When calculating the length of male penis, we usually measure two states, one is the length when the penis is normal and soft, and the other is the length after erection. In most cases, the length of the penis is calculated after erection, so how long is the penis shorter for men?
How long is a man's penis short?
The length of the penis is usually twice the length of the adult male when erecting. The length of the penis is less than 4cm during fatigue and less than 8cm during erection. It can be considered that the penis is very short. The specific reasons for the short should be distinguished from different situations and treatments. Common reasons may be genetic factors or penile concealment caused by obesity.
There are also orchitis, cryptorchidism and testicular dysplasia, which lead to insufficient hormone level, congenital short penis and a series of other conditions. Experts must carry out physical examination, make comprehensive judgment according to the specific situation of the patient, and make differential diagnosis at the same time.
The common reasons for short penis may be that the patient is obese, with more perineal fat, and some patients have penile phimosis, which affects the development, and can be corrected by plastic surgery if necessary.
Does operation lengthen penis have effect
Penis lengthening surgery is useful. Penis lengthening surgery can be divided into minimally invasive surgery under endoscope and penis prosthesis implantation. Endoscopic surgery adopts the treatment method of external pulling and internal tamponade, which is to lengthen the cavernous body by 3-5 cm under the direct vision of endoscope, or to thicken and grow by filling with autologous adipose tissue. It belongs to minimally invasive surgery, with few postoperative complications and no obvious scars.
After erection, it is mainly used to treat less than 5cm penile prosthesis with unsatisfactory implantation degree, or has a history of penis cancer surgery, and some penile defects. Penile prosthesis implantation is mainly used to treat patients with severe impotence, and can not erect themselves. The operation is to insert the penis prosthesis into the penis to achieve the purpose of lengthening. Before sex, patients have sex by controlling the penis gas valve, which is an ideal treatment.
