u/SkepticalStarter · 420 upvotes · 6 days ago
Do penis enlargement pills actually work, or is it all marketing nonsense? I see ads everywhere but haven’t met anyone who got real results.
u/RealTalker · 250 upvotes · 6 days ago
Short answer: they don’t add inches. Most are just herbal blends that boost blood flow, so maybe you get stronger erections, but that’s about it.
u/AgreeingGuy · 160 upvotes · 6 days ago
Exactly. If pills really made you bigger, doctors would prescribe them. At best, they’re overpriced vitamins.
u/TriedForFun · 380 upvotes · 5 days ago
I tried a popular brand for 3 months. Didn’t see size changes, but my erections were harder, and I felt more sensitive. Probably just the ginseng or whatever was inside.
u/NotImpressed · 200 upvotes · 5 days ago
Same. Felt like an energy boost, but no enlargement. Good for stamina maybe, but don’t expect inches.
u/PlaceboEffect · 140 upvotes · 5 days ago
Half of it is probably placebo. You think it’s working, so you feel more confident in bed.
u/PartnerView · 345 upvotes · 5 days ago
My ex tried those pills secretly. I didn’t notice a size change, but he was more confident, and that alone made intimacy better.
u/SupportiveVoice · 185 upvotes · 5 days ago
Confidence can make more difference than half an inch anyway. Pills might not work physically, but they can help mentally.
u/OldSchoolPE · 330 upvotes · 4 days ago
Been in the enlargement scene for years. Pills don’t grow anything. If you want results, traction devices and pumps actually have some science behind them. I’ve also seen people on other forums swear by traditional African herbal potions. Some claim real growth, but I’ve never tried them myself.
u/TruthHurts · 175 upvotes · 4 days ago
This. Most commercial pills are just scams. At least extenders and pumps have published studies showing modest but real results. Herbs might help with blood flow, but they’re not a miracle. I’ve heard about African potions too, but could never find where to source any.
u/PEVeteran · 120 upvotes · 4 days ago
Yep. Spent hundreds on supplements before realizing the only reliable gains come from mechanical tension.
u/CuriousBuyer · 310 upvotes · 4 days ago
So are all pills useless, or do some actually help?
u/IngredientGeek · 195 upvotes · 4 days ago
They won’t give you size, but some formulas improve blood flow — stuff like L-arginine, maca, or ginseng. Good for erections, not enlargement.
u/StraightShooter · 135 upvotes · 4 days ago
Exactly. Call them erection support pills, not enlargement pills. Marketing makes them sound like magic, but they’re not.
u/TrialAndError · 390 upvotes · 6 days ago
Tried three different brands of enlargement pills back in college. Biggest effect was draining my wallet. Zero size change.
u/HardTruths · 220 upvotes · 6 days ago
Same here. Most are just caffeine, ginseng, and filler. You might feel more “energy” but that’s not enlargement.
u/ScienceNerd · 145 upvotes · 6 days ago
Right. If there was a pill that could safely add inches, it’d be all over mainstream medicine.
u/HerbalFan · 360 upvotes · 5 days ago
I’ll say this: some herbal blends gave me stronger erections and better stamina. No actual growth, but performance did improve.
u/SkepticalOne · 210 upvotes · 5 days ago
That’s the only thing they’re good for. Improved blood flow, maybe more sensitivity. Enlargement? No way.
u/ExSpender · 340 upvotes · 5 days ago
Spent nearly $500 over two years chasing “miracle pills.” Didn’t gain a millimeter. Learned the hard way that only extenders and pumps are worth any attention.
u/PEJourney · 185 upvotes · 5 days ago
Respect. Same here. Pills drained me, while an extender gave me slow but real results. Took months, but at least I could measure it.
u/CuriousButWary · 125 upvotes · 5 days ago
Exactly why I’ve stayed away from pills. Too many false promises, not enough science.
u/PartnerPerspective · 310 upvotes · 4 days ago
My boyfriend tried pills secretly. I didn’t notice size differences, but he seemed more confident and had stronger erections. That part was nice, but the “enlargement” promise was empty.
