Patient's question:
At 17, why doesn't my penis get hard when it's supposed to be 10 centimeters?Doctor's answer:
Problem Analysis: Hello, a normal adult penis is about 7-9 centimeters in a flaccid state and about 11-16 centimeters when erect. If the penis is less than 5 centimeters in a flaccid state and less than 10 centimeters when erect, it can be considered micropenis. For most men, the sexual maturity period is 18 years old, and development is basically complete around that age.Advice: You are currently in your developmental period, so you can wait and see for now. If the penis is small, surgical treatment can be considered. Surgery can extend the penis by about 3-5 centimeters.
