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.

It moves a little but stops when the opening gets to about a centimeter. Trying to move it further hurts a lot, so stretching it seems impossible. I've never had sex, and Im worried about how this might affect things. Is having sex possible with this condition, or am I going to need circumcision? I'm really hoping to avoid that if I can.

-It's still possible to have sex with phimosis, but it may be uncomfortable or painful. You could try gentle stretching exercises or consult a doctor about other treatment options like topical creams or non-surgical methods, which may help avoid circumcis
