Micro Penis Guide

definition

A micropenis (plural, micopenes or micropenises) is a rare medical condition where a penis is abnormally small.

The average stretched penile length (SPL) for an adult male is 5.25 inches (13.335 cm).

For an adult, a micropenis is an SPL of 3.67 inches or less (9.3 cm).

Micropenis is a rare condition that may affect around 1.5 in 10,000 male newborns, or 0.015 percent of male newborns in the United States, according to estimates taken between 1997 and 2000.

In some cases hormonal treatment can be used to stimulate genital growth.

Doctors usually diagnose and treat the condition at birth.
