Does Vasoconstriction From Adderall Slow Growth Of Penis?

Posted on Fri, 19 Dec 2014

Question: Shoot it to me straight , does vasoconstriction from adderall slow growth of penis . I know it hasn't been proven but what is your opinion if taken thru puberty would it cause the penis to be smaller? Took it ages 13-15.. also at age 16 almost 17 I took one shot of testosterone enanthanate 250-500mg would that shot have affected my penis growth negatively because of it shutting down natural production once it wore off? Be straight with me how long would it have taken for the shot to wear off and natural testosterone to kick back in please respond only with an accurate truthful answer. Did this shot stunt bone growth ? Please shoot me straight.

Brief Answer:
Both won't affect Penis size.

Detailed Answer:
HI XXXXXXX

Thanks for posting your query.

Myself Dr.Divakara.P answering your query.

First I will talk about Testosterone. Testosterone when taken in case of deficiency will help in improving secondary sexual characters like Penile size, hair growth, muscle growth but in case there is no deficiency one shot of Testosterone will not have any bad effects, neither on your Penis nor on your bones.

Testosterone Enanthanate will get eliminated from the body in 30-45 days so that there is no long lasting effects unless repeatedly taken. So don't worry about your One time Testosterone shot.

Coming to adderall, yes it can cause Vasocontriction but any effect on Penis size is not mentioned and even I don't think it is possible. It can cause Impotence and erectile dysfunction on continued use but no effects on the penis size.

I know this might have been told to you many times but still I will tell you. Many men have a wrong perception about the size of penis. A small sized penis is very rarely seen. Most men will have average size and they still feel that their size is small. My advise is get this Penis size thing out of your mind. Hope I have not offended you.

Any further clarifications feel free to ask.

Always happy to be of some assistance to you.

Regards.

One last thing when adderall causes vasoconstriction constriction what parts of the body is the blood flow reduced in ? It wouldn't affect the growth of the body? And can adderall lower testosterone ?

Answered by Dr. Divakara (4 hours later)

Brief Answer:
No direct effect on growth.

Detailed Answer:
HI XXXXXXX

Adderall causes Vasoconstriction on all the parts of the body but with continued use this effects decreases or it becomes less pronounced.

Most of the adverse effects of adderall has not been attributed to it's vasoconstricting property. So it doesn't affect growth , but indirectly it can affect growth by suppressing the appetite which may lead to malnutrition.

It doesn't lower testosterone but decreases Libido and may cause Impotence.

Hope this answers your query.

Any clarification feel free to ask . If none kindly close the discussion and rate my answer.

So to sum it all up , the maximum genetic potential size of my penis will not be negatively affected from the testosterone shot because of hormone imbalance? The final penis size will be as big as it's suppose to be and it will be the same as if I didn't take the injection? And full recovery of my testosterone will happen and my puberty will continue with normal testosterone levels? And the testosterone shot will not fuse growth plates or stint bone growth ? To let you know I didn't have a deficiency I was going to use for football but stopped after one cause I didn't want any side effects . A honest response to all the questions is what I desire .. Thanks I will close and review after your response hope you understood all of my questions..

Brief Answer:
YES....

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX

You have just summarized what I have told you in my past replies .

The answer to all your questions is yes (assuming it was just one testosterone Shot ). No relation between your testosterone shot ( one time ) to your penis size or any effect on the growth or any interference with normal testosterone production .

Take care of your health and never self medicate .
