Question 1

i'm 16 my penis girth is 4.7 is that small will it get any fatter will it get to the 5's is my penis girth small?

Accepted Answer

Patience: You are young and have not yet completed sexual development. Be patient. It is impossible to predict how any particular individual will develop. Once development is complete be satisfied with what you have been given and learn to make the most of your life in general. The worth of a man is in his character not the size of his genitals. Thanks for trusting HealthTap!

Question 2

is my penis of normal length?

Accepted Answer

Just a wild guess...: Most likely yes. 95% of penises are "normal" length, with 2.5% shorter than "normal" and 2.5% longer than "normal." Those are some statistics to guess by.

Question 3

is my penis normal for my age?

Accepted Answer

Impossible to tell: You provide no information to make a decision. However almost always the answer is, yes it is normal. If you are concerned see you doctor and ask him directly.

Question 4

why is my penis bending up when i wake up?

Accepted Answer

Peyronie's: The penis bending up may be a manifestation of peyronie's disease, which is an abnormal curvature of the erect penis.  Morning erections can be a result of a dream sequence along with the testosterone surge in the early morning hours.  A visit to the urologist with photographs of the erect penis from above and the side would be helpful.  Hope that helps.

Question 5

okay i'm 18 and is my penis stop growing yet ?

Accepted Answer

Can my penis grow: You may be closing in on the end of your growing years...At least in your bones: the length of your legs and arms.

Penises can grow a bit into young adulthood.
I do know there is nothing to make it grow any larger than what your genetics have planned for you.

But, our sexual partners don't worry about our size as men as we do.  They just want you to be able to use it appropriately with sex.

Question 6

Accepted Answer

Question 7

Accepted Answer

Did : Did you suffer a prolonged period of erection prior to this? (4 hours or longer). Is the entire penis turning black (or just specific areas)?  Swelling? Itching?  Pain?  Do you have any general medical conditions (i.e., like diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular disease)?  Does this appear to be a rash, or simply discoloration? Any history of std's?

Question 8

why is my penis bent slightly downwards when erect? is this normal?

Accepted Answer

That depends: A certain degree of angulation can be normal, however don't know how much your penis is bent.  Please see urologist, who will be able to examine & advise you.

Question 9

why is my penis very red?

Accepted Answer

See your doctor: Could be an infection, dermatitis.....So see your doctor.

Question 10

what is my penis size as a 5'5 adult male?

Accepted Answer

Impossible to guess: We cannot guess what a person's penis size is. It's hard to find good, consistent info on penis sizes, but several doctors on HealthTap have offered opinions. It looks like the average erect one is 5-6 inches, so if one is worried about being less than 4 inches, he can talk with his doctor. When non-erect, perhaps under 1.5 inches would be small. In the end, function beats size almost every time.
