See, testosterone plays an integral role in various processes of the body – yes, including the size of a biological male’s penis – until they are past their puberty.
Testosterone is responsible for extending the testicles below an infant’s scrotum. It’s also responsible for physical changes throughout puberty, particularly when it comes to the development of male characteristics such as a deeper voice, greater muscle and bone mass, sperm production, and yes – testicular and penile growth.
Now, on to the penis. The penis grows in girth and length during puberty, and the growth it attains ends when a biological male reaches the fullness of their adulthood.
That said, does testosterone increase penis size? YES, but only until the end of puberty. The penis stops growing once a person reaches adulthood – and taking testosterone most certainly won’t extend their penis length.
Testosterone may, however, help treat sexual dysfunctions arising from low testosterone levels, such as erectile dysfunction caused by hypogonadism.
The lowdown on penis size: What you need to know
Average penis size varies, and flaccid penis size isn’t exactly linked to the size of a fully-erect penis. Every man is different, and a good majority of men will likely fall in the average penis size range.
However, certain factors can make an adult male’s penis size smaller than normal, such as medical conditions that reduce testosterone levels during puberty, or conditions that affect them during the prenatal phase.
For instance, if the size of a fully erect penis is drastically smaller than the average by up to 2.5 standard deviations, a person may be diagnosed with a condition known as a “micropenis.”
If, for instance, a male’s hormones aren’t up to the levels they ought to be after 4 months into their mother’s pregnancy, they could be born with a micropenis. Such cases are usually treated by giving the infant topical or intravenous applications of testosterone to treat it.
Is it really possible to enlarge your penis as an adult?
The key takeaway here is this: if your penis is perfectly functional the way it is, then there’s no need to try to change it.
That is, if you can produce and maintain an erection long enough to engage in pleasurable, enjoyable sex to the point of orgasm and ejaculation, and if your libido is healthy, then the size of your penis should be the last thing on your mind.
Now, if you really want to increase your penis size, take heed: many “penis enlargement” products are, at worst, scams whose products may be harmful to your health.. At best, they won’t do anything at all.
Meanwhile, products such as vacuum penis pumps that draw blood into the penis to induce an erection, and penis implants are used to treat severe erectile dysfunction. If not used properly and under the guidance of a qualified healthcare provider, can cause serious side effects.

Other individuals opt to undergo invasive cosmetic surgery to boost penis size. Nevertheless, if you’re considering other methods to extend your penis size, consult your doctor to determine whether the risks outweigh the benefits, and if you’ll be better served by another treatment option that’s less invasive.
Still concerned about your sexual function or penis size? Seek medical advice from your healthcare provider. They will help determine what course of treatment will work best for your particular situation. They may put you through a battery of tests to determine if your testosterone levels are up to par, physical tests to determine your viability for treatment approaches, as well as get a detailed medical history to see if any other underlying medical conditions are causing your symptoms.
But then again, if your penis is perfectly functional and does everything it’s supposed to…ask yourself if you really need this. You might find that the grass isn’t always greener when you consider the investment it takes to undergo expensive, invasive surgery.
