This is how it is measured
Basically, the length is always measured on the top of the stem root to the top of the glans. If a fat pad is located above the root of the penis, it may be pressed in slightly during measurement. For measurements of the circumference, one usually takes the circumference at the root. In some studies, the circumference of the glans was measured instead, so this information would be very contradictory and therefore not included in the analysis.Data sources
In this evaluation, the results of numerous studies have been evaluated and made relative to the number of their probands. Wherever possible, sources where skipped when they were based on self-reported measurements. The collected values should roughly illustrate the relationship between penile sizes and origin, instead of giving an exact evaluation. In some cases there were only a few dozens of test persons in a country, which doesn't allow a representative survey.- Am I normal? (BJU International)
