Patient's question:
Patient Gender: Unfortunate BoyDescription of Symptoms: The testicles and penis are about the size of a 10-year-old child. Erections are only about 8-9 centimeters, which is around the age of 12. [Perhaps even earlier, when I was younger and didn't understand.] There has been no further growth since then. However, at the age of 15, there has been the beginning of hair growth and darkening.
Doctor's answer:
Penile micropenis is an abnormal phenomenon, referring to the condition where the length and circumference of an adult male penis under normal room temperature and physiological conditions are smaller than the average values of normal males. Its main side effect is primarily affecting normal sexual life. Currently, there are some misconceptions about penile micropenis. For ordinary men, if they can engage in sexual life after an erection, it does not fall under the category of penile micropenis. Currently, penile micropenis is mainly believed to be caused by genetics. Some people, due to misunderstandings, may mistakenly think they have penile micropenis, and the latter can undergo penile activation growth factor drugs and psychological treatment.Guidelines:
Firstly, one should have a correct perspective on masturbation and use psychological counseling methods. Pay attention to maintaining a regular lifestyle and adjusting daily routines. Avoid wearing tight clothing and sleep on time. The bedding should not be too warm or heavy during sleep. Develop good hygiene habits, pay attention to keeping the external genital area clean, and clean frequently. Participate in social activities regularly. Educate adolescents about sexual psychology and sexual hygiene to help them master basic knowledge about sex, dispel harmful misconceptions about masturbation, and enable them to properly handle sexual tension and impulses. For those who masturbate excessively, one should:
1. Encourage oneself, as moderate control over masturbation can improve one's physical and mental health.
2. Gradually reduce the frequency step by step.
3. Lessen exposure to books and films with pornographic content.
4. Engage in more activities beneficial to physical and mental health to regulate life stress.
