
Hey man- just keep using it, they’ll begin to stay around more and more as you use a full boner and as your dick gets bigger. The best thing otherwise is consider getting an extender, the combination of the two is really the best thing in the world for overall growth.
http://www.goodlookingloser.com/exercises-to-increase-penis/sizegenetics-review/
hey chris,
i just bought the new bathmate hercules x30 and im having a few problems. I cant get any good suction for some reason, should i take off the removable comfort pad?
Im black so idk about the dots thing I have slight pain when i use it for the full 20 min but I can take it should i just go like 2 days on and off or what
Hey Aaron- Yeah take a few days off. Shouldn’t have any ‘pain’ just minor discomfort at most.
I’m worried about not being able to achieve a full erection years down the line because of using the bathmate. Is there any horror stories that this actually became a point where they had to use the bathmate to achieve an erection or is that just something that was made up?
Bathmate is pretty safe, I’ve used it for 3+ years now and I have harder erections than ever. So long as you keep your PC muscle up to par with your size gains, you’ll be TOTALLY fine, in my experience. It should improve things rather than mess anything up
How old do you have to be to purchase the bathmate!?
Hey Christian I think it’s 18 years old.
I’m using the hydroxmax x30 and having suction problems and not even seeing temp gains, how many times should I pump and should the valve be unlocked or locked when pumping?
Hey Mike- take the comfort ring off. Guys are finding this is WAY better to get suction. The valve should be unlocked with the pump pointed upward slightly
Hey Chris. Love the reviews dude and hope you had array Christmas. Ok unjust bought the newest bathmate, is there an instructional video that can show me exactly how to use it? I want the best fastest gains possible. Thank you
Thanks Trey, I’m actually going to put up a Bathmate video soon (due to popular demand, hah)… But it’s pretty self explanatory overall. If you’ve never done pumping basically nothing will stop you from getting gains for the first 6 months. Just go at it slowly. Check back soon..
Thanks Chris your a beast!
Hello,
First of all I must say you did/do a really good job by helping men; destroying miths and enlightening truths about penis enhancement. Congratulations, reallly.
Second, I read that Bathmate is to be used with warm water. The question is, my shower doesn’t provide me with warm water, what should I do? Warm-up my penis with hot water and a wet towel before using? Or should I warm water using a stove or microwave and putting inside Bathmate? Maybe using Bathmate with ambient temperature water will give the same results?
Thanks in advance!
Hey Theugino-
If your shower can’t provide you with warm/hot water I guess you can always warm some water up and use it in the bathmate. Cause the hotter the water is the better expansion you will achieve while using the bathmate. But make sure that the water is not to hot don’t want to melt your dick off
.
-Phil
hey chris-
just ordered a bathmate through your site! question is how exactly do you use it. do you just put it on with an erection and pump the excess water and just let it hang for 20 mins? or do you keep pumping for 20 mins consistently?
Thanks again bro!
Hey Chris,
still loving the site! Ive had my bathmate for probably 6 months now but wasn’t very disciplined in using it. I’ve now been using it 2 days on and 1 day off while also wearing sizegenetics 2 days on 1 day off consistantly for the past month. I’m thinking about going 3 on 1 off cause my dick doesn’t seem too fatigued by my current workout. But heres my question:
How long did you use the bathmate before your dick started to hang more? I remember you mentioning it will start to get heavier the more girth it has and will hang, when was that for you? And also, how long does your pump last? I use my bathmate before bed but the pump doesn’t seem to last too long. I’m doing 15 minute sessions fully erect
Thanks for everything
hi Good Looking Loser
(
how are you hope you doing well , iam reading the Guide & FAQ that u put from more than 8 month now i have the bathmate from 1 year now i use it for 8 month i do what you did but really nothing change at all still the same only the good thing that i found from bathmate that after useing it will become more thick only for 20 min max and he will return back like before really i dont know what can i do before the bathmate i use the andropenis for 1 year and i still have it me and 2 of my friends and all of us nothing change at all also we try the jelqing for 4 month nothing also also they told me about the andro penis tablet it good i try 3 month when i was useing the bathmate and jelqing in the same time me and my friend but now we stop every thing coz really we give up so what do you think what we have to do my cock size is 13.00 cm x 11.05 cm and he still the same after we use all this kind of things
your site is great and im really likin the info! i just got my hydromax x30 today and used it for the first time. It took me a while to figure out how to use the damn thing but i got it eventually. As far as pressure goes, how do I know how many pumps I should go with? I certainly dont want to overpump. As for the measurement sticker on the bathmate, wht is that?
