So before you start, let's make sure you are measuring your penis accurately.  This will allow you to know exactly where you're starting from so that you have something to compare all future measurements against for conclusive evidence of growth.

First you need to measure your starting lengths, both flaccid and erect. We also recommend that you keep a logbook of your gains. Remember when measuring be negative and round down the totals so that when you do see gains you don't think it's just because you didn't measure correctly! You should only measure once every month. Constantly measuring every day will lead to inaccurate results and make it harder to motivate yourself.


Measuring the Flaccid Length (soft)

Flaccid gains in your penis are likely to be some of the first results you notice from any penis enlargement guide - this one included. However the flaccid length can be influenced by many environmental factors (such as room temperature), and as such it is important to maintain a standardized method and conditions when measuring in order to maintain accurate results.

In order to gain an accurate measurement of your flaccid penis length, stand in an upright and extend it in front of you, until it is a horizontal position. Once your penis is horizontal to the floor, place a ruler to the side of your penis, and pressing back slightly on your pubic bone, take an accurate measurement in millimeters to the tip of your penis head. Throughout this procedure it is also important to note that your penis should be fully erect, and should be held by one hand throughout the measurement just below the head.

Measuring the Erect Length (hard)

The erect length is what most members are interested in. To measure the length of your fully erect penis accurately, it is once again best to measure from the side of the penis, with the ruler facing up at you. While standing, lock your knees and hold your penis with one hand just behind the head. Gently angle your erect penis until it is parallel to the floor.

With your other hand, hold the ruler next to your penis, pressed against your pubic bone (just above the base of the penis). Make sure the ruler and penis are parallel with one another.

Gently pull your penis out as far as you can and measure to the tip of the head. Record your measurement to the nearest 1/16th of an inch or nearest millimeter.

Note: To get the most precise measurements, try moving your pelvis or changing the angle to see what variations can occur during this type of measurement. Once you've figured out how to measure to get the same result as your erect length, you will find that this measurement is easier and more convenient than measuring your actual erection.

Measuring the Flaccid Girth

The girth can be extremely awkward to measure because many people have different size girth measurements depending on which part of the penis that you measure. The standardized way is to measure in the centre of the penis shaft. When flaccid hold your penis out in front of you and wrap a tape measure around your penis. Do not pull the tape measure too hard, pull it to a reasonable level and remember this LEVEL of pull for the next time you measure.

Measuring the Erect Girth

Make sure your penis is 100% erect and then proceed with the measuring. Hold your penis out in front of you so it is parallel with the floor. With your other hand place the tape measure around the penis making sure not to pull too tight. The average erect girth is 5" - 5.5" according to recent surveys conducted.
