I'm 17 years old and my penis is 4.7 inches when erect. I know this is considered an average and sufficient size, but I really want to increase it for my own satisfaction. Is there any chance it might grow as I get older?

Question

How many times is normal to urinate at night?

I'm in a bit of a dilemma. I've been regularly masturbating since I was in the 10th grade, and now I'm 27 years old. Lately, I've noticed my penis seems to be getting thinner and shorter than it used to be. I'd say I masturbate about 57 times weekly on average, and I'm pretty worried about whether my penis will get back to its normal size and width. Is this something I should be concerned about?
