All About Penis Pumps



There are lots of myths and fallacies about penis pumps. The purpose of this page is to dispell those myths and provide you with the real facts about penis pumps.

I receive quite a few emails asking about pumps. Basically, I get asked the same 2 questions a lot so I'd like to address those questions right now in order to set the record straight for everyone.



  1. Are penis pumps safe?

  2. Will a penis pump enlarge my penis?

Here's what various sources in the field have to say about pumps:

(The following statements have been reprinted with permission)



1. From the original website of Penis Video:

"No doubt you've seen countless gimmicks, tools, and contraptions that claim to enlarge the penis. We've all seen things like the much touted Vacuum Pump. But do they really work? Let's take a look at how these devices supposedly 'work', and the possible problems you could have if you choose to use them."

"VACUUM PUMP PROBLEMS: Vacuum Pumps have seem to have been around for ages, yet do you know anyone who has received REAL results using them? The main idea behind vacuum pumping is that you try to force blood into your penis and force it to grow. On the surface this seems ok, possibly even in line with some of what we are explaining in Our Unique Program. However, always think twice before using any product such as a vacuum pump, because the side effects and repercussions can be quite severe!"

"The problem with a pump is it uses forced vacuum power, not exercise that stimulates. This can lead to broken blood vessels, which can actually CAUSE various diseases and problems such as Peyronnie's disease. Peyronnie's disease is caused by trauma or a minor accident to the penis, (such as over pumping). The initial accident may be minor, but as the injury heals, scar tissue forms and deformation results. Basically, it makes a once normal healthy penis curved or crooked. This is NOT something we're trying to achieve! Also, other problems you could encounter if you use a pump are:"

  • Much effort, little if any permanent result.
  • Discouraging results (temporary results only). This causes many men to over-pump, thinking that more is better. This is WRONG and leads to injury.
  • Possible risk of blisters.
  • Possible risk of burst capillaries.
  • Possible risk of improper circulation to the testicles and penis.

2. From the old website of InVigorex:

"Vacuum Pumps - Although pumps do work temporarily (usually for about half an hour) this is unsuitable for surprise occasions, also these pumps have been known to leave scars, bruises and in some cases gangrene, causing much pain to the penis. Pumps "supposedly" work by placing a tube over your penis and then pumping the air out of the tube. This temporarily swells the penis, but does not increase the blood capacity in the cells of the penis which is necessary to achieve permanent size gains. Other downsides of vacuum pumps are:

  • risk of temporary impotence
  • risk of painful blisters
  • dislocating and bruising
  • bleeding from burst capillaries
  • too much effort with too little result.
We DO NOT recommend using this method, EVER."

Now granted, these are all competitors of penis pumps (in essence) so perhaps you think that their statements aren't valid.

I had these same concerns too, so I turned to the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) to see what they had to say about penis pumps:


Here's what the FDA (Food and Drug Administration)
has to say about penis pumps:


The following is an excerpt (word for word) from the:


CDRH Interim Regulatory Policy
for External Penile Rigidity Devices

Vacuum pumps refer to devices which consist of a cylinder and a vacuum pump (either hand-operated or motorized). By placing the flaccid penis within the cylinder, this device creates an erection by applying a vacuum. This causes blood to enter the penis producing an erection. Once a satisfactory erection is obtained, the user often places a constriction ring around the base of the erect penis prior to removing the vacuum cylinder.

Information Relevant to Vacuum Pumps:

  1. Consult your physician should any complications present, and discontinue use of the device if such conditions persist.


  2. The user should apply the minimum amount of vacuum pressure necessary to achieve an erection.


  3. The user should stop using the vacuum pump if pain occurs.


  4. Vacuum pumps should not be used under the influence of alcohol or drugs.


  5. Use of a vacuum pump may bruise or rupture the blood vessels either immediately below the surface of the skin or within the deep structures of the penis or scrotum, resulting in hemorrhage and/or the formation of a hematoma.


  6. Misuse of a vacuum pump may aggravate already existing medical conditions such as Peyronie's disease, priapism, and urethral strictures.


  7. Misuse of the vacuum pump could result in swelling of the penis and/or serious permanent injury to the penis.


  8. Do not use an electrically powered vacuum pump in or near water.

So what does this mean?

Well, it confirms exactly what most of the other sites say...

Pumps can be dangerous!

  • Use of a vacuum pump may bruise or rupture the blood vessels either immediately below the surface of the skin or within the deep structures of the penis or scrotum, resulting in hemorrhage and/or the formation of a hematoma.

  • Misuse of a vacuum pump may aggravate already existing medical conditions such as Peyronie's disease, priapism, and urethral strictures.

  • Misuse of the vacuum pump could result in swelling of the penis and/or serious permanent injury to the penis.

Boy, these are some pretty scary warnings!

I don't know about you, but I certainly wouldn't want to take my chances with a penis pump.

If the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) feels this strongly about the possible problems that can occur with a penis pump, then I definitely don't want to risk it.




To sum it up...

  • Pumps WILL NOT enlarge your penis permanently.


  • Pumps are intended to help you get an erection if you can't do it on your own. Don't use a penis pump unless you have an erectile problem.


  • Pumps can be dangerous. They can cause permanent damage to your penis. Especially if you don't know how to use it.


  • If you want to enlarge your penis, then don't buy a penis pump. Instead, invest in a good exercise program, a good penis extender and a good herbal supplement.

It's just that simple.
