"Question I have a very small penis and it is causing me a lot of concern. This is the first time I have told anyone about this as I&amp;#039;m too embarrassed to see my doctor.  I have been worried about this all through my teens and have always been aware that I was small compared to other people my age.  It just hasn&amp;#039;t grown and when it isn&amp;#039;t erect you can&amp;#039;t even see it through my underwear. I also have very poor control when I urinate and my penis just doesn&amp;#039;t look right.  All these things have added up and I&amp;#039;m really worried about it.  When erect, my penis measures about 10cm, I manage to masturbate, but as soon as it&amp;#039;s over, my penis shrivels up to nothing but skin. I am nearly 20 and can&amp;#039;t imagine having sex with my penis this size. I think about it all the time and I can&amp;#039;t even go to public toilets or showers because I am so embarrassed. I know that you don&amp;#039;t advise surgery, but I don&amp;#039;t think I will ever come to terms with my penis size, particularly when I am not erect and you can barely see it.  If I opt for surgery how much would it cost and how long does it take to recover?  I also wouldn&amp;#039;t want anyone else to know about any operation. I am aware that this isn&amp;#039;t done on the NHS, but I have worries about going to a private clinic. I know it seems as if I&amp;#039;m whingeing, but it really is getting me down. Any advice you can give me apart from &amp;#039;live with it&amp;#039; would be genuinely appreciated.  Answer Sorry to hear about all this distress you&amp;#039;ve had.  If you genuinely do have a very small penis (a condition called &amp;#039;micropenis&amp;#039;), it would be possible to have enlargement surgery.  It&amp;#039;s even possible that this could be done on the NHS.  The type of surgeon you need to consult is a urologist. And to get to see him/her you&amp;#039;ll need a letter from your GP.  So, please don&amp;#039;t be embarrassed to see your doctor. Just go and see him/her, and say you&amp;#039;d like a referral note to see a urologist.  One final point, your personal details suggest you are somewhat overweight. Slimming down would be a small contribution to making your penis look more prominent.  However, what you need now is expert help: consult that urologist!
