I've recently taken up running,i'm 42. When i return from my run my penis has shrunk to almost child size! My testicles also disappear. This is utterly the most embarassing thing ever. At the weekend i was in a long run, after, i had to get changed, i looked at all the other men who were naked and having showers, they all looked huge in comparison to me. What can i do about this problem? It's making me depressed.

Glad Im not the only one this happens to but what worries me is that when you watch the Olympics or other athletic events with runners you can see quite clearly their penis and balls moving with the movement and they still seem to be well endowed. I know a warm bath helps but it still seems to take a while for my penis to regain its proper size after running.Another guy told me its because of the cold but Im literally dripping sweat from being hot so how can that be.

Are there any studies on the effects of running on penis size?[/b]

I've had this problem also, but my coach told me it's just a sign that your body decided to send blood to other parts of the body it deemed more important at the time. Since a while after exercising I return to normal, and it doesn't shrink whenever I do anaerobic workouts, I sort of assumed that was the truth.

i'm fine with the fluxation of my penis. Does anyone else find it extremely uncomfortable???? I really feel like sticking my hand down my pants and pushing the head of my penis out.


Why yes, thats exactly how i feel. I've quit going to the gym and have forgotton about trying to play hockey (goalie) anymore because everytime it happens, i feel that if i dont manually relax it and allow it to return to normal, that im breaking my penis if i leave it all shrunk up for an extended period of time.. (can you break it that way?)

This all began for me 1.5 yrs ago after i stupidly did massive sit ups way to hard after not doing them for many years. I think i broke something in my abdomen. I've also been diagnosed with Prostatitus. How these 2 factors weigh in i dont know.

In fact, even if im playing a really involving videogame or driving way too fast, whether its the adrenaline or involuntary tightning of my abdomen, boom, it happens. Modern science.. bah, whats it cured since Polio?

I'm in the same boat as everyone on here. So does anyone know what causes this or if it has a name? Or better yet, does anyone know how to fix it?

the same thing happened to me. seemed like it was almost over night. been a runner all my life. then one day i'm out on a run, and i realize my penis has shrunk down into itself, so much so, that it actually hurt enough to force me to stop running and pull it out with my hand.

sucks.

so does anyone here know anything more about this? what it's called, or if there's a way to remedy this? this is the only website i could find that talked about it.

Im 18, i was running on a Treadmill in a beant over fashion, when suddenly my Penis started to retract, and my Testicles with it. this happened to me once while i was swimming when i was 7, but i had forgotten all about it, since nothing came from it.

This was 3 weeks ago, it seemed like my penis had actually retracted into my groin. at the time, i decided to rest my body, and abstained from any running, but now i just came back from a run, and while IN run i noticed and felt my penis retracting inside once again.

can anyone help me? I'm going to see my family doctor soon, but if there is anything i can do, or if anyone knows whats going on, could they help?

Yep, I too have the same problem. I remember first noticing at school many years ago now, but blamed going out in the freezing cold...but it wasn't.

It's very embarrassing getting changed at the gym. I can tell that people notice...I just want to cry out "It's not normally this size!!". It shrinks to very thin and about an inch long, if that!! Testicles retract. It’s like being 6 years old again.

Not that I've looked, but I haven’t noticed anyone else shrivelled up after using the gym.

I use weights and cardio on different days…it doesn’t matter what I do. When I cycle to work it exactly the same.

I do sweat a lot; I get very hot, I'm not sure if this has anything to do with it. If anything you would think it should have the opposite effect and everything should want to be outside my body!?

One of the first posts suggested that blood may be channelled to other places...well, I am a naturally large built guy, so maybe my muscle needs more oxygen...I don't know.

I don't like this. It even put's me off going to the gym!!

Like others, a hot shower helps, but it takes about a hour before it gets back to normal.
