Hello, I am 13 years old. The problem is that my penis is very thick and 11 inches long when excited. My penis is bigger than an adult's (the bulge in my pants is bigger). I am feeling ashamed for that. I also masturbate several times a day (is that normal?). How should I handle it? Are there any who have the same problem? Thank you

Well, who's the lucky guy, then? But your hormones are raging which is totally normal for you to be pleasuring yourself so frequently. However, if you have any worries, make an appointment to talk to your doctor, or even a pediatrician who is a very good choice for young teens to confide any concerns with.

Please don't be ashamed of your size. I understand how embarrassing it can be, especially as you're very young and you have a lot of worries. It's a very sensitive and awkward subject to discuss as is.
Though I can't recall if there have been others who have the same concern as you, I can certainly say there have been a few members who have visited TeenHelp with posts regarding a larger penis. So with that in mind, you're not alone!
As you're coming of age, it's quite natural to masturbate several times a day. However, I would certainly consider speaking to your doctor as they may be able to allay any concerns you have with masturbation and so on.
My father will make an appointment with the doctor for Monday. I am afraid that my penis could get bigger. I don't think I can have sex with a woman later.
It's great to hear you're going to get a doctors appointment! Please don't think that you would be unable to have sex with a female in the future. All women are different. Please don't worry yourself too much right now. Focus on seeing that doctor and make sure you be open with them about how you feel. They can definitely help you.
Also know you are only 13, your body is still growing, chances are your body will grow and it wont seem as large, when your not a teen anymore, and your an adult.
Don't pressure yourself to much when it comes to thinking you wont be able to have sex in the future, there are women out there that like that.
I fell in love the way you fall asleep. Slowly then all at once <3

As others have said I think it's really good that you've decided to see a doctor. Nobody here is a professional and so we can never say for sure if there is a problem and/or what to do about it. However I think Kayla's point is really good - when you grow the proportions will even out somewhat and it may seem less large in comparison to the rest of you.
In terms of the masturbation concerns you have, I agree that with increased hormones this can be common. Masturbation is nothing to be ashamed of and many many people do it. The main thing to consider is: is it impacting how you function in your daily life?
If the answer is yes, then it might be worthwhile trying to cut down purely so that it doesn't become something which takes over everything else. If not, and it isnt harming you or anyone else, then I see no issue with it. Your body is your body and as long as you are being safe and it is not becoming an addiction or habit which prevents you functioning normally, then there's no issue. Many other people will be doing the same thing. If it is becoming a problem, perhaps there is someone you can talk to? Maybe your doctor, or a counsellor? They may be able to offer tips and advice on how to cut down, as well as distractions. But you definitely wouldn't be the first or last to go in with either of the concerns you're having, so being alone is not a problem you should worry about at all!
Hi,
In fact, here's now a problem and it can get bigger, you're still young.
About your question, I think it's the last of your problems and it's pretty normal for me.
Definitely see a doctor (or directly an urologist) is the right choice to do. Probably is a hormonal fact, but he can say it precisely.
Keep us updated if it gets worse.
Having such a large penis is more than a curse than a blessing. I can only wear swim shorts if I wear very tight bathing trunks underneath. The worst was always the swimming lessons in the school.
I understand how uncomfortable this must be for you. I think it's good that you've managed to see a doctor. Hopefully the tests can shed some light into your issue and help determine how to move forward.
its a pretty unusual problem for sure. if you're suspecting that it is genetic then there should be others in your family with similar problems even if its not as extreme as your problem.
i hope things arent getting too much out of hand as you keep growing
I'm just wondering, but who else suffer from a similar issue here. If no one is comfortable saying if they are, no problem, but this is a problem that I have hardly heard of outside of here. A penis normally shouldn't grow over 10 inches without a hormonal issue, and looking up anything about such issues gets me little to nothing.
Look, either get it checked out or don't. I don't really know if there's any health repercussion from having an oversized penis; but if it's really bothering you then go to the doctor and discuss it with them. It might be you have elevated testosterone, and there might be medication you can take to counteract that. Good luck with whatever you decide to do.
The doctor said a penis reduction is not possible.
Did he mention why it's not possible? It's a real procedure, it's been done before. Was he worried your body wouldn't react well to it or something?
Also, as hejjhajj said, another doctor could be more willing to appoint you the surgery. It might be worth asking your parents to go searching for one, if you feel this needs to be done as soon as possible.[/size][/color][/font][/size][/color][/font]
