Patient's question:
The baby is 3 years old and has noticed an abnormality in the penis. Normally, the penis cannot be felt, only lifting it up when urinating. The part that is exposed is the foreskin, and pressing it down with the hand can feel the penis. When lifted, the penis looks slightly crooked. The baby also urinates far and to the side.What kind of assistance is needed: Hello: What should the size of a 3-year-old male baby's genitalia be?
Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, the penis is shorter than 2.5 centimeters before puberty and shorter than 5 centimeters after puberty, and its growth and development are abnormal, such as: poor development of the testes and epididymis, hypofunction of the pituitary gland, and obesity. Without erectile function, especially when accompanied by poor development of secondary sexual characteristics, sexual dysfunction, infertility, and no sperm, the penis can be diagnosed as micropenis. It is recommended to take your child to the urology department of the hospital for relevant examinations to determine whether it is micropenis, and then consider the next step in treatment.
