Patient's question:
I'm 21, my penis is small, and I still have some foreskin. I always feel like it's very small. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Excess foreskin can affect penis development and may easily lead to balanoposthitis, urinary tract infections, premature ejaculation, and other issues. Surgical treatment is recommended regardless of whether discomfort is present to prevent complications.In daily life, pay attention to local hygiene. Regularly clean with water and remove smegma to reduce the occurrence of various complications. In normal adults, the penis measures 7-9 cm in a flaccid state and about 11-16 cm when erect. If the flaccid state is less than 5 cm and the erect state is less than 10 cm, it can be considered micropenis.
You are currently in your growth phase. Maintain a balanced diet and avoid factors that hinder penis growth, such as masturbation and phimosis. Development should not be a problem.
