Embarrassing Bodies - Penis Size

Dr Christian met up with the University of Birmingham rugby team to do some myth busting over the controversial issue of penis size. Citing a condition called small penis syndrome, Dr Christian points out that many men worry about their penis size, which can have severe affects on their life, even when their penis is often perfectly normal. In an attempt to stop some of these willy worries Dr Christian got the rugby team to measure their penises and discovered some truth in the 'shower or grower' myth. Those rugby players with a smaller penis when flaccid tended to have more of an increase in size when erect. Dr Christian finally stressed the importance of using the right sized condoms.

This new series explores the conditions and ailments that leave many of us a little red-faced and aims to de-stigmatise common complaints.
