Your penis contracts during exercise – and you can not do anything to stop it

This is often considered a very badist activity, but going to the gym can actually have adverse effects – on your penis.

Dr. Richard Honaker, chief physician of Your Doctors Online, warned that exercise makes men's penises smaller, as well as their testicles.

Sending to Fatherly, he explained, "Everything is related to blood flow.

"In workouts, the body sends blood to muscles and joints, reducing the amount of penis and scrotum."

Dr. Honaker added that there was "nothing to do to prevent it".

Fortunately, the change is only temporary and does not usually cause any concern.

However, you should not take the news as an opportunity to drop out of the gym, according to Dr. Honaker.

He added, "It's more important to exercise regularly than to worry about a temporary loss of penis size."

Physical exercise is not the only thing that shrinks the penis of men. Shrinkage is also an integral part of the aging process and also affects the testes.

Dr. Jamin Brahmbhatt, a Florida-based urologist, told his father, "The penis can lose about a centimeter long between the thirties and the rock until the age of retirement.
