I've noticed that my penis is 4.5 inches when erect with a girth of 4 inches, and Im wondering if theres anything I can do to make it longer and bigger. I've seen pills being sold both in markets and online, and I'm curious if any of them actually work. If they do, could you recommend one? I'm also exploring if there are specific exercises or yoga that could improve blood flow to the penis. Also, if I increase my testosterone levels by using ashwagandha, will that have any effect on penis growth? I'm really looking for advice on this, so any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

The size you mentioned is within the average range, and most pills or products claiming to increase size are not effective or safe. Focus on improving blood flow through Kegel exercises, pelvic stretches, and a healthy lifestyle. Ashwagandha may boost testosterone but won't directly impact penile growth.
