Penis enlargement, sometimes referred to as male enhancement, is a technique that involves increasing the volume, length, and firmness of the penis.
How to enlarge the penis
Procedures range from exercise to stretching devices and surgeries, with reports of success and failure from around the world. Some of these are obvious scams, while others may be successful. Often in the advertising of fraudulent products, the distinction between temporary increase, i. e. erection, and permanent increase is deliberately distorted.
Legitimate research has been done specifically on penis enlargement. where it has been shown that any statements about significant and steady growth can be attributed to discriminatory or non-systematic, unverified objective research and may be in the interests and feelings of the source. There is currently no evidence that there are non-surgical methods that continuously increase both the thickness and the length of the normal penis. A general study has been conducted on the safety and efficacy (or lack thereof) of the ingredients of various pharmaceutical and quasi-pharmaceutical preparations. but so far nothing has been found to force traditional medicine to use them. It is also inherent in some invasive procedures, the negative effects of which range from skin ruptures and scars to long-term loss of sexual function. As a result of the speculative nature of any hope of "improvement" and the many known chronic trauma cases involved in this endeavor, many professionals are skeptical and tend to avoid this area.
Much of the commercial market for penis enlargement procedures is based on unverified claims that a large rooster increases sexual ability and attractiveness in a potential mate.
Enlargement of a normal penis differs from seeking relief from the well-known medical condition of the microelenium, where surgery can be used to increase the size of the organ for urination or sexual function. Concerns about penis size can be (in extreme cases) a psychological / psychiatric condition that is best treated by qualified physicians.
Penis enlargement surgery
There are several types of surgery, all of which involve the risk of similar complications. The Second International Consultation on Sexual Dysfunction concluded that most men will not want to undergo any surgery if they are properly informed about the approximate consequences and risks of complications.
Tablets and supplements
Pills, patches, ointments for penis enlargement are usually advertised all over the internet. Many products contain harmless substances, but there are many products that have not been tested at all for safety and side effects and no product has been scientifically proven to be effective.
Natural methods of magnification
A variety of natural methods have been used in an effort to enlarge the male penis. To date, none of these have been found to be effective. Techniques include stretching, increasing with light weights and increasing blood flow and / or blood pressure to the penis. There is also a significant "overlap" between methods designed to enlarge the penis and methods designed to achieve different results, specific problems such as reversible impotence, increased erection duration, improved sexual orgasm, etc.
Penis pump
The penis pump is a cylinder located in the penis and has a manual or autonomous pump that creates a partial vacuum around the penis that increases as blood flows there. When the vacuum increases, then the pressure in the blood vessels of the penis increases. Excessive vacuum causes vascular damage.
Pumps can be used to temporarily overcome the symptoms of impotence, but they do not cure the disease itself: annular rotations must be used to keep the blood trapped inside the penis, otherwise the erection will disappear. The pumps can work even when the nerves or blood vessels are affected, which prevents natural erections, but excessive or prolonged use (for several hours) will cause long-term damage.
The pumps must be used very carefully to avoid serious injury: if they are too enthusiastic, the blood vessels may burst and blisters may appear.
Kazem, Hosseini and Alizadeh investigated the effectiveness of such pumps for permanent penis enlargement. They studied 37 men whose penis was less than 10 cm and did not notice any significant change in penis length after six months of using the pumps, although 30% of them were satisfied with the method. The conclusion of the article suggests that the treatment of the penis with a vacuum is not an effective method for its enlargement, but it provides some psychological satisfaction to some men.
The pumps have been used successfully in the treatment of men with Peyronie's disease, which causes unusual shortening and curvature of the penis. A study by the Department of Urology in London on 31 men found "clinically and statistically significant improvements in penis length, curvature angle and pain after 12 weeks of using a vacuum pump". In this study, people with Peyronie's disease were pumped twice a day for ten minutes for 12 weeks. Excess penis length, averaging 0. 5 cm, was a side effect found in about one-third of subjects and was not the focus of the study.
Clamp
Tightening is a very dangerous and dangerous method. The purpose of the clamp is to increase the length of the penis using compression devices such as shoelace, cable clamp, tight ring, which are used to restrict blood flow from the organs. The device is securely attached to the base of the penis and the man is engaged in "promotion" (extended masturbation). The metal ring is dangerous because the blood in the penis gets stuck, this may be the reason for the impossibility of subsequent removal of the ring without emergency assistance through amputation or sawing of the ring. Tightening can cause catastrophic long-term damage to the penis.
Hand exercises
Jelq
Jelqing is a method of physical therapy designed to achieve "natural penis enlargement" by increasing blood pressure and circulation. This is done by repeatedly stroking the penis with a compression motion from its base to the foreskin. special devices have been created to achieve the same result. This move is reminiscent of milking.
According to the BJUI article, the method is of ancient Arabic origin. The Arabic word for "milking" is sometimes referred to as the etymological root of the term, but this is a controversial issue and the true origin of the term becomes unclear.
Despite the unfounded statements of the proponents of the method about its effectiveness, there is no medical opinion that confirms its effectiveness. In addition, medical journalist Christopher Wanjek said that the claim that the method "would enlarge the penile cavities, which are filled with blood intended to increase erections, does not make biological sense. "
Although considered the safest of all "radical" penis enlargement methods, jelqing can cause blood vessel rupture, scarring, pain, deformity and penile desensitization.
Cosmetic methods
Instead of changing the actual size of your penis, you can make it look bigger by removing pubic hair or simply losing weight. Circumcision is also sometimes mentioned (with humor) to make the penis appear more visible, both more and less.