u/ConfidenceCounts · 175 upvotes · 4 days ago
That’s a fair point. Even if pills don’t change size, sometimes they change mindset, and that can improve the bedroom experience.
u/OldTimerPE · 300 upvotes · 4 days ago
Been in PE communities for 20+ years. Pills have always been the biggest scam. Devices like extenders have clinical proof. Pills just have marketing.
u/RealTalker · 165 upvotes · 4 days ago
Couldn’t agree more. Pills are for guys who want quick fixes. Real gains take patience and mechanical methods.
u/SideEffectStory · 370 upvotes · 6 days ago
I tried a cheap pill brand from an online ad. Within a week I had stomach cramps and crazy headaches. Definitely not worth the risk.
u/CautionFlag · 230 upvotes · 6 days ago
Same here. Some of those pills aren’t even regulated. You don’t know what’s inside. Could be anything.
u/ScienceCheck · 155 upvotes · 6 days ago
Exactly. Many contain hidden stimulants or unlisted drugs. Always sketchy when the label is vague.
u/BetterSafe · 340 upvotes · 5 days ago
Doctors don’t recommend “enlargement pills” because there’s no solid proof. At best, you get herbs that help with circulation. At worst, you get dangerous junk.
u/AgreeingVoice · 200 upvotes · 5 days ago
Spot on. I asked my doctor once and he laughed. Said the only approved pills are for ED, not for enlargement.
u/FrustratedBuyer · 135 upvotes · 5 days ago
Same reaction here. My doctor told me I was wasting money and risking side effects.
u/FalseHopeBuyer · 400 upvotes · 7 days ago
Back in college I bought into the “gain 3 inches in 30 days” ads. Complete scam. Took them for two months, saw nothing.
u/RealTalk · 220 upvotes · 7 days ago
Same here. The promises are insane. If pills really worked, every man on earth would be buying them.
u/BoostedNotBigger · 355 upvotes · 6 days ago
I won’t lie — some pills gave me stronger erections and more energy. But size? Not even close.
u/AgreeingVoice · 200 upvotes · 6 days ago
That’s exactly it. They’re erection boosters, not enlargement pills. Marketing lies about the real effect.
u/PartnerInput · 145 upvotes · 6 days ago
My partner tried them. No size difference, but he was more confident and lasted longer. That alone made intimacy better.
u/SickFromSupps · 370 upvotes · 5 days ago
Ordered some off a website. Within days I had headaches and crazy heart palpitations. Tossed the bottle fast.
u/WarningBell · 210 upvotes · 5 days ago
Same thing happened to me. These aren’t regulated well. You never really know what’s in them.
u/ScienceCheck · 140 upvotes · 5 days ago
Exactly. Some brands have been caught sneaking in unlisted drugs. It’s a real risk.
u/AskedMyDoc · 325 upvotes · 5 days ago
I straight-up asked my doctor if enlargement pills work. He laughed and said only FDA-approved ED meds have proven results, and those don’t add size.
u/LogicalView · 180 upvotes · 5 days ago
That’s the truth. If enlargement pills worked, doctors would prescribe them. Instead, they’re sold in shady online shops.
u/NoMoreScams · 125 upvotes · 5 days ago
Wish I had that talk before spending hundreds on nonsense.
u/ConfidenceShift · 345 upvotes · 4 days ago
Even though the pills didn’t add size, they made me feel like I was doing something. That confidence alone changed the way I carried myself in bed.
u/AgreeingPartner · 190 upvotes · 4 days ago
I noticed that with my boyfriend. No physical changes, but his confidence went up, and that made the experience better for both of us.
u/RealisticTake · 135 upvotes · 4 days ago
Honestly, maybe that’s their only real value. Not growth, but mindset.
u/DisappointedGuy · 310 upvotes · 4 days ago
Biggest scam is how they advertise. “Gain 3 inches in 30 days” is pure fantasy. I fell for it once, never again.
u/MarketingTrap · 185 upvotes · 4 days ago
The ads are so over the top it’s almost comedy. But people still buy because they want the quick fix.
