Over time, some men have become unhappy and insecure about the size and shape of their penis and these reasons could vary from one person to another and it is no surprise that many have resorted to enlargement procedures.

Penis enlargement/ stretching refers to using your hands or a device to increase the length or girth of your penis.

Most people who consider penis enlargement treatments have normal-sized penises, meaning that they are adequately sized for sexual activity and urination.

Penises come in all shapes and sizes, and they can vary considerably.

According to Medical News Today, a 2014 study, which included 15,521 men from around the world, determined that:

  • The average flaccid male organ was 9.16 cm, or 3.61 inches (in), long and 9.31 cm (3.66 in) in girth.
  • The average erect male organ was 13.12 cm (5.16 in) long and 11.66 cm (4.59 cm) in girth.

The authors estimated that 5 percent of men have an erect organ longer than 16 cm. In another 5 percent, the erect penis would be shorter than around 10 cm.

Manufacturers claim that products, including pills, creams, and stretching devices, can increase organ size. Some people also consider surgery.

Although evidence exists to suggest that stretching can increase your size, the results are usually minimal. In some cases, they may even be temporary so make sure you adjust your expectations before trying any exercises.

According to Healthline,one 2010 review reported that men who used the Andropenis stretching device saw an increase in size with extended daily use. Participants used the device for six hours per day over the course of four months. They gained anywhere from 1.8 to 3.1 centimeters (cm) in length.

Risks

Several structures within the organ allow it to perform its main functions of urination and ejaculation:

  • The urethra carries urine from the bladder. It is a thin tube running throughout the penis and carrying urine out of the bladder. The urethra is part of the corpus spongiosum, which turns into the glans penis, or the helmet of the penis.
  • The erectile body is also known as the corpus cavernosum. It quickly fills with blood to achieve an erection prior to ejaculation.
  • The corpus cavernosum surrounds the corpus spongiosum, extends from just behind the glans to the pelvis, and splits into two chambers that attach to the right and left ischial tuberosity (the bones that men sit on).

Any procedure focused on making the penis larger can damage these structures, potentially causing sexual dysfunction,2 trouble urinating, or interfering with blood flow in the penis.
