Erection in older children is a normal physiological condition. There should be no reason to panic. They talk to the boy, talking about all the intricacies of growing up. It is not recommended for mothers to discuss intimate topics with their son. This leads to awkwardness on both sides and to the development of psychological trauma in the child. Early signs of agitation are not associated with puberty, their appearance may be the norm or the result of developed pathologies.
The first signs of puberty
Not all parents, especially mothers, know the age at which the penis rises in boys. The process usually starts at the age of 11-12, but there are small deviations.
The first thing a teenager notices is an enlarged penis.
Then join:
- uncontrolled erection;
- night broadcasts;
- sexual attraction to girls;
- erotic dreams and other signs.
Maturity lasts about 5 years. Testosterone, the male hormone, enters the bloodstream, causing a change in a teenager's character and appearance. The change in behavior is not surprising. Hormonal changes often make a young man aggressive and hot-tempered.
The final formation of the reproductive system occurs at the age of 18, although many boys have their first sexual intercourse much earlier. On average, this happens at the age of 13-16.
Teenage erections lead to the desire to experience the first pleasure in life, so most teenagers masturbate.
Catching a child in an indecent activity, parents are confused - read morals, ridicule the child. You cannot do this, you can destroy the relationship and cause serious damage to the human psyche.
How does a young man change?
Mothers and fathers often wonder why the child's behavior is changing and often not for the better. The man makes scandals, runs away from home, shuts himself in.
The parents suspect their son of drug use, connections with bad company. Regular questioning does not lead to good relations and makes the growing child even angrier.
You can recognize hair growth by:
- on the chest and face;
- armpits;
- in the genital area.
During the period of hormonal correction, the voice becomes rougher and the genitals grow.
Naturally, the boy will not show his mother's penis, older men will be able to notice such changes.
As they grow, sperm begin to build up in the testicles. It can already lead to conception. Before this opportunity arises, the boy must be aware of the intimate nuances and consequences of unwanted pregnancy.
An older man, preferably a father, should inform the young man. If this is not possible, the person studies the information himself - in books, magazines, the Internet.
You have to be careful with the latter. A growing person will definitely want to watch an intimate video. The plots of the photos are different. By focusing on a specific video, one can radically change one's views on adult life.
involuntary ejaculation
Erection in adolescents is often accompanied by erotic dreams. Sufficient sperm accumulates in the testicles, it comes out. The first wet sleep scares the boys. They are afraid of criticism from their parents, they feel guilty about the soiled sheet.
The parents noticed that the son took off the bed linen himself and loaded it into the washing machine. Neither the mother nor the father should ask unnecessary questions, putting the person in an awkward position. If an intimate topic has not yet been opened, it is time for the father to take some time to explain the situation. It is important to know how old the boys are so that you do not miss important changes.
Young men often do not remember their dreams and do not understand why ejaculation occurred. Some consider it pathological.
Nocturnal emissions in boys are a normal physiological condition in which sexual tension is relieved. Excess accumulated semen leads to discomfort. While the man is not yet sexually active, the body empties the testicles on its own.
This happens in adulthood, but unlike a teenager, the adult understands what is happening to him and does not feel uncomfortable.
This is done with:
- the appearance of guilt in a teenager;
- psychological discomfort;
- loss of prestige;
- hostile relations.
The young man will certainly appreciate the lack of interest in the appearance of erections and involuntary ejaculation.
Tips for moms and dads
You have to come to terms with the fact that you have grown up. This is a natural process that had to begin. In this difficult period, one must be tactful and friendly, because one wrong word can ruin the relationship with the blood for a long time.
Mothers and fathers should not judge their son for:
- uncontrolled erection and ejaculation;
- browsing intimate magazines;
- mood swings.
When finding a masturbating teenager, you should be silent and pretend that nothing happened, giving the child the opportunity to clean up after himself. Plus, you don't have to focus on yourself. Doctors do not have a single point of view on this issue. Some consider testicular emptying to be normal from a physiological point of view, others say it is immoral and unacceptable.
Parents will not be able to influence this process, if a teenager wants to do so, he will always find an opportunity to retire.
The notions of morality should be instilled from early childhood, and during the period of growing up this will be perceived as an invasion of privacy.
Erection at an early age
Signs of growth in boys up to 6-8 years confuse parents. Sometimes they appear in children from the first year of life. You often don't have to worry. Happens.
Harmless causes include:
- tight underwear or uncomfortable diaper;
- bladder transfusion;
- mechanical impact.
It is:
- Congenital malformations of the genitourinary system.
- Inflammatory processes in the intestines, bladder, testicles.
- Worm infestations.
- CNS disorders.
- Circulatory problems.
- Infection of the foreskin and others.
Often the diagnosis is made during the initial examination by a pediatrician. Less often it is necessary to perform ultrasound of the genitourinary system, smears, blood tests, etc.
The treatment is chosen according to the test results. Most often, the baby needs antibiotics, physiotherapy and other things.
