Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
My penis is not growing, and it is very small. I feel it lacks strength or firmness, possibly due to watching pornography. I am getting married in a few months.
Please suggest a solution.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I understand your concern.
The average length of the penis varies between 2.5 to 4 inches in the flaccid (non-erect) state and 4.5 to 6.5 inches in the erect state, with an average diameter of around 1 inch. According to studies, a flaccid penis length of less than 1.6 inches or an erect penis length of less than 3 inches is generally considered medically small and may be evaluated for treatment options.
It is a common myth that a larger penis size guarantees female satisfaction. In reality, a penis that is too large can cause discomfort during intercourse. Similar to how the glans penis is the most sensitive area for men, the primary region responsible for sexual pleasure in women is located within the first 2 inches of the vaginal canal. Therefore, both very large and very small penis sizes have minimal impact on a woman's sexual satisfaction.
The only reliable method for significantly increasing penis size is surgical intervention, which may include:
Other methods with limited effectiveness include:
Always consult a qualified medical professional before starting any treatment or exercise to avoid complications or injury.
I hope this answers your query.
Thank you.
