While most dudes may want their dicks to be considered ‘big,’ there’s no objective measure. So why does the obsession continue?
In any context, “big” is a messy thing to quantify. That messiness, however, is never more baffling than it is when we talk about bodies. Here, big can mean many things — in a bodily context, bigness can produce stigma and shame from both its presence and lack thereof. Add sex to the equation, and assessing what “big” actually means seems absurd. But in the case of “big dicks,” the world continues to try.
There are literally billions of Google results pertaining to penis size , and searches for “what is considered a big penis” or “average penis size” have remained relatively steady for the last 15 years. Of course, there is some statistical data to help answer these questions, though the data itself might only complicate things further. Most studies point to a worldwide average of around 5.1 inches in length when erect. “Big” may therefore mean anything above this margin, or might require a number significantly higher. It’s even possible that the average-sized penis is “big.” While we can quantify what is average, we don’t have the precise language to determine what big means.
As such, the abundance of searches for answers is almost more revealing than the potential answers themselves. The searches point to an anxiety and need for assurance that the internet writ large seems unlikely to provide.
For her, big doesn’t always mean better, either. “The focus on bigness is bizarre because most women probably agree a big dick can be uncomfortable during sex, especially when it’s slamming against my cervix.”
A married man who reached out to me explained his definition in similar terms. “I’ve had big dick problems with my wife,” he explains, comparing sex to a “6-inch diameter PVC pipe in a 4-inch hole.” Thus, “big dick” doesn’t even have a positive connotation. “Painful intercourse for the woman is how I define a BD,” he says.
This also points to the issue of girth , another variable subjected to our incomplete vocabulary. Many of those I spoke to on the subject didn’t explain their vision of bigness in numbers, but instead by describing other objects. “Girth over length always appears big, in my opinion. Like soda can dicks,” a different young woman tells me. One man said 7 inches in length made a dick “big,” but that the girth needed to be at least that of a cardboard toilet paper roll. And as writer and adult actor Ty Mitchell so aptly puts it, “The only true definition of ‘big dick’ is ‘bigger than mine.’”
Despite the discrepancies in personal definitions, one broad theme in determining “big dick” seems to be that dick size doesn’t matter at all — until it does . This can apply to both ends of the spectrum of size. In a 1996 study of penis size, researchers ultimately concluded that only those with an erect penis of less than 3 inches in length ought to be considered candidates for enlargement . For the most part, a penis of below statistical average length is still perfectly acceptable. Conversely, as many have mentioned, a dick that’s above the statistical average has the potential to be painful. For some, an otherwise “average” sized penis can be painful, as well.
The problem of “big dick” is one that has pervaded our cultural conversations around sex without being properly quantifiable. It’s a vague synthesis of definitions emerging from porn, pop culture and personal experience, none necessarily objectively true. Presumably, most men want to think their penis fits the bill of being big. But if everyone’s dick is big, is anyone’s?

