You have to remember that they are penis of all sizes small, big, average. Its all depends of your age. Its your are 21 years old or More its almost impossible that your penis make it bigger. If you are an adolescent yet, you have chance. You can go to the doctor, maybe he can explain it better than me,

First do not believe any treatments that are not suggested by your doctor. It is very appropriate to see your doctor concerning this. Sometimes at certain ages hormones will help increase penis size. If you are grown the hormones may not help your size. Absolutely do not wast your money on what you see on the internet. None of that works. If you are grown certain surgeries may be of benefit. For all up to date information see your doctor..

Yes, it's appropriate. That's what doctors are for. While he/she may not have the answer you're hoping for, there may be a doctor someday that does.

I do believe that pills are used to sustain or obtain erections, but do not effect erect lengths. Surgical implants, however, are an option.

Yes you certainly should ask. Sorry there is no enhancment that works. They are scams. So talk to you doctor. He may have some solutions that require surgery. Think it over.
And the most improtant is the partner. What does the partner say.
So you have some serious questions here.
Just do not get anxiety attacks over this issue.

For now, best of luck to you.

There are no pills or treatments that will enlarge penis size. It is what it is.

There is a surgical procedure (don't know if it's done in the U.S.) where they can somehow elongate the penis, but it's a cosmetic procedure so insurance doesn't cover it.

One thing...if you're overweight, losing weight can make your penis appear longer because abdominal fat recedes and no longer surrounds the penis. According to Dr. Oz on Oprah, a 25-lb weight loss can make your penis appear 1" longer. This only works if you're overweight in the first place, though.

Doctors have heard EVERY possible question you could imagine! There is nothing sacred or too personal to discuss with your Doctor.

Yes, it is something you should ask your Dr. about. There are no pills that are effective for penile enlargement. Your doctor should be able to tell you what options you have.

Micropenis is a medical term that describes an unusually small penis in a human male. A common criterion is a dorsal (measured on top) penile length at least 2.5 standard deviations smaller than the mean penis size [1]. The condition is usually recognized shortly after birth. The term is most often used medically when the rest of the penis, scrotum, and perineum is well-formed, without ambiguity such as hypospadias.

Causes
Micropenis can have a variety of causes. Since it is defined statistically, a large proportion of males with micropenis are simply normal but in the lowest percentile of normal size. As for many other conditions, the term idiopathic is often used when a cause cannot be determined.

Of the abnormal conditions associated with micropenis, most are conditions of reduced prenatal androgen production or effect. Examples include abnormal testicular development (testicular dysgenesis, Klinefelter syndrome, Leydig cell hypoplasia), specific defects of testosterone or dihydrotestosterone synthesis (17,20-lyase deficiency, 5α-reductase deficiency), androgen insensitivity syndromes, inadequate pituitary stimulation (gonadotropin deficiency) or other forms of congenital hypogonadism. Micropenis can also occur as part of many genetic malformation syndromes not involving the sex chromosomes. It sometimes is a sign of congenital growth hormone deficiency or congenital hypopituitarism. Finally, several Homeobox genes have been identified which affects penis and digit size without detectable hormone abnormalities.

Pediatric endocrinologists are usually the physicians to whom these boys are referred. After evaluation to detect any of the conditions described above, micropenis can often be treated in infancy with injections of various hormones, such as human chorionic gonadotropin or testosterone.

Most eight to fourteen year old boys referred for micropenis do not have the micropenis condition. Such concerns are usually explained by one of the following:

a penis concealed in suprapubic fat (extra fat around the pubic area).
a large body and frame for which a prepubertal penis simply appears too small.
delayed puberty with every reason to expect good future growth.

[edit] Treatment
Growth of the penis both before birth and during childhood and puberty is strongly influenced by testosterone and, to a lesser degree, growth hormone, but their value in the treatment of micropenis is mainly limited to conditions of hormone deficiency such as hypopituitarism or hypogonadism. Regardless of the cause of a micropenis, if it is recognized in infancy, a brief course of testosterone (usually no more than 3 months) is often prescribed. This will usually induce a small amount of growth, confirming the likelihood of further growth at puberty, but rarely achieves normal size. No additional testosterone is given during childhood to avoid unwanted virilization and bone maturation. Testosterone treatment is resumed in adolescence only for boys with hypogonadism. Penile growth is completed at the end of puberty, similarly to the completion of height growth, and provision of extra testosterone to post-pubertal adults will produce little or no further growth.

Because hormone treatment rarely achieves average size, a number of surgical techniques like phalloplasty for penis enlargement have been devised and performed but are not generally considered successful enough to be widely adopted and are rarely performed in childhood.

In extreme cases of micropenis, there is barely any shaft, and the glans appears to sit almost on the pubic skin. From the 1960s until the late 1970s, it was not unusual for sex reassignment and surgery to be recommended. This was especially likely if evidence suggested that response to additional testosterone and pubertal testosterone would be poor. If parents accepted, the boy would be reassigned and renamed as a girl, and surgery performed to remove the testes and construct an artificial vagina. This was based on three now questioned assumptions:

gender identity and sex differences were solely a matter of social learning rather than biology.
a male with a penis too small to put into a vagina could not find a satisfactory social and sexual place in society.
a functionally acceptable vagina could be constructed surgically.
The center most known for this approach (Johns Hopkins Hospital) performed twelve such reassignments between 1960 and 1980, most notably, that of David Reimer, overseen by the now-discredited John Money. By the mid-1990s reassignment was less often offered, and all three premises had been challenged. Former subjects of such surgery, vocally dissatisfied with adult outcome, played a large part in discouraging this practice. As a result, sexual reassignment is rarely performed today for severe micropenis. Much inaccurate or exaggerated folklore on this topic is available on the internet. See History of intersex surgery for a more complete discussion of this issue.

Doctors are trained to handle every kind of medical question people can ask. If you're embarrassed to ask your family doctor, ask him to refer you to a urologist who might be better prepared to handle your question and the treatment of your problem.

to ask is legitimate, to answer is courtesy

you never know, there might be something serious you can do

as far as I know to keep it.. fit, ie to practice, gets the "spunge matter" more used to it and therefore more elastic, but that is usually just to keep it going, not to improve size, if not very active you shold see slight improvement.
