THIS IS A DELICATE AND IMPORTANT ISSUE AND IT IS GOOD THAT YOU ARE ASKING CLEARLY
WHEN THE PENIS APPEARS SMALL OR RETRACTS INTO THE BODY AND THE NERVES FEEL WEAK OR THIN IT OFTEN REFLECTS MULTIPLE FACTORS INCLUDING WEAK CONNECTIVE TISSUE POOR CIRCULATION HORMONAL IMBALANCE AND STRESS RELATED MUSCLE TONE WEAKNESS RATHER THAN JUST SIZE ALONE
MICROPENIS OR PENILE RETRACTION CAN BE PRESENT SINCE BIRTH OR DEVELOP LATER DUE TO HORMONAL IMBALANCE LOW TESTOSTERONE OBESITY OR CHRONIC STRESS AFFECTING BLOOD FLOW AND NERVE FUNCTION
AYURVEDICALLY THE GOAL IS TO SUPPORT CIRCULATION NERVE STRENGTH AND TISSUE NOURISHMENT RATHER THAN FORCEFULLY ENLARGING THE ORGAN
INTERNAL SUPPORT ASHWAGANDHA POWDER 3 GRAMS DAILY WITH WARM MILK AFTER DINNER HELPS IN STRESS REDUCTION HORMONAL BALANCE AND NERVE STRENGTH SHILAJIT SATVA 250 MG DAILY WITH WARM MILK AFTER FOOD SUPPORTS REPRODUCTIVE TISSUE STRENGTH AND BLOOD FLOW GOKSHURA POWDER 2 GRAMS DAILY WITH WATER AFTER FOOD SUPPORTS TISSUE NOURISHMENT AND SEXUAL STRENGTH
EXTERNAL AND LIFESTYLE MEASURES MILD PENILE MASSAGE WITH COCONUT OIL OR MEDICATED OIL ONCE DAILY CAN HELP BLOOD FLOW AND SOFT TISSUE NOURISHMENT REGULAR MODERATE EXERCISE AVOIDING OBESITY AND REDUCING STRESS THROUGH YOGA AND PRANAYAMA IS ESSENTIAL AVOID EXCESSIVE HEAT ALCOHOL AND SMOKING AS THEY REDUCE BLOOD FLOW AND NERVE FUNCTION
SPECIALIZED PHYSICAL EXERCISES FOR PENILE LENGTH AND STRENGTH CAN BE GUIDED BY AN EXPERIENCED THERAPIST OR AYURVEDIC PRACTITIONER
CONSISTENCY IS CRUCIAL THESE CHANGES TAKE MONTHS TO SHOW EFFECTS AND IMPROVEMENT IS GRADUAL HORMONAL TESTING AND REGULAR CHECKUPS WITH A DOCTOR ARE RECOMMENDED TO ENSURE NO UNDERLYING CONDITION IS BEING MISSED
IF YOUFOLLOW THIS COMBINED INTERNAL EXTERNAL AND LIFESTYLE APPROACH WILL NOTICE IMPROVED FIRMNESS STRENGTH AND FUNCTION OVER TIME
True micropenis (congenital very small size) is mostly fixed after puberty, but retraction / buried penis and weak sensation due to stress, weak pelvic floor, poor blood flow or nerve weakness is highly treatable naturally at any age.
Medicines 1 Ashwagandha Lehyam – 10 gm morning + night with warm milk (boosts testosterone & nerve strength). 2 Shilajit resin (pure) – 500 mg morning with warm water (improves blood flow & erection quality). 3 Gokshura capsule – 500 mg twice daily after food (strengthens pelvic muscles & nerves). 4 Tentex Forte – 2 tablets night (supports hardness & reduces retraction). 5 Confido – 1 tablet night (calms stress – your main trigger).
Oil (Daily) Warm Bala Taila + Sesame oil – gentle massage on penis & lower abdomen 10 min nightly followed by hot towel wrap 5 min (improves circulation & nerve strength).
Daily Must-Do Kegel exercises – 50 reps × 3 daily (hold 5–10 sec) – strongest for pelvic floor & reducing retraction. Reverse Kegels – relax pelvic floor 10 reps × 3 daily (helps release tension). Brisk walk 30–45 min daily. Sleep 10 PM – 6 AM strictly (testosterone peaks at night).
Diet Daily: 4 soaked almonds + 2 dates + banana morning, moong khichdi + ghee, pomegranate. Avoid: excessive tea/coffee, junk, late dinner.