If you have a penis, it's normal to wish it were bigger. But we have some good news for you: Research has shown that many people who worry about the size of their junk are actually totally normal or average in size. Unfortunately, there’s a common misconception that's reinforced by mainstream porn that a bigger penis means more pleasure for your partner—but this couldn't be more wrong. A study from 2017 concluded that a combination of deep kissing , genital stimulation , and oral sex are more likely to get a person with a vulva off—and none of those things require you to be well-endowed. There's also an outdated notion that a bigger penis is linked to how manly you are, which makes no sense, especially considering that not all men even have a penis to begin with.
The takeaway? If you have a penis, it's probably fine just the way it is. That said, if you are curious about increasing the size of your member, there are a few options. They're painful, expensive, and some of them are not even guaranteed to work; still, here are 10 of the currently available methods for making your penis bigger, ranked from bad to slightly less terrible. (Note: with the exception of non-invasive techniques such as shaving your pubes and losing weight, Men's Health does not endorse any penis-lengthening technique without first consulting a physician.)
Penuma is a silicone implant that increases the length and girth of a patient's penis, and it was the first implant to score FDA approval for cosmetic penile enhancement. Developed by surgeon Dr. James Elist, Penuma is now available at various clinics in California, Illinois, Washington D.C., Florida, Arizona, New York, and Louisiana. The procedure involves making an incision in the lower abdomen, through which surgeons insert the implant and wrap it around the shaft of the penis, underneath the skin. The implant is available in sizes L, XL, XXL.
A study published in the Journal of Sexual Medicine took 400 Penuma patients and measured their penile circumference (a.k.a. girth) before Penuma, immediately after the procedure, and 30-90 days post-surgery. The study also recorded long-term changes in patients' self-confidence, self-esteem, and satisfaction. On average, patients saw a 56.7% increase in penile girth. Two to six years after the procedure, 72% of patients reported increased self-confidence and self-esteem, and 81% reported “high” or “very high” satisfaction levels. Everyone's sexual function remained the same. (Plus, guys we've interviewed have said their partners enjoyed the results, too .)
The downsides to Penuma? First, it's super pricey. Penuma's website indicates that costs vary by clinic, but "the penile implant procedure usually costs around $16,000 to $18,000 total." Oof .
The procedure has possible side effects, too. According to that same study, the most common complications were seroma, a build-up of clear fluid (4.8%); scar formation (4.5%), and infection (3.3%).
This procedure aims to make the flaccid penis appear longer by cutting the suspensory ligament, which attaches the penis to the pubic bone. The surgeon will also move skin from the abdomen to the penis, according to Medical News Today .
A study published in European Urology took 42 penile suspensory legament division patients and measured their increase in flaccid stretched penile length and overall satisfaction with the procedure. Patients saw up to a 3-cm (or 1.2-inch) increase in stretched penile length—and those who also received a silicone spacer between the penis and pubis bones saw even greater increases—but still, these results didn't exactly blow their minds.
"Division of the penile suspensory ligament or other augmentation techniques may increase penile length, but usually not to a degree that satisfies the patient," the study authors wrote. The overall patient satisfaction rate was 35%, and just 27% in patients who had penile dysmorphic disorder.
Some surgeons can lengthen the size of a man’s penis by cutting a ligament, which can help it hang out a little further. Of course, this comes with serious risks, like scar tissue, painful erections, infection or loss of sensation or function. Plus, it costs upwards of $9,000 and studies have shown the procedure adds roughly half an inch, which usually falls short of patients’ expectations.
Cheung notes it may be difficult to maintain an erection and actually achieve penetration in certain positions after penile plastic surgery.
With this procedure, surgeons can liposuction a patient’s own fat and transfer it into the shaft of the penis using a syringe. Guys could possibly end up with a slight increase of less than an inch in length, just over an inch in width, and a heavier member. The results are not permanent and your penis could shrink back to its original size over time. Additionally, as with any surgical procedure, there are still risks involved. Case in point: a 30-year-old patient died following a penis enlargement surgery after fat traveled into his lungs, causing his breathing to stop.
A relatively new method, this procedure involves separating out your platelet-rich plasma and injecting it into your penis, supposedly stimulating blood flow to make your member appear larger.
“The classic P-Shot protocol includes mechanical pumping for several weeks, which stretches the suspensory ligament to increase length and improve circulation," Cheung explains. “Enhanced P-Shots with stem cells and exosomes are also very popular in my practice, as there are more rapid and durable improvements in functionality and size.”
But for now, there’s simply not enough research to make this a good long-term option.
It's unclear when jelqing was first developed, but it may date back to ancient Arab civilization. What we do know is that guys have attempted the stretching technique as a way to increase the length and girth of their penises.
Here's how Men's Health previously explained the process:
Does jelqing actually make your penis bigger? Most medical experts say no—and note that it could even do harm, like causing a curvature of the penis. Men's Health contributor Grant Stoddard tried jelqing for two weeks , and found no change in his measurements.
“It's easier to use a penis pump, which does help with circulation,” Cheung says.
There are a few devices men can wear daily underneath their clothes to gradually stretch the penis and add length and/or girth. Two of the earliest devices, the Andro-Penis and the Golden Erect , are still used today.
Some experts think these devices may be effective, and a very small study from 2015 showed the Andro-Penis added roughly half an inch in length. In another Men's Health story, Stoddard tried RestoreX , a penis extender designed for men with Peyronie's disease (which he does not have). After using it for just under a month, he found his penis to be approximately half-an-inch longer.
Still, Jamin Brahmbhatt , MD, a urologist in Florida, doesn’t think the discomfort and possibility of scarring is worth the risk.
“The research on the benefits of penile extenders is scant,” he tells MensHealth.com . "Plus, you have to wear them for hours a day on a sensitive part of your body.”
Having dermal fillers injected into your penis is another method of penis enlargement, and can increase your girth by an inch if done repeatedly over time. The procedure is popular in Cheung's practice because patients "receive instant girth and length with minimal downtime."
But the effects are only temporary. “The longevity of your fillers will depend on how active your penis is, as more movement will increase the metabolism of the fillers,” Cheung says. "While you'll still have some left in you after a year, by then, you'll likely want a top off." There are also potential side effects, including swelling, bruising, and lumps under the skin.
To read about what it's actually like to get fillers injected into your penis, check out our Q&A with a guy who underwent the Shafer Width and Girth (SWAG) procedure . Another potential side effect he mentions? The fact that having sex too soon after the procedure could result in your penis changing shape:
Thankfully, the doctor was able to fix the shape with additional injections in a follow-up appointment.
Think of a penis sleeve like a costume for your junk; it won't change the size of your actual, physical penis, but when you put it on, you'll have a bigger overall package to work with.
Also known as a cock extender, a penis sleeve is a device that slides onto your junk like a condom, except it's bulkier and typically made from silicone. They were originally developed for medical purposes—including helping men with erectile dysfunction engage in penetrative sex—but these days, plenty of people use them as sex toys, too. “They increase girth and length and can have nubs or ribs on the external or internal wall to provide stimulation for either partner,” Cheung previously told Men's Health .
If you're not up for stretching or injecting your way to a bigger penis (we get it), you can at least make your penis look bigger—and an easy method is shaving your pubic hair. Think about it: If your member is shrouded in a tuft of pubes, it'll look smaller than if it's visible in its full glory. Here's everything you need to know about pubic hair , including tips for shaving it.
Think of it like an optical illusion. Weight loss won't actually change the size of your penis, but your junk could potentially appear larger if it's less hidden beneath your belly or thighs.

