Brief Answer:
it is normal during erection but in flaccid state it is less

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for writing to us. I can understand your concern.

I want to clarify about size of penis.

Normal size of penis in flaccid state is 2 to 4 inches (5 to 10 cm) while in erect position 4 to 7 inches (10 to 15 cm). It varies according to body structure and race. Size of penis does not matter much for satisfying partner.
Anterior 2-3 inches of female vaginal wall is sensitive to sexual stimuli. Only 3.5 inches of erect penis is sufficient to satisfy female. The average girth for an erect penis is 12-13cm (4.7-5.1 inches). Hope you are clear about concern of size of penis.

Considering above facts your size during erection is completely normal and during flaccid state 1 inch is not in normal limit. However if you do not have any urine problem or problem during sex , no need to worry.

Still I suggest to measure size during flaccid state again.


Hope I have answered your query, I will be happy to help further.
Regards,
Dr.Chintan Solanki.