Hey Tommy– I say– full pressure ALWAYS.. but just limit the time/erection you have.. you kinda HAVE to use full pressure, otherwise it gets too loose. but yeah- in the first month, be easy and dont over do it!
I just ordered the bathmate x-30 and wanted to know if I can use it everyday and start with full erection since I have been jelking for over a year . Or do I start with flaccid state and use it every other day. Do I start out 8-10 min or can I go to 15 min. Thx Joe
Yup, if you have previous PE experience – you could probably start with a full boner. if it begins to hurt though– take it off
hey i have a question regarding fluid retention?. ive jus brought my bath mate ive had one session an i have to say i was so excited and imoressed with the results an possibilities for the futur, i know pretty much ever one gets FR but what i was wondering is i have encounted FR before and i found putting ice in a tea towl or something similar and resting it on there for a gd half hour gets rid of it pretty well but i want to know wheather treating it when using the bathmate is good or bad?. would treating it mean i could be able to do sessions more requently insted of waitin for it to go down or does the FR help stretch the skin or something assisting in the enlargment process ? so basicly should i leave it if it does help or should i treat it an hopefully get better gains because im able to use it more often ?
Hey Josh- I wouldn’t really worry to much about the fluid retention. It is perfectly normal for that to happen.
-Phil
Hey, GLL
Awesome site! I see the Hercules and the X30 as options to buy (any more?) I was wondering if it’s worth the money to go for the latter and what the advantages are of each. Also, is it ok to jack off after, or will that diminish gains or have some other consequence? How long after using the Bathmate can I jack off?
Hey Cody- I gotta go into the specifics.. but in terms of pressure- they are just the same in my experience. The x30 has some features that make it a little easier to use (latch prevents water loss)… but honestly they are about the same.. both are awesome and I think you’ll really like either one.
Hi,
Great site! As you’ve used BM for a while, does it affect erections after you stop using it for extended amounts of time? I read the longest you’ve not used it was 14 days or something? Did this affect erections in a negative way and also did your flaccid state get smaller when you stopped?
Thanks!
Hey Kay-
I was using mu bathmate regularly for a few months and then took almost an entire month off from it and didn’t notice a difference in my erection quality. I did lose a little of the gains I had made. But within a few weeks of using the bathmate again I was right back to where I was at.
-Phil
How big does your penis have to be to use the bathmate ?
Hey Danny-
Doesn’t really matter your size as long as your not like 9 inches long and have 6.5 or more inches of girth already. If you are under that you can use the regular bathmate Hercules or x30. if you are close to that big then the Goliath or Penomet is your better bet for a pump.
-Phil
Ok no i was wondering on the small side if your to small will it not fit ?
AAAhhhh, do i need to see a Doc?? Dude bought the bathmate after reading your site, 2 days in and well wow it really is bigger after using, day 3 head of penis a little sore, day 4 took off and the tip of my penis has a large blood spot like a black mans pinch now. Scared shit less I started with 10 mins first day then day 2, 3, and 4, for 15 mins and max pressure or until all water was expelled as per bathmate instructions. Have I done damge? will it go? and theres no way im going to the Doctors how the hell do i explain what i was doing. Help needed please
Hey Del-
You way over did it dude! You didn’t do any damage but I would take a week off from pumping at all. Also try doing Chris’s newbie routine you have to condition your dick for the pump. Going crazy right off the bat will lead to injury. But just take a week off and let your dude heal up 100% and then go at it again but not as aggressive at first.
-Phil
Why do you think it is important to do jelquing before you use the bathmate i want to know your opinion because one of the bathmate websites says you should use the bathmate as a warm up and then jelq after.
