Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

Could you recommend some safe products for a discharge problem and a small penis size? I have seen some online options, but I am hesitant to trust them and I am not sure of their effectiveness. Additionally, I am concerned about potential side effects. Can you provide any guidance?

Thank you.

Answered by Dr. Raveendran S R

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

The average length of a penis varies from 2.5 to 4 inches in the flaccid state (when the penis is at rest) and 4.5 to 6.5 inches in the erect state with a diameter of 1 inch. Studies suggest that treatment should be considered for flaccid penis lengths less than 1.6 inches or erect penis lengths less than 3 inches. Longer penis size may cause discomfort rather than making females happy. Just as the glans penis is sensitive for males, the female sensation will be in the outer 2-inch part of the penis. A bigger or smaller penis has no effect on making females happy, as male erotic sensation occurs in the glans penis, and other parts of the penis, such as the shaft, do not receive erotic stimulus.The best methods for increasing size are -

  1. Surgical method (liposuction around their pubic bone, skin graft).
  2. Injecting fat into the penis.
  3. Injection of HA (hyaluronic acid) into the penis.
  4. Inflatable penile prosthetics are helpful if the size is less than 3 inch.

Other methods to increase size (but very less chance of improvement) include-

  1. Jelqing exercises - Jelqing involve a hand-over-hand rolling motion to move blood to the head of the penis and stretch it like milking, making it a natural way to increase penis size. However, if done too aggressively or too often, it can cause pain, irritation, or scar tissue formation.
  2. Stretching method - It involves attaching a stretcher or extender device to the penis traction device to exert gentle tension.
  3. The penis enlargement pump can be used once in the morning after or before a bath. Vacuum pumps draw blood into the penis, making it temporarily appear larger, and are used to treat erectile dysfunction. However, using a vacuum pump too often or for too long can damage the elastic tissue in the penis, leading to fewer firm erections.
  4. 69 massage oil can be applied once a day by massage, excluding the glans penis, before a bath for three months.

I hope that you got your answer. Please let me know if you want some help.

Thank you.
