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 25-year-old guy, and I've been feeling really self-conscious about my penis size, which is about 3 inches. I had an experience with my girlfriend where she wasn't satisfied, and it's been making me feel really guilty and embarrassed. I've heard about treatments for penis enlargement, specifically with Unani Medicines, but I'm not sure where to start. Should I be seeing a urologist or a sexologist to discuss this? I'm really curious and a bit worried about how to approach the situation.

I'm 24 and I've been masturbating for the past six years. Lately, I've noticed that the shaft of my penis isn't as soft as it used to be. There's also this numb and itchy feeling that comes with it, and its been worrying me. I stopped masturbating for a bit to see if things would get better, but I haven't noticed any changes. Should I be talking to a dermatologist or a urologist about this?
