It’s a familiar trope; a man frolics with his lover in the ocean under a moonlit sky. All is romance incarnate until it’s time to walk back onto the beach. As he emerges like Neptune, proud triton in hand, he notices he couldn’t fight a seahorse with what he’s packing since the cold water and colder night air have shrunk his schlong. Well, this isn’t the kind of penis shrinkage dealt with here. That temporary, chilly-weather inducing shrinkage is nothing to be concerned with; it’...

Penis shrinkage. Ugh, it sounds like a dirty word. Penile atrophy sounds even worse because it has a medical ring of terror around it. Both represent the same thing: it’s a condition in which the size of a penis appears to decrease (or actually does) due to a large loss of penile tissue. Penile atrophy is not permanent for all men and can sometimes be reversed or at least significantly helped. Let’s talk about what causes penile atrophy, how to fix it in the case of temporary shrinkage, a...

Penile atrophy, two words no man wants to hear together. Unfortunately, it happens. Not completely sure what penile atrophy is? Also known as penis shrinkage, it's the decrease in the length and/or girth of the penis caused by extensive loss of penile tissue. This condition can be temporary, or in more severe cases, the tissue loss may be permanent. In either case, there are several ways to either reverse it (in the case of temporary atrophy) or to compensate. Let's get up-to-date on what can...

Taking a dip in very cold water can cause almost immediate penis shrinkage. The tissues just seem designed to retract, as though the entire penis hopes to move inside of the body, where the temperature might be a bit more comfortable. As distressing as these episodes may be, they're also temporary. As soon as a man warms back up again, his full length will reappear, with no long-term side effects present. Unfortunately, there are some causes of penis shrinkage that aren't so transient. Thank...

While most men are not comfortable talking to their doctor about problems related to the penis, failure to deal with problems related to penile appearance and function can significantly impair a man’s quality of life. Issues such as penile atrophy and loss of function can affect a man’s self-esteem, as well as causing problems such as depression and anxiety.

By understanding the potential problems that may develop, men can tackle issues like these head-on, significantly improving penis...

For men who are concerned about penile performance, it seems unfair that there is one more potential problem to add to the list, but unfortunately, it’s true. As men age, there is a possibility that the penis can get smaller, not to mention a drop in sex drive and function.

Fortunately, penis shrinkage does not have to be a fact of life, nor does it have to put an end to sexual satisfaction. By taking proactive measures in terms of penis health, men may be able to reduce the likelihood t...

Throughout recorded history, penis size has been a fixation of men from all parts of the world - not surprisingly, since the penis is seen as almost a universal symbol of strength and virility. This focus on size has inspired a broad spectrum of remedies for lengthening the penis, ranging from teas made from powdered rhinocerous horn to prosthetic attachments to various exercise techniques.

In spite of these attempts to embellish what nature has provided, most worries about penis size are ...
