How to Measure Your Penis

If you have every wondered whether there is a correct way to measure your penis, the answer is 'Yes'. Measuring the size of your penis on a regular basis during any penis enlargement program provides immediate feedback as to your progress. The question you should be asking is 'How frequently should I pull out the tape measure and size up my member?'

Do Not Measure Too Often

If you do this too often, it can end up in discouragement, a loss of focus, and possible abandonment of your penis enhancement program. With progress to enlarge your penis being a slow and steady process, changes in penis length and girth are small over any short time period. But over the weeks and months of using penis enlargement exercises or enlargement devices, progress will be notable.

So our advice is to measure no more frequently than once every two weeks, preferably on the same day of the week. Changes to your size will be much more evident and you will feel much better about your efforts.

Use a Consistent Method to Measure Your Penis

Besides measuring penis size too often, using incorrect measuring techniques can be a problem. Measuring the penis can be a bit tricky, but using a consistent method will give you the best idea about the progress of the enlargement effort on the penis itself.

The basic rule of correct measuring is consistency. You need to put one end of the ruler in the same spot over and over again in order to see the exact amount of length and girth gained by your penis.

This is why the recommended measuring technique is the one known as “bone pressed flaccid/erect length”. The reason why it is called this is because the ruler is laid along the side of the penis and pressed a little into the pubic bone. The bone serves to provide a non-flexible fixed spot to measure from, regardless of external factors that may influence the size of the penis.

Shrink Your 'Fat Pad' for Extra Penis Length

As you already know, the penis is a sensitive mass of tissue through which a lot of blood is circulated. It shrinks when cold and it expands a little in heat. Tight pants keep it shrunk, while the morning jog is likely to engorge it as it puts the entire cardiovascular system in motion.

This is why we recommend that you measure your penis length from the pubic bone and not from the fat pad that covers it. If you prefer, you can take both measurements and put both results in your log book. This gives you an accurate measurement of how long your penis actually is and how much of it can be seen beyond the fat pad.

As you push the ruler beyond the fat pad into the pubic bone, keep in mind that this layer of fat cuts into the 'visual' penis size and makes it look smaller. What we are suggesting here is that the mere act of losing a bit of weight can enhance your efforts and turn your penis enlargement program into a smashing success.
