Thai doctor tells men not to fear shrinking penis

From The Thaiger

A urological surgeon from Thailand insists there is no hard evidence to suggest a man’s penis will shrink if he gets Covid-19 despite claims to the contrary.

Dr Nantawat Siritanan, from Nopparat Rajathanee Hospital, located in Khan Na Yao District, Bangkok, told men not to waste time worrying whether their manhood will shrivel if they catch the coronavirus.

Nantawat was responding to a claim made yesterday by Pakphum Dejhassadin, a medical technician better known as Mor Lab Panda.

Pakphum wrote on Facebook he’s discovered a report stating that men in the US who contracted Covid had noticed their penises had shrunk by one to one-and-a-half inches. He added that coronavirus infection could also cause erectile dysfunction by causing the male sex organ to blood clot, and with a reduced blood flow the penis could fail to reach its fully erect state

Nantawat said it was theoretically possible that Covid could cause male sex organ inflammation, resulting in blood clotting. But he added that there were very few of cases throughout the world and there was no hard proof Covid caused a penis to shrink.

Nantawat said there are other reasons or causes for a penis to shrink, such as age, obesity, or even Peyronie’s Disease.

Peyronie’s disease is a minor injury to the penis. The injury is often caused by vigorous sex, such as bending the penis during penetration or pressure from a partner’s pubic bone, though it can also be caused by sports or other accidents.

I'm a prostate cancer survivor, thankfully, and I can attest to a dramatic shrinking of my penis as an surgical after-result.  Tough to deal with for a guy who was a 90 percent top.
