  • STEP 2: Insert the penis into the penis pump’s cylindrical tube. Make sure the entire penis length is inserted and that the penis pump creates a good seal with the base of the penis.

Once the pumping starts, you will feel a pulling action and expansion of the penis. It is due to the blood being drawn by the vacuum it creates.
