Women generally find penis size less important than men. For the latter, on the other hand, there is usually only one credo in this subject: the longer and thicker, the better. An entire industry is trying to meet this wish. With pills, ointments, stretchers, massage techniques such as Jelqing and other mechanical aids as well as surgical techniques, an XXS specimen is to become an impressive "device" in a short time.

Intimate shave extends the penis optically

There are many methods, starting with intimacy. True, when a man shaves away his pubic hair, the penis immediately looks about an inch longer. The other "gentle" possibilities of penis enlargement:

• Lose weight: The fact is that a thick belly not only visually obscures the penis, but also shortens it internally. How does this work? The adipose tissue with all its weight presses on the ligaments that attach the penis to the pelvic bones. This allows them to pull the penis a little further inward, on the outside it becomes shorter. Men who lose weight thus extend their penis visually.
  


• Thick underpants: Briefs with an accentuated front allow the penis to be fully visible and do not press it tightly to the body, as is often the case with other models.
  


• Ointments,lotions and gels: Those who regularly rub their penis with it should be able to look forward to an extension. There are adventurous self-experiments that some men report on the Internet, for example with rheumatism ointment, which increases blood circulation. In the case of rheumatism and other joint complaints, these products are undoubtedly useful and also work. On the penis, however, they can hurt quite a bit. Because on the sensitive penile skin, especially on the glans, the active ingredients can cause painful swelling. Better: medical ointments with prostaglandins. They improve blood circulation on the penis and make it appear larger for a few hours.
  

Extend penis with Jelqing

Mechanical stretchers – finally a real help for the too small penis. The devices – they are available in various designs – stretch the penis slowly but safely. This stretching effect, as in the so-called Jelqing, was even demonstrated in a study – six months of training bring up to two centimeters more visible length. The basis of the technique is the old-- "Jelq exercise"from the Arab countries.

• Jelqing (translated milking) means massaging and careful pulling on the limb, daily and for a few hours, with and without lubricant. Detailed instructions for Jelqing can be found on the Internet. But beware: the man should not overdo all these techniques. The small vessels in the penis could be injured, which permanently impairs the erection ability.
  

If you want to buy a stretcher for penis enlargement or practice Jelqing, you should ask the urologist or andrologist beforehand.

• Surgery – in Germany, surgeons perform these procedures only if it is actually a micropenis, i.e. the length in the erect state is not seven centimetres. The most common method is to cut the penis's retaining ribbons via a small cut at the penis root and sew it a little further down. The resulting gap is filled with own grease or silicone. The procedure usually takes place under general anaesthetic and lasts a good hour. If you want to be safe, you will stay in the clinic for the following night. With this method, the penis becomes at least one centimetre longer, but usually even two, in some cases even much more. The cost is around 2,000 euros.
  


• If the penis is to be additionally thickened, the surgeon injects own fat or synthetic material into the penis shaft. This brings the cost to around 4,000 euros.
