I'm really concerned about the size of my penis and I'm hoping for some advice on how to increase it. Right now, when it's hard, it's about 5 inches, but I wish it were a bit larger. Can you offer any suggestions on this?

It's completely normal to have concerns about body image, but it's important to understand that size and thickness are often less significant than factors like intimacy, trust, and communication in relationships. There are no proven medications or treatments for increasing penis thickness. If you're still concerned, I recommend speaking to a urologist for personalized advice and support.
