Not possible

Detailed Answer:
Hello

Thanks for the query

It is not possible for the penis to shrink once it has already grown so please stop worrying about it. You will definitely get an erection once you are aroused. If you are facing problems with erection I advise you meet a urologist to find out if any nerves supplying to penis has got damaged.
I recommend that you meet a general surgeon for now for a local examination.

I hope I was of help

I do not have a problem getting an erection, but they are not as strong and I cannot maintain them as well. I believe my flaccid length has decreased as well.

Excessive masturbation is the most common cause for soft erections, the other common reasons are thyroif dysfunction, anxiety, smoking, intoxication with drugs and alcohol, some prescription drugs like beta blockers are also known to cause soft erections. Please meet a urologist for a local examination and treatment.

The length of the penis is decided genetically, once it has grown to a certain size it cannot decrease in size so please do not worry about it. I am sure it can be sorted out and treated. Approach a urologist
