Here you will learn all about misconceptions about penis size and how you can be perfectly happy with the size of penis you have.

There are many misconceptions about penis size and here we separate fact from fiction.

Currently penis size is big business there is more than $1 billion per year spent on vitamins, creams, pumps etc

No one knows penis size better than condom manufacturers.

Here are some facts on penis size from their research:

• Research shows that more than 70 percent of men have penises that measure between 5 and 7 inches when erect.

A penis is considered abnormally small only if it measures less than 3 inches when erect, and even then it might not matter

• The above size statistics are true for all the races of mankind. The concept that black men have a large penis while Japanese have small ones is totally false.

• A recent Dutch study of 375 sexually active women who had recently given birth suggests that the surveys are accurate — to a point. Seventy-nine percent of the women said that penis length is unimportant, and 69 percent of them said the same about penis girth.

• Exercise and food supplements can enlarge the size of your penis is totally false.

Penis size and your partner

Your partner is the best judge of size, but try to remember when you were young and in high school. ..

To make money, and feed on men’s insecurity about their penis size and possibility they may have a small penis many products are sold that simply dont work.

How to increase small penis 4 methods guaranteed not to work!

There are several methods recommended to increase penis size and surprise, surprise, none of them work. Here are 4 examples.

1.Stretching, and squeezing – sometimes known as jelquing. These are exercises that are supposed to be performed each day for an indefinite period of time.

Although they appear safer than other methods, they can lead to severe scar formation, and disfigurement.

The only result gained is a soft penis that has a somewhat larger appearance. This method has no affect on the erect penis.

2.Vacuum pumps and other devices. Because pumps force blood into the penis, making it swell, they can sometimes be useful in the treatment of impotence.

This may create an illusion of a larger penis, and the results are seldom permanent. Rather, repeated damages the elastic tissue in the penis, finally producing softer erections, or no erections at all.

3.Stretching with penile weights. This technique is dangerous, and very likely to cause permanent damage to your penis.

4.Pills, lotions, and hormone creams. These can contain vitamins, minerals, herbs. They sometimes have chemicals similar to Viagra and Cialis.

They also can contain hormones such as testosterone. Note that there is no evidence that it or any other substance can increase penis size in adult men. The opposite is rather the case.

Another method to increase a small penis size is cosmetic surgery.

In these surgical procedures, please note that EVERY professional medical society have all issued policy statements against cosmetic surgical procedures to enhance the penis.

The results can be catastrophic.

To lengthen a penis, the surgery typically involves cutting the suspensory ligament that attaches the penis to the pubic bone and moving skin from the abdomen to the penile shaft.

As the suspensory ligament stabilizes and gives an upward tilt to an erect penis, after surgery, the penis will not longer be able to achieve this tilt.

Such surgery can cause the penis to wobble, erect at strange angles, and more often than not, cause unpleasant side-effects.

On the negative side, after various types of cosmetic penile enhancement surgery, some men have had to undergo additional correction operations to address the deformities caused by the original procedure.

Some of the negative effects of this type of surgery are scarring, fat clumps, low-hanging penis, loss of sensitivity, bumps, lumps, shorter penis, and hair on the base of the penis. Other complaints include persistent pain, impotence, and urinary incontinence

So, unless your partner (s) remarks that something is wrong, follow the old adage of “not fixing what isn’t broken”.

On the other hand, take some time to understand your partner’s physical, emotional needs and desires, and you may do a great deal more to improve your sexual relationship than would changing the size of your penis.

The myth of the small penis is exactly that and most women are more interested in a loving partner more than penis size. Of course, there are exceptions but generally men should not be concerned over size.

The commonest worries related to the penis are size, erectile dysfunction, and premature ejaculation. The average penis is 6.2 inches long and 3.7 inches wide. Penis size tends to vary slightly with ethnicity. Men always associate manliness with an above average penis size, while women often give varying answers because of shyness or social stigma.

Many men in their 20s and 30s are unhappy about the size of their penis and suffer from performance anxiety. This problem is often seen in men who are either introvert or lack confidence overall.

