What is the average penis length is a question that often men ask themselves in order to know if they have or not to worry about their sizes. The penis length is measured from the tip to the base. The male penis length can be situated somewhere between 3 to 4 inches when in a non-erect state. During an erection, the penis usually enlarges to up to 7 inches.

In the flaccid state, an average penis size is about 3.75 inches. This type of measurement is however not so valuable since different factors may cause the shrinkage of the penis in the flaccid state. The best example is the cold. Every man can notice an up to two inches shrinkage whenever the temperature is too low. This is in fact a reaction to cold. On the other hand, the penis length size tends to be much more different from men to men when the measure is made in the flaccid state while sizes during an erection tend to be more similar. An average size during an erection is about 6.5 inches. Erection may increase penis length by 100% in the case of a rather small non-erect penis and up to 75% in the case of an above average non-erect penis.

A male penis length is not related in any way with the race or the physical constitution of the individual. There are many tall men with a penis length size below the average and the other way around. Recent studies have proved that the size does not really matter during intercourse but having a bigger penis was always associated with a higher self-esteem.

Usually penis size is not really a matter, unless the penis is really too small or too big (or if it is a curved penis). A too small penis is one whose length does not exceed 2.75 inches. Though, there are ways to increase penis length, including surgery.
However, many men are tempted to believe that they have too small penises and the medical condition describing this situation is called the small-penis syndrome. This is actually the anxiety experienced by some men who think their penis is too small even in reality it is not. On the other hand, the penis size also matters when the penis is too big. A woman’s vagina is normally 3 inches long when she is not aroused and the length increases with 1 inch after arousal. But still, if a man has a bigger penis, longer than 4 inches can still introduce it, gradually into the vagina and will cause this to lengthen. The vagina is able to elongate with up to 200% in order to accommodate the man’s bigger penis. However, a penis longer than 7.5-8 inches is considered a large penis. A man with such a size may encounter problems during intercourse. It is also believed that men with larger penises are not able to maintain an erection as long as men with small or average penises.

No matter the average penis length, individuals are tempted to believe that they are somewhere closer to an extremity than the average even when this is not completely true.
