I'm worried that my penis, which measures 13 cm when erect, might not be enough to satisfy my partner. This is affecting my confidence during sex. Can you tell me what the average length of an erect penis is? I'm just unsure if I fall within the normal range.

The average length of an erect penis is about 12-16 cm (4.7-6.3 inches), so your measurement is well within the normal range. Penile length is less important for sexual satisfaction than confidence, communication, and emotional connection with your partner. You are perfectly normal!

I am 23 years old. can phimosis be correctedtreated without a surgery thank you. if yesno then please elaborate.

Yes, phimosis can often be treated without surgery, especially in mild to moderate cases. Non-surgical options include steroid creams and gentle stretching techniques. In some cases, more aggressive dilations using a balloon dilator might be needed. If these methods fail or the phimosis is severe, surgery (circumcision) may be recommended.
