Is a short penis a disease?

Patient's question:

My penis is very small, only as big as my thumb. I am very distressed, especially when taking a bath in the public bathhouse, it is very embarrassing. After erection, it is only more than 8 cm. I have phimosis and balanitis. I have never paid attention to it before. I hope you can give me some advice. Can I not have the foreskin cut off?? First follow-up question: Is it painful to have the foreskin cut off?? Do I need to be hospitalized?? Is the penis so short that it affects sexual intercourse or future fertility?? Is there any way to make the penis bigger?? Second follow-up question: The key point - Is it painful to have the foreskin cut off??

Doctor's answer:

Penis size varies among individuals. Generally, it measures 11-16 cm when erect and 7-9 cm in a flaccid state. If the erect length is less than 10 cm and the flaccid length is less than 5 cm, it is considered micropenis.
Typically, reproductive organs reach full development by the age of 18. If you are dissatisfied with the size, penile elongation surgery is the only method to achieve adult penis elongation.
Our hospital offers penile elongation surgery using minimally invasive techniques. The surgical outcome is guaranteed, with a quick recovery time—stitches can be removed 7-10 days post-surgery. It will not affect sexual activity. Since this is a highly technical procedure, we recommend choosing a reputable specialized hospital.
