All about penis sizes and shapes

Does size matter? Well, when it comes to penis, not really! It's all in your mind. Most often, men assume that the length of their penis is directly proportional to the pleasure of a female. But female pleasure does not solely depend on the length of the penis. There are a number of ways to pleasure a woman!

Normal size of penis?

So is there a normal size of a penis? The simple answer is no. All men have various shapes and sizes. Most Penises come in varies shapes and sizes. And they all look different: straight, curved, long, thick, thin, circumcised, uncircumcised. One is no better than the other. Your penis usually hangs to one particular side inside your pants.

When soft, a penis is usually between 6 and 13 centimetres long. An erect one is usually somewhere between 7 and 17 centimetres long. The average is about 12 centimetres. Smaller penises grow more in size when they become erect compared to large penises. Check more details about penis in this article. 

If you want to measure your penis, do it when it’s erect, on the top side – the side closest to your belly.

No. There is no relationship between having a bigger shoe size or larger hands and having a larger penis. However, a South Korean research has shown that the longer a man's ring finger is compared to his index finger, the longer his penis.

Can you increase the penis size?

Simple answer is no. You cannot increase the size of the penis. There are no non-surgical techniques that can permanently make a penis bigger. Please do no believe in false advertisements that claim that a pill can increase the size of a penis. Do not fall prey to such ads and do no take any such pills on your own - they can be detrimental to your health. 

Other penis enlargement products like pills, weights, and stretching devices don’t usually work in the long term. At worst they can be very dangerous to your health.

Micropenis - what is it?

A micropenis is a penis that measure less than 2.75 inches/ 7cm in length when erect. It happens if the level of the male hormone testosterone is too low when the baby is developing in the womb. Most men who are worried they have a micropenis and who see a doctor don’t actually have the condition.

Most often, it’s that the penis looks smaller than it really is because it’s hidden by fat around the genitals. In other cases, if a boy has not reached puberty just yet, his penis may appear smaller compared to his body size. This is not something to worry about, because once puberty starts, the penis will also grow in length and width.