Hey T-
From what I could tell from personal experience, When I jelq before I use the bathmate I get a lot better expansion in my girth while using the pump and also hit a higher mark in length in the pump as well.

Hey, I just got the bath mate, and when I use it in the shower and it’s pumped, little air bubbles keep seeping in from the very tip (where it should be air tight?). Is this normal, or did I get a defective bathmate?
Hey WSCHN- you may have. The x30′s had have issues. If you’d like me to contact bathmate on your behalf we will get a valve sent to you ASAP and fix this issue. I’m furious that these defective Bathmate were put on the market, as are the distributors- we didn’t have any role in this but we’ll make sure we make it right. If you can forward your receipt to goodlookingloser@yahoo.com I’ll contact them and your new will go out at the beginning of next week.
Again, my apologies for these idiots that put out the defective pumps. We’ll make sure you get what you paid for because the x30′s are actually quite good.

So I plan on buying a bathmate… What is the difference between the hydromaticx30 and the hercules? Which is more newbie friendly?
Hey Shawn – they are about the same. this discusses some of the differences- http://www.goodlookingloser.com/?p=7197
cant go wrong with either… both are fantastic
Hey man, I’ve the Bathmate for a few days now and I’m very certain that I’m using it the right way, especially after reading everything you have to provide on your site but My BM dosen’t seem to be handsfree. After I pump, if I let go, I can actually hear the of air releasing from somewhere and eventually it just falls off…Help?
Hey Christian –
Unfortunately I think you may have received a defective bathmate, do you have an X30? You will need to replace the valve. There should have been another valve included in your package – that should fix it.
Here is a little discussion of the issue-

Here is Bathmate’s official instructions for it-
http://www.goodlookingloser.com/how-to-fix-your-x30
if those don’t work (or there’s not another valve), please let me know. I’ll have you shipped a new valve ASAP.
I’m sorry about this situation and but I promise we’ll make it right, hopefully the instructions above can fix it.
Hey man.. your website rocks
Im 20 and i wanna buy the bathmate! Just two questions.. If i use igf-1.. its have the same effects like hgh but wokrs faster.. it will help me to gain more while using the bathmate? And also how long do i need to use it see some real gains.. I bought sizegenetics and it didnt work really for me for about 4 months of use! Thank you in advance..
Hey HiJack93- yeah IGF is the compound that you want to use. You probably should be jelqing + stretching so you can really make some solid gains too. It will be good with Bathmate. It will even better with bathmate + manual PE.
Thank you man i will definitely try it. Do you you have an email or some other way to contact you personally? I wanna ask a question about this compound.
Hey GLL, this may be a different question but I am just wondering about the discreetness with the bathmate. Does it show up on your bill and what about the packaging?
Also I live in Canada and I’m just wondering how long it will take to receive?
Hey Brad-
Since the distributor Chris recommends is from Canada you should get it rather quick. I know it took 4-5 days to get mine after I ordered it.
-Phil
Hey brad- here exactly what it says-
http://www.goodlookingloser.com/2012/11/09/bathmate-what-to-expect/
in Canada– probably 4-5 days.but it might be a week.
Hey Brad-
It doesn’t show up on your bill at all that it is a penis related item. Also the packaging comes in a straight up white unmarked box. No one will even know what it is.
-Phil
Thanks a lot Phil
The bathmate is really good. I ordered it back in Feb and I’m seeing results, but its starting to leak air from the valve I have to pump it like every 5 secs. I emailed the company but I lost the order number, Is there any they could pull up my record from something else like my name? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Hey man – they should be able to from your Email address. Do you have the x30? all you’ll need to do is replace the valve.. not the whole pump. They’ll send you a new valve.
Chris
hahah you know it!!
Bathmate is the jam
Hey, No… it really shouldn’t be painful. especially if you don’t have a boner (which is suggested you dont in the first couple weeks)
Crap!
Ok, then I need to figure out how to work with it without injuring myself… it’s harder than it looked lol, or maybe I’m just such a newbie at these things (and I am) that I don’t know how to do it easily.
Thanks again for replying, I’m really sorry if I bore you
Hey Rebos-
Keep me updated dude! And yeah I think with rest it will do away. Also gently massage the area as well that can also help.
