  2. Hi my name is Mohammed and I’m 27 years old. My problem is that my penis is so small at the moment but expands when I’m watching an erotic movie and when I want to have sex it also erect but not fully. It is weak. Could this be a medical problem. Please I need help as this is seriously affecting my life negatively. Thanks

    • It looks like you’re a “Grower” wherein your penis is small when flaccid, but expands significantly during erection.

      If you have a hard erection when you’re watching erotic movies, it’s normal. But, when you have sex the erection is not that hard, it looks like you don’t have enough confidence in yourself.

      Be yourself and have confidence when having sex with your partner. Don’t worry about your performance, just be yourself and if you think you’re not doing well at this time, aim to do better next. Probably, one of the reasons you’re not achieving a full erection during sex is you’re anxious, and you’re the only one who knows why.

      Probably, due to penis size, color, and thinking about how you’re going to perform. Develop that confidence and try again.
