Many people are still clueless about how their reproductive part works but are afraid to ask people around. Here are some of the things that most men don’t know about their reproductive parts.
- Length of Your Penis and myths
Men on the whole planet are the most worried about their sexual performance; and most of them just dream to inspire their counterpart women with a potent, long, and capable penis.
In most cases, the discussions about the length of the penis are nothing but just exaggeration and the myths.
There is no absolute length considered as a benchmark or standard across the universe. One must know that penis with shorter lengths are even as effective as the longer penises are.
There is another conspiracy about the penis length called the foot length myth; that is also very far from reality.
The length has practically nothing to do with the sex experience or even with the reproductive functions of the male component.
Nonetheless, Healthline Media, Inc. reports that a review conducted in 2020, examining studies on penis size, indicates that the average length of an erect penis falls within the range of 5.1 to 5.5 inches. Considering the influence of volunteer bias, the researchers believe the average is closer to the lower end of that spectrum. Earlier research from 2014 estimated the average length of a flaccid penis to be 3.61 inches.
The fact, however, is true that the length of the penis can vary among the males of one area or region when compared with the men of another area or region.
- Erection of Penis during Sleep
While different phases of sleep the penis erection takes place in the male human body. It is an established fact that most of the men might not now.
The erection of the penis during sleep can sometimes be felt by the subject’s body, but most of the time it goes unnoticed.
This fact might be surprising for some people that the human body just works like a computer; during sleep, various repair and maintenance operations are performed by the brain being the nerve center and hub of all activities going on in the entire body.
The brain orders various self-tests of the vital organs? normal and special functions while running these maintenance cycles during sleep.
Erection of the penis is one of the primary functions; that also needs to be tested by the brain that it does while a man is sleeping.
The brain also undertakes the repairs of various cells and tissues received any damage during their normal functioning.
- Ejaculation is not a function of only the Penis
It is another myth that ejaculation is controlled by the penis; partially it can be true that it is performed by the penis with the help of certain other organs in the vicinity, but it is purely controlled by the brain.
The ejaculation instructions are issued by the brain through the ejaculation regulator situated in the spinal structure.
It must be astonishing to know that same happens with the erection; the erection is also ordered by the brain through the nervous network.
It is also true that the penis has very little part to do in the sexual performance except for the physical penetration, touch sensation, and associated psychological influence; rest entire sex operation is controlled by the brain.
The strong brains, therefore, have strong sexual abilities.
Psychological conditions and emotions have to play a pivotal role during all stages of the sexual activity; including the libido (desire), exhilaration, orgasm, and ejaculation.
That is why most of the sexual medicines contain steroidal ingredients, mood boosters, emotional stabilizers, etc.
- No absolute angle of an erected penis
The angle of the penis’s erection varies from person to person; depending upon the metabolic activity, blood flow, and the prompting environments.
Most of the men desire to have an obtuse angle erection; that is more than a 90-degree angle of erection in order to enjoy the utmost pleasure during the sexual activity.
The angle is clinically measured from the vertical appearance of the man while in standing position.
It is another fact that most of the men (more than 70 percent) experience to have penis erection at an angle equal to or less than 85 degrees.
According to a Medical News Today review on the study ‘Penile erections: shape, angle, and length’, penile erections can point in various directions without being considered right or wrong. So, if you’re worried about your penis being slightly curved, rest assured that it is normal. In fact, most penises have some degree of curvature, and a curve of up to 30 degrees is still considered healthy.
Only 30 percent of men in the world can maintain an angle of penis erection more than 90 degrees; out of those only 5 percent of males? penis erection angle is higher than 120 degrees.
That is another developed fact that the men on the earth are seen the most concerned about achieving the penis erection angles more than 90 degrees.
- The First and last erection of Penis
That must be amazing for many men to know that penis has a very exceptional characteristic of having an erection; this feature is not possessed by any other organ of the human body.
The other organs may have different other features like contraction, expansion, communicating, interacting, growing, or, shrinking, etc, however, the erection is the extraordinary trait that is exclusively associated with the penis only.
It must be unbelievably astounding that the penis of a newborn male baby has the capability of an erection that is signaled from his pre-developed form of the small brain.
It would be another mind-boggling reality that erection can take place even just before and soon after the death of a man.
It is a clinical fact that a terminal or final erection takes place due to anatomical phenomenon in which the extraordinary pressure is developed on the cerebellum, a part in the brain initiating, coordinating, and controlling various operations pertaining to muscular functions.

- Feet and nose size in correlation to the penis size?
As mentioned earlier, there is a persistent notion that a man’s actual penis size can be measured by the size of his feet or nose.
Such claims seem to be so persistent that curiously many studies have been conducted to see if there is any truth to these notions.
The result of such extensive studies? Really, we don’t have enough evidence about other body parts giving hints to a man’s actual penis size.
There simply isn’t enough evidence to state there is a definitive correlation between the two. And this finding includes the size of a man’s penis when in erect mode as well.
With that said, it is sufficient to say that the idea of a man’s penis size based on nose, foot or thumb sizes should be abandoned.
Yet, this may not happen overnight because people are fascinated by this idea.
- Your penis really does shrink over time
Surely you have heard about penis shrinkage and some of you may be wondering if it is an actual thing.
Well, we hate to break it down to you but penis shrinkage is very real.
First off, you may have heard cautionary tales about penis shrinkage from old people, and you bet they are saying such things because they know of the truth themselves.
Penis shrinkage does happen with age and it is usually caused by health conditions, as well as the medications needed to handle the conditions.
According to WebMD, a smaller penis size can be attributed to age-related factors such as high blood pressure or blocked blood vessels, which restrict blood flow. Decreased blood flow and lower testosterone levels can result in a smaller organ. Additionally, gaining weight can create the perception of lost length as belly fat folds partially conceal the penis, making it appear smaller than its actual size.
The main culprit of such a change in the male body is typically lifestyle and diet.
The older you get, the more plaque builds up in your arteries and your blood vessels are not as healthy anymore. All these situations combined contribute to the penis’ inability to maintain its shape, let alone an erection.
