One of the most frequently asked medical questions on Google is about penis enlargement. However, for medical reasons, only 20% of the world's male population requires this procedure. In other cases the problem is purely psychological.
If a man of normal size feels that his organ is too small and keeps thinking about how to do something about it, this is a kind of mental disorder. Experts refer to this condition as a syndromedysmorphophobia.
A man suffering from body dysmorphic disorder may feel anxious and depressed, and even become deeply depressed. During which he isolates himself from society with all his might, especially from women.
If you are of normal size, but you cannot help but feel that your penis is too small, you should seek special psychological help. A person in such a situation needs support to return to a normal, full life and stop focusing on a non-existent problem. Treatment usually includes antidepressant and anti-anxiety medications.
What penis size is considered normal?
The normal size of the penis at rest is from 7 to 13 cm. When erect, it is from 12 to 20 cm.
A resting penis size of less than 6 cm and an erect size of less than 9 cm is defined as a micropenis. This pathology is diagnosed at birth.
What about sizes that are too big? Shall we envy their owners?
The man with the biggest penis is the American actor and writer John Falcon. His erect penis reaches 34. 3 cm. By the way, the impressive size of his manhood brings John a lot of trouble: it is difficult for him to find work - many companies do not want to hire an actor who has become famous with thisway. Also, a man often stops at the airport for additional checks, confusing the dignity of the actor with contraband.
What determines penis size?
First of all, the size of the penis depends on genetic data. An interesting fact is that the Y chromosome received from the father affects the fertility of the future man, and the maternal X chromosome determines the length and diameter of the penis. Also, several other factors affect the size of the manhood:
- The amount of androgen hormone in the mother's body during early pregnancy.
- The effect of certain drugs during the fetal period.
- Testosterone levels during puberty.
- Inadequate nutrition of the fetus in the womb and in the first years of the child's life.
- Adverse environment, exposure to harmful substances in the body in childhood and adolescence.
Is it possible to enlarge your penis and how to do it
Beware - Scammers!
Currently, the Internet is full of offers of means for penis enlargement. Manufacturers of ointments, gels, tablets and creams compete with each other to say how you can increase the length of your penis by buying their miracle product.

And of course, the original size remains the same.
After reading fake reviews and spending money on dubious products, at best, you will be left with nothing, at worst, you will receive unwanted consequences. And if you come across a recipe on how to enlarge your penis with baking soda, stay away from such advice! The only thing you can get from such life hacks is health problems.
Are there working methods for penis enlargement at home?
Let's consider the most popular methods that answer the question: how to enlarge the penis without surgery at home.
Jelking
The description of this technique tells how to enlarge the penis with a massage, which you can do yourself by stretching, rotating and pressing the penis with your hands. Followers of this training promise an increase in the length of the penis by 1 - 2 cm. In general, this technique differs from conventional masturbation only in that it is performed in a semi-erect organ and should not lead to ejaculation. Information about the effectiveness of jelqing is based on reviews found on dubious websites and fake studies. In fact, there is not a single official study that confirms the positive effects of jelqing. But it's very possible to get penile injury, erectile dysfunction, or a real mental disorder without getting any results.
vacuum pump
The principle of operation of the pump is based on the creation of negative pressure inside it, due to which there is an increase in blood flow in the capillaries and arteries of the penis. There are several types of pumps:
Pear manual
Air is pumped manually by pressing the bulb. The simplest and most economical model.
Manual with pump
Instead of a bulb, a small pump is used for convenience and faster air pumping.
Automatic pump
Powered by rechargeable batteries. The air is pumped automatically.
Hydraulic pump
The penis is massaged with water, which fills the pump space. In this case, the liquid replaces the air and is also pumped. More suitable for use in the bathroom.
Expert opinion on using a pump is that it does more harm than good. The size of the penis does increase for a while due to swelling, but the effect does not last long. But prolonged and frequent compression of the organ can lead to cracks, bleeding and erectile dysfunction.
Extension
This is an orthopedic device, when worn, there is a slow normal expansion of the penile tissues in length and width by 1-3 cm. It is recommended to use it for 3-6 hours a day, for several months. It is recommended to start with 30 minutes a day, gradually increasing the time by 30 minutes each day. The device consists of a ring that covers the base of the penis, a ring that secures the head and a base that measures the stretch of the organ. The tension element exists in the form of a strap or gap. The latter is considered the most convenient. You can wear an extension both at home and at work. Positive features of the extension:
- Dosage stretching of the tissues.
- Improves blood circulation.
- Growth stimulation.
- Increase in penis size.
- The disadvantage of the device is the need to wear it for a long time.
Stretchers
A device similar to an extension in its functions, but more compact. There are two types of stretchers: loop and gap. This device is easier to wear, but more often causes complications in the form of circulatory problems due to strong compression of the head. All these devices work on the same principle: the tissue of the penis is stretched as a result of the load, which provides a natural increase in size. But not all of them give significant results.
Injection techniques
Recently, the procedure for penis enlargement with hyaluronic acid injections has become very popular. Biogels based on hyaluronic acid have proven themselves well in male plastic surgery. With the help of these drugs, you can solve many problems related to both the appearance of the penis and its functional abilities. Filler based on hyaluronic acid is used to safely change the size of the penis, compensate for missing volume in those places where it is needed, as well as to enlarge the head of the penis. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia. The only disadvantage of this method of changing the size of the penis is its fragility. Over time, hyaluronic acid is absorbed. The result of the procedure lasts for 1-2 years.
How to increase the width of the penis
Collagen matrix
The principle of its operation is the installation of two cylinders on the shaft of the penis with an incision in the place of the urethra. Collagen rollers trigger the formation of additional connective tissue. The uterus itself dissolves within 3-6 months and its own tissue forms in its place. The postoperative period lasts 2-3 months.
Gel implants
The implants are placed between the skin and the shaft of the penis, causing it to thicken. This type of operation is reversible. Gel implants can be removed if necessary. To date, this method is considered experimental.
Ligamentotomy
Penis enlargement surgery is the only proven and effective method for correcting the length of the penis. The size obtained after the operation remains for life. Lignotomy is done not only for medical reasons, but also for aesthetic reasons. Contraindications to the use of this operation are bleeding disorders, diabetes mellitus, infectious and oncological diseases. It is done with local anesthesia or combined anesthesia.
How is lignotomy done?
During the operation, an incision is made in the ligament that connects the penis to the pubic bone, due to this the organ is lengthened by 3-5 cm. The procedure lasts from 30 minutes to 1 hour, the recovery period lasts about 1 month.
In the postoperative period, it is mandatory to use the extender for 4-6 months for 3 hours a day. This recommendation is important to achieve the desired result. The extension must be worn strictly according to the scheme recommended by the doctor.
