I'm going to be returning my Bathmate X-40. I've been using it for two weeks and the gaitor causes significant pain and discomfort while in use. I've tried using the Bathmate with a sleeve and it still hurts. I've tried pumping at really low pressure and didn't get pain, but then I don't get any expansion either. The problem can't be my girth, because I am only 4.5" girth.
Returning Bathmate, Too Painful

The gaitor pinches the bottom portion of the shaft of my penis, closer to the base. The more pressure I apply, the more it pinches me. I even tried the wine-vac modification so I wouldn't have to compress the gaitor and the gaitor still pinches me. And the pain/discomfort lasts for hours after the session. Like I said, the only way I can avoid the pinching is to use very little pressure, but then I get no expansion. And even with the higher pressure and pinching, the expansion I get isn't that great.
So I'm stuck. Either I pump with little pressure and get no results, or I pump for higher pressure and hurt myself while getting very minimal results.
If someone can help me solve these issues, I would gladly keep the Bathmate. But right now, it seems like I made a bad purchase and should have bought an air pump of some kind.

There are some pads that you could use that can possibly help alleviate some of the pinch. I believe they are the replacement pads that can often come unglued from the bottom (mine has done that - nothing that Gorilla glue can't handle). The extra padding seemed to help those guys with the pinch. Maybe that can help ...

Rub moisturiser on the base of your penis and that stops the gator from pinching as much. Simple!

If the gator is pinching the bottom part of your penis, put the Bathmate further down. If it's pinching the top of your penis, but the Bathmate further up.
Unless you have an 8 inch girth, which you don't, the gator shouldn't pinch if it's on correctly. Bathmate takes a while to get used to. Keep at it.

I always lube the shit out of the rings with plenty of vaseline also on the inside ridges that way when your penis starts expanding inside the cylinder the ridges are lubed so you dont pinch the shaft when they compress.... Being completely honest and forward!!! you have to imagine you are manipulating your body in a gentle place and your gonna have to grin and bare the pain if you expect to get anything in return!!!! it boils down to how bad you trully want it and what your willing to go through in order to get it????
No pain no gain man. Unless you're seriously injuring yourself or the pain is absolutely unbearable, it's a matter of how much you're willing to put up with to get what you want. I'm 5 1/4'' unexpanded and I get marks/rings from the gator after an intense session, but they go away in a reasonable amount of time, and the amount I've been gaining so far with the hardcore stretches is worth it. It a'int gonna be luxurious but you gotta put up with it if you wanna grow.

Sucks to hear that man...try to see if there are any other solutions. It takes time to adjust and get use to some times.

Vaseline ruins the gator indeed if left on long enough. You have to clean it, and when I workout I usually dedicate like an hour and 15 minutes to a Bathmate session. I heavily lube the gator with vaseline, but after I'm done with one set I have a washcloth nearby and clean it up the vaseline that it's on and inside the gator since I don't feel like going back and forth to clean it with soap and water between a set. At the end of the entire workout, I clean it thoroughly with soap and water.

Yes, I am still reading this thread. And I decided to keep the Bathmate and try it with some of the suggestions given above. We'll see how it goes.
I will throw out this word of caution for people who are thinking about buying one. READ THE REFUND TERMS & CONDITIONS. Bathmate Canada will only refund half of the purchase price and they only give you a 7 day window in which to return the Bathmate for the refund. This is one of the reasons I decided to keep mine. It's not worth the hassle to return it for a partial refund, and I am willing to see how it goes with people's suggestions.
And sorry exiled, but Penis Enlargement shouldn't hurt. If you're dumb enough to push through pain, pain which is likely an indication you are causing damage to your dick, then you deserve the ED which will surely be headed your way. There is no way I am going to risk ruining the one dick I have because of some moronic "savage" mindset.

I wasnt trying to sound so much as a mindless savage more so trying 2 instill the warrior spirit in you!!! And im glad to hear your sticking it out and trying to make it work, it will be well worth it if you get through this little bump in the road... And just to be completely honest about it shouldnt hurt I one hundred % agree with you there buddy but sadly it does and we just have to make the pain as virtually painless as possible through trial and error and then its all for the most part smooth sailing... accept for the Bathmate sessions they can be pretty intense at times and definetely at first will lead you to think what the fuck was I thinking in the first place!!!! best wishes to you and just stick with it and sometimes the savage beast mentallity is what will keep the drive in you to do this day after mondain day....
gotta listen to your body, you will know when you have gone to far, but ripping a new dick outta yourself doesn't feel like nothing, its gonna feel strange/weird and at least a little achey if not somewhat painful, pe like weight training is about controlled sustained "injury" through training and giving your body time to heal up, and heal bigger than before.

With time, your penis will adjust and you'll get used to it.
