Today I’m celebrating sixth months of foreskin restoration, if you want to call a passing thought a celebration. But yeah, 6 months into the big stretch and I’m happy to report things are going well.
In a bitter-sweet sort of way, I’ve achieved semi-consistent accumulation of smegma resulting in the head of my penis becoming smoother and having a healthier colour than before.
Sex is more satisfying in ways I didn’t anticipate. As I said before, oral sex, for me, was a ho-hum affair. I appreciated the gesture, but the excitement really came from the act of it all and not so much the actual skin on skin sensations. I had read how much more satisfying things became after shedding some of that calloused skin, which it has, but what really surprised me was what I was feeling further down the shaft past the head.
It was like a whole other world. I felt like my wife was going down on me deeper than ever before, and after looking, I realized she was motoring along at her usual pace. It just felt like she was taking in much more of me. That, in itself has made the last 6 months so much more worth while.
The TLC Tugger has held up exceptionally well. The strap has gotten a little stretched out, but still useable and the silicone part of the device doesn’t show any signs of wear. I’ve also noticed it’s not giving me as much hassle as before. There’s a lot less pinching and it stays on most of the day. I’m guessing this is all due to wearing experience and longer foreskin length to grip to.
I haven’t measured over the last few months for the same reasons I’ve stated before. It’s tough to get an accurate measurement when dealing with millimetres and multiple factors changing the final measurement. I do have some data and pictures from before I started and a few weeks in, so I am able to go back and compare, but I’ll be missing out on the minute changes happening week to week. I can live with that.
While I haven’t officially measured myself yet, I have noticed a definite lengthening during my day-to-day. Especially when, not sure what to call it…milking my dick…?
Other men will understand what I mean. After you’ve peed or came, you pull your foreskin back, then squeeze and slide your hand toward the tip clearing out your urethra and keeping your underwear from getting sticky later on. I think of it as milking anyway.
It almost become muscle memory at this point, but lately I’ve noticed when I pull my foreskin back to the base, I have to go back up a ways and pull again to clear more foreskin out-of-the-way.
Another thing I’ve noticed is sex is different. Before my hard cock would slide in and out, skin-tight. Now I feel my foreskin remains somewhat stationary against her vagina while my dick slides in and out of my foreskin sleeve and her pussy. And having that stationary outer foreskin creates a kind of seal that keeps everything nice and wet. And when I pull out, I can feel my dick come out first and then my foreskin follow a split second after.
And that’s the kind of progress I’m looking for, real world examples.

That’s great how you’re already noticing such a difference. Have there been any changes in the months since you originally wrote this?
Not much really. I basically took the summer off and just started tugging again last week. I’ll write something up proper about what happened to my foreskin after taking so much time off. Thanks for reading along.

For a lot of complex reasons, my own restoration has been more off than on, but stories like this help keep me engaged and committed to finishing eventually.
That’s what’s great about the process, you can go at your own pace on your own time. Best of luck in your restoration.
