Can penis size affect the ability to conceive in a partner?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

Please help me get rid of the following issues. I got married before two months. I have 2.5 inch flaccid penis and when erected it is around 5 inches. Is this normal? Can I make my wife pregnant? While masturbating, I am able to erect up to 5 inches and also produce sperm. But during intercourse, I could not ejaculate. Recently (for past two days), I am a bit worried of these issues. As a result of my worries, my penis is not getting stiffer. Now we are planning for a baby. I am a bit confused because of fear, anxiety and worries. I am not able to have sex even though I feel that I am normal. Please help me get a baby.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com. I have read your problem. Penis size is not an issue. Because of penis size, your wife will not get any problem with pregnancy. So be relaxed. Your problem is delayed ejaculation, probably due to your anxiety. So I am prescribing you some medications for erectile dysfunction, delayed ejaculation and anxiety.

The Probable causes

Anxiety.

Probable diagnosis

Delayed ejaculation.

Treatment plan

Tablet Bupron XL (Bupropion Hydrochloride) 150 mg in the morning for 7 days and then twice a day. Tablet Buspin (Buspirone Hydrochloride) 10 mg twice a day.

Preventive measures

You should do deep breathing exercise such as 15 deep breath 4 times a day. You should start yoga/meditation.

Regarding follow up

Revert back after 15 days to adjust the dose of medication, to a sexologist

Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

Thank you for your treatment. I hope that will do with delayed ejaculation. What should I do to get full erection while planning to do an intercourse?

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

  • Tablet Bupron XL will help you in full erection.
    • If you have an issue with erection even after Bupron XL, then 40 minutes before intercourse you can take a tablet of Tadacip (Tadalafil) 10 mg.
