Patient's question:
The penis is quite small except for the testicles, and it feels a bit abnormal, as if it's underdeveloped. What should I do about this?Doctor's answer:
Hello, an erection below 13 cm in length and below 2.5 cm in diameter is normal. If a teenager has a small penis, first go to the hospital for blood tests to check the gonadal series. If the results are normal, the most common cause is sexual intercourse and excessive foreskin. Quickly and completely stop sexual intercourse, as it can lead to poor development or cessation of growth in adolescents during the developmental period, damage to the penis corpus cavernosum, and gradual shortening of the penis. After quitting, enhance nutrition and eat more high-protein foods, such as beef, lamb, and sea cucumber. Additionally, excessive foreskin and obesity are also causes of a small penis. If there is excessive foreskin, have it removed.
