Every man is probably interested in ways to change the size of the penis. On various medical and "amateur" forums, a lot of advice is given, ranging from using all kinds of creams, ointments, doing exercises and ending with serious operations.
But be that as it may, penis enlargement is an extremely delicate topic, and each man himself determines for himself the appropriate methods for solving such a problem.
Plastic surgeons offer a radical way to change the size and volume of the penis. However, such an intervention is fraught with certain difficulties. The point is the anatomy of the penis, which significantly increases the risk of complications during such a procedure.
The structure of the penis consists of several main structural units. These are two cavernous bodies located on the sides, and a spongy body that surrounds the outside of the urethra. These bodies are cavities divided into smaller lacunae by partitions of thin connective tissue. Thanks to this structure, they quickly fill with blood, resulting in an erection.
The internal tissue of the penis is penetrated by blood vessels, and the skin is covered with a large number of nerve receptors, the main part of which is concentrated in the glans area. That is why, to change the shape and size of the penis, you should categorically abandon the "old-fashioned" methods.
Thus, doctors categorically do not recommend making do-it-yourself injections of synthol, various solutions used in cosmetology, and performing other similar procedures. These manipulations are fraught with extremely serious complications, including septic blood poisoning.
As a rule, if a man consults a doctor with a question about the possibility of correcting the size of the penis, doctors suggest surgical intervention.
Today, there are several types of operations aimed at increasing the length of the penis:
- ligamentotomy;
- penile prosthetics;
- lipofilling;
- transplantation of one's own muscle tissue.
Ligamentotomy is one of the most common surgical methods for lengthening the penis. The essence of the operation is to excise the tendon ligament, which on one side is attached to the bone structures of the pelvis, and on the other helps to hold the penis. As a result of the intervention, a part of the organ hidden inside the body is released (approximately 3 to 5 cm).
The operation is performed under general anesthesia and lasts from 40 minutes to an hour. The rehabilitation period is about 3-4 weeks. During this period, the patient is advised to constantly wear an extender. Naturally, regular dressing changes and compliance with all doctor’s recommendations are necessary.
Such an operation has a number of advantages. The procedure does not affect nerve endings, large blood vessels, or muscles. This minimizes the risk of possible complications. The cost of the procedure varies depending on the choice of clinic, the characteristics of the preparatory stage and the rehabilitation period. Ultimately, the operation can cost $170-$200 when performed in a public clinic and up to $1, 000 in a private hospital.
The most complex surgical intervention is penile prosthesis. As a rule, it is carried out according to strict medical indications (congenital structural features of the genital organs, traumatic amputation, impotence, etc. ). During the procedure, an implant made of hypoallergenic plastic or silicone is installed into the internal tissues of the penis.
The cost of such a device can be up to ten thousand dollars, but the appearance of the penis will differ little from the real one. To the price of the implant, you must also add the operation itself, which can cost another $3, 000-5, 000.
Penile prosthetics is characterized by a very long rehabilitation period, requiring constant monitoring by a doctor, taking a number of medications and complete abstinence from sexual activity. Accordingly, the risk of side effects increases.
A more gentle option for correcting the shape of the penis is injections of so-called fillers. Such techniques are intended not only to lengthen the penis, but to increase its volume. Fillers can be either synthetic hyaluronic acid or the patient's own fat cells. Lipofilling is somewhat more expensive, but it also causes fewer complications. However, the result of such a procedure does not last long. On average, the size of the penis changes by 1-1. 5 cm, but fillers dissolve within several months.
Sometimes patients are offered a so-called muscle transplant. This is a rather complicated plastic surgery, during which the size of the penis is increased using the patient’s own muscle tissue, which, roughly speaking, is wrapped around the outer sheath of the penis. In this way, you can enlarge the penis by 3-4 cm. This surgical intervention is classified as traumatic and is characterized by a long recovery period (up to 2 months). Such manipulation will cost approximately $4, 000-5, 000.
Naturally, operations to change the length of the penis have a number of contraindications.
So, they are not carried out when:
- poor blood clotting;
- at an early age (up to 18-21 years);
- infections of the urinary system and epidermal cover of the penis (regardless of etiology);
- autoimmune diseases;
- severe damage to the cardiovascular, central nervous system, liver, kidneys;
- some chronic pathologies.
In addition, it is not advisable to perform the operation if there are hormonal imbalances (at least until the functioning of the endocrine system is normalized). In some cases, the surgeon recommends that the patient first consult a psychologist. The fact is that most representatives of the stronger sex have a penis length that does not exceed 15 cm.
Therefore, if the size of manhood "fits" into the generally accepted 12-16 cm in a state of excitement, you need to think carefully about the advisability of such a serious surgical procedure.
Such an operation can cause a number of complications:
- loss of sensitivity of nerve endings;
- secondary bacterial infection;
- scar formation;
- bleeding;
- decreased potency.
Perhaps you need to first try simpler and safer methods, for example, performing some exercises at home, using attachments, stretching tissue using special devices (extenders and vacuum pumps operating on the principle of a compression-distraction apparatus). Good results are also observed when applying various medications to the skin of the penis and using folk remedies (in particular, ingesting soda).
