There is so much misinformation on the subject of penis size. But when you look through over 40 studies on the subject you can really tell what numbers are real.
Penis length:
approximate global average erect
13.71 cm = 5.4 inches
penis girth (width/circumference):
approximate global average erect
11.55 cm = 4.54 inches
There is a difference between different ethnicities
Average penis size
These averages are subject to change as new data becomes available and as old data is revised.
When it comes to ethnicity - penis sizes vary. They do not vary enough to say that for example "all black men have larger penis than white men", because clearly this isn't true. However when it comes to averages in length and girth there are statistical differences.
We've found 42 studies in the last 100 years that looked into the penis sizes. We have analyzed them to find averages of erect penis length and girth. We are not only interested in the averages but also in the standard deviation of sizes, which is the range of penis size of male populations. We have prioritized the studies in the following order:
Professional Research
1
Studies where the measuring was conducted by trained professionals, hospital and clinic staff (including commercial studies such as the Ansell Condoms (Manufacturer of Lifestyles/Mates condoms).
Custom Condom Web Stores
2
Studies where the measuring was conducted by self report, motivated by condoms they were ordering that matched their sizes
Self-Report Studies
3
Self-report studies. Where people supplied their own measurements.
Studies With Questionable Methodology

Penis Enlargement
Men are often mislead about penis enlargement. Spam emails and ads tell us that penis enlargement is easy, that it could even be accomplished through use of pills.
Much of what ads state is incorrect.
We aim to break down penis enlargement with science. Some methods may actually work.
Scientific evidence shows that penis enlargement is possible through use of penis pumps
Penis pumps
Using penis pumps is a popular treatment for erectile dysfunction. It was originally developed exclusively for ED but studies have shown that a side effect of the treatment is penis enlargement through regular use.
We don't want to sell penis enlargement pills and we don't want to mislead our visitors about the issues relating to penis size. Support us anonymously to help maintain the website, to pay for hosting and maintenance!
