Penis size is a sensitive issue for almost every man. Almost every man has heard stories about various penis enlargement techniques but are these stories true or could it be that they are nothing more then a myth?

Penis enlargement products and techniques aren't so difficult to find. Radio and television shows, men's magazines, and many internet sites are literally filled with commercials for pumps, pills, and exercises for increasing the length and girth of penis.

All the companies that offer products for penis enlargement assume the every man:

1.    is afraid he has a small penis
2.    believes that if he had a bigger penis, he would become a better lover
3.    would like to get a bigger penis the easy way

Normal penis size

Research showed that more than 70 % of men have penises whose size is between 5 and 7 inches when erected. A penis is considered small only if it measures less than 5 inches.

Lifestyles Condom Corporation has done several researches on this subject and their results are showed in the following table:

Average penis length	Percentage of man
3.75" = 9.52 cm	0.2%
4.00" = 10.16 cm	0.3%
4.25" = 10.79 cm	0.2%
4.50" = 11.43 cm	0.7%
4.75" = 12.06 cm	0.8%
5.00" = 12.70 cm	2.9%
5.25" = 13.33 cm	2.0%
5.50" = 13.97 cm	4.4%
5.75" = 14.60 cm	9.0%
6.00" = 15.24 cm	10.8%
6.25" = 15.87 cm	24.3%
6.50" = 16.51 cm	23.9%
6.75" = 17.14 cm	9.3%
7.00" = 17.78 cm	6.7%
7.25" = 18.41 cm	1.0%
7.50" = 19.05 cm	1.0%
7.75" = 19.68 cm	0.9%
8.00" = 20.32 cm	0.8%
8.25" = 20.95 cm	0.3%
8.50" = 21.59 cm	0.3%
8.75" = 22.22 cm	0.1%
9.00" = 22.86 cm	0.1%

Statistic facts that will calm every man:

According to statistics, 85% of all men cannot have intercourse longer than 3 minutes before ejaculating, due to an underdeveloped and weak PC Muscle.

•    Over 98% of men would increase penis size if they knew how.
•    On the other side, 93% of women have never achieved an orgasm during intercourse, and 76% admit that they are dissatisfied with their partner’s sexual performance.
•    More then 30 million men in the USA alone suffer from Erectile Dysfunction (Impotence)
•    The majority of men have very poor blood circulation to the penis.
•    At least 99% of all men have a weaker, smaller and underdeveloped penis to what they could have.

The most common penis enlargement techniques

There are many penis enlargement techniques and exercises. Supposedly, every single one of them is effective, because there is no serious scientific research that could validate any type of these techniques of enlargement. The companies that promote them rely only on testimonials.
They could be divided into two big groups: non-surgical and surgical methods.

Some of the most common non-surgical methods are:

•    Vacuum Pumps - These pumps work by forcing blood into the penile shaft through simple air suction. This probably sounds easy and reasonable.

Possible complications- loss of feeling, impotence and damaged blood vessels

•    Medications and pills – Although, there are many commercials for so-called “miracle” pills that will make your penis grow in length and girth, every person should keep in mind that there is no FDA-approved medication for penis enhancement. The most common is definitely Viagra pill.

Possible complications - You cannot be sure what ingredients these pills contain so they could represent a serious health threat!

•    Weigh “lifting”– this method is based on hanging small weights from the tip of a man’s penis repeatedly over time. Although this method mightseam a bit vigorous, a lot of man say that they managed to increase the size of their penises.

Possible complications – Many experts claim that hanging weight on the penis can result in stretch marks, lesions and decreased sensation in it

•    Supplements – There are some supplements on the market such as Vitalzym systemic enzyme whose primary role is to help eat away up fibrosis in the spongy cavity and keep it away.

•    Lotions – These lotions contain vitamins, minerals, herbs or hormones such as testosterone. But there's no evidence that either the hormones or these other substances can increase penis size

•    Exercises – Similar to body weights lifting and increasing of muscles size, some claim that it can be done with penis too.

