Thinking about a tlc x

[scotsman85]

Hello,

as per the title, what do I need to know? What information (if any) do I need to provide when ordering? Am I best to use device for a short period of time, then retain with tape?

Am currently cross taping and am C2 / C3.

All input welcome!

The tlc website says you need to provide the diameter of your glans flaccid and erect. I found the size they picked for me based on that measurement to be fine, though I would have picked once size up (they don't give you the option to pick your own size). I have used the tlc-x for the past ~6 months and have gone from CI-1 to CI-3.
I personally wore the tlc-x almost every waking hour, only taking breaks to shower and use the bathroom. I now rotate between the tlc-x, the dtr, and the dtr air, though still wear a device every waking hour. I do not retain with tape, o-ring, or the cone that comes with the tlc-x while I sleep. The last two months I have seen stunted growth, so I am doing a trial run of light tension while I sleep. If, in two months my growth is still as slow as it has been the past two, I will really dial back the restoring to see if that makes a difference.

As for how long you should wear your device: that is totally up to you, how your skin reacts. I'm still trying to figure out what works best for me.

If your growth has stalled, take 4 or 5 days in a row off.

Well tlc x give me the convienience of not taping and removing it. I did taping years ago and had skin tears from it and used manual.

Another alternative is consistent manual tugging, its effective provided you have the personal time and privacy.
