Have you ever been in the middle of intercourse, and felt yourself getting smaller and smaller as the session went on?  Millions of guys around the world suffer from erectile dysfunction, and many times it can be attributed to having a small penis.  The average penis size is about 5.5 inches in length and 3.5 inches in girth.  When measured, the length starts from the bottom of the shaft to the tip, and the girth is measured across from the top looking down.  How do you measure up?  Well, if you believe a small penis is ruining your sex life, you should know there are things you can do about it.

Pills, Exercises, and Devices: Do They Work?

Urologists worldwide are sceptical about the nature of male enhancement pills for growth, but some studies suggest that it may be possible when combined with an exercise regimen.  One study, conducted by a company called Vigrx Plus, indicated that men who used their product when combined with proven enlargement exercises such as Wet and Dry Milking, saw an average gain of 1.5 inches over a year time period.  While pills themselves do not work alone, they act as a natural supplement similar to the way creatine or whey protein does for body builders.

One major technique that can be used to help elongate the penis over time is called Jelqing.  This method is basically similar to masturbation, but involves a more thorough approach whereby over time, you should be able to grow more effectively.  You can read about this technique, and others such as wet milking, by signing up for our free penis enlargement guide here.

In addition, there are also some devices that, when used properly, can help to increase size as well as straighten any unnatural curves.  One device in particular is called a traction device, or more commonly referred as an extender.  These mechanical devices help to stretch out the penis over time and help to regenerate the cells within the cellular wall.  This method has actually been proven in recent medical studies, and has been gaining wide acceptance by the medical community as a viable alternative to surgery.   Read more about these penis traction devices here.

Understanding Myths

The path to a bigger penis starts with understanding why it is small in the first place.  There is a big misconception in popular culture that black guys are just naturally bigger, and white guys are just average.  The perception is fueled by Hollywood, and has been going on since the early 1980’s (see yahoo answers for discussion on this one).  The simple fact is you are born with your size, and it is passed down from generation to generation.  There is no particular culture or ethnicity that dominates the other, as studies have indicated.
