Most men are very concerned with penis size, and how their penis measures up to other men's.  Because of this, men have tried all sorts of ways to enlarge their penis.  Some can be harmful and can cause discomfort to them, while many others are expensive or simply ineffective.

Studies have shown that most men are interested in penis enlargement.  In fact these studies show that most men are not satisfied with their penis length or their sexual performance.  They are also dissatisfied with the firmness of the erect penis, but are unwilling to talk with their doctor about what they perceive as a problem.

Many men are convinced that their penis is not large enough to satisfy their lover.  This leads to an overall lack of confidence when making love, and this lack of confidence often leads to a softer erection, which feeds the problem by often leading to feelings of inadequacy.  This can even lead to relationship problems as these feelings take root and deepen.

Feeling that you are an unsatisfactory lover leads to a lack of desire to have sex, which the woman in your life may interpret as sexual rejection.  This can lead to further misunderstanding regarding sex and the relationship, and often leads to serious problems between couples.

The adult entertainment industry is full of ads for products and programs for the enlargement of the penis.  The products include pills, creams and sprays that claim they will cause penis growth.  These claims range from the scientific to the outrageous. Below we talk about penis enlargement methods that DO NOT WORK:

Enlargement Creams

Over the last few years, advertisements have been popping up for creams that claim that they will enlarge the penis with regular use.  Do they work?  Medical evidence has  demonstrated that no topical preparation can do more for you than to increase blood flow in the area, which may aid in other programs and may also assist in erection firmness, but these preparations can do nothing on their own to promote actual penis enlargement.

Penis Pumps

One of the most common product advertised for penis enlargement is the penis pump.  It can be seen on sale on the internet, in adult bookstores and magazines, and even in drug stores.  The pumps work by creating a vaccuum around the penis and bringing blood to the tissue.  This can assist men with extremely poor circulation to have an erection.

There is no actual medical evidence that penis  pumps cause any actual increase in the size of the penis.  Some men may even find that if they use a penis pump over a period of time that they will be unable to get an erection without using the pump.

Using Weights

Men have used this method of penis enlargement for hundreds of years.  Basically you hang weight from your penis in order to stretch it.  Many ancient and tribal people practiced this method.  Does it work?  Over time, with regular use, you can achieve greater length using this method.  The drawbacks include a thinner penis, and because of the stretched tissue, often less ability to achieve and maintain an erection.

This method can also cause decrease in blood circulation to the penis, which can lead to serious problems including tissue damage.

Enlargement Surgery

Surgery is a big step, and an expensive one.  More importantly, it can lead to serious complications like infection.  It can also lead to scar tissue formation which can cause a misshapen penis.  A common form of penis enlargement surgery involves taking your body fat and injecting a small amount into the penis.  This does not cause significant change in length, although it can make a difference in girth.

Some men have the connective tissue at the top of their penis cut, which does not actually enlarge the penis, but does cause it to jut further out from the body.  Of course, having less support, your penis will not stand up as far from your body as it did previous to the surgery.

Penis surgery doesn't change your ability to get an erection, or the firmness of that erection.  This is caused by blood flow in the penis.

Enlargement pills - 99% of these are rip-off pills which are nothing more than vitamin pills, some do work but be careful of which ones you do choose.
