What size should a child's penis be?

Patient's question:

The child has been coming back home and saying that his penis is smaller than his peers of the same age, even smaller than those in lower grades. My child is about 1.53 meters tall and weighs about 50 kilograms. In the past year, the treatment and its effects have been as follows: no treatment has been done. What kind of assistance is needed: so many children...

Doctor's answer:

Children are still in their peak growth period, and the penis is also in its peak growth period, so it is not possible to determine exactly how long it will be at this stage because the growth rates vary.
Advice: Generally, if a 12-year-old boy has phimosis, it can interfere with the growth of the penis. If there is phimosis, I recommend getting an circumcision at the hospital as soon as possible. Let the child exercise more and ensure they do not lack nutrition. By the age of 16 to 18, the growth will basically stabilize and stop. Therefore, there is no need to worry about the size issue at this time.
