Is The Smaller Penis Size Be Due To Pituitary Gland?

My mom told me when i was younger my penis was growing smaller, and im now 17 and it hasnt seemed to grow any. Im about 250 pounds, and my penis is about 2 inches flacid, and 4.5 erect. Is it something to do with my pituiritary gland? If so, how would i go about fixing it?

Hello
Thanks for query .

You have feeling of your penis being smaller than what you think it to be ..
Looking at your weight for your age it is likely that you have more fat deposited at the base of penis making your penis to be small .

The length of the penis of 2 inches in fklaccid state and 4.4 inches on erection is considered to be normal for your age .

Please note that you have no problem of Pituitary whats so ever .

As such length of the penis in flaccid state has no significance at all .It is hardness of the penis on erection that is important foe sexual satisfaction of both the partners .

You do not need any treatment ,However you need to reduce your weight .

Consult qualified Dietitian for advice regarding wight reduction .
