The penis when erect is larger and longer than a flaccid penis and a belly may contribute to the illusion that it is small. The penis may also seem small because of the bigger abdominal circumference and larger fat pad over the pubic area.
A penis may change shape and look different if a man loses weight. However, if there is indeed a medical condition, a medical checkup is required to receive a proper diagnosis.
Frustration felt as a result of sexual dissatisfaction can cause mental strain and relationship problems.
Communicate with your partner about new sex positions that are comfortable for both of you.
You can try different positions which will have the most direct genital-to-genital contact. Try you being on top.
