Penis enlargement: expectations and reality

Among the ancient Greeks, who sculpted magnificent statues, male figures were created with small penises that demonstrated both male power and the ability to curb sexual urges.

However, if you are sure that your penis is small, comparing your measurements with those found on the Internet will certainly not help you feel better. Although you are sure to find many procedures and products (such as penis enlargement cream) that promise to enlarge your penis.

Are these promises too good to be true?

The average penis length for a man is about 10 cm. The smallest penis in the world is only 1 cm long, an erect penis of 2. 5 cm is considered a small penis.

Penis enlargement - expectations

Modern medicine has the ability to change the length and thickness of the human penis.

Surgeons can lengthen the penis by cutting the ligaments that attach it to the pelvis; but it only makes flaccid penises work longer. It doesn't do much for an erect penis other than making it more unstable and less hard. Non-surgical methods to increase length suggest stretching the penis for several hours a day using rubber bands for several months. Similar to braces, they slowly "modify" the penis and can add 1-2 cm in total.

To make the penis thicker, surgical implants or "grafts" are sewn to the sides of the penis, or fat, silicone, or muscle grafts are placed under the skin to increase the diameter of the penis. These are quite useful procedures that give an increase in diameter, but they can make the penis strange, soft, almost like dough and cause complications such as skin erosion or infection that requires the removal of all implants. And when it does, the disfigurement can be irreversible and truly destroy what was originally perfectly normal.

So how do you know which one is right for you? What is certain? What is effective?

To be honest, no way. This is due to the fact that penile surgery, like all plastic surgery, is rather aimed at satisfying the whims of the patient and does not solve the main problem. This is why there is a lack of published data on individual penis enlargement procedures, let alone comparisons between them.

Penis enlargement is a reality

However, a scientific article was recently published that reviewed the results of 17 studies of 21 surgical and non-surgical procedures used for penis enlargement. The results turned out to be very revealing.

1192 men with a healthy penis who underwent penile enlargement surgery were studied. The vast majority of men who undergo procedures had normal sized penises before the procedure.

Surgical procedures included excision of the suspensory ligament (lengthening), fat grafting (circumference), flaps (circumference) and "penile disassembly". Non-surgical procedures included injections (circumference), extenders (length), and vacuum devices (length)

Among non-surgical procedures, extensions definitely increased length, but only just

It is significant that the average satisfaction among treated men was only 20%!

If before a procedure patients received detailed consultations and clarified the details, including about the normal size of the penis, then in most cases they refused penis enlargement surgeries.

conclusions

When it comes to penis enlargement, be careful! Assess realistically what you already have and what you are going for the sake of not very reasonable fantasies.

Please note that the majority of men (80%) who have undergone such procedures are ultimately not satisfied with the results. Get complete information about what can go wrong and how often it happens.

And remember that in the vast majority of cases, attitudes and skills are much more important than size, and women do not love you for this at all.
