Stretching penis
The penis, like any other organ, can exhibit morphological variations in terms of length and diameter. A study conducted in Spain showed the median length of a flaccid penis to be 8.75cm +/- 2.1cm (median +/- standard deviation) and the median length of an erect penis to be 13.58cm +/- 2.2cm. The length of an erect penis is considered to be potentially problematic for sexual activity when it is under 7cm. Notwithstanding such a hindrance in size, every penis is capable of adapting well to the vaginal canal. Nevertheless, there are men who obsess over the dimensions of their penis despite never having received complaints from their partner, leading to an actual psychological problem. An andrologist must provide counsel to such men and apply specific treatment where appropriate. Within such treatment, Penis Traction Devices and Penis Enlargement Surgery on the suspensory ligament that attaches the penis to the pubis are worthy of mention here.
Enlargement procedures on the diameter of the penis entail more difficulty. Different materials are undergoing trial tests towards such procedures. Penis Enlargement Surgery is not yet a perfect science nor is it exempt of potential complications, so it should be limited to pathological cases and prudence must be exercised when attempting to improve the aesthetic qualities of a penis already within the size range considered normal.
