Safest Way to Increase Penis Size

If a man says that he has never thought of what it would be like to gain an extra couple of inches in the length of his penis, it is safe to assume that he either has a rather large penis – or he’s lying.  In actual fact it is more likely that he is lying because even men with extraordinarily large penises will from time to time wonder what it would be like if it was even bigger.  It is human nature to wonder such things.

Why is Penis Size Important?

Penis size has always been a very personal and somewhat touchy subject for men.  At first there was the whole debacle average penis size being reported as over six inches in length.  Fortunately, this was corrected after finding that the study was based on men who had measured their own penises and were, in fact, wrong.  To gain accurate results, the penis must be measured in a precise way.  Once another study was performed, allowing only medical professionals to measure and record the findings, the new, more achievable average length of an adult penis now stands at between 5.4 and 5.9 inches.

Men with especially small penises (3 inches or smaller when erect) may find certain penile functions difficult.  Urinating whilst standing is a common problem, as is, being able to penetrate a woman’s vagina in certain sexual positions.  Having these basic functions stripped away completely, or finding them difficult can motivate men to find a way of enlarging their penis.

For most men though, they will fall into the category of “normal” when it comes to the size of their penis.  However, for many men, the size of their penis seems inadequate and, whether this is actually true or not, they feel as though it is something to be embarrassed about or even ashamed of.  This kind of mentality can lead to all sorts or relationship problems.  If a man deems himself, or in this case his penis, to be inadequate, self-confidence issues will surely arise.  This will undoubtedly lead to frustration and possibly any number of sexual dysfunctions.  In addition to relationship troubles, men who suffer from low self-esteem because of the size of their penis are unlikely to cope well in work or social situations s the feeling of inadequacy leaks into either or both areas.

Proven Methods of Penis Enlargement

There are a variety of methods which are marketed to increase penis size.  However, there are really only two options that have been proven to work; surgery and penis extender devices.

Surgical methods include:

• Skin grafts – Skin is taken from donor areas around the body, and wrapped around the shaft of the penis.  This increases girth but not length of the penis, although it is a common opinion that in regards to sex, girth is much more beneficial to pleasuring a woman than length.
• Fat injections – Fat is taken by liposuction from areas of the body and injected along the shaft of the penis. This is considered to be one of the least invasive and therefore safest of the procedures, yet the body’s natural reaction is to absorb the fat back into its system.  Due to this, the course of injections must be repeated a few months after the initial procedure and there is no lifetime guarantee that the effects will last.
• Penile lengthening – The most common procedure to lengthen the penis is to cut the ligaments which support the penis.  By doing this, the part of the penis which is inside the body is not held in place anymore and is now seen on the exterior.  Whilst this may gain some inches in the penises flaccid state, erection length will be roughly the same.

Penis extender devices use traction to gradually stretch the penis using measured, applied pressure.  As the penis is stretched in this way, the tissue tears (these are so small they cannot be seen by the naked eye or felt by the user) and a process called mitosis begins.  Mitosis happens when the body discovers a need to heal wounds by generating new tissue.  Cells divide and multiply, filling the gaps in the tissue where the tears have formed, adding length and girth proportionately.  Generally speaking the device should be worn for between six and eight hours, daily for several months.

Which is the Safest?

Penis extender devices are by far the safest method of enlarging a man’s penis.  Any surgery is risky, and penis enlargement surgeries are no different.  Aside from being expensive, penis enlargement surgeries carry many side-effects and risks varying from the embarrassing to disastrous.  In particular, the penis lengthening technique listed above may destroy all erectile function or even shorten the penis if the surgery goes wrong.

The traction method employed by penis extender devices has been around for literally thousands of years and is still used today in western medicine to extend limbs.  It should be noted though, that all devices are not made in the same way and research should be done on each device to ensure the correct materials have been used and the device is put together well to ensure ultimate safety in use.
