puberty(Penis size) at 18 - January 2nd 2010, 05:43 PM

I started puberty at 13-14 (I've heard the norm is 11-12), so I'm wondering if im a late bloomer and if i am how long will my penis and testicles grow for. They seem small for my age (more in the flaccid area), and I feel they are growing slowly, for 18 my body is not developed fully and looks more like a 15 or 16 year old's to be honest, if im a couple years behind does that mean I have a few more years of growing in all areas possibly until 21? I'm 4 inches flaccid approx but the girth is small at about 3-3.5 inches, and my testicles are small according to the orchidometer and don't hang, will the girth eventually increase and will my testicles increase? I'm in stage 4 of puberty apparently and this is what is meant to happen if it is correct, so is there more chance of enlargement (I already know I wont see huge gains), Im thinking of seeing a doctor soon before its too late (its not too late im hoping considering i have only been 18 since november), any answers?

Right. I see a lot of people on this forum complaining about the length of their penis but this is the first time I see someone complaining about the width. All I have to say to you is, don't worry about it. The thing about averages is that there are always people above and below it - it doesn't have anything to do with your health or your potency.

Just also to say that while I agree with Basil, you also need to remember that people go through puberty at a range of different ages and being slightly later doesn't mean much. Don't worry, man.

You’ve got what god gave you, be proud of it. However if your testacies have no hang see a doctor because that might need to get checked out. As far as starting puberty goes yah you may have started a little late but that’s when lot of people do so I wouldn’t worry to much about that.

You ‘may’ have another year under your belt still to grow but basically what you see is what you get at this point.

Just remember be proud of what you got and learn how to use it.

Also, remember that flaccid length isn't a great indicator for erect length.

everyone starts and finishes puberty at a different age, males in particular start and finish later than females. I personally wouldn't be worried about it, if it isn't causing you any problems below the belt then just let nature take its course.

Don't worry about your penis!! I have no idea why guys worry so much. I think I would be happier with someone with a smaller penis than a huge one because I'd be scared of a huge one :P
Puberty is different for everyone, and so you may be done growing, you may not be. Only time will tell. I've actually heard that nobody really stops growing 100% until they're around 25.

Be happy

This is true. Although the average is 11 or 12 most guys start puberty between the ages of 10 and 14. So yes, you were a bit on the late side, but you were within the normal age range.

Don't worry too much about it. The size of your penis doesn't matter a whole lot. As cliche is it sounds, it's how you use it. And I've heard alot of girls here talking about how big penises are overrated anyway. So just relax, you'll be fine.

If you think it might be a medical problem though, see a doctor just to make sure.

It's possible for you to grow out a little more. Alot of guys have a small penis, and it's really not that big a deal.

Hi cageis!!

I hope you're having a dandy day!!

To be honest - I'm a little frustrated with most of the responses you got.

They are trying to comfort you and encourage you to accept your 'small penis'.

BUT TRUTH BE TOLD......

You do NOT HAVE a SMALL PENIS!!

The 'average size' for a FULLY GROWN adult's flaccid [As in 'soft'] penis is anywhere from 3" to 4.5" long. Many guys have a penis smaller than that and many have one that is bigger. But on average - most penises are somewhere in that range.

The 'average size' for a FULLY GROWN adult's flaccid [As in 'soft'] penis as far as girth is concerned is about 3.5" or so.

Do the math and you'll realize [hopefully] that - as far as SIZE is concerned....

YOUR PENIS IS PERFECTLY FINE!!

So stop worrying about it.

And be very careful when it comes to searching the Internet for 'average sizes'. MOST of the information you will find regarding size can NOT be relied upon. And many website outright LIE. [Because they are trying to sell guys some sort of potion or pills to make their penis bigger - and the more insecure they make guys feel - the more likely they will sell them something]

GREAT BIG HUG
Craig!!

You will always be self concious a little bit... Dont worry about it... If a girl complains to her friends its not big enough then she aint worth keeping around... Most girls dont kiss and tell anyways..Its only a big deal if you make it one.
