When does the penis stop growing?

The penis is an important sign of male maturity. Generally, the penis of men nowadays begins to develop at around the age of 10. Throughout adolescence, the penis continues to grow and develop as height and other factors increase. Generally, the penis is about the same as that of an adult at around the age of 17, which indicates that boys are basically mature and have sexual function. When does the penis stop growing? This is also a question that all boys in the developmental period are concerned about. Let's take a look at it below.

Some people divide the development of male genitals and secondary sexual characteristics into five stages:

1. Before the age of 10, the testicular volume is only 1-3 ml, and secondary sexual characteristics are not obvious.

2. Around the age of 10-11, the testicles and scrotum begin to enlarge.

3. Around the age of 12-13, the penis grows longer and thicker; the pubic hair increases from less to more, becomes darker, thicker, and more curly.

4. Around the age of 14-15, the penis and scrotum continue to grow larger, the color of the scrotum deepens, the glans penis is fully developed, and the pubic hair is distributed in a diamond or shield shape.

5. Around the age of 16-17, the shape and size of the external genitalia are similar to those of adults, approaching sexual maturity.

In addition, if boys in adolescence do not pay attention to the cultivation of good living habits, it will also affect the development of the penis. They should try to stay up late less, avoid smoking and drinking, and maintain a good attitude to devote themselves to study and life. Boys with slightly shorter penises should not worry about the future. As long as they can complete sexual intercourse smoothly, it is normal. The front third of the female vagina is a sensitive area, and the back two thirds basically have no nerve feeling, so if the penis is slightly smaller, there is no need to worry about the quality of sex life. The key to its pleasure lies in the hardness and duration of the penis. The size of the penis is not directly related to height, palm size, etc.

Through the above introduction, we know when the penis stops growing. The development of the penis is particularly obvious during puberty and develops particularly quickly. During the development period, we should not only pay attention to our diet to ensure comprehensive nutrition, but also pay attention to our daily living habits, ensure adequate sleep and a happy mood.
