What's wrong with a short penis?

Small penis may be caused by low testosterone level, congenital malformation, chromosomal abnormalities, etc.

1. Low testosterone level Patients

with congenital pituitary agenesis, occipital encephalocele with ataxia cerebellar malformation, etc., may affect testicular testosterone secretion due to hypothalamic pituitary dysfunction. When testosterone level is low, patients may develop small penis.

2. Congenital malformation

patients with hermaphroditism, bilateral cryptorchidism and testicular dysplasia may cause small penis.

3. Chromosomal abnormalities

patients with multiple X syndrome, multiple chromosome abnormalities, etc. may also cause small penis.
