Learn how to measure your penis size correctly
Knowing your penis size is important for men. With the correct measurements in hand, it is possible to be proud of your large size, be relieved to know that you are average or even want to look for solutions to increase the penis, if the measurements are not satisfactory.
However, there are many variables in measurement and you need to consider all of them. Therefore, to be sure about the real size of the penis, it is necessary to know how to measure correctly. Also, knowing how to measure will help you find the right condom for you, as there are different sizes of condoms.
But before you learn to measure, don't stress about this size issue. Penis size is by no means a defining characteristic of the human being, nor is it even relevant to a partner's sexual satisfaction.
What you will need for the measurement:
- A comfortable private environment;
- An erection;
- A flexible measuring tape or sewing tape;
- Or a piece of string and a ruler.
How to measure penis length?
- First, make sure you get a maximum erect penis. If you have a curved penis, no problem. Use a flexible measuring tape or string and follow the procedure;
- The length of the penis is measured from the base (where the penis meets the groin) to the end of the glans;
- Press the measuring attachment on the pubic bone to compensate for the fat layer and pubic hair;
- The angle at which you measure will impact the measurements. Therefore, press the measuring accessory perpendicularly into the crotch so that it is at an angle of about 90 degrees.
*If you are going to use the string, mark the beginning and end of the size on the string and see the result with the help of the ruler.
How to measure the circumference of the penis?
- With the penis erect, wrap the flexible tape or string over the widest part of the penis, usually in the middle of the cup. But if the glans is wider than the body, measure separately. This is important because some condoms have a flared shape at the top, with more space at the end;
- When measuring the circumference of the penis, do not tighten the tape or string as this will give a smaller result.
That's it, now you know how to take the measurements of the penis correctly and you won't miss your size anymore.
