Dear TeenHealthFX,
My penis is not very wide. It is 7.2 in length while erect but I'm worried about how wide it should be. Please help.

Dear Penis Not Very Wide,
Your question is a common concern for many teens. Your penis size is 7.2 inches erect which is above the average for a male teen (the average is between 2-5 inches). You can click on penis size for more information on this.
Some teens feel embarrassed that their penis is not as large or wide as they think it should be. Keep in mind that your body is undergoing many changes, and will continue to do so for some time. If you feel that something is wrong with you or are insecure about your body and the way it looks, seek some help and guidance from your doctor. Try not to be embarrassed discussing things like this with your doctor. Doctors are trained in dealing with sexuality related issues and will reassure you that everything is okay.
