Patient's question:
Doctor, hello. I would like to ask if I am 16 years old and my penis is 13 cm erect, will it continue to grow in the future?Doctor's answer:
Hello, there are numerous differences in the penis, height, weight, and facial features of people. They vary in length and thickness. Generally, the length of an adult male's penis is 5-6 centimeters when flaccid and twice that when erect. If the length of the penis is less than 4 centimeters when flaccid and less than 8 centimeters when erect, it is referred to as micropenis. Micropenis can indeed be treated surgically, but such surgery is very complex and has many complications. In real life, what is termed micropenis is extremely rare. You can come in for a check-up at your convenience. The measurement method must be standardized; it cannot be concluded that it is small just by looking at it. As long as it falls within the normal range and functions normally, that is sufficient. If you have a case of micropenis, surgical lengthening can be considered. Currently, there are no medications that can achieve the desired effect.
