Penis size varies greatly from man to man, as well as from country to country, so it is difficult to determine an interval to assess whether the size of the penis can be considered normal.
Therefore, satisfaction with the size of the sexual organ depends mainly on the man himself and the environment in which he grows, since for a man a erect penis of 13 cm can be considered normal while for another it is an unsatisfactory size.
However, for men who wish to increase penis size, there are various forms of treatment, from pills, to pumps, to exercises, and, ultimately, to surgery. In any case, you should always consult a urologist before trying any treatment.
What is the normal size of the penis?
There is no definite size to consider a normal penis, however, according to a worldwide study, the average size of the flaccid penis varies between 5 and 13 cm while the erect penis varies between 12 and 18 cm.
In many cases, the size of the flaccid penis does not determine the size it will have during erection and therefore many doctors only consider treatment options when size during erection does not satisfy the man.

5 options to increase penis size
The treatment to increase penis size is usually started with the most natural options like vacuum pumps, tablets, stretching apparatus and exercises, however, when the results are not satisfactory, or the penis size is too small, the urologist can indicate surgery.
1. Exercises to do at home
Exercises are usually the first treatment option, since they have no contraindications or cost and may present some results. Some of the best-performing exercises include:
- Normal Stretch : Hold on the body of the penis, 1 cm below the glans penis, and then slightly stretch the penis with enough force to feel it stretching out, but without causing pain. Hold for 20 to 30 seconds and relax. Then repeat the technique by pulling the penis down, up, right and left.
- Inverted stretching : Place the big toe of the two hands 1 cm below the glans and the other fingers under the penis, to support the organ. Then, pull the skin back slightly with the big toe, but without moving the fingers that are underneath, until you feel the skin stretching, but without causing pain. Hold for 20 seconds and relax. Finally, repeat these steps 5 to 7 times, resting 5 seconds between each repetition.
- Rotating Stretch : Grab the penis 1cm below the glansus using only the index finger and thumb of one hand, then pull the penis slightly outwards until you feel a slight pressure. Finally, turn the penis in one direction for 10 to 15 seconds and then in the other direction. Repeat these steps 5 to 10 times, turning 3 times for each side.
Usually, these exercises should be done with the flaccid or semi-rigid penis, but one should avoid doing the exercises with the erect penis, since it can cause damage to the body of the sexual organ.
2. Stretching apparatus
In addition to the exercises, there are still some devices that help lengthen the penis and that can be used at home for a few minutes. This type of treatment usually includes an appliance or weight that is stuck at the base of the penis glans and which presses on the body of the penis to lengthen it.
Although the results are not immediate, with continuous use, and after a few months it is possible to observe an increase of the penis during the erection, since the body becomes more elongated and, therefore, can receive more blood.
However, this type of device should only be used after consulting the urologist, since some, bought in online stores, can create excessive force under the penis, resulting in possible injuries, which may end up creating difficulties in the erection, for example.
3. Vacuum pumps
Vacuum pumps are a great option to increase penis size quickly, however, their effect is short as they work by increasing the amount of blood in the penis during erection at the time they are used.
Thus, pumps are usually indicated for men who only wish to increase their size or thickness slightly over a short period of time or who need help to maintain their erection longer than normal.
To use this type of pumps it is very important to read the manufacturer's instructions or consult the urologist, since not using excessive pressure can cause lesions in the sexual organ.
4. Tablets for increasing size
The pills used to increase the size of the penis are usually the same used to treat erection problems in man, such as Viagra, Cialis or Levitra, for example.
This type of medication increases the amount of blood in the penis and therefore, in addition to ensuring a more effective and lasting erection can also improve the size and thickness of the penis, but only as long as the effect of the tablet last.
Although they are relatively safe, consult your urologist to see if there are any health problems that could be affected by your use.
5. Penis enlargement surgery
Surgery to increase the size of the penis should be considered the last treatment option, as the result is not always what is expected and may even appear deformities, which end up making erection difficult.
Thus, this surgery is usually only intended for cases of penises with a very small size, usually less than 4 cm. Check out how this type of surgery is done and how recovery is done.
6. Filling the penis
This is one of the more recent techniques that helps increase the circumference of the penis by 1 or 2 cm while flaccid, by injecting hilauronic acid underneath the skin of the penis. The procedure can be done in the doctor's office without surgery, but the result lasts only for approximately 18 months.
After the procedure, a recovery period of 1 month is recommended, during which no intimate contact should be made. The completion is being done in the UK for an approximate price of 14 thousand reais per injection.