Independent action is prohibited. Heat and cold compresses can seriously harm the child, and taking medication will distort the clinical signs and prevent a quick diagnosis.
"How old is the penis? " - This question is asked by many parents, concerned about whether everything is fine with the health of their sons. Similar questions arise in older men who are dissatisfied with the size of their penis - they hope that the growth does not stop until old age, the main thing is to follow certain rules.
What is the situation really: how old is the penis, why does the body stop growing, what determines the size and how to enlarge the penis in an older man? We will now answer these questions.
Stages of development in children
- First stage, intrauterine. The penis and scrotum are formed in the fetus by the 16th week, at which time it is now possible to determine the sex of the unborn child.
- Second stage, prepubertal. Before puberty, a boy's genitals are underdeveloped (infantile, that is, childish). In infants the penis is only 1, 5-2, 5 cm, the head of the penis is not visible, the foreskin is narrowed (childhood phimosis). Further growth of the penis is proportional to the growth of the boy.
- Third stage, puberty. With the onset of puberty (in different men this happens in different ways - at 12-15 years) the growth of the genitals becomes more intense. There is an increase in the testicles, there is an increase in the penis. Every three years the body adds an average of 3-4 cm. The growth is accompanied by other signs of puberty - an Adam's apple is formed, the voice is broken, hair appears on the face and body.
Intense penis enlargement is observed in the first three years (up to about 15-18 years). In addition, the growth of the penis slows down (the maximum penis increases by 1 cm per year) and, as a rule, by the age of 19-21, the penis reaches its maximum thickness and length.
If the teenager is not doing well
What if a young man who has started puberty does not have the expected growth of the penis? There is no need to panic, the fact is that everyone changes at different times. If the symptoms of maturation do not appear until the age of 15-16 and the genitals still remain infantile, this is already a serious cause for concern - hormonal disorders may be a possible reason for the lack of proper penis growth.
Another question - what sizes are considered normal? In adolescence, you should not panic about size - growth may be slow in the beginning, and then for a year the penis can be stretched at once by 5-6 cm. The following is considered the minimum length of the penis in children and adolescents:
- age 11 years - 4-6 cm (height of a boy 142-148 cm);
- age 14 years - 6-9 cm (with the boy's height 158-168 cm);
- age 16 years - 7-9 cm (with the height of the boy 165-172 cm);
- age 20 years - 9, 5-12 cm (height 174 cm).
The erect penis of a sexually mature man, whose size reaches 9 cm or more, is considered normal from a medical point of view. With a size of 3-9 cm there is such a thing as a small penis. Less than 3 cm is an anatomical anomaly called micropenis.
What affects the length
What determines the size of a man's penis? First of all, genetics. The presence of various diseases during the development of the boy's body also has a great influence. If in childhood a person had complex diseases of the reproductive or endocrine system, then it is likely to adversely affect the genitals. Thus, for example, with a testosterone deficiency of 60%, there is a decrease in the intensity of penis growth.
Another important factor in the development of the penis is lifestyle. For example, nutrition can affect - for the normal construction of the body requires a sufficient amount of building material. Among the products for the body of the developing boy are especially useful nuts (walnuts, almonds, pistachios), herbs (parsley, dill, cumin), garlic, asparagus, pomegranate, figs, dairy products, beef.
Parents should carefully monitor whether their son is not developing bad habits: if the teenager starts drinking alcohol and smoking before puberty, then the delay in the development of his body is guaranteed.
And what about the adults?
The natural growth of the penis in men after puberty (18-21 years) does not occur. The only thing is that some have a delay in the development of the reproductive system and maturation can end at the age of 25 - such cases are rare, but still happen. If there are no delays, then after the age of twenty it is not worth relying on the fact that the penis will grow a little more.
It is true that there are methods of artificial penis enlargement for men who can not come to terms with the length of their dignity. It is necessary to resort to these measures in situations of utter despair, after all, each of these methods has its own contraindications and side effects.
Of the most common methods of enlarging the penis of an adult man, it is worth noting:
- Hormonal drugs for penis growth (so-called growth hormones).
- The use of extenders (orthopedic tool for stretching soft tissues). Gives an increase of 1-2 cm.
- Installation of the implant in the intracavernous space of the penis.
- Ligamentotomy is a surgical enlargement of the penis by reducing the perineum.
- increase the vacuum. The penis is inserted into the cylinder, from which air is removed from the other end by suction.
- Saline injections. The change in size is observed for only a few months, after which the saline solution gradually dissolves
It is worth noting that the listed procedures are quite unpleasant, as the intimate area of the man is very sensitive. All these methods are recommended not for cosmetic purposes, but when there are medical indications for penis enlargement (for example, in the case of micropenis, when normal sexual life is not possible).
If you still want to increase masculinity, then you can try special sprays and ointments, the composition of which causes an irritating effect. As a result of the increased blood flow and the resulting swelling, the penis visually looks a few centimeters larger. The effect obtained from such funds is short-lived - usually several hours.
