Question:
I am 15. My penis is 5.9 inches when erect. I shave my genitals every two weeks as I grow quite a lot of hair. Will I grow anymore? I am seen to be at stage 4 in the calculator.
Answer:
There is no need to shave your pubic hair. Shaving increases the risk of infections because it nicks the skin, and the pubic area is warm and moist, which promotes the growth of bacteria and fungi. Normally, that isn’t a problem, but nicks in the skin give places for the infection to take root. Trim the hair if the length bothers you, but avoid shaving.
During stage 4, the length of the penis will grow a bit more, but most of the growth is in making your penis wider when you are erect.