Some women say that penis size does not matter and only passion and love matter during intercourse. Others openly say that bigger the penis, greater the pleasure due to the friction caused.

Erectile dysfunction involves no erection or weak erection, while premature ejaculation implies early or untimely ejaculation of the semen. Both types of problem have physical and psychological bases. Physical causes include diabetes, hypertension, surgery, kidney diseases, and hormonal disorders. Psychological factors are performance anxiety, marital discord, stress, anger, and depression.

Most of the problems associated with low sexual performance are caused by low blood flow to the penis. Poor dietary habits, lack of exercise, smoking, or old age can cause decreased blood flow to the penis. Poor performance leads to decreased pleasure. Therefore, all the 3Ps matter in providing a fulfilling sexual experience to males and their partners.

The size of the penis can be increased by various artificial aids like pumps and gels, as well as surgery. The surgical procedure is initiated for medical reasons and psychological or aesthetic reasons. The former includes a condition known as Micro penis, which affects man’s capacity to procreate. The latter is based on a man’s desire for a bigger penis.

Men, the world over, have taken recourse to aphrodisiacs since time immemorial to improve their erection and ejaculation. However, it was with Viagra’s launch that male sexual enhancement became a hotly debated topic.

Today, a variety of pills, oils, lotions, gels, and massagers for male enhancement are easily available in pharmacies and online stores. Some of them claim to boost overall strength and vitality of males, which have a positive correlation with sexual desire and prowess.

Others offer remedies for specific problems like erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation, by claiming to increase the size, firmness, and period of erection and delaying ejaculation, respectively.

Apart from oral medicines and locally applied products, men take recourse to counseling to improve their sex life. This includes identifying mental blocks like fear, anxiety, and stress.

People today are more vocal about sexual issues and view sex as something more than a tool for procreation. The obsession with male enhancement is likely to grow in the future with increasing desire for sexual pleasure and gradual evaporation of the social stigma associated with sex-for-pleasure.

In addition, the vagaries of modern life are likely to cause sexual defects in men, leading them to take recourse to male enhancement products and devices.

Penis size is often a topic of discussion among adolescents, and young males brag about their size to each other. This leads to misconceptions and worries among those “less” endowed.

The average size of erect penis is 6.2 inches in length and 3.7 inches in girth. However, this varies slightly with ethnicity. Apart from size, a firm erection and timely ejaculation are essential to obtain maximum sexual pleasure.

While all men clearly state that bigger their penis, more confident and happy they feel, women appear divided on this issue. Some women say that love and foreplay are more important for sexual pleasure than penis size and a very large penis can sometimes be a put off.

This is possibly because women think that a very large penis will cause them pain during intercourse. Other women say that a big penis makes a man more attractive and desirable.

Along with being instrumental in providing sexual pleasure, the penis is vital for procreation. Therefore, penis size is important. A too small penis will fail to penetrate the female sex organs and, therefore, prevent procreation. Micro penis, a penis that is about 2.6 inches in length and 2.76 inches in girth is one problematic condition. It is seen in a small number of males and is often diagnosed at birth.

This and other medical problems like hypospadias and fibroses require surgical alteration of the penis. This procedure is known as phalloplasty. Changes are made to the length and the width of the penile shaft and not to the penis head. Surgery increases penis length by approximately 2 to 3 cm.

Girth is increased by either lipo sculpture or dermal grafts and foreign tissue implants. While surgery to increase length is safe and has no side effects, foreign tissue implants to add to girth may lead to tissue rejection. In the worst case, infection may occur and the penis may be deformed forever.

Apart from medical reasons, doctors resort to penis surgery to meet the psychological or aesthetic needs of men. This need arises when either men themselves or their sexual partners are not satisfied with the size of the penis.
To conclude, penis is important both for procreation and pleasure, but it is unhealthy to become obsessed with its size. Instead of listening to peers or sexual partners, young men who feel that their penis size is not adequate, can approach a doctor.

Lack of sexual awareness and experience leads to misconceptions and worries about penis size. Male penis enhancement through surgery or other means is often unnecessary and a waste of time and money. Only a doctor can say whether male penis enhancement is essential for medical reasons.

