Measuring penis size typically involves measuring both length and girth (circumference). Here's a breakdown of how to do it accurately:
Measuring Length
- Erection Required: The most accurate measurement of length is taken when the penis is fully erect.
- Top Side Measurement: Place a ruler or measuring tape along the top of the penis, starting at the base where it meets the pubic bone. Press the ruler firmly into the pubic bone, pushing back any fat pad.
- Tip to Base: Measure from the base to the tip of the glans (the head of the penis).
Measuring Girth (Circumference)
- Erection Required: Similar to length, girth is best measured when fully erect.
- Midpoint Location: Identify the midpoint of the shaft (halfway between the base and the tip).
- Wrapping: Wrap a flexible measuring tape around the shaft at the midpoint. Ensure the tape is snug but not constricting.
- Record Measurement: Note the circumference in inches or centimeters.
Important Considerations
- Consistency: Take measurements at the same time of day and under similar conditions for consistent results.
- Relaxation: Ensure you are relaxed during the measurement process. Anxiety can affect erection quality.
- Privacy: Understand this is a private activity.
- Professional Help: If you have concerns about your size, consult a doctor or urologist for professional guidance and measurements.