u/HardLesson · 125 upvotes · 4 days ago
Learned the same lesson the hard way. If it sounds impossible, it is.
u/PartnerPerspective · 290 upvotes · 4 days ago
From a woman’s perspective: I can’t tell if pills work, but I can tell when a guy feels more confident. That’s the only thing I ever noticed.
u/ConfidenceBoost · 165 upvotes · 4 days ago
And that’s why people keep buying them. Even if it’s placebo, confidence improves performance — which partners pick up on.
u/NoFaithInPills · 365 upvotes · 6 days ago
Enlargement pills are the biggest scam in the industry. No clinical proof, no real results. Just bottles of overpriced herbs.
u/StillCurious · 225 upvotes · 6 days ago
I agree they don’t enlarge, but some do help with erections. I tried one with L-arginine and maca — felt like my stamina improved.
u/ScienceGuy · 150 upvotes · 6 days ago
That’s because those ingredients increase blood flow. Same idea as pre-workout supplements, just marketed for the bedroom.
u/PerformanceBoost · 340 upvotes · 5 days ago
I wouldn’t call them “enlargement pills.” More like performance pills. They don’t add inches, but they can help you last longer or feel more sensitive.
u/AgreeingUser · 200 upvotes · 5 days ago
Exactly. Marketing ruined their reputation. If they sold them as “erection support,” fewer people would feel ripped off.
u/MarketingSkeptic · 130 upvotes · 5 days ago
Yep. The scam is in the promises. The ingredients aren’t terrible — it’s the ads claiming 3 inches in a month that make them laughable.
u/RealExperience · 300 upvotes · 4 days ago
I tried one well-reviewed brand for three months. No change in size, but morning wood came back stronger than ever. Honestly, that was enough for me.
u/PracticalTake · 175 upvotes · 4 days ago
That’s the best way to look at it. Don’t expect miracles. If they help with function, that’s already a win.
u/ResultsMatter · 120 upvotes · 4 days ago
Exactly. Set expectations right and you won’t be disappointed. It’s the false advertising that ruins it for everyone.
u/FinalVerdict · 380 upvotes · 1 week ago
After years of trying different pills, I’ll say it straight: they don’t make you bigger. If that’s your goal, you’ll be disappointed every time.
u/HardLesson · 235 upvotes · 1 week ago
Same. I wasted hundreds chasing “miracle capsules.” The only thing that ever gave measurable gains was using a traction extender.
u/BeenThereToo · 150 upvotes · 1 week ago
Yep. Learned the hard way. Wish someone told me pills were hype before I bought into it.
u/ConfidenceBoost · 350 upvotes · 6 days ago
Here’s the one thing I’ll say: even if pills don’t enlarge, they did give me confidence. Stronger erections, more energy, and that helped my sex life.
u/AgreeingPartner · 200 upvotes · 6 days ago
I noticed that too with my boyfriend. He wasn’t bigger, but he acted more sure of himself, and that made a huge difference in the bedroom.
u/PositiveSpin · 140 upvotes · 6 days ago
Maybe that’s their only real value — not physical enlargement, but mental and sexual confidence.
u/SkepticForLife · 330 upvotes · 5 days ago
Still, I think the whole industry is a scam. If you’re buying for size, you’re being misled. They prey on insecurity.
u/RealityCheck · 185 upvotes · 5 days ago
True. The ads promising inches in weeks are pure lies. It’s wrong how they market these products.
u/DefenderView · 125 upvotes · 5 days ago
But to be fair, not all supplements are trash. Some blends support better circulation. Just don’t expect length gains.
u/CulturalNote · 310 upvotes · 5 days ago
I’ve read about traditional remedies from different cultures being used to increase penis size for centuries. Even if results aren’t well-studied, the belief in them has always been strong.
u/FinalThoughts · 295 upvotes · 4 days ago
Bottom line: penis enlargement pills don’t deliver the growth they promise. At best, you get improved erections, stamina, and confidence. If you want size, look elsewhere.
u/RealTalker · 170 upvotes · 4 days ago
Exactly. Treat them like a performance boost, not a growth tool. If you know that going in, you won’t feel scammed.
