Long-time PEGym.com member and contributor, Millia, discusses that dreaded term “small penis.” He explores what small means; what is an average penis size; and, what to do if you really are smaller than you’d like to be.

Small is a derogatory term, especially when used in the same sentence as your penis.

What is a Small Penis?

Most men would agree — small is a derogatory term when used in the same sentence as your penis. To me, there is no clear-cut definition or an accurate way of determining whether or not you have a “small penis.” Personally, I would much rather give it a more politically correct name like…  “not at its full size potential yet.”

Whether or not you have a small penis often happens to be determined by your own perception — or misperception. There are men who begin performing penis enlargement exercises, who start at what most of us would consider to be a large size, yet they truly believe they are small. Like a slender woman looking at herself in the mirror and thinking, “I look fat!” the same body image distortion happens with men.

A small penis is really a matter of opinion, rather than a number. What some consider to be small, to others it would be huge. We see examples of this difference of opinion in size, throughout the postings on the PEGym.com forums.

Average penis size varies significantly by country.

What is the Average Penis Size?

Determining a definitive average penis size has been difficult. There are so many variations, even by geographic region that can skew study results. In one Penis Size by Country map, you can see the wide variations in average penis size. Where China reports an average penis size of 4.3 inches, Ecuador reports an average penis size of 6.9 inches!

Even studies meant to take a more demographically diverse sample come up with statistically significant differences in their numbers. In one study, the average was around 4.6 inches, while in another study the average was approximately 5.2 inches. In yet another study, the results were above 6 inches on average.

With that in mind, I take this as good news! No one can ever tell you for sure if you’re penis is small. Instead, we should eliminate the negative self-thoughts about having a small penis. Instead of feeling sorry for yourself, you should sit there and smile because not only have you just found out that there is no well defined average, but you have just stumbled upon a way to enlarge your penis naturally with PEGym.com!

Smoking can negatively affect circulation and result in a smaller penis.

Factors Influencing Whether You Have a Small Penis

What a lot of men do not realize is our size is in a constant state of change. Your penis size is different every time and this can be from many different factors.These include:

• Weight
• Stress
• Smoking and poor diet

Weight plays an enormous factor in your penis size, especially if you’ve gained weight. There is a region located right above your penis, as well as around its base, which is called the fat pad. This fat pad grows as you gain weight. As you start to gain weight, you also appear to “lose” some of your size. You don’t really lose any of your penis size; it just becomes covered. Conversely, as you lose weight, more of your inner penis is revealed. For approximately every 35 lbs you lose, about ¼ of an inch of the inner penis is revealed!

Stress and anxiety can also affect your penis size. The more relaxed you are, the bigger your penis is. Stress and anxiety constricts the blood vessels, which in turn affects the blood supply to the penis. The end result is your penis receives less blood than it needs to be at its maximum size. With this reduced blood flow, your penis looks smaller than it will if your relaxed.

Unhealthy lifestyle choices, like smoking and poor diet, can result in a small penis. Smoking and diet are huge factors because they impact the circulation system, much like stress and anxiety. Poor circulation = small penis.