See urologist for check (rule out buried penis, nerve issue or hormonal cause).

Hello Thanks for being so open about this. I know how tough and confusing these issues can get, especially when they stick around for years and start eating away at your confidence, sense of masculinity, and mental health. But dont worry we are here to help you out 😊
1. True Micropenis
This is rare. The penis length is way below the average (more than 2.5 standard deviations), and you’d usually know from birth. It’s usually caused by hormonal or genetic issues.
2. Buried or Hidden Penis (this one’s super common)
Here, the penis seems to disappear into the body.
This usually happens because of a weak suspensory ligament, extra fat in the lower belly, pelvic floor weakness, or even just a lot of stress. The actual size might be normal on the inside — it just looks like it’s hiding.
3. Functional Shrinkage or Weak Nerve Function
This is when your penis feels thin, shrunk, or just not strong. Stress, anxiety, and overthinking make it worse. It’s usually tied to poor blood flow, nerve desensitization, hormone shifts, or pelvic floor issues.
From what you’ve described — long-term, stress-related, retracting inside — it sounds much more like buried penis or functional retraction. Not true micropenis.
About “Weak Penile Nerves”
Penile nerves don’t actually get thin, but they can get under-stimulated, desensitized, or suffer from bad blood supply. When that happens, you get poor erections, more retraction when flaccid, and your confidence takes a hit. Stress really makes all this worse.
So, is there treatment?
Yes, but it depends on what’s really going on. There’s no magic pill or oil that actually works, though — don’t trust anyone selling those.
What actually helps?
1. Get a Medical Evaluation (seriously, this matters) See a urologist or an endocrinologist. They’ll check for things like testosterone problems, prolactin, thyroid issues, and help figure out if this is true micropenis or something else. You might need hormone tests or a penile Doppler to check blood flow.
2. If it’s True Micropenis Treatment for adults is limited. Hormone therapy only helps when you’re a kid. Surgery is possible, but it’s rare and only for carefully chosen cases. There’s no medicine — herbal, Ayurvedic, or mainstream — that will suddenly make it bigger if it’s true micropenis in adulthood.
3. If it’s Buried or Retracted Penis (which is way more likely)
You can definitely improve this.
- Work on weight management if that’s an issue.
- Strengthen your pelvic floor muscles.
- Cut down on chronic stress and anxiety.
- Pelvic floor physiotherapy helps.
- Medical vacuum erection devices can be useful.
- Tackle anxiety and improve blood flow.
A lot of men see real improvement with these steps.
Ayurveda’s Role (helpful, but not magic) Ayurveda can support things like calming your nerves, improving circulation, lowering stress, and building sexual confidence. But it won’t “grow” the penis. Watch out for fake sexual medicines online. If you use Ayurveda, make sure it’s tailored to you.
Really Important Warnings
Stay away from enlargement pills online, injections by anyone who isn’t a urologist, oils claiming they’ll regrow nerves, or sketchy traction devices.
These can seriously mess things up permanently.
Don’t Skip the Mental Side Chronic stress and anxiety make everything worse. They can literally cause more retraction and mess with your nerves, and it’s a vicious cycle. Treating both your mind and body together actually works best.
So, here’s the honest takeaway: - What you’re feeling is real and it matters. - Most cases are functional and can improve a lot. - The right treatment depends on a proper diagnosis. - There’s no miracle fix, but you can make meaningful progress.

What you are describing is very often not true micropenis but a functional retraction where the penis appears to go inside the body due to weak blood flow poor nerve stimulation pelvic muscle weakness fat deposition stress response and long term anxiety This condition becomes more noticeable during stress cold fatigue or sexual fear
The penis is a vascular and nerve dependent organ When circulation and nerve signaling reduce it stays in a contracted inward state rather than projecting outward This does not mean permanent damage in most cases but it does mean the system has been under strain for a long time
Stress plays a very strong role Chronic stress keeps the body in a protective mode reducing blood flow to reproductive organs Over time the tissues lose tone and responsiveness This is reversible but it takes patience and consistency
Treatment focuses on improving nerve strength circulation tissue nourishment and hormonal balance
You may start the following medicines
Ashwagandha tablet five hundred mg twice daily after food
Gokshura tablet five hundred mg twice daily after food
Shilajit capsule three hundred mg once daily after breakfast
Kaunch beej powder half teaspoon with warm milk at night
Vitamin e capsule four hundred IU once daily
Massage the lower abdomen groin and penile base with medicated oil at night on alternate days
Avoid excessive masturbation pornography and performance pressure
Improvement is gradual First signs are better warmth sensation fullness morning response and reduced inward pulling Size perception improves as circulation and tone return
This condition is not a life sentence Many men experience functional recovery when the nervous system and blood flow are supported correctly
Hello,
Many patients come saying “my penis has become small, weak, or goes inside the body.” In most long-standing cases like yours (>5 years with stress as trigger), this is not true micropenis. What is actually happening? There are three common overlapping problems: 1. Functional Shrinkage / Retraction • Penis appears small or pulled inside, especially: • during stress • cold weather • anxiety • fatigue • Size improves temporarily during sleep or relaxation This is reversible.
