Hi
I know this sounds mad but I am worried the size of my son's penis. He is 3 it is much smaller than other boys his age.
He has no medical conditions - I have been to the GP about it. He agrees it is smaller than average but that it is just one of those things.
I am really worried that it might affect him when he is older. I feel if anything can be done it should be done b4 he is old enough to understand as definately dont want any issues when a teenager.
Anyway a search of the web reveals that testostone treatment if given b4 puberty can help. I mentioned this to my GP who said it is not something that the NHS would do. He implied that it was an American view point (to earn money) - giving children hormones - but the main studies I looked at were scandinvian and indian.
Anyway my GP has said he will refer me privately if I want a second opinion. I am going to do this even though the £150 is more than we can afford.
What do u think?
