Hello. I Have Noticed My Penis Has Got Thinner And

default
Posted on Fri, 30 Oct 2020
Question: Hello. I have noticed my penis has got thinner and smaller is this something to be worried about? I am under quite a bit of stress at the moment and wonder if this is causing it. Its lost its girth. I've only had sex once in the last year because i've been going through a divorce and just been to stressed with this. Is there anything I can do? Why is this happening? It is causing me to feel not like a man, I am 38 years of age. My diet could be better at the moment, I'm drinking coffee a lot, other than that i try to keep fit regularly, any suggestions? I am not feeling confident because of this problem, the more I think about it the smaller it looks! My anxiety is high at the moment and I am trying to get into dating and being intimate again with another woman is making me anxious, which isn't helping me when i am feeling nervous about the size of my penis.

Brief Answer:
It could be due to Anxiety and nothing else.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for the query.
You have been stressed and feel your penis getting thinner and smaller for the last one year.

At the outset, I would like to state that Penis is not a muscular organ but it contains two corporal bodies which are mesh or network of blood vessels hence it never gets thinner or smaller at this age. It is anxiety that is bothering you.

There is nothing to be worried about neither no treatment is required. It will get resolved once your psychological issues get sorted out.

You may consult a Psychiatrist for counseling sessions.

Hope I have answered your query, please feel free to ask if you have more questions,I shall be happy to help you.

Thanks and Regards.
Dr.Patil.
