It seems that nearly every guy you meet on the street would claim that they want a bigger 'manhood' if asked. This desire is so common that countless supplements and products are advertised with bold promises to increase penis size. However, many of the herbs used in these 'miracle pills' haven't been scientifically proven. To clear up any confusion, we will address some of the most frequently asked questions by men regarding the use of supplements and herbal products to increase penis size.
Steps
What is the normal size of a penis?

A penis that is 13 cm or more when erect is considered normal. Many men feel self-conscious about the size of their 'manhood', but in reality, most penises are of normal size. Research has shown that many men who believe their size is 'small' actually have a perfectly normal penis. A penis is considered abnormally small only if it measures less than 7.5 cm when erect.
- Part of the problem is that many men have exaggerated notions about penis size. Additionally, many advertisements have led people to believe that their partners are very concerned with its size. If you really have doubts about this, try talking to your partner.
Do penis enlargement pills work?

No, there is no pill that has been proven to be effective, and in fact, many of them can be harmful. Various pills and supplements claim to improve sexual performance and increase penis size. In reality, these products only contain vitamins, minerals, herbs, or hormones, none of which have scientific evidence to support their claims. Some products may even contain harmful ingredients, especially if you have underlying health conditions like heart disease or diabetes.
- For example, penis enlargement pills that contain stimulants may raise heart rate and blood pressure, which is dangerous for individuals with heart disease.
- Additionally, many supplements do not require approval or certification from health authorities, meaning that some ingredients may not be listed on the product label.
Do penis enlargement creams work?

No, there is no evidence to suggest that creams can increase penis size. Just like penis enlargement pills that lack scientific backing, there is no cream or lotion that can genuinely enlarge the penis. Some products are harmless, but those of unknown origin may be contaminated with toxic substances such as lead, pesticides, or animal waste.
- Applying lotions and creams to the penis may make you feel more comfortable and familiar with your 'manhood,' but they won't make it any bigger.
Can hawthorn berries (Crataegus) help increase penis size?

Hawthorn berries are known to help treat cardiovascular diseases but may not assist in increasing penis size. Some studies suggest that hawthorn extract is effective in treating and managing heart conditions. Occasionally, hawthorn extract is included in various medications and products advertised to improve sexual performance and libido, yet it does not contribute to penis enlargement.
Does catuaba bark extract contribute to penis enlargement?

This product may boost your energy levels but is unlikely to aid in penis enlargement. Catuaba bark is derived from a tree found in Brazil's tropical rainforests and acts as a natural stimulant similar to caffeine. Catuaba supplements can serve as a healthy alternative to coffee if you're looking for a bit more energy. While it is often included in supplements marketed for sexual health, catuaba bark does not seem to assist in increasing penis size.
- The energy boost provided by catuaba bark extract may enhance libido and endurance, but it will not likely make the penis larger.
Can Tongkat Ali (Eurycoma longifolia) help increase penis size?

Tongkat Ali may assist in treating erectile dysfunction but is not likely to increase penis size. This Southeast Asian plant is commonly marketed as an aphrodisiac, with some scientific evidence suggesting it can boost testosterone levels and help with erectile issues. It is often found in supplements claiming to enhance sexual function. However, it may not actually result in a larger penis.
- Studies suggest that Tongkat Ali can improve sperm quality and naturally boost energy levels.
Can DHEA help increase penis size?

DHEA may aid in treating erectile dysfunction, but it also carries other health risks. Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) is a naturally occurring hormone produced by the body that tends to decrease in some men around their 30s. DHEA is commonly found in supplements marketed to increase testosterone levels. While it can improve blood flow, potentially helping with erectile dysfunction, there is insufficient evidence to suggest it boosts libido or testosterone levels, and it likely does not lead to penis enlargement.
- Furthermore, DHEA may cause rapid heartbeats and negatively affect cholesterol levels. If you have any underlying health conditions, consult with a doctor before trying DHEA supplements.
Is it possible to increase penis size with olive oil?

Probably not, but it may help boost testosterone levels. Studies have shown that consuming olive oil can naturally increase the body's production of testosterone. Higher testosterone levels may enhance libido and sexual function, but it likely will not directly result in penis enlargement.
- A healthy diet can also support natural testosterone production.
- Healthy oils are also beneficial for heart health.
Which penis enlargement products are actually effective?

Studies show that penis enlargement devices can be effective. Also known as penis traction devices, these tools may help extend your penis. Some research indicates that with consistent use, these devices can potentially increase penis size by about 5 cm over time. Before using such a device, it’s important to consult with a doctor to ensure its safety for you. A doctor may recommend a specific product and provide guidance on safe usage.
- Typically, you will need to wear the device for up to 6 hours daily for several months to see noticeable results.
Advice
- If you're overweight or have a bit of belly fat, losing weight through a healthy diet and regular exercise may help make your penis appear larger and enhance sexual function.
Warning
- Consult with a doctor before taking any herbs or supplements aimed at enlarging your penis. Some products can be harmful, especially if you have underlying conditions such as heart disease or diabetes.
- Do not take any supplements that do not list their ingredients on the packaging.