2. Weak Nerve & Blood Supply • Nerves supplying the penis become less responsive • Blood flow becomes weak or inconsistent • Result: • poor firmness • reduced sensation • delayed or weak erection • penis feels thin or lifeless
3. Mind–Body Stress Loop Stress → nerve tightening → reduced blood flow → fear → more stress This loop continues for years if untreated.
Ayurveda sees this as a Vata-dominant disorder. Key involved tissues (Dhatu): • Shukra Dhatu → sexual strength & quality • Majja Dhatu → nerves & spinal control • Ojas → vitality and confidence What goes wrong: • Excess Vata causes: • shrinkage • dryness • nerve weakness • anxiety • Stress worsens Vata • Over time tissues lose nourishment So the problem is functional weakness, not loss of organ.
Treatment goals : 1. Calm aggravated Vata 2. Strengthen nerves and blood flow 3. Nourish Shukra & Majja dhatu 4. Restore pelvic tone 5. Break the stress–fear cycle This requires internal + external + lifestyle together.
INTERNAL TREATMENT (Medicines)
1. Nerve & Stress-Balancing Medicines To Calm Vata, reduce anxiety, improve nerve signal
• Ashwagandha avaleha= 1 tsp with milk at night • Brahmi vati = 1 tab at night
To relax nerves, reduce fear response, improve brain–penis connection.
2. Shukra & Majja Nourishment Improve sexual tissue strength and nerve health
• Kapikacchu churna = 1 tsp with milk twice daily • Gokshura capsules= 1 cap twice daily after meals • Shilajit capsule= 1 cap with milk on morning
They support testosterone function, sperm health, nerve conductivity, and stamina.
Duration: Usually 3–6 months, sometimes longer.
EXTERNAL TREATMENT (VERY IMPORTANT) 1. Oil Massage Where: • Lower abdomen • Inner thighs • Pelvic area Oils used: • Bala Ashwagandha Taila Why: • Improves blood circulation • Relaxes nerves • Prevents penile retraction • Daily or at least 4–5 days/week.
YOGA & PRANAYAMA (NON-NEGOTIABLE) Best Yogasanas: • Baddha Konasana • Malasana • Paschimottanasana • Setu Bandhasana Mudras: • Ashwini Mudra – strengthens pelvic nerves • Moola Bandha – improves erection control Pranayama: • Anulom Vilom – nerve balance • Bhramari – stress & anxiety • Slow deep breathing 20–30 minutes daily is enough.
DIET Prefer: • Warm, freshly cooked food • Milk (if digestible) • Ghee (small amount) • Dates, soaked almonds • Rice, wheat, moong dal Avoid: • Excess spicy, dry, junk food • Alcohol • Excess tea/coffee • Cold drinks • Late-night eating
HOME REMEDIES (SUPPORTIVE) • Warm oil massage before bath • Lukewarm milk at night • Stress-reducing routines • Avoid excessive pornography or fear-based thoughts
LIFESTYLE CHANGES • Avoid excessive masturbation • Maintain regular sleep • Avoid cold exposure to genital area • Moderate exercise (not extreme)
INVESTIGATIONS ADVISED (VERY IMPORTANT) Before or alongside treatment: 1. Serum Testosterone 2. Fasting Blood Sugar 3. Lipid Profile 4. Thyroid Profile 5. Psychological stress assessment (if severe anxiety) This helps rule out medical causes and improves success.
EXPECTED OUTCOME (HONEST) • Improvement is gradual, not instant • First signs: better relaxation, reduced retraction • Then: improved firmness & sensation • Structural size change is limited, but functional size • This is not a hopeless condition • You are dealing with a functional nerve-Vata disorder • Ayurveda can help if done systematically • Self-medication or online shortcuts will not work • Consistency matters more than strong medicines
