Many doctors believe most men suffer from body dysmorphic disorder when it comes to their penises. This is a condition where a person is convinced that a certain part of their body is more defective than it really is. When it comes to penises, men often believe theirs is much smaller than it is in reality. Body dysmorphic disorder can cause a lot of psychological stress, so much so that it can impair social functioning. It also makes men more prone to believing the outrageous claims made by some of the male enhancement products available today. Here are the myths and facts about male enhancement and enlargement products to help you make the best decision for your body.
Myth #1 – You will gain 6 inches overnight or some variation of this claim. The truth is most male enhancement products will not increase the size of your flaccid penis. These products work to improve circulation and increase the amount of blood flowing to the penis. This can lead to bigger and thicker penises, but only when you are sexually aroused. There are mechanical products that can result in a longer penis. However, these take weeks of consistent use before you will see results. So yes, you can get a bigger penis, but you probably won’t gain more than 1 or 2 inches and it won’t happen overnight.
Myth #2 – All natural male enhancement products are safe to use. This is tricky one because most of the male sexual supplements are made from natural ingredients. This makes them a lot safer to use than the erectile dysfunction treatment drugs your doctor prescribes. However, they are not all safe to use all the time. Some ingredients have been found to be unsafe for human use by the Food and
Drug Administration (FDA). Some are harmful if taken in excess amounts. The key is to research the ingredients found in these products to understand the benefits and drawbacks to ingesting them.
Myth #3 – Male enhancement products will solve all of your problems. Yes, some men believe that if they can simply make their penises a little bigger, then they will win the lover they want and live happily ever after. This is self-delusion at best. It is true that male sexual aids can help you improve your sexual performance which can lead to more self-confidence. However, it cannot create a fairy-tale life for you. That is something you have to do for yourself.
