Penis size is a delicate issue for many men. In this blog, we will explain in detail about the average penis size, the criteria for a small penis, common misconceptions, issues with self-evaluation, and the impact on relationships.
Introduction
The topic of penis size is a sensitive one for many men. Due to social pressure and misunderstandings, it is not uncommon for individuals to harbor anxiety and complexes about their own bodies. However, deepening one’s knowledge can enable understanding and coping with these issues.
Average Penis Size and Criteria for a Small Penis
Penis size varies among individuals, but many men feel insecure about their size. According to studies conducted around the world, the average penis size in a flaccid state is about 9-10 cm, and 13-15 cm when erect. However, these are just averages, and many men fall within this range. A penis is often diagnosed as small if it is less than 7 cm when erect, which applies to about 2.28% of the male population.
Common Misconceptions about Small Penises
There are numerous misconceptions about small penises. One common misconception is that “penis size is directly linked to sexual satisfaction,” but this is not always strictly true. Many women point out that in sexual activities, affection, communication, and technique are more important than penis size. (Please also check out our YouTube channel for more information.)
Additionally, “anxiety” about one's own body can also be a factor that reduces sexual satisfaction.
How to Self-Diagnose a Small Penis
To determine for yourself whether your penis is small, it is important to know the correct method of measurement. Measure the penis in a straight line from the base to the tip, and check the size when erect. This can serve as a basis for self-evaluation. However, if you have any anxieties or doubts, consulting a specialist is the most reliable method.
Lowered Self-Esteem and Complexes
Dissatisfaction and complexes about penis size can lead to a decrease in self-esteem. This can potentially have a negative impact on daily life and even lead to mental health issues. It is important to understand that self-esteem is formed not only by appearance but also by inner qualities and other attributes.
Impact on Relationships
Penis size can cause anxiety in relationships with the opposite sex, but communication and understanding are key.
By having confidence in your own body and maintaining open communication, you can build a strong bond with your partner.
Impact on Sexual Activities
The quality of sexual activities is not determined solely by penis size. Technique, foreplay, and communication with your partner greatly influence satisfaction in your sex life. Additionally, choosing the correct condom size is also crucial.
Technical Issues during Sexual Intercourse
Depending on the size of the penis, some sexual positions may be difficult. However, there are various sexual positions available, each offering different angles and depths.
It is important to communicate with your partner to find positions that are comfortable and satisfying for both parties.
Risks of Ejaculatory Disorders and Erectile Dysfunction
While penis size itself is not directly related to ejaculatory disorders or erectile dysfunction, these issues can often be caused by psychological factors. Low self-esteem and anxiety about performance can lead to these types of sexual dysfunction.
Genetic Factors
Penis size is believed to be determined to some extent by genetic factors, but this is only a part of the whole picture. Lifestyle habits and overall health also play a significant role.
Hormones and Development
Penis development is influenced by hormones during puberty, with testosterone playing a crucial role. A deficiency in testosterone can lead to a smaller penis size.
If you have any concerns, it is important to consult a doctor.
