After erection if PENIS size is more than 4 inches then it is not a cause of concern however you may show him to a endocrinologist who will examine him to see the size of testes and other endocrine (hormone functions) by performing blood tests.
Hormonal therapy is indicated only if some endocrine abnormality is seen and if that is the case then it may help your son
Hope this answers your question
