A member asked:
My penis was of normal size almost 4.5 inches flaccid but after masturbating last time my penis shrunk now it is almost 2 to 2.5 inch flaccid?

Size of penis: The penis is a normally flaccid organ, and does expand when sexuality is occurring. The penis inflates with blood when sexually aroused, but can change size and shape when anticipating sexual contact. The dimensions you cited are fairly normal for a non-aroused state. The passages inside the penis fill with blood in degreesd before sex, and this causes the erection.
