Does circumcision affect length?

Yes, some studies suggest newborn circumcision (NMC) is associated with shorter flaccid and erectile penile lengths, though effects on adult size are debated, with some finding no significant difference or even minor lengthening in specific cases; generally, circumcision doesn't significantly change adult penile length, but variations exist based on individual anatomy and surgical technique, say this PubMed study, this Nature article, and this Vinmec article.


Does circumcision reduce erect length?

Penile shortening is rare after circumcision. Usually, it's a matter of perception as the penis may look appear shorter without a foreskin. The most common cause of penile shortening after circumcision is related to the removal of the excessive foreskin, commonly referred to as “tight circumcision“.

Can circumcision increase length?

No, traditional circumcision does not increase penile size and may even be associated with slightly shorter lengths, especially when done in infancy, but this difference is often clinically insignificant; however, specialized surgical techniques exist that aim to improve appearance or address specific issues, but standard circumcision is not a size-enhancing procedure.

Real Questions - What are the pros and cons of circumcision?



What are the downsides of circumcision?

Circumcision downsides include surgical risks like bleeding, infection, scarring, and anesthetic complications, potential for cosmetic issues, and pain, especially for older boys/adults.

Are circumcised men better in bed?

Whether sex is "better" for circumcised men is complex, with studies showing mixed results, but many suggest no significant difference in overall satisfaction, while some point to benefits like reduced premature ejaculation and potential hygiene advantages, and others note potential loss of sensation for some men; the impact often depends on individual perception, nerve sensitivity, and partner feedback, with factors like psychological attitude playing a significant role.

Does tight foreskin affect size?

A tight foreskin (phimosis) doesn't inherently change the penis's actual bone-and-tissue size, but it can restrict full erection and retraction, creating a subjective feeling of smaller size and impacting function/satisfaction; however, some procedures for phimosis, like specific surgical techniques, might even slightly increase apparent length or girth, while other complications (rare) could cause shortening. 

Which increases pennis size?

While most non-surgical methods like pills, pumps, and jelqing lack strong evidence and carry risks, some studies show limited gains with penile traction devices (extenders) for length and fat grafting/surgery for girth, though results vary and can be temporary.

What percent of men have 8 inches?

While exact population percentages vary by study, studies consistently show that an 8-inch erect penis is significantly above average, with most data suggesting less than 10-15% of men reach or exceed this length, as average erect length often falls between 5-6 inches, making 8 inches a rare and above-average size. 


Do fat men have smaller PP?

Yes, excess body fat, particularly around the lower abdomen, can make the penis appear smaller because fat deposits can cover the base, and obesity is linked to lower testosterone and potentially reduced penile length, especially if it occurs during development, leading to what's sometimes called a "buried penis". While actual penile tissue size isn't necessarily smaller, the visible length is reduced, affecting function and perception.
