Urology - penis enlagement


Expert: Arthur Goldstein, M.D. - 2/24/2007

Question
is it possible to enlarge the male penis without surgery

Answer
Matt, this is a common question.  The majority of men believe they were "short-changed" regarding penile size.  The average erect penis is 4-6" and indeed this is where the overwhelmingly number of men fall.  I have read the web sites regarding claims of increasing penile size but have had no clinical experience with the techniques (ie massage, jelqing, andropenis, etc.).  However, based on my years of practice and knowledge of anatomy and physiology, I find it difficult to believe they would work to any significant degree.  I doubt they are harmful but again this is just a supposition.  You probably have nothing to lose but money, hope and time.  My best advise is to learn how to use what you were naturally endowed with to the maximum.  There are many excellent books available on how to become a terrific lover almost regardless of penile size.  You might consider consulting a urologist if for no other reason than reassurance about your probable  normality.  If  you are truly excessively small, there are operations available to increase the size of the penis. However,  there are significant potential complications and because of these, this type of surgery is not recommended for routine use by the American Urological Association.   Good luck!
