Retaining the foreskin

Retaining is a term used that just means keeping the skin “retained “over the glans

Retaining also called “Training” is the terms used for keeping the skin over the glans what not restoring.

In hopes that over time the skin will naturally want to stay in this position as long as there is enough skin to do so.

This can be done with anything imaginable including Medical tape, O-rings, a retaining device, or anything that would help keep the skin over the glans when not restoring.

My personal view is that Retaining is as important as restoring. I feel my coverage would not be what it is today had it not been for retaining when I was not restoring.

Within a few months of restoring when I was able to have a little skin to work with. I used a silicone band that I made form a baby bottle nipple.

I then used Orange Silicone O-rings to Retain as I found the material stuck to the skin better then traditional Black O rings. This worked well but there was still room for improvement since they would slip off at times. Washing them frequently makes them work better.

After having many requests for a device just made to retain with so the “Retainer” was born.

This was designed for just retaining. I then added an optional center hole that runs through the center just like the DTR bell so it could be used for some Restoring methods such as, Air, Weight, and Tugging for some men.

The Keeper is another addition to my Retaining ideas. This is made from a modified condom catheter and in my opinion works extremely well as long as you have some skin to work with. I found I could personally use this 24/7 with zero issues.

This option might be used by intact men that do not have flaccid coverage due to a short foreskin.

I have used different ways to retain my skin over the glans when sleeping. I always suggest that anyone doing this should test this during the day. See how long you can use your “Retaining method” without feeling the need to remove it. You should be able to go at least 6 to 8 hours without any discomfort before attempting to sleep with any retaining method. Also try getting an erection with what your “Retaining method” since you will have to deal with nocturnal erections when sleeping. When it comes to retaining and sleeping the more skin you have to work with the better. Do what you feel comfortable doing… Don’t listen to me… I’m crazy.
