Of particular concern for some men is whether their penis will be satisfying sexually for themselves and their partner. Some men may also be anxious about how they look naked. When it comes to sexual intercourse , bigger may not always be better. In a study in the journal PLOS One , researchers interviewed 75 sexually active women about the size of penis they would prefer for a one-night stand and for a long-term relationship.
The women were shown 33 different-sized 3-D penis models made out of blue plastic so as not to suggest a particular race. The average size preferred by the women in the study was an erect penis that is 6. For a long-term relationship, the average size preferred by the women was a penis that is 6. Men who are self-conscious about the size of their penis, either in its flaccid or erect state, may experience anxiety-induced erectile dysfunction and other emotional problems.

Your manhood is attached to your abdominal wall, so as your belly expands, it appears to pull the penis inward. The firmer the erection, the bigger your member. If you have ED, see your GP without delay. Certain types of prescription drugs can cause your penis to appear smaller than it actually is.
Finasteride, which is used to treat hair loss and enlarged prostate in men, reduces your T-levels and can alter the structure of erectile tissue. Additionally, prostate surgery and prostate cancer treatment is also associated with penile shortening.

Professor Wylie's report also found differences between what women and men think. According to Professor Wylie, the issue of attractiveness to women is complex. However, most studies suggest that penis size is much lower down the list of priorities for women than such issues as a man's personality and grooming. Professor Wylie says: "It may come as a surprise to some young men, but most women have very little interest in the size of their penis and that's been shown in numerous studies over time.
He says research shows that when it comes to sex, women are much more interested in whether you are romantic, tender and sensitive to their needs and desires than your penis size. Counselling has proven to be beneficial for men with penis anxiety.
