Are there non-surgical methods to increase penis size?
I am 22 years old and my erect penis is about 11 cm long, but I feel that it is small.
My height is 163 cm.
Is there any way to make my penis larger and longer without surgery or through natural methods? I would like to know the average size of a penis.
Does height affect penis length? Also, is there any way to increase my height? Is there still hope for growth at 22 years old?

Hello: As long as it does not affect sexual activity, hardness is sufficient; length and size are not important.
Please do not worry too much about it.
Thank you!

More Info
When it comes to concerns about penis size, it's important to understand that many men share similar feelings of insecurity. The average erect penis size is around 5 to 6 inches (approximately 12.7 to 15.24 cm), so an erect size of 11 cm (about 4.3 inches) is within the lower range of average. However, the perception of size can be influenced by various factors, including body image and societal standards.
Non-Surgical Methods to Increase Penis Size
1. Weight Loss: One of the most effective non-surgical methods to make the penis appear larger is to lose weight, especially if you have excess fat in the pubic area. This fat can obscure the base of the penis, making it appear shorter than it is. By reducing body fat, you can enhance the visibility of your penis.
2. Exercises: Some men explore exercises like "jelqing," which involves pulling and squeezing the penis to increase blood flow. However, there is limited scientific evidence to support the effectiveness of these exercises, and they can potentially lead to injury if not done correctly.
3. Pumps: Vacuum erection devices (penis pumps) can temporarily increase blood flow to the penis, resulting in a temporary increase in size. While this can be effective for some men, the results are not permanent, and overuse can lead to tissue damage.
4. Extenders: Penis extenders are devices designed to stretch the penis over time. Some studies suggest that they can lead to modest increases in length, but results vary, and they require consistent use over several months.
5. Supplements and Pills: Many products claim to increase penis size, but most lack scientific backing and can be unsafe. It's crucial to approach these products with skepticism and consult a healthcare professional before trying any supplement.
Psychological Aspects
It's essential to address the psychological aspects of penis size concerns. Many men feel inadequate due to societal pressures and unrealistic portrayals in media. Engaging in open discussions with partners or seeking therapy can help alleviate feelings of insecurity. Remember, sexual satisfaction is influenced more by emotional connection and technique than by size.
Height and Penis Size
Regarding the relationship between height and penis size, studies have shown that there is no significant correlation. Penis size is largely determined by genetics rather than height. Therefore, being 163 cm tall does not inherently affect your penis size.
Height Increase at Age 22
As for increasing height at 22, most males reach their full height by their late teens to early twenties. While some methods, like posture improvement and stretching exercises, can help you maximize your height potential, significant increases are unlikely after the growth plates have closed.
Conclusion
In summary, while there are non-surgical methods to potentially enhance penis size, many of these methods come with limitations and risks. It's crucial to have realistic expectations and to focus on overall health and self-acceptance. If concerns about penis size significantly impact your self-esteem or mental health, consider speaking with a healthcare professional or a therapist who can provide guidance and support. Remember, confidence and self-worth are not defined by size but by how you carry yourself and treat others.