So, approach one if you have any doubts. As the adage goes, “Half knowledge is worse than ignorance.”

About 18 months ago I received an unsolicited email from a spammer trying to sell a penis enlargement product, this sounded like a dream come true but being the skeptic that I am and going by the theory of “if it sounds to good to be true it probably is” I refused to believe any sort of tablet or pump or traction device could actually make my penis a different size.

After a few days though my curiosity kicked in and I decided to embark on a test to find out whether the so called enlargement products actually produce any results. I started researching the different penis enlargement products available including traction devices, pills/patches and exercise programs and recruited a team of seven friends to test them. Between us we have now tested fifteen of the best selling enlargement product/programs on the net and to our surprise yes some do actually work I must say that not all of the products we have tried worked in fact only four out of the fifteen we tried actually had any effect some of those more successful than others. The results showed that traction devices worked better than any thing else It works by the principle of traction as applied in modern medicine, for the generation of new tissue to cover burn wounds or areas of hair loss or for the lengthening of bones. I bet you are now thinking of the pain… there is none, well a little pressure when first used but no discomfort. Traction devices do have to be worn for sometime before result are seen normally between 2-4 hours a day 5 days a week. After a month you should start to see some great results. The traction system has now been medically proven to work and with continued use over a few months excellent results can be achieved.

So the answer to the question is yes, do be careful though there are a lot of companies trying to sell enlargement products over the net and there are plenty of scams so keep your eyes open and do some research before you buy.

Penis enlargement test results

Owing to the rush for penis enlargement techniques today, several surgical and non-surgical methods have been devised. These methods could be substantiated or not by medical science, but one fact stands – all of them have become successes in their own right. This is because most of the average men are dissatisfied with their penises as nature has endowed them with. This feeling is compounded by the penises of other men (read porn models) they see. Without giving it a thought, men establish it firmly in their minds that their penises are nothing but tiny little weenies.

This explains the spate of penis enlargement methods prevailing today. Let us go with the grind, then. This article will try to – very objectively – describe the popular penis enlargement methods that are being used by men over the world today.

Surgical methods are the most important (and expensive) methods of penis enlargements. Surgery can do two things with the penis. First, silicone implants can be introduced within the penis, which could be inflated and deflated by pushing at a pump in the groin area. Hence, this becomes a kind of make-erect-at-will kind of transplant. It is needless to say how cumbersome this could be; and not to mention, distressing in front of the female sex partner. However for men who are impotent, this method could be a boon.

The second method is more preferable. In this, the surgeon very deftly cuts some of the ligaments that keep the penis hung. When these ligaments are torn, they will fall and make the penis appear better hung.

In both the methods mentioned above, the main fear is of the technique itself. If the implant or the surgery is done by an inexperienced surgeon, then it could lead to permanent damage to the penis. This could cause an irreversible kind of situation, which could be a tragedy.

That explains why men are opting for non-surgical techniques today. Let us examine some of the non-surgical methods for penis enlargement that are in vogue.

The most popular ones are the herbal supplements. They are used in almost the same way as the supplements available for breast enlargement in women. Just pop a pill in the prescribed dosage per day and you will get your penis increased by centimeters! Naturally, there is wide-spread apprehension whether such easy techniques work, or whether they are just a way to earn a quick buck. The herbs used in the supplements are good enough; they have been used for centuries to achieve the same purpose. Some of these herbs are indeed famous all over the world, like the ginseng, ginkgo, blessed thistle, dong quai, kava kava, maca, etc., but how much effective they are, is yet to be known. Also some of these herbs could have unwarranted side effects, including common cold, sneezing and rashes over the skin. Hence, users need to get themselves examined by their physicians before they can go in for penis enlargement through herbal supplements.

One more serious contention is that herbal supplements bring about penile increase by tampering with the hormonal balance of the body. Anything that tries to interfere with the balance of hormones is not good for the body. Hence, the medical fraternity is dead against the use of these herbal supplements.