Here's some fun phallus trivia for you: The average erect penis clocks in at 5.2 inches long and 4.6 inches in diameter, according to a study of more than 15,000 men. But when it comes to variations in penis length and width, most women can agree that size doesn't matter—what's more important is whether a guy can work what he’s got.

A few exceptions to this rule, however, might be valid. One is if a man has what's medically known as a micropenis , a rare condition Health has explored before. The other is if a guy's penis is really, really big.

The latter is something that can be intimidating to many women, who worry about whether an XXL member will fit, if it'll feel good, and if sex can still be pleasurable. And while the answers to the three questions above are yes (think about it, a baby comes out of there), yes, and hell yeah , there are a few things to know before you hit the sheets with a well-endowed dude. Read on for an ob-gyn's advice on making the action super enjoyable.

Sure you might be in the mood and feel ready to hit the bedroom for the main event. But if your vagina is not fully aroused, penetration can feel a little rough and lead to soreness . That may result in tiny tears at the entrance to the vagina that definitely won't feel good and can even be a conduit for infection.

During arousal, the vagina naturally elongates and becomes more flexible, enough to accommodate pretty much any size penis. So let those changes happen with lots of kissing, touching, and oral sex moves that will prime you for intercourse. ”You will be much better able to deal with a larger penis if you're very well stimulated,” Jennifer Landa, MD, an ob-gyn and chief medical officer at BodyLogicMD in Orlando, Florida, tells Health .

Even if you have no problem getting wet during arousal, it can't hurt to supplement your natural moisture with the store-bought stuff. “Lubrication obviously helps to decrease friction,” says Dr. Landa. She recommends looking into a lubricant that is hypoallergenic and natural , or with as few artificial ingredients as possible. Make sure it's not petroleum-based, which can degrade the latex in your partner's condom and potentially put you at risk of infection or pregnancy.

“One of my favorite natural lubricants is extra virgin coconut oil. It is moisturizing and lubricating and doesn't ball up like a lot of lubes you can buy,” she says.

“One of the main things to think of with a larger penis and condoms is the fact that not all condoms will fit him well," says Dr. Landa. "You certainly don't want to make his penis feel ‘choked’ and you also want to make sure the condom works well." Since it's his penis, he should know what brand and size fits him properly so it doesn't tear or feel too tight. But it can't hurt to keep a stash of XL size condoms on hand that he can choose from, so you know for sure you're both protected.

“The positions that work the best are the ones where the woman can be on top and control the action," says Dr. Landa. "Woman on top facing towards her man seems to be one of the best because she can control how much or how little of his penis she is ready to take inside." Reverse cowgirl can work, too.

Beyond woman on top, experiment with missionary and side-by-side sex. “For missionary, you can try putting both of your legs inside of his. This will provide clitoral stimulation and p
