Penis hasn’t grown at all

I’m a bit concerned about the size of my penis like most other guys, my problem is a bit different though, I’m turning 18 in about a month and my penis is the same size it was when I was 11 and 12 (about 12cm), I know I’m going through puberty because I’ve got a small beard and I’ve got pubic hair but my penis hasn’t grown at all, is this normal? I’ve had growth spurts and all puberty related things, when I was 12 I was about 5’5 now I’m 5’8

Is my growth just delayed or is there something wrong with me? I thought It could be my sleep because since the age of 13 I haven’t been able to get to sleep even once before 1 am and I have a lot of trouble going to sleep and waking up at a good time, but I was researching online and it said that my sleep shouldn’t effect it much

does anyone know what’s going on with me? I know I could go to a doctor but I’m a bit nervous to do that and I’d have to tell my parents which I don’t really want to do

Read all the comments from another post that asks basically the same thing. I noticed from your profile that you just signed up today. This isn't some sort of sick joke I hope.

I haven’t found any other posts talking about this, only reason my account is so new is because I was googling it all day and this forum came up and took me here and I couldn’t make a post without making an account

Hello Mate,

We are all different sizes and shapes, wouldn’t worry, sounds like you may be a late developer.

I would say pluck up the courage to see your family doctor, or have a chat to your parent(s) first. Your dad would I’m sure put your mind at rest. honest no need to be shy or embarrassed.

Hi. Not sure do you mean erect or flaccid either seems acceptable to me?

Too much of what we think is normal comes from from porn … which is not normal! Read this article below, average erect penis size is 13.12cm. Also agree you should talk to your father and/or doctor. But fyi if you are much bigger than average, a lot of women don’t want you pushing the whole way in as it hurts. Stay body positive!

12cm is 4.7 inch’s and you’re only turning 18 , puberty goes on to at least 21 so you still have some growing time even though what you have now is in the normal range so don’t worry.

Most of the time. It is really s matter of genetics. So you have to think about what most of the males look like on both sides of the family (maternal and paternal). Since you have grown in height then it is not a question of low testosterone levels during puberty . A regular gp really cant do anything about

You could be a late bloomer. I know it is disappointing but you body is growing. Human bodies work the most mysterious ways and each is different from others. I have a friend whose puberty ended at the age of 22.

You only slightly below average and are still quite young so you may grow some.

Don't worry about it, that won't help. Make good use of what you got !

I think it's quite likely that you developed your penis size early and that it isn't necessarily going to grow any more. It's not a micro-penis, but maybe a little below average. Assuming you are wanting relationships with women, I think you'll find they are much less concerned with size than you are. Some gay men are known as 'Size Queens', so it may be different if you want to have sex with men. I have fathered 2 children with a penis not much bigger than yours and my wife enjoyed sex much more with what I did with my hands and fingers than with my penis. Women often need a lot of clitoral stimulation to orgasm and penetration isn't always the best part for them. My wife did enjoy penetration but because she's loving and unselfish enjoyed it more because of the pleasure I got from it and for when we wanted to conceive. The warmth of the relationship is much more important than the physical sex. I've been happily married for over 50 years and worked as a relationship Counsellor.
