Brief Answer:
The size will not affect the fertility.
Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXX,
Hi and Welcome.
I appreciate your concern for the size of your penis and the fertility and satisfaction issues.
1. The size of your penis will not affect the fertility. It is the normal number of active and motile sperms that are responsible for the fertility.
2. It is of quite sufficient size to have a satisfactory or pleasurable sexual act.
There is a false belief that "bigger is better" when talking about penis size and a partner's sexual satisfaction.
As a matter of fact average length of vagina is only 3 to 4 inches and its outer third is the most sensitive part (touch) because of the presence of more nerve endings as compared to the inner two thirds.
So, the size of your erected penis is sufficient enough to have a pleasurable sex.
Besides more time spent during fore play has greater impact on sexual enjoyment for females as it helps in sufficient lubrication and arousal and a satisfactory sexual act.
Hope I could answer your query.
Glad to answer, if you need to ask more.
Best regards.
