What Causes Penis To Shrink During The Course Of Erection?

My penis erects perfectly finally but during the erection middle part of the penis erects late, I mean it shrinks as if a ring is placed in the middle and rest of the penis erect perfectly and eventually this unerected part erects finally within a little while and then penis looks normal erected penis. And one more thing my penis used be 5 and half inches but it is now 4 an half inches.

Hi,

It may be due to phimosis.

If the symptoms are recent, then we can think of medical management.

If it’s a long term issue then we need to plan the surgery.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