Mechanical devices are also available for penis enlargement. The penis enlargement pumps are quite popular. They work in much the same manner – by creating pressure – as the breast enlargement pumps devised for women. The basic difference is in the shape. The penis enlargement pumps are cylindrical, to fit over the shape of the penis.

Again there are problems in the use of these penis enlargement pumps. Sometimes the pressure built up could be too high, which could lead to bleeding within the penis. Just imagine, how scary that would look! Some of the pumps have hard rims, which could cut within the flesh around the scrotum, or the base of the penis where the pump is meant to fit. The pump could tear in the ligaments and cause some serious damage.

Penis massages are perhaps the safest ways to bring about a size increase in the penis; provided they are done in a safe way. Jelquing and squeezing are the two popular types of massages. These are explained widely all over the internet. All one has to do is to grasp the penis at the base and then move the hand towards the head of the penis, all the time applying pressure with the thumb. This will open up the tissues of the corpus cavernosa and make them more available for getting filled with blood during erection. However massages done in excess are also known to cause damage to the penis, and to increase penis curves.

The best method is to make you penis look bigger than it actually is. You can try by trimming out the hair in the pubic area. The hair hides some of your penis. So when it is trimmed, your penis will automatically look bigger. You can also wear underwear that bulge at the crotch. This will make your penis look bigger when you wear your trousers or jeans, by creating ‘a visual impact’.

Finally, remember that women prefer a clean penis to a big but dirty penis. So penis hygiene is the most important thing. Keep your penis clean by washing the area thoroughly during the bath, and using a mild soap in the area.

The majority has an imagined need for a longer and a thicker penis and marketers of male penis enhancement products primarily target this group.

Teenagers are very conscious about the way they look because dating starts from adolescence. In addition, they find it to difficult to understand the changes in their bodies produced by sex hormones. Because of shyness or fear of facing embarrassment, they do not discuss sexual issues with adults.

This often leads to misconceptions about their bodies and, especially, penis size. Sometimes young adults with perfectly normal penis size end up purchasing and using products for penis enhancement due to peer pressure.

Some use these products just to test the claims of marketers. And with the plethora of oils, gels, creams, pumps, and bands being marketed, one has no dearth of choice.

Penis enhancement pumps are based on the principle of increasing blood flow to the penis to increase the size and firmness of erection. Users say that regular use for some months produces noticeable results. Some marketers say that their products even help to rectify mild curvature and premature ejaculation.

Another interesting device is the extender, which is based on traction tension for enlargement. It has an adjustable design and can be used by individuals with penis sizes ranging from small to big.

Penis massage oils also work on the principle of increasing blood circulation to the penis. In addition, they provide lubrication and warmth that enhance the sexual experience. These are marketed as non-greasy and odorless.

Gels promise enhanced sexual desire when applied to the penis and scrotum. In addition, they claim to provide fuller and firmer erections and prolong ejaculation.

Manufacturers of certain penis enhancement creams say that their product helps to reduce body fat, while improving sexual function of the body.

Penile bands help to hold the penis in position and prevent quick flow back of blood from the penis to the body. Some users say they have larger and firmer erection by using bands, while others say that they hurt considerably.

Tonics and pills reportedly enhance overall strength as well as sexual desire. Marketers claim these products increase the length and firmness of erection and the volume and thickness of ejaculation.

In general, young adults tend to use local application products and devices rather than pills and tonics. This attitude perhaps stems from an inherent apprehension about oral products.

Most of the male penis enhancement product manufacturers state that their products can be used only by adult males. However, this condition is often flouted by adolescents in their bid to have a bigger penis as soon as possible.

They may also not follow other usage instructions correctly and hurt themselves. This is possible during the use of pumps and bands. If adolescents feel that there penis is really small, they should inform their parents first and then approach a doctor.

Men have continuously been in the search of effective methods to add a few envious centimeters on their penises. In fact the quest of male penis enlargement is so ancient, that if it were in a history book, it would be listed in the lesson meant for the stone-age men. Why have men always been so dissatisfied about the sizes of their penises then?

