Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I have a serious problem. So I requested you to suggest good medicine. My penis is very small and I am depressed. I am 23 years old.

Thanks.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

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 in diameter. Studies recommended that a flaccid penis length of lesser than 1.6 inches or an erect penis of lesser than 3 inches should be considered for treatment.

Longer in size will not make females happy. It will cause discomfort. Glans penis is sensitive for males. Likewise, the female sensation will be in the outer part. A bigger penis or small penis has no effect on making a female happy. The male gets an erotic sensation in the glans penis, and a part (shaft) of the penis will not get an erotic stimulus.

The best method for increasing size is surgical (liposuction around the pubic bone, skin graft), injecting fat into the penis, or injection of HA (Hyaluronic Acid) into the penis,and inflatable penile prosthetics are helpful if the size is less than 3 inches. Other methods to increase the size but have very less chance of improvement are,

1. Jelqing exercises- Jelqing is an exercise method that is a natural way to increase the size of the penis.

2. Method-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.

3. Stretching method. It involves attaching a stretcher or extender device to the penis traction device to the penis to exert gentle tension.

4. You can use the penis enlargement pump once in the morning after or before a bath. Vacuum pumps draw blood into the penis, making it swell. They are used for treating erectile dysfunction. The vacuum pump can make a penis look larger temporarily. But using too often or too long can damage elastic tissue in the penis, leading to fewer firm erections.

8. Use Aljins (Jayafal tail and Kalonji oil) 69 massage oil once a day by massage (except the glans penis) before bath for three months.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
