Non-surgical Treatment : Penis enlargement

Penis enlargement surgery is a popular choice of procedure for men who desire a larger penis. But if for whatever reason they are unable to have surgery then many of them look for alternative ways of increasing the size of their penis.

These include:

• Herbal remedies e.g. pills
• Weights which can be attached to the penis
• Hormone therapy, e.g. steroids
• Vacuum pump
• Electrical devices

The vacuum or ‘penis pump’ is a device which is attached to the penis and then pumped in and out to draw blood flow into the penis. This is effective in cases of impotency but is a short lived affair when it comes to penis enlargement. Excessive use can damage the tissues of the penis. Small weights can be attached to the penis with the aim of stretching it but this is not effective and can damage the penis.

Pills and tablets are another option but many of these are unregulated which means that they could have dangerous side effects. Again, there is no concrete evidence that these products actually work.

These alternatives to surgery are advertised widely on the internet and in various men’s magazines where they have a captive audience. They are very tempting to men who will do anything to increase the size of their penis but the results are mixed.

They all claim to give you the result you want but research has found that there is little or no evidence to support this claim. In other words, many of them don’t work.

Any other alternatives?

There are ‘self-help’options which include trimming excess pubic hair; losing weight and exercising. These can all help to create an illusion of a bigger penis as well as improving both your physical and mental wellbeing.
