Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I have a 5.5-inch penis, and I am trying to grow it, but I am stuck on how to make it grow. I have been eating good healthy food, and nothing works. I hate having this inch be too small, and I feel so insecure about my body. Please help.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I thoroughly read your query and understand your concern.

The average length of the penis varies from 2.5 to 4 inches in the flaccid state and 4.5 to 6.5 inches in the erect state with a 1-inch diameter. Studies recommended flaccid penis length of fewer than 1.6 inches or an erect penis of fewer than 3 inches should be considered for treatment. Longer sizes will not make females happy but will cause discomfort. Like the glans penis sensitive for males, the female sensation will be in the outer part 2 inches. A bigger penis or small penis has no effect on making a female happy. A male gets an erotic sensation in the glans penis, and another part (shaft) of the penis will not cause erotic stimulus. The only best method for increasing size is a surgical procedure involving liposuction around the pubic bone, skin graft, injecting fat into the penis, or injection of HA (hyaluronic acid) into the penis, inflatable penile prosthetics are helpful if the size is less than three inches. Other methods to increase size, but very less chance of improvement. I suggest you can only try the following:

  • Jelqing exercises. Jelqing is an exercise method that is a natural way to increase the size of the penis. The method is a hand-over-hand rolling motion to move blood to the head of your penis and stretch it like milking. It is a safe method but can cause pain, irritation, or scar tissue formation if you do it too often or aggressively.
  • Stretching method. it involves attaching a stretcher or extender device to the penis traction device to the penis to exert gentle tension.
  • You can use a penis enlargement pump once a morning after or before a bath. Vacuum pumps draw blood into the penis, making it swell, and they are used for treating erectile dysfunction. The vacuum pump can make a penis look larger temporarily. But using one too often or too long can damage elastic tissue in the penis, leading to fewer firm erections.
  • Aljins 69 massage oil (kalonji oil) once a day by massage (except the glans penis) before bath for three months.

Hope this has answered your query.

Kind regards.
