Many
men
obsess over the size of their private part (doctors even
have a name for it - penile dysmorphic disorder) and some
even spend money on all kinds of pills, lotions, and
devices. Those who can afford it even resort to plastic
surgery in a procedure that is called
penile augmentation.

And what is
the average size of a male organ? It is smaller than most
people think. The maximum length averages just 5.5 inches
and the range is 3.7 (Oriental men) to 6.2 inches (French
men), according to data compiled by Dr. Eduardo Gomez de
Diego, CEO of Andromedical. (Related:

So should you have penile augmentation surgery (PAS)?
It is
very tempting to undergo this surgery with the expectation
that suddenly all the women in the world will turn into
your slaves and you can become a super-performer in bed.
In fact that is the main problem. Men have unrealistic
expectations when it comes to
enlarging their penises. The
logic is same as
hymen repair surgery. |
In
a study published by Chi-Ying Li, Oliver Kayes,
Phillip D. Kell, Nim Christopher, Suks Minhas, and
David J. Ralph in European Urology medical
journal, they find that the mean increase is just
about half an inch (approximately 1.3 cm). Only
one out of three men were actually satisfied with
the results. The scientists conclude that
"Division of the penile suspensory ligament or
other augmentation techniques may
increase penile length but usually not to a
degree that satisfies the patient."

surgery) In
fact the doctors go as far as to recommend that if
you have a desire to be bigger down below, seek
psychological help rather than undergo plastic
surgery. Only when you have undergone
counseling,
should you consider going under the knife.
After all the cost of the surgery ranges from
$4,000 to $10,000 depending on the
surgeon you choose and the procedure he will
use to change the length and girth.
