Does penis enlargement surgery affect function or sexual performance ?

One of the most common concerns men have before considering penis enlargement surgery is whether the procedure could affect sensation, erections, or sexual performance.

This is an understandable question — and one that deserves a clear, evidence-based answer.

Does Penis Enlargement Surgery Affect Sensation?

When performed correctly by an experienced Urologist, penis enlargement surgery does not damage the nerves responsible for sensation.

The nerves that control sensitivity and sexual pleasure run deeper within the penile structure and are not interfered with during surgery. As a result, most patients report no loss of sensation once healing is complete.

It is normal to experience temporary changes during early recovery due to swelling and bruising, but these settle as healing progresses.

What About Sexual Performance?

Penis enlargement surgery does not impair erectile function.

In fact, many patients report:

• Improved sexual confidence

• Reduced anxiety around intimacy

• Better overall sexual satisfaction

The procedure does not affect blood flow to the erectile tissue, which is essential for maintaining erections.

Can Surgery Improve Confidence?

For many men, confidence plays a major role in sexual performance.

Although most patients undergoing penis enlargement surgery have a statistically normal-sized penis, the psychological benefit of improved appearance can be significant. This often leads to:

• Greater confidence during intimacy

• Reduced performance anxiety

• Improved partner communication

When Can Sexual Activity Resume?

Sexual activity should usually be avoided for 6 weeks after surgery to allow proper healing and to protect results.

Your Urologist will guide you through recovery and confirm when it is safe to resume sexual activity.
