There are several methods for increasing penis size, but most non-surgical techniques generally offer temporary or modest improvements rather than permanent growth.
Non-surgical Methods
- Stretching exercises (jelqing) : These involve manual stretching motions that create micro-tears in penile tissue, which may heal and slightly increase length and girth over time. However, these effects are typically small and results vary. Stretching sessions should be done carefully and not exceed recommended durations to avoid injury.
- Penis pumps : These devices use vacuum suction to draw blood into the penis, causing temporary swelling and a firmer erection. While pumps can improve erection quality, they do not cause lasting size increase.
- Pelvic floor exercises (Kegels) : Strengthening pelvic muscles increases blood flow and can lead to harder erections, which may create a perception of larger size, but it does not physically enlarge the penis.
- Natural supplements : Ingredients like ginseng, yohimbine, maca, gingko, and horny goat weed may support blood flow and libido but lack solid clinical evidence for permanent size enhancement.
Surgical and Medical Options (Permanent)
- Ligamentolysis (suspensory ligament release) : This surgery frees the internal part of the penis, increasing visible length. It is a permanent procedure done under expert surgical care.
- Fat injections and grafts : Fat from the patient's body can be used to increase girth, although results vary and some procedures may cause scarring or absorption of fat over time.
- Penile implants and fillers : Implants can restore or increase size, especially for erectile dysfunction, while hyaluronic acid fillers temporarily increase girth but may be absorbed.
- These surgeries carry risks and should be performed by experienced specialists.
Other Helpful Notes
- Weight loss around the abdomen can reveal more visible penis length since excess fat can hide part of the penis.
- Viagra and other ED medications improve erection firmness but do not increase penis size.
In summary, non-surgical methods may temporarily improve size or erection quality, but permanent enlargement generally requires surgery. Safety and realistic expectations are important when considering any approach.
