Enlargement of the male penis - myths and reality

Elongation of the penis, adding a few extra inches to it - for some men this desire becomes almost an obsessive idea. An idea that pushes you to dangerous experiments, some of which turn out to be just financial losses, a waste of time and deep disappointment, and some of which - a forced visit to a urologist and long-term treatment.

The problem with penis size does exist. Some men are born with a very small penis, which makes it difficult for them to fully satisfy the sexual needs of women. Sometimes men turn to private medical clinics with this kind of "problem", and doctors can offer help to men with small penises. But, unfortunately, much more often urologists have to treat the sad consequences of "home" attempts to make the penisbigger.

Which member can be considered small?

The very concept of a "norm" for the male genitalia is quite arbitrary. Too much here is determined by the individual anatomical characteristics of a particular couple. But there are so-called "average" values, based on which we can talk about whether a man's penis is small, normal or excessive.

The starting point here is the depth of the female vagina. In infertile women, this figure fluctuates within 7 centimeters. In women who have given birth, the depth of the vagina is about 10 centimeters. In addition, during arousal, the vagina can lengthen by 150-200%. Thus, the conventional concept of the norm in terms of penis length can be considered values of 10-20 centimeters. A longer penis will bring a woman discomfort or even pain, and too small will not allow a full filling of the aroused vagina and can become an obstacle to a woman's sexual satisfaction.

Useless (and dangerous! ) Ways to enlarge the penis

The Internet is literally full of various proposals for penis enlargement by 10-15 centimeters, which in itself should warn and raise questions. In addition to the fact that all these "miracle methods" are useless, they are often capable of causing harm. There are 4 main groups of false methods to "enlarge" a member.

1. Ointments, creams, gels

Any "miracle" ointments of "Chinese" or "Tibetan" herbs will be useless at best. In the worst case, they can cause an allergic skin reaction, which will then need to be treated by a urologist or dermatologist.

2. Manual stretching

A simple "old-fashioned" method, the essence of which is to sit down and stretch the penis lengthwise with your hands. You can also try to enlarge the ear or nose, for example.

3. Extension cords

Extenders are special devices that allow you to keep your penis "on the stretch" for many hours in a row. Extenders are almost invisible under the pants and therefore can be worn for as long as necessary, but this also does not have the desired effect. Some men carry small weights attached to the penis instead of extenders. This also does not lead to any results, but the risk of injury to the protein membrane or corpora cavernosa of the penis increases significantly.

4. Vacuum pumps

The method is not only practically useless, but is also associated with a high risk of microtrauma to the soft tissues of the penis, which can lead to Peyronie's disease and other unpleasant problems. The use of a vacuum pump is useful in erectile dysfunction, but certainly not for penis enlargement.

So is there a solution to the problem?

Today, urology can offer men only one guaranteed method of penis enlargement - ligamentotomy. This is a surgical operation, the essence of which is to cut the frenum, ie the ligament through which the penis is attached to the pelvis. Depending on the individual characteristics, this method can increase the penis by 2-5 centimeters due to the release of that part of the penis that was previously hidden.

If a ligamentotomy is performed by a qualified urological surgeon, then the likelihood of postoperative complications is minimized and the male penis is transferred from the "small" category to the "normal" category, which can sometimes be a deciding factor in saving a marriage. Unfortunately, there is no other way to correct such a mistake of nature as a small penis.
