25 and girth concerned.

[Gobs Junior Member Find all posts View Profile Close Gobs]

Hi guys,

25 years old 6.3" NBPL and a depressing 4.2 - 4.3" MSEG.

I'm about 4"3 NBPL and 4" in girth flaccid whch means that when erect I gain a bit of length but really not that much girth at all.

I've had 3 sexual partners and none have complained. One short-termer remarked that she preferred smaller penises as they felt better after I told her I hated my size. My ex-girlfriend (3 years) had no problem with my size and regularly disagreed when I told her it was too small.

I've always known I was thin, but never realised to such an extent until the last month or so where I've been pretty much obsessing over size. I'm constantly Googling "small penis girth" "4.3" penis girth" etc etc and reading through pages and pages of results - often re-reading the same stuff over and over again and I just hate the fact that I fall below average in terms of girth. Even a .3" increase in girth would make me happy.

The weird thing is that if I stretch my penis out and measure right around the base, it's over about 5.2" which is great (I'm also careful to include the least amount of scrotum skin in that measurement that's possible.) - I just wish it were like that all around.

Since I've started this whole compulsion over my size I've also felt my EQ getting a lot weaker and I'm struggling holding an erection for a proper measurement. As soon as the fabric tape comes out I start getting soft but one thing that I have noticed is that I just seem thinner when hard than when I do flaccid. I'm even happy with my flaccid length!

The low EQ is most probably psychological but I really noticed it for the first time after about 2 weeks of 50 rep wet jelqs (2 days on 1 off.) I used a light grip but found after one session that veins were more pronounced and I just couldn't get an erection. I've heard this is a temporary occurrence for a couple of hours after a session but I think psychologically it's caused me to battle with getting a decent erection that might even add a .x" onto my girth. So I'm also a bit hesitant to start jelqing again (although I am doing kegels every day) in case the low EQ is a physical cause but I'm going to start taking some Avena Sativa supplements to help my EQ. I was using them in the past for a different reason and noticed the increased sexual drive as a byproduct.

Standing in front of a mirror I really like the look of my penis. I'm happy with the length, shape, little freckle, skin colour....Everything but the girth which is really starting to get me down and apprehensive about finding a new relationship. At least after 3 years, I was comfortable around my ex.

So that's me - sorry about the vent, but it feels good to get it off my chest. :P

Welcome to the gym


You should check out https://www.pegym.com/forums/beginne...r-routine.html and get started. Most people gain well from this beginner's routine and you could be gaining that extra girth before you know it.
Most people also get a huge boost in EQ from PE :-)


Good luck!

Thanks for the reply! I should add that I was following JP90 for a week before I started getting worried that it was causing my poor EQ. I'd do it in a hot bath, warming up with about 15 minutes of just lyng in the water and then another 5 minutes with a hot wash cloth wrapped around my penis, warming down in the same way. I know it's hard to say, but would adding .5" girth in the 3 months be plausible?

Possible, but it depends on so many factors.
There's only one way to find out!

I'm in the same boat. I've learned to accept what I have while working on it. Only thing that really worries me is condoms, but once I add some girth I should be fine. #1 thing I'd say is make sure to use proper form. Don't wanna damage your tool or not make progress. There's a video don't remember the title of the thread about proper jelqing as well as for other exercises.

Mine is opposite though that I have thinner base than elsewhere so you might want to account for that. I, and many other PE'ers don't do it for other people, we do it for ourselves our own confidence etc. That's what I feel is most important.

I've not really had any issues with condoms slipping off, they're the tiniest bit loose, but still a snug fit so I feel a bit secure in that. Don't get me wrong though, I'm also totally just doing this for myself. I just really want to have a thicker dick in my hand. :P

So an absolutely rock hard erection came out of nowhere (maybe cuz I needed to pee. :P) Seriously the hardest and longest lasting I've had in weeks. Remeasured at 6.5" length but still ~4.2"/4.3" girth. Standing in front of a mirror it looked really solid and long - just thin. Is this kind of girth pretty bad, as in really, laughably thin or should I not stress in that regard? I don't see many measurements on here (and I've gone through nearly all the girth related threads I can find! on PEGym) that are that low. Would supplements that increase the flow of blood to the penis add anything girth wise?

No, supplements won't give you any more girth or enlarge your dick. You should live healthy, and take supplements to help your overall body. Your body will thank you with rock hard erections. Here:

Start doing the JP90 for 3 months and see how that goes. Most newbies gain from doing that routine. Highly recommended!

Good luck and btw!

This is very common. Honestly, I'm not sure why, but you're far from the first guy to record this.

Sure thing, Gobs. Welcome to the gym.
