Patches and pills do not work. It has been proven time and again that no pills can enlarge your penis. Don't waste your money and hopes on pills and patches. Why do people still try them? Because they are not that expensive and when you have a pill, all you have to do is to swallow it with a glass of water. What can be easier?

The next thing on the list is surgery. Medicine and surgery has advanced tremendously in the past two decades. And some plastic surgeons have thought about capitalizing on this scientific advancement. Surgical solutions for increasing penis size are advertised as safe, effective and definitive. Surgery is definitive, that much is true.

If you have to do it, try to select a good doctor. You want a surgeon that is experienced in the procedure and has been certified in his or her specialty by an appropriate board recognized by the American Board of Medical Specialties or the official certification body of your country. Beware of misleading certifications.

Just because a doctor is "board certified" doesn't mean he or she has had sufficient training in cosmetic surgery. Certification could come from an unrecognized, self-designated board that requires little more than an application fee.

Not all referrals are equal. If you call a hospital to ask for a recommendation, you might be referred to the next cosmetic surgeon on the receptionist's revolving list. Instead seek recommendations from people you trust, such as your family doctor or a friend who has had a successful procedure.

Keep in mind that The American Urological Association, the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery and American Society of Plastic Surgeons issued policy statements against cosmetic surgical procedures to enhance the penis, because they are neither effective nor safe.

Plus, penis enlargement surgery prices are at an all time high. You will spend two or three times what a woman would spend if she wants breast implants. It is dangerous, expensive and not particularly effective.

Lastly, you can try penis traction devices and/or exercising as an alternative to penis enlargement surgery. It may work extremely well or it may be that you'll get bored long before you achieve any results. Penis traction devices and exercises are not all that popular because they take a lot of time to show results.

You will have to work to achieve your goals and you will have to work constantly for months ? 6 to 12 months, to be pr?cised. On the bright side, there are no side effects. There are no scars, no knife threatening your penis and the price is incredibly low.

There are alternatives to penis enlargement surgery, you just have to be able to set clear goals and follow through. Good things come to those who are prepared.
