Many men are curious to know how their penises stand compared to the average. Unfortunately, general curiosity can sometimes give way to full-on obsession and anxiety about penis size. This can be an unhealthy and often unnecessary fixation, especially because most men who think their penises are too small have perfectly normal-sized penises.
Since the average penis size is smaller and generally less important to sexual partners than most men believe, it is likely that most men’s worries about size are unnecessary. Nevertheless, if you find that the size of your penis is causing you frequent anxiety or distress, talk to your health care provider or therapist about your concerns.
