To understand the basics behind penis enlargement, one must understand the basic structural anatomy of the penis, how erection occurs, and the mechanics of how penile tissue can be strengthened and enlarged.

The human body grows and develops in adaptation to any physical stimuli it encounters. For example, a bodybuilder is stretching and making slight tears in his muscles when he lifts weights. The following response of the bodybuilder’s body is to heal and adept in such a way that it is more prepared to handle the same stress that is placed upon it. The body will keep adapting until that stress no longer affects it.

Many penis enlargement programs rely upon this innate ability of muscle fibers to stretch and grow to accommodate exercise, along with the tendons and ligaments. However, the penis is not made up of muscle tissue, it is affected by the ligaments attaching it to the pubic bone. In addition, the erectile tissue, corpora cavernosa, is a spongy tissue containing distensible blood spaces, which increases in size when blood is pumped into it.

The corpora cavernosa in the male penis is similar in construction to the pore cells in marine life called sponges. Repeatedly stretching the pore cells in a live sponge will cause it's absorption pores to expand and heal in this expanded state to adapt to the minute tearing of the cellular walls of the pores, thereby making the pore cells larger and more capable of absorbing more water and nutrients.

Because the corpora cavernosa is a live tissue that is similar in manner to a sponge and the human body grows and adapts to stressor placed upon it, then causing the spongy tissue of the corpora cavernosa to stretch out will cause it to heal in a large state that can hold more blood.

The external exercises men perform with natural penis enlargement programs stimulate the connective layers of the penis to achieve, after repeated sessions, permanent increase in size and strength. During the rest period between the exercise days, your body will rebuild itself a little bigger and stronger and with time and persistence you will begin to see measurable results.

Pills: There are many pills available on the market that promise to increase your penis length. They all have different names and they all promise the same things; add inches to your penis! These pills work in very similar ways. They encourage enlargement by expanding the chambers in your penis so that it will fill with more blood, thereby causing an erection to be larger. By increasing the size of the chambers, the erection size is also increased. Some pills also build new layers of cells over the old layers of cells inside the penis to increase size. The pills come confidentially and are affordable. This method of enlargement is probably the most convenient and the manufacturers of such pills promise zero adverse side effects.

Surgery: A more extreme method of enlargement, surgery is often the last step men seek when looking for ways of enlarging the penis. Surgery is risking (as all surgeries have risks) and expensive and should be the last resort for men who have tried anything and everything. There are several different types of penile surgeries that remain popular and effective. The first is called fat transfer surgery where fat is removed from the lower abdomen or the thighs and then placed under the skin of the shaft. The fat increases girth though the body might reabsorb the transferred fat and reduce the effectiveness of the surgery.

Another form of surgery is called suspensory ligament removal where the part of the penis that is inside the body is pulled out, adding inches. A small incision is made at the base of the penis and the suspensory ligaments that hold part of the penis inside the body are released. This method instantly adds inches to your total length but there is a major drawback; you will lose the ability to have an erection since the same ligaments that hold portions of the penis inside the body are also responsible for holding the penis upright when erect.

A third form of surgery is called dermal draft augmentation where strips of skin with the fat on the under-surface are removed and then placed under the skin of the penis to add to circumference. Surgery isn’t necessarily permanent as transferred fat can be reabsorbed into the body following the process. Men who have surgery often have to return for a second and even third surgery until they are satisfied with results. There is also a risk for infection and the possibility of scar formation.

Stretching/Lifting exercises: By subjecting the tissues of the penis to force through stretching, it is possible to increase length. Working on the assumption that stretching tissue will cause cell division, stretching exercises work like body building exercises where muscles are stretched and then get rebuilt, maintaining the new mass upon rebuilding. Small tears between cells are the result of stretching and new cells are formed to fill the space, thus increasing size. Stretching devices, methods, and equipment all very but they work on the same premises of treating the penis as if it were a muscle.
