Measuring Flaccid Length
-
1
Take off any cock rings, base rings, or supportive bands. Stand up (if able). Allow your penis to hang naturally while completely soft (don't hold on to it).
-
2
Measure along the top, from base (where the shaft meets the body) to tip of the glans. If you have a foreskin, don't roll it back! But don't include it in the measurements either.
-
3
Use a cloth tape measure or string (then measure the string) — you want to follow the curve of your penis!
-
4
Measure multiple times over at least a day or two under normal conditions — not when very cold, and not fresh out of the bath.
If you're uncircumcised: measure to the end of your glans, not the end of your foreskin, without rolling anything back!
We're looking for the smallest length you get consistently, so you're going to want to measure at least six or seven different times — and more is better!
