Dear Dr. Flex, I am a 19-year-old male with an abnormally big penis. My friends who know about my problem call me names like elephant d#*k and anaconda because of my irregular sized penis. When it is dead and soft, it measures 5inches long and when erect it is 10 inches. It also makes me walk a bit awkward, as I am a very slim person. Is there any way to make my penis smaller so it is just average? F.P., Kingston 5
Dear F.P.,
There is nothing from what you wrote that would indicate that you should have to do anything about your penis size. A 10-inch erect penis is somewhat above average, but there is no reason you should want to change your body. It is a shame that your friends would make you feel uncomfortable about yourself. Maybe you could let them know the name-calling bothers you and ask them to quit it. If they truly are your friends they will stop teasing you. As for the awkwardness you experience when walking, you could wear a jack strap that would help a lot. There are medical procedures that can make the penis appear to be smaller, but in fact some men later complain of impotency.
