Penis Enlargement Surgery
Penis enlargement surgery is performed for men whose penis length is shorter than average and who feel uncomfortable with this condition. Even if the penis length is within average measurements, this surgery can also be preferred to extend the penis based on personal preference. Having a penis smaller than the desired size can lead to a loss of confidence and discomfort during sexual intercourse.
Penile shortening, usually caused by genetic factors, can be effectively treated with penis enlargement surgery. Men who undergo this procedure often feel more confident and masculine, experience greater comfort in their relationships with the opposite sex, and overcome their sexual anxieties, leading to a more satisfying life. Penis enlargement surgeries are effective procedures that are easy to perform, have a fast recovery process, and provide permanent results.
What is Penis Enlargement Surgery?
Penis enlargement surgery is a surgical procedure requested by men who wish to increase their penis length or girth. While the penis size does not directly affect sexual performance, it is important visually and psychologically. Penile shortening may be due to genetic factors or conditions such as excess fat accumulation.
What is the Ideal Penis Length?
In Turkey, the average penis length for adult men is:
Condition | Average Penis Length |
---|---|
Flaccid | 5-6 cm |
Erect | 12-16 cm |
Penis Size and Sexual Performance
Penis size does not affect sexual performance. Individuals who seek penis enlargement surgery usually do so for visual and aesthetic reasons, to feel more confident.
Those with a penis size below these measurements or those who desire a longer penis for personal preference can benefit from penis enlargement surgery.
