Patient's question:
Approximately 10-18 cm. What is the normal length of a man's penis?Doctor's answer:
Regarding the issue of penis size and girth, a sample survey indicates: In China, the average length of an erect penis is 11 cm, with the shortest being 3 cm and the longest 18 cm. The average length in a flaccid state is 6 cm, with the shortest being 8 cm and the longest 12 cm. The average diameter of an erect penis is 4.0 cm, with the shortest being 1.5 cm and the longest 2.5 cm.In pre-puberty, the penis is shorter than 2.5 cm, and after puberty, it is shorter than 5 cm if it is underdeveloped, lacks erectile function, and is accompanied by poor secondary sexual characteristics, sexual dysfunction, infertility, and no sperm. Only in such cases can it be considered abnormal.
The average length in a flaccid state is approximately 8.7 cm. The size of the penis only matters if you think it does. If a woman prefers a larger one, that’s just her preference. If you feel yours could be bigger, that’s just your perspective. However, in most cases, size does not affect how women perceive your body image.
Many women find it exaggerated how much men obsess over the size of their penis. After all, the average length of a woman’s vagina is only 8–13 cm. Most women agree that, compared to size, technique is the key to giving them pleasure.
