Apprehension about the normal size of penis is a major concern for men. Aim of the present investigation is to estimate the penile length and circumference of Indian males and to compare the results with the data from other countries. Results will help in counseling the patients worried about the penile size and seeking penis enlargement surgery. Penile length in flaccid and stretched conditions and circumference were measured in a group of 301 physically normal men. Erected length and circumference were measured for 93 subjects. Mean flaccid length was found to be 8.21 cm, mean stretched length 10.88 cm and circumference 9.14 cm. Mean erected length was found to be 13.01 cm and erected circumference was 11.46 cm. Penile dimensions are found to be correlated with anthropometric parameters. Insight into the normative data of penile size of Indian males obtained. There are significant differences in the mean penile length and circumference of Indian sample compared to the data reported from other countries. Study need to be continued with a large sample to establish a normative data applicable to the general population.
对阴茎正常大小的担忧是男性主要关注的问题。本研究的目的是估计印度男性的阴茎长度和周长，并将结果与其他国家的数据进行比较。研究结果将有助于为担心阴茎大小并寻求阴茎增大手术的患者提供咨询。对301名身体正常的男性测量了阴茎在疲软和拉伸状态下的长度以及周长。对93名受试者测量了勃起时的长度和周长。发现疲软状态下的平均长度为8.21厘米，拉伸状态下的平均长度为10.88厘米，周长为9.14厘米。勃起时的平均长度为13.01厘米，勃起时的周长为11.46厘米。发现阴茎尺寸与人体测量参数相关。获得了关于印度男性阴茎大小的规范数据的见解。与其他国家报告的数据相比，印度样本的阴茎平均长度和周长存在显著差异。需要继续进行大样本研究以建立适用于普通人群的规范数据。
