Clinical Study: Men Unhappy with Penis Operations

Clinical Study of Penis Enlargement Procedures

A recent study conducted by the surgeons at St. Peter’s Andrology Center in London.

A survey questionnaire polled 45 participants who underwent penis enlargement surgery. The average gains per patient were approximately .5 of an inch. Majority of patients claimed that they were unhappy with the overall gains of the surgery. The study also found that penis enlargement was one of the most extensive operations, with expectations that cannot be met.

Results of a Penis Enlargement Surgery Survey

Doctors have also mentioned that majority of patients with psychological concerns or complexes relating to the size of the penis, may not be necessarily pleased with enlargement surgery. They have also noted that for men with average or normal size penises should not undertake surgery as it will make relatively no difference, with an average of .5 inches of gain in length.

Recommendations and Alternatives

Yoram Vardi of the Rambam Medical Center in Israel stated that more research should be conducted on non-surgical enlargement products. This would allow doctors to prescribe alternative treatments to men who may not want to undertake a pervasive surgery for a minor gain. These patients may have excessive expectations of penis enlargement surgeries, and should be directed towards to devices such as penis extenders or traction devices.

Types of Penis Extenders

The clinical study also indicated that the use of dual-system support systems may be more beneficial than enlargement surgery. Although a slower process, the penis extender can provide significant results in comparison to penis enlargement surgery.