The main reason lies in the fact that men look upon their penises as a boost to their egos. The sizes of penises have been equated with the machismo and virility of a man; which is actually a blatant misunderstanding. The fact of the matter is that any penis which lies between 5.5 and 7.5 inches is enough to biologically and sexually satisfy a woman. However, looking at the various porn magazines and movies, men get an idea that their penis is not adequate enough. Little do they realize that the men shown in these places are actually enhanced by using natural or artificial methods!

For those men who wish to increase their penises, there are a wide variety of options available. Both penis enhancement and penis enlargement have become very popular in the modern world. Penis enhancement means improving the entire look of the penis. It includes increasing the size as well as the girth of the penis, along with toning its texture and feel. Penis enlargement means only an increase in the length of the penis. Both penis enhancement and penis enlargement can be done by surgical as well as non surgical methods.

Surgery is the most effective way to bring about an increase in the size of the penis. The penis of the male is essentially composed of a spongy tissue layer known as the corpus cavernosa. The surgeon could loosen some of these tissues in order to make them hang better. This gives the penis an elongated look. Surgery brings about an elongation of the penis in the fastest and surest way, but most people are skeptical to go under the surgeon’s knife. There is sufficient cause for that too. If the operation goes wrong, it could lead to a number of dangerous issues, such as hemorrhage within the penis, loss of sexual stimulation, erectile dysfunction, etc. Hence, it is necessary to use only a well-qualified and experienced surgeon when it comes to penile matters.

Herbal remedies are gaining wide currency in the western world for penis enlargements. These herbs have been widely used in Ayurveda since ancient times, but they have become exceedingly popular only in the recent times. Dong quai, blessed thistle, ginseng, ginkgo, kava kava, maca, black cohosh, golden seal are just some of the herbs that are used to bring about an enlargement of the penis. These herbs help in extending the length and the girth of the penis by increasing the amount of testosterone, the male sexual hormone.

The popularity of Ayurvedic herbs for penis enlargement is increasing by leaps and bounds with each passing day. Shilajit, an Ayurvedic preparation, is extremely popular in countries such as the US and in the European countries. Several other herbal products such as Vrishya Vati, Dhaatu Pushti, Dhutha Vriddhi, etc. are available which help for both penis enlargement as well as a cure for impotence.

One more favored method of penis enlargement is to do penis messages. These are done in several different techniques and take no more than fifteen minutes per day. Jelquing is one of the most popular of the massage techniques. In jelquing, the base of the penis is to be held with the curled fingers, and slowly this ring of fingers is to be pulled upwards towards the glans. There must be a continual application of thumb pressure as the hand is pulled upwards. Once the glans is reached, then the hand is brought back to the base and the movement is repeated.

Even within jelquing, there are several variations. Jelquing can be done with one hand or with both the hands; and what is best is, it can be done by the man himself or by his sexual partner. In this way, the massage technique can be used as a method for penis enlargement as well as foreplay during sex to build up the excitement.

Massage techniques work by opening up the spongy tissues of the corpus cavernosa and making them better available to get engorged with blood. Hence during erection, there will be good circulation of blood in the penis and the man will also get a better erection.

Some mechanical devices are also available in the market for the enlargement of the penis. Penis pumps are the most common of these devices. These pumps are shaped cylindrically and are meant to go over the penis. The pumps are fitted with a vacuum generator. By creating the vacuum, the blood flows into the penis due to suction. Doing this for the prescribed number of minutes per day is supposed to provide the desired increase in the penis size.

Needless to say, the effectiveness of all the above methods (except the surgery) is doubtful. Some of the methods are not even patented, and carry the statutory warning that they are subject to the users’ risk. Some of the herbs have adverse side effects and the penis pumps can cause damage to the ligaments in the area around the penis. Hence, care and caution is necessary.

As a last word, we’d like to add that a man becomes a man not by the size of his penis, but by the love he can give to his family, and, most importantly, his wife. If a man is loving and caring, then penis size will become a minor issue. Thus, live in confidence with the penis nature has gifted you with and focus your efforts in enriching your mind instead.
