We've all heard of miracle pills that can make your penis grow, but what do penis supplements actually achieve? Explore pills for penile enhancement and safe alternatives to enhance your penis aesthetically.

Have you been considering a penis enlargement technique to grow your penis? There are many tips, techniques, and claims on the market these days that swear they have the #1 solution to giving you a larger penis. Of course, it is important to know that many of these claims are false, some are potentially risky (such as surgical procedures), and some come with other unpleasant side effects. One of the most popular of these penis extension techniques is pills for penile growth, which claim to be a magic solution resulting in a longer and thicker penis. Is this true? We’re here to find out.

What are Penis Pills? 

Also known as penis enlargement pills, over the past decade or so there have been a variety of penis supplements (including penis enlargement gummies) that claim to assist you in growing your penis in a variety of ways, and below are just a few of these claims: 

  • Increase testosterone levels 

  • Improve sexual stamina 

  • Boost blood flow to your penis

  • Physically increase the length of the penis 

Usually, these penis supplements are made up of a variety of different types of minerals, vitamins, and such as Horny Goat Weed or Vitamin D, but other penis supplements have been discovered by the FDA to have sildenafil and tadalafil, among other undeclared ingredients. Both sildenafil and tadalafil are famously found in Viagra and Cialis to help treat erectile dysfunction, with no real connection to growing the physical size of your penis in any way, and on the contrary, these undeclared ingredients can actually be major health risks for those with diabetes, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol, as they may interact with nitrates found in prescription drugs. 

How are Penis Pills Supposed to Work?

Pills for penile growth are supposed to be a one-stop solution for getting a larger and girthier penis, but as Urology Care reports, “There are many ads about how to increase penis size. There are penis pills, creams, stretchers, stretching devices, and surgery. Almost none of them work.” Further on, Urology explains that while there are some other alternatives to penis gummies or pills that technically work, these types of surgery are, “not shown to be safe or effective”. 

Why Are People Interested in Penis Enlargement Procedures? 

Unfortunately, due to societal perceptions and marketing techniques, many men have misunderstood the size of their own penis, assuming that they are “below average”. A study from 2021 shows that many men believe that the average length of an erect penis is more than six inches, while research shows that the average length of a penis is around 5.5 inches long. 

For many men, they do not realize that they are in the average range, which results in many men being dissatisfied with the size and shape of their penis. This also does not take into consideration their significant others, who on average find that penis size is just a small factor when it comes to sexual relationships, and in one study 84% of significant others were satisfied with the size of their partner's penis, a massive difference compared to the majority of men who find themselves unsatisfied with their proportions.  

Are There Safe Alternatives to Penis Enlargement Pills?

While there is not a magic solution such as penis enlargement gummies, there are safer alternatives to penile surgery that can deliver satisfying results with minimal downtime. Lushful Aesthetic’s penis filler utilizes FDA-approved hyaluronic acid dermal filler to help patients acquire a girthier penis. Starting with an in-depth consultation, our goal at Lushful Aesthetics is to make sure your results are safe and satisfying. With no effect on erectile function, increased confidence in the bedroom, and a longer length when flaccid, filler is a great alternative to penis enlargement pills.
