Every man is probably interested in ways to change penis size. On various medical and "amateur" forums, a lot of advice is given, ranging from the use of all kinds of creams, ointments, to performing exercises and serious operations.
Be that as it may, penis enlargement is an extremely delicate topic, and each man determines for himself the appropriate methods to solve such a problem.
Plastic surgeons offer a radical way to change the size and volume of the penis. However, such an intervention faces certain difficulties. The problem 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 corpora cavernosa located on the sides, and a corpus spongiosum which 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, causing an erection.
The internal tissues of the penis are penetrated by blood vessels, and the skin is covered with a large number of nerve receptors, most of which are concentrated in the glans area. That is why, to change the shape and size of the penis, you must categorically abandon "old-fashioned" methods.
So, doctors categorically do not recommend making do-it-yourself injections of synthol, various solutions used in cosmetology and performing other similar procedures. These manipulations lead to extremely serious complications, including septic blood poisoning.
Typically, if a man consults a doctor with a question about the possibility of correcting penis size, doctors suggest surgical intervention.
Today there are several types of operations aimed at increasing the length of the penis:
- ligamentotomy;
- penile prostheses;
- lipofilling;
- transplantation of its own muscle tissue.
Ligamentotomy is one of the most common surgical methods to lengthen the penis. The essence of the operation is to excise the tendon ligament, which on one side is attached to the bony structures of the pelvis and on the other helps to hold the penis. Following the procedure, a part of the organ hidden inside the body is released (approximately 3 to 5 cm).
The operation takes place under general anesthesia and lasts 40 minutes to an hour. The rehabilitation period is approximately 3 to 4 weeks. During this period, the patient is advised to constantly wear an extension cord. Of course, regular dressing changes and compliance with all doctor's recommendations are necessary.
Such an operation has many advantages. The procedure does not affect nerve endings, large blood vessels or muscles. This minimizes the risk of possible complications. The cost of the intervention varies depending on the choice of clinic, the characteristics of the preparatory phase and the rehabilitation period. Ultimately, the operation can cost between $170 and $200 when performed in a public clinic and up to $1, 000 in a private hospital.
The most complex surgical procedure is penile prosthesis. As a rule, it is carried out according to strict medical indications (congenital structural features of the genitals, traumatic amputation, impotence, etc. ). During the procedure, a hypoallergenic plastic or silicone implant 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, we must also add the operation itself, which can cost between $3, 000 and $5, 000 extra.
Penile prostheses are characterized by a very long rehabilitation period, requiring constant monitoring by a doctor, taking a number of medications and complete abstinence from sexual activity. As a result, the risk of side effects increases.
A gentler option for correcting the shape of the penis is to inject so-called fillers. Such techniques are aimed not only at lengthening the penis, but also at increasing its volume. Fillers can be either synthetic hyaluronic acid or the patient's own fat cells. Lipofilling is a little more expensive, but it also has fewer complications. However, the result of such a procedure does not last long. On average, penis size changes by 1 to 1. 5 cm, but fillers dissolve within a few months.
Sometimes patients are offered what is called a muscle graft. This is a rather complicated plastic surgery, during which the size of the penis is increased using the patient's own muscle tissue, which, basically, is wrapped around the outer sheath of the penis. This way you can enlarge the penis by 3 to 4 cm. This surgical intervention is classified as traumatic and is characterized by a long recovery period (up to 2 months). Such a manipulation will cost about 4-5 thousand dollars.
Naturally, operations aimed at changing the length of the penis have a number of contraindications.
Thus, they are not carried out when:
- poor blood clotting;
- at an early age (up to 18-21 years old);
- infections of the urinary system and epidermal covering of the penis (whatever the etiology);
- autoimmune diseases;
- severe damage to the cardiovascular system, central nervous system, liver and kidneys;
- certain chronic pathologies.
In addition, it is not recommended to perform the operation in case of 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 of the representatives of the stronger sex have a penis length of no more than 15 cm.
Therefore, if the size of the manhood "corresponds" to the generally accepted 12-16 cm in a state of arousal, you should carefully think about the advisability of such serious surgical intervention.
Such an operation can lead to a number of complications:
- loss of sensitivity of nerve endings;
- secondary bacterial infection;
- scar formation;
- bleeding;
- decrease in power.
Perhaps you should first try simpler and safer methods, for example, performing exercises at home, using props, stretching tissues using special devices (expanders and vacuum pumps operating on theprinciple of a compression-distraction device). Good results are also observed when applying various drugs to the skin of the penis and using folk remedies (including ingestion of soda).
Sometimes the problem is not that the penis is too short or too thin. Sometimes a man suffers from erectile dysfunction, which is successfully corrected with the help of special pills.
How to enlarge your penis: topical products
A variety of ointments, creams and gels provide a relatively safe way to enlarge the penis.
They can contain various components, the main of which are:
- enzymes;
- amino acids;
- vitamins;
- synthetic and plant components.
This combination provides the biological effect of these drugs, which is as follows:
- strengthen the wall of blood vessels in the penis;
- increase metabolic rate in cells and tissues;
- activation of blood flow in the vessels of the penis;
- increased sensitivity of the nerve endings of the skin of the penis.
This combination of biological effects ensures increased erection and prolonged sexual intercourse. According to the manufacturers of these products, several weeks of regular use will help solve the problem of penis enlargement. 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.
These 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 applying the usual hygiene measures. Do not wash off the product and wait until it is completely absorbed into the skin. If necessary, blot up the rest with a paper towel.
The advantage of these 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 penis enlargement, 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. The manufacturers of the spray guarantee penis enlargement up to 35% in 1-1. 5 months of use;
- a product containing betaine, arginine and other amino acids can be sprayed on 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 should be washed off from the skin under running water and try to replace it with another cream or spray.
The forums advise applying an anticoagulant ointment to the skin, which can be purchased in any pharmacy. However, this medication should be used with extreme caution due to the high risk of side effects.
Increase the volume of the penis: use of alternative medicine, exercises and massages, 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 purpurée;
- Rhodiola rosea.
Extracts from these plants are included in ready-made tablets and tinctures. They are taken according to the instructions for several months. You can add thyme, linden blossom, lemon, raspberries and currants to tea. The use of wormwood infusion also gives 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 numerous exercises combining stretching and massage movements. The most common and effective technique is jelqing. Such gymnastics allows you to add the much-desired centimeters not only in 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 loosening them, forcefully lower your hand towards your head. To make it easier to slide on the skin, you can apply 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 up to 200 (a hundred with each hand).
More tangible results can be achieved using certain devices. Extenders, designed to stretch the tissues of the penis, are the most popular. Modern modifications are more expensive, but they are more convenient to use, designed for prolonged wearing throughout the day and do not cause discomfort or pain.
All extenders are attached to the base of the penis, but they differ in the method of attachment at the glans. Modified devices securely cover the head, eliminating the risk of complications.
Vacuum pumps are easier to use. The action of such devices is based on the creation of a vacuum in the penis area, which stimulates significant blood flow and metabolic processes in the tissues. They are a little cheaper than extension cords, but less effective. Most often they are used to improve erection.
Increasing penis volume with almost 100% guarantee is possible only through surgical intervention. However, this procedure is quite traumatic and can cause many side effects. Therefore, if there are no serious problems, doctors recommend starting with exercises and extensions, and if there is no effect, seek help from a plastic surgeon.
