Surveys find that nearly half of men are dissatisfied with their penis size and wish they were larger. So let’s dive into the world of penile augmentation. In this episode, we’re going to talk about the various treatments that exist, which ones are supported by the science, the potential risks and side effects, and what you really need to know if you have penis size concerns.

I’m joined by Dr. Joshua Gonzalez, a board-certified urologist who is fellowship-trained in Sexual Medicine. He is a Sexual Health Advisor to Astroglide Lubricants, and one of the co-founders of the sexual wellness brand Popstar, which creates science-backed products to support male sexual health and pleasure.

Some of the specific topics we explore include:

What is the average penis size anyway?
Can stretching make your penis bigger?
Do penis pumps work to increase size?
Are surgeries to enhance penis size worth the risks?
Are there any pills or medications that can make your penis larger?

You can visit Joshua’s website to learn more about his work.