Sometimes the problem isn't that the penis is too short or thin. Sometimes a man suffers from erectile dysfunction, which is successfully corrected with the help of special pills.
How to make your penis bigger: topical products
A relatively safe way to enlarge the penis are a variety of ointments, creams and gels.
They may contain a variety of components, the main ones being:
- enzymes;
- amino acids;
- vitamins;
- synthetic and plant components.
This combination provides the biological effect of such drugs, which is as follows:
- strengthening the wall of the blood vessels of the penis;
- increasing the metabolic rate in cells and tissues;
- activation of blood flow in the vessels of the penis;
- increased sensitivity of nerve endings in the skin of the penis.
This combination of biological effects ensures increased erection and prolongation of sexual intercourse. According to the manufacturers of such products, several weeks of regular use will help solve the problem of how to make the penis bigger. But in practice, the results are not so rosy. Indeed, the size of the penis increases, but with the combined use of a cream or spray with exercises, gymnastics, and the use of extenders.
Such preparations are applied as follows: the required amount of cream is squeezed onto the index finger or sprayed onto the skin of the penis (when using a spray) and evenly distributed in a thin layer along the entire length of the penis. The procedure is repeated twice a day - in the morning and in the evening after carrying out the usual hygiene measures. Do not wash off the product and wait until it is completely absorbed into the skin. If necessary, blot the remainder with a paper towel.
The advantage of such funds is the absence of a systemic effect. The drugs act directly in the area of application, so there are practically no contraindications to their use. But it is better to refrain from using them if you are prone to allergic reactions and are individually intolerant to the components of the cream or spray. In addition, the use of such drugs will have to be temporarily abandoned if a rash, dermatosis, or damage to the skin of the penis appears.
To solve the problem of how to make the penis bigger, it is recommended to use the following means:
- a cream that contains amino acids (L-arginine and glycine), magnesium and guarana extract, thanks to which the product has a positive effect on the length and volume of the penis;
- spray based on vitamins, minerals, pectins and essential oils. Manufacturers of the spray guarantee penis enlargement up to 35% within 1-1. 5 months of use;
- a product with betaine, arginine and other amino acids can be sprayed onto the skin of the penis twice a day and applied shortly before sexual intercourse; it will not only help lengthen the penis, but also improve erections.
As a rule, the use of such drugs is not accompanied by any complications. In isolated cases, the appearance of itching, rash and burning is noted. This indicates the development of an allergic reaction. In this case, the product must be washed off the skin with running water and try replacing it with another cream or spray.
The forums advise applying anticoagulant ointment to the skin, which can be purchased at every pharmacy. However, this drug should be used with extreme caution due to the high risk of side effects.
Increasing the volume of the penis: the use of alternative medicine, exercises and massage, various devices
It is possible to prevent the development of erectile dysfunction, improve potency and libido, and increase the effectiveness of other methods of penis enlargement using a variety of folk remedies.
It is recommended to take ready-made pharmaceutical preparations orally based on:
- horse chestnut;
- ginkgo biloba;
- ginseng;
- Echinacea purpurea;
- Rhodiola rosea.
Extracts of these plants are included in ready-made tablets and tinctures. They are taken in accordance with the instructions for several months. You can add thyme, linden blossom, lemon, raspberries and currants to tea. The use of wormwood infusion also has good results. To do this, pour a teaspoon of plant seeds with two glasses of boiling water, leave for 2 hours and filter. The resulting drink is divided into three equal parts and taken 3 times a day before meals.
Hirudotherapy is also useful. When attached to the skin, a leech releases dozens of unique biologically active substances into the bloodstream. They are attached to the lumbar region, pubis, inner thighs and other reflex points, which will be determined by the hirudotherapist after examining the patient.
Increasing the volume and length of the penis is quite possible with the help of a number of exercises that combine stretching and massaging movements. The most common and effective technique is jelqing. Such gymnastics helps to add much-desired centimeters not only in the length, but also in the thickness of the genital organ.
The essence of this technique is as follows. The base of the penis is firmly grasped with the thumb and index finger. Then, without unclenching them, forcefully move the hand down towards the head. To make it easier to glide over the skin, you can apply a lubricant to the penis before performing the exercise.
The movements should be rhythmic, moving the fingers from the base to the head should take about 3-4 minutes, then the hand is changed. You should start with a small number of repetitions, then increase the number of movements to 200 (one hundred with each hand).
More tangible results can be achieved by using certain devices. Extenders, which are designed to stretch the tissues of the penis, have gained the most popularity. Modern modifications are more expensive, but they are more convenient to use, designed for prolonged wear throughout the day, and do not cause discomfort or pain.
All extenders are attached at the base of the penis, but they differ in the method of fixation in the glans area. Modified devices securely cover the head, which eliminates the possibility of complications.
Vacuum pumps are easier to use. The action of such devices is based on creating a vacuum in the penis area, which stimulates a sharp flow of blood and metabolic processes in the tissues. They are somewhat cheaper than extenders, but less effective. More often they are used to improve erection.
Increasing the volume of the penis with an almost 100% guarantee is possible only through surgical intervention. However, this procedure is quite traumatic and can cause a number of side effects. Therefore, if there are no serious problems, doctors recommend starting with exercises and extenders, and if there is no effect, seek help from a plastic surgeon.