Some of them are made to increase the length, some to increase the girth and some to increase the size of glans!

The two most common penis exercises programs are difinitely:

* Jelqing penis enlargement exercises program
* Kegel Contractions

However, there are other exercises programs such as: PC Ligament Stretch and Wally Wally Ups…

Jelqing penis enlargement exercises program

Jelqing method is performed by doing "milking" motions on the base of penis. It is supposed to gradually increase the length and circumference of the penis.

People who practice these exercises hope that this will force more blood into the spongy tissue of the penis called cavernous bodies.

People who invented this method of penis enlargement claim that this technique not only streches the tissues of the penis over time but also stretches the suspensory ligament of the penis, which could be crucial for changes in length. It should be done daily in sessions that should last at least 30 minutes.

Here are some instructions:

   1. first thing you should do is to have a warm bath
   2. use a lot of artificial lubricants such as Vaseline
   3. you should never do the exercises while your penis is in erection - this could be very important because vein damage could result if the penis is milked in its fully erect state
   4. squeeze the penis gently and start with “milking” motions
   5. when you fell the need to ejaculate stop for a minute and then continue with milking
   6. after your exercise session, wrap a hot and wet towel around your penis tight to keep the blood in it as long as possible

Men that were doing this continually for a year at least 30 minutes a day supposedly increased the size of their penis in erection for 2-4 inches in length and 1-2 inches in girth.

Penis Size Statistics for Men 18 Years and Older
	Mean± Standard Deviation	95% Confidence Interval	Maximum	Minimum
Flaccid Penis Length	3.4" ± 1.1	3.4" - 3.5"	6.2"	1.0"
Erect Penis Length	6.4" ± 1.2	6.3" - 6.4"	10.2"	2.7"
Erect Penis Girth	5.0" ± 1.0	5.0" - 5.1"	7.9"	2.4"
Length of penis head	1.6" ± 0.4	1.5" - 1.6"	3.0"	0.5"

Kegel contractions

These exercises are based on contracting the anus and muscles that persons would use to stop the flow of urine while urinating. The muscles should stay contracted for 10 seconds, which is not easy at all. It can be done more easily if the man sits on a tennis ball placed between the scrotum and the anus. This will supposedly strengthen the pelvic muscles, which may also be helpful in controlling the premature ejaculation.

Wally Wally Ups

These are very characteristic and interesting exercises. They should be done while sitting on the edge of chair or something similar. The penis should be fully erect! Then, a small towel should be placed over the penis while the person contracts the muscles to make the erection stronger. Therefore, it is a fight against the resistance of the towel. Series shouldn’t be longer then 3 to 5 seconds!

Surgical methods of penis enlargement

Increasing the length

The most typical surgical procedure to increase the length of a penis is cutting the suspensory ligament that attaches the penis to the pubic bone. This procedure also includes moving the skin from the abdomen to the penile shaft. It doesn’t really increase the size or length of the penis, but when this ligament is cut, the penis may appear longer because there is more of it outside the body.

Increasing the girth

There is also an operation, which can make a penis look thicker. It involves suctioning fat from fleshy parts of the body such as abdomen and gluteus and injecting it into the penis.

These operations are very expensive. The most common operation of penis enlargement without any possible complications costs about $10000. And yet there are several possible complications such as infection, skin or sensory loss, excessive bleeding and loss of function.

It is very important to point out that none of these surgical methods have been shown to be safe or effective. The American Urological Association, the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery and the American Society of Plastic Surgeons are all refusing to perform these operations and they have all issued policy statements against these cosmetic surgical procedures.

Do these penis enlargement techniques work?

Although many companies claim that, they found the “secret formula” for the penis enlargement, in most cases, this isn’t true! It is very important to point out once more that there is no scientifically proven method of increasing the penis size without any risk. Risks can be different: from losing sensation in peripheral nerves, impotence, scarring, and lesions to some permanent damages!
