A case control study was designed through retrospective data analysis of patients ( n = 239) seeking advice for SSP and a control group ( n = 59). This included sociodemographics, other andrological complaints, and penile dimensions (pendulous length [PL], penopubic or total length [TL], and circumference [CF]) at flaccid and erect states and the size of the prepubic fatty pad. The results reported that most patients were single, students, and smokers and had not completed a university education. Several patients reported falsely premature ejaculation (PE), penile curvature (PC), and small-sized testes. Most penile dimensions of the patients (mean, cm) were significantly lower than those of the controls, whether in flaccid (PL: 7.4 vs. 8.05, p = .008; CF: 8.7 vs. 8.98, p = .026) or erect state (PL: 11.8 vs. 13, p = .000; TL: 14.2 vs. 15, p = .000; CF: 11.3 vs. 11.8, p = .003). However, no patient presented with a pendulous penile length &lt;4 cm in flaccid or &lt;7 cm in erect state. In conclusion, Egyptian men consulting for SSP did not have true small organs, but their penile dimensions were slightly smaller than those of men without such complaint. The proper sexual education program is highly advisable in these situations to avoid the myths and misconceptions about sexuality.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/1557988314565167","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,1,6]],"date-time":"2015-01-06T23:24:06Z","timestamp":1420586646000},"page":"220-227","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":9,"title":["Consultation for Small-Sized Penis in the Egyptian Males"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"10","author":[{"given":"Nader","family":"Salama","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Alexandria Faculty of Medicine, Alexandria, Egypt"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2015,1,6]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-1557988314565167","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0022-5347(17)32804-5"},{"key":"bibr2-1557988314565167","first-page":"179","volume":"43","author":"Ajmani M.
