Adolescence is a time for growth spurts and other changes spurred by the onset of puberty . It can be a time of great uncertainty, as some teens will inevitably fall behind others in their development. 1
Among the key sexual maturation changes, the testicles get larger and the scrotum begins to thin and redden. In tandem with these changes is the growth of the penis which can develop at different rates for different people. 2
As sexual awareness increases, concerns about penis size may deepen, particularly if all other signs of puberty (including height, body hair, and changes in voice ) are robust. Knowing what to expect—and what an "average" penis size really means—can help alleviate a lot of the stress. 1
The good news is that penis size is rarely a sign of a medical problem. 3 With that being said, there are few answers about "normal" penis size that will satisfy an emotionally impatient teen.
Between the ages of 10 and 14, when most of the growth spurts occur, teens will often feel the need to "size up" with their peers, believing themselves to fall short if they are anything less than average. Even in kids as young as 11, the visible changes seen in others can quickly turn from a source of curiosity to one of anxiety. 1
To help dispel these fears, parents need to understand and share the facts about normal penis development with their children if and when it becomes an issue.
Generally speaking, genitals develop in somewhat predictable stages. According to experts at Stanford Children's Health, the stages of sexual maturation in people with penises break down roughly as follows: 2
What is important to note is that, unlike wet dreams and acne, there is no specific age by which the genitals will start to grow. It can be difficult to know exactly when puberty will start and how it will develop. 4
For some, it may appear as an almost single event. In others, it may develop in fits and starts right through early high school. While siblings often follow similar growth patterns, there can even be variations among them that defy expectations. 1
Even if a penis appears small by the age of 14, there is still an opportunity for growth. With that being said, many parents will want to schedule an appointment with the family doctor if their child's penis hasn't started to grow after the appearance of body and facial hair. 3 Generally speaking, by the age of 18 to 19, little additional growth can be expected. 4
The average penis length by age, outlined in Adolescent and Young Adult Health Care: A Practical Guide by Lawrence Neinstein, MD, should only serve as a guideline for genital development. 5
It should not be used to check if a teen is developing "on schedule" (an action that may only underscore insecurity). Rather, it should be used as a reference if your child fears they are falling behind in relation to all other markers for puberty.
The approximate ranges of a non-erect penis by age are as follows: 5
Because there may be errors in how the penis is measured, it is usually best to have the measurement done by a pediatrician or, better yet, an adolescent health specialist. 6
The diagnosis of an abnormally small penis would seem to be a pretty straightforward process, but it is actually not. While a physical exam may establish that a penis is below what might be expected for a child's age, it cannot accurately predict how much growth may still occur.
However, regardless of age at diagnosis, micropenis is defined as a penis 2.5 deviations smaller than the mean average for the age. 7
Early diagnosis, in infancy or early childhood, is important for effective treatment. If hormone deficiency is the underlying cause, for example, hormone supplementation can be effective at encouraging catch-up growth. 8
Keep in mind that there may be factors other than growth that explain a penis' abnormally short appearance. For example, excessive pelvic fat can obscure an otherwise normal-sized penis. The same may occur if a child has a very large frame, creating the impression that the penis is smaller than it is. 8
Less commonly, there are congenital conditions that limit how much of the penis is externally seen. Examples include penoscrotal webbing (in which the scrotum extends up the underside of the penis, creating an indistinct junction between the two) and phimosis (in which the foreskin is unable to retract). 9
Small penis size can sometimes occur as a result of a genetic disorder (such as Klinefelter's syndrome) which impedes the production of testosterone during fetal development. 8
Generally speaking, after the age of 8 there is little a doctor can do to promote penis growth in boys. For boys 8 and under, testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) may be used; research suggests that it is most effective in infancy and early childhood. 8 Delivered in three intramuscular injections over 12 weeks, TRT may increase the child's penis size to the reference range for their age. 6
For older boys, surgery may be explored to treat concealed penis abnormalities. The approach can vary by case, but may include circumcision or more extensive reconstructive procedures in which the skin of the penis is "degloved" and repositioned with sutures and skin grafts. 8
Penis enlargement surgery (phalloplasty) is not considered a reasonable option until later in life. The risk of complications may outweigh the perceived benefits, and the results tend to be variable at best. 8
While concerns about penis size may be understandable in teens going through puberty, it is unhelpful for those emotions to be echoed or reinforced by parents or family members. Ultimately, penis size should never be considered a measurement of one's masculinity or virility. These cultural attitudes only serve to undermine teens' confidence at a time when they are only just starting to explore who they are.
If your child is concerned about their penis size, take the time to discuss their feelings without diminishing them. In some cases, penis size may only be a symptom of a larger problem. In some cases, there may have been teasing at school or an underlying lack of confidence for which penis size is emblematic.
Whether the issue is physical or psychological, it often helps to work with a medical professional trained in adolescent health. By allowing an objective third party into the conversation, you can avoid any suggestion that there is a "problem" that needs resolving. Acknowledge your child's feelings and reassure them of their self-worth, but avoid false assurances and platitudes that may only add to their anxiety.

Your results will depend on the approach you take and how consistent you are with use.
Traction devices, for example must be used daily often for months at a time in order to achieve any noticeable effects.
Anecdotal reports suggest that using a penis pump can produce much faster results, but there isnt any research to support this.
Its also unclear how much time will pass before you see results from manual stretching exercises.
Many of the myths about the effects of masturbation relate to testosterone levels.
For example, one misconception suggests that masturbation limits growth in other areas during puberty. However, because testosterone plays a crucial role in growth throughout the body, and masturbation temporarily affects testosterone levels, this could be the source of this myth.
Another myth links masturbation with acne . It is unclear what causes acne, but it may relate to hormonal changes during puberty.
Other myths link masturbation to sperm count or infertility and impotence in later life.
Again, there is a lack of reliable evidence supporting these claims. One medical explanation for infertility is that it results from a sperm disorder that may be due to:
Every steroids user should learn about the impact of steroid consumption on the penis size. If you are a bodybuilder or weightlifter and you wish to start a steroid cycle to enhance your muscles than you should be well aware of its impacts on your penis size, whether it will make the penis bigger or smaller. Most of the steroid user consume steroid with the misconception that it is beneficial for them. However, they have no idea that it exerts negative impact on their reproductive and hormonal health. Steroids is being consumed as a food supplement rather than a drug so, there are no parameter regarding the quantity of chemicals used in a typical formulation Thats why most of the people are unaware of its side effects and consider it beneficial. In this article we will discuss the impact of steroid on the size of penis.
