YOGYAKARTA Many people misunderstand the size of Mr. P. They assume a normal penis size of between 6 or 7 inches. In fact, the average erectile penis is 12.9 to 13.9 centimeters. Other facts, here's the explanation.

Age is actually not a factor that causes changes in penis size. Research also confirms this fact. But some of the conditions that occur with age, cause the size of the penis to change. Among them, first, when testosterone decreases. On average, testosterone levels decrease by 1 percent per year after the age of 30. This does not affect the size when the penis is erect but makes the penis look smaller because it is not as harsh as it used to be.

Second, high blood pressure affects the size of the penis. Hypertension affects the erectile's ability as hard as it might be in men in their 20s and 30s. High blood pressure affects decreased swelling during an erection so that it looks smaller even though it is the same length.

Third, common erectile dysfunction occurs in older men. Although it does not reduce the length or circumference of the penis, it can reduce the turbulentity (swelling) during an erection.

Obesity does not change the size of the penis. However, it can change perceptions about size because body fat is excessive because the penis looks small. This happens because the penis is partially covered or completely by skin folding and the buildup of fat tissues around the base of the penis.

With medical procedures, radical prostateectomi is carried out to remove prostates in prostate cancer sufferers. The development of fibrosis (filtering tissue) can cause the loss of penis length by up to 15 percent. This is done to reduce the circumference or length of a penis in people who feel his penis is too large.

As explained above, prostateelectomi can cause the length of the penis to decrease. But in a person with prostate inflammation (prostatitis), tame prostate hyperplasmia (prostate mass), or prostate cancer can cause the penis to decrease in size. In fact, penis enlargement can prolong the penis because the glands 'drive' the penis out of the base.

Pyronie disease can cause lesions or plaque to form under the skin of a penis. This makes the penis curved abnormally. The most common Pyronie disease occurs in people over 40 years of age due to an injury to a penis stem. This disease can also cause erectile dysfunction due to limited blood flow to a penis.

Lack of exercise and smoking and a high diet of fat does not reduce the size of the penis. It's just that a bad lifestyle risks increasing hypertension and obesity. Launching VeryWellHealth, Monday, September 16, both of them can affect penis length perceptions. It is important to know, smoking causes narrowing of blood vessels. It can even risk erectile dysfunction.

At cold environmental temperatures, the size of the penis shrinks temporarily. This is because blood vessels to the penis are narrowing. Blood vessels enlarge to more important body parts. If you live in a cold climate area, your penis can appear smaller during the winter months.

In addition to temperature, evidence shows that pollutants in the environment can change hormone levels and cause hypogonadism (low testosterone). Environmental pesticides are known as endocrine disruptors that can lower testosterone levels and erectile functions.
