What study methods produce the most reliable adult penis-size measurements (flaccid, stretched, erect) and why do results vary?

converges on a clear answer: the most reliable use —specifically bone‑pressed length from the pubic bone to the glans tip and erect measurements taken under controlled conditions—while flaccid or self...
