Hello,

Thanks for your query.

Masturbation does not have any effect on penile size or sexual function. A flaccid penis may appear shrunken especially in colder conditions.

You need not worry about the length of your penis in terms of partner satisfaction if it is more than 2.5 cm in length. This length is enough to provide partner satisfaction during intercourse.

I hope I have answered your query. I will be happy to answer any further queries that you may have.

Wishing you good health.

Thanks
