At your age, average penis length is
around 9-13.5 cm when soft or 12-15 cm
when hard. To measure the penis's length,
start from its radix up to the top from
the under side. You can visit your GP for
a proper measurement of penis sizes. If
your penis is under average, there is
nothing you can medically do to alter it.
