Obese boys face a significant decrease in penis length, study finds | UroChannel

Obese boys face a significant risk to developing a smaller penis than normal weight boys. In this video on UroChannel, Dr. med. Dr. phil. Stefan Buntrock, a urologist from Göttingen, points to a cross-sectional study of 1,130 Italian boys aged 0-20, which found that obese boys' penises were around 11% shorter than normal-weight boys' at the end of puberty. The study also found that obese boys entered puberty later and progressed through puberty more rapidly than normal-weight boys as a result of reduced testosterone levels. It is important to keep in mind that the penis will not grow after puberty. In conclusion, preventing childhood obesity may allow the penis to grow to its full genetic potential and lead to longer penises. These findings contradict the results of a recent study, published by Stanford university, showing a trend to increased penis size across the globe. During the same time interval, the obesity pandemic really began. In the light of the findings of the study at hand, one would have expected a decrease in penile length in the developed countries, where obesity trends are at the highest.
