Does the size of the penis matter in giving pleasure to a woman during sex? Many think so. And yet …

What size measures an average penis?

Before you worry about the size of your penis, know that there is nothing abnormal if it measures, at rest, between 7 cm and 11 cm. A British study published in 2015 in the specialized journal BJU International explains that the average size ofan erect penis is about 13,32 cm tall. The circumference was also measured: on average, it is 9,31 cm at rest and 11,66 cm in erection. Precise! This result comes after studying the sex of 15 men. 

They fear more “too” large penises

When a woman is worried about the size of her partner’s penis, she sometimes confides in a sex therapist, urologist or her gynecologist. And when she complains, it is often because she finds that her partner has a too big penis, and / or that she is afraid of having pain during intercourse. Few women complain about a (very) small penis. And if they find that they do not take enough pleasure, it is sometimes because of the vagina – a little loose – and that it would be necessary to build more muscles.

The zones of female pleasure are not very far

Some men worry that the size of the penis is not enough to reach their partner’s pleasure zones. Rest assured, it is not necessary to travel for miles! The clitoris, at the entrance to the vagina, is a very erogenous zone. And the famous point G is located approximately 4 cm from the entrance to the vagina. It is quite accessible, even for the big months!

Should we resort to surgery? 

If you really are very, very worried, you can consult a specialist surgeon in this type of operation. The operation consists of cut the suspensory ligament of the penis which attaches it to the pubis. You will gain one or two centimeters but during an erection the penis tends to point more downwards than before. Only 60% of men say they are satisfied with the result. It is not necessarily worth the trouble to get started. Another intervention exists for men a little more enveloped. This is a liposuction to remove a little fat from the pubis and provide a visual more to your advantage.
