British masculinity has apparently grown by almost a tenth in the past two years and Ozempic could be part of the reason for this, an expert suggests.
Data shows that penis size in Britain increased by 0.46 inches between 2022 and 2024 to an average of 5.63 inches when erect.
This equates to an increase of 8.9 percent and places Britain 8th in the global rankings for growth.
While British penises may be growers, they are certainly not douches. They rank 60th in overall size on the world stage.
They were thoroughly defeated by their Sudanese equivalents, who were reported to average 7 inches at full mast.

Even when it came to penis growth, Britain made only modest gains compared to Venezuelans who somehow managed to add 1.42 inches to their penises over the past two years for a new length of 6.67 inches.
At the other end of the scale, Italian manhoods have shrunk by a fifth to just under 5 inches.
The data was collected by an online pharmacy NowPatient using sources from various studies.
Some of this was self-reported data which led to the obvious problem that some men may have over-exaggerated their package.
In addition, some studies may have had smaller sample sizes among men, meaning they may not be a true reflection of the population as a whole.
It is unknown why British penis size has grown in the past two years.
Dr. However, Richard Viney, consultant urological surgeon at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham, said there are a number of possibilities.
The most obvious thing is that these are not comparable comparisons between 2022 and 2024.
The penis can vary by ethnicity, even within the same national group, meaning that different studies in different years may yield different results if they are more or less diverse.
Similarly, Dr. Viney that different ages in the Brits surveyed may have played a role in the different result: ‘Men’s penises become shorter as they age (due to) increasing body fat and increasing prostate size, which pushes the penis back into the body drawn.’
Dr. Viney added that it is theoretically possible that new drugs such as Ozempic and Wegovy, which are used to treat diabetes and obesity respectively and can help people lose weight, could also be a factor.
‘It is possible that there is an Ozempian effect. As men lose weight, their penises appear larger,” he said.
NowPatient pharmacist Navin Khosla said that while the data is “interesting,” penis size doesn’t matter in a medical sense.
“Just as some people prefer different fashion styles, eye colors or characteristics of a partner, some people are more attracted to larger penises or breasts, while others prefer smaller ones,” he said.
There are a number of penis enlargement procedures that men who are concerned about their masculinity can opt for.
One of these is surgery to cut the internal ligaments that support the penis within the body, artificially moving part of it downward and increasing its length.
Other techniques include inserting a prosthesis to lengthen the penis, surgical reconstruction of the penis that adds tissue to increase its length, by removing fat from the pubic area or the skin that connects the penis to the scrotum, by to cut.
These procedures are not cheap and can cost more than £7,000.
Some penis lengthening procedures are available on the NHS, but this is usually only for patients who have a developmental problem that gave them a micropenis or if their organ was damaged in a serious accident.
Like any surgery, these procedures are not without risks.
