How to Measure Your Penis

Flaccid gains in your penis are likely to be some of the first results you notice from any penis enlargement guide – this one included. However the flaccid length can be influenced by many environmental factors (such as room temperature), and as such it is important to maintain a standardized method and conditions when measuring in order to maintain accurate results. In order to gain an accurate measurement of your flaccid penis length, stand in an upright and extend it in front of you, until it is a horizontal position. Once your penis is horizontal to the floor, place a ruler to the side of your penis, and pressing back slightly on your pubic bone, take an accurate measurement in millimeters to the tip of your penis head. Throughout this procedure it is also important to note that your penis should be fully erect, and should be held by one hand throughout the measurement just below the head.

In order to measure the erect length of your penis, it is again best to follow a standardized method throughout. This method is the standardized method that is used by researchers across the globe to measure the “average penis size” (which is 6″ – 6.5″ erect).

Firstly make sure you have a 100% erection where you would consider it the “most erect”. Hold your penis below the head and place the ruler next to it with your other hand. The ruler should be slightly pressing against your pubic bone. Measure to the nearest millimeters and it is important that you do not EXAGGERATE the measurement, if anything it is recommended that you under exaggerate. Exaggeration on the measurement could lead to a lack of motivation in the future.

The girth can be extremely awkward to measure because many people have different size girth measurements depending on which part of the penis that you measure. The standardized way is to measure in the centre of the penis shaft. When flaccid hold your penis out in front of you and wrap a tape measure around your penis. Do not pull the tape measure too hard, pull it to a reasonable level and remember this LEVEL of pull for the next time you measure.

Make sure your penis is 100% erect and then proceed with the measuring. Hold your penis out in front of you so it is parallel with the floor. With your other hand place the tape measure around the penis making sure not to pull too tight. The average erect girth is 5″ – 5.5″ according to recent surveys conducted.

I would recommend that you consider other penis enlargement methods to maximize your results.
