I've been wondering if having a penis size of 5.5 inches is considered normal. Do you think I need to see a doctor about it?

A penis size of 5.5 inches is within the average range and generally considered normal. If you're not experiencing any discomfort or issues with sexual function, theres no need to consult a doctor. However, if you have concerns about your health or any related symptoms, its always a good idea to discuss them with a healthcare provider.

I'm a bit concerned because my father has had laser prostate treatments twice before, once in 2011 when his prostate was 50mm, and then again in 2014 when it was 60mm. Despite that, he still has issues with prostate enlargement. By August 2015, his prostate had grown to 76mm. We decided to try ayurvedic treatment, and by October 2015, it's down to 56mm. Is this kind of fluctuation normal, and should we be worried about long-term effects or stability, especially since he has gone through both laser and ayurvedic treatments? Any advice on what to keep an eye on or consider moving forward?

A urologist diagnosed me with category 1 phimosis and recommended surgery, but I've heard homeopathic treatment might work instead. Is there any non-surgical treatment available for this? I'm worried about going under the knife if there are other options.

This condition may require clinical evaluation to determine the exact cause and treatment. Some cases can be managed conservatively, while others may need surgical intervention depending on size, symptoms, and severity. Regular follow-up is important to monitor progress.
