It is very important to note some of these facts, as the failure of the hormonal manifestation or abnormality in most cases leads to some birth defects, such as hermaphrodites, gay or even babies born without any sex organ.
Haven said that, it is also important to know that for all the attentions that are directed below the belt, most men actually know very little about their penises. Here’s the knowledge you need to keep yours healthy, strong, and ready for action-for life.
1. Every penis was a clitoris. Every penis in the womb starts as a clitoris before hormones ‘sex’ the brain of the to-be male. The penis retains the mark of its female heritage: its dark underskin and the thin ridge or seam, known as the raphe, which runs from scrotum to anus, are remnants of the fusion of the vaginal lips.
2. Penises used to have spines. Though they were lost before Neanderthals and modern humans
diverged. Scientists are still not quite certain of their purpose, but they speculate that it apparently quickened the pace of an erection and is more common in promiscuous species (such as cats).

3. Fetuses can have erections! Male fetuses can have erection during the third trimester, according to ultrasound scans.
4. No brain is necessary for ejaculation: the order to ejaculate comes from the spinal cord, not the brain.
5. King of ancient tribes ate penises: In ancient tribes, the king would often eat the penis of his predecessor to apparently absorb his holy power.
This practice was allegedly banned by the ancient Hebrews.

6. Testifying on testicles: In pre-biblical times, men would swear on their own penises. The word “testify” is derived from a Roman legal practice of swearing on one’s testicles. The word “penis” comes from the Latin word for “tail”.
7. “Shaved” guardians in Muslim empires: In great Muslim empires, there would be a guardian assigned to each harem’s bed. The guardians had
to be “shaved,” which meant having his testicles and penis removed.

8. King Fatefehi of Tonga: between the years of 1770 and 1784, he apparently deflowered 37,800 women.
9. Diphallus is a rare condition that affects one in 5-6 million males. It’s when a man is born with two penises. Unfortunately, it’s rare that both are
fully functional, and it often comes in tandem with other deformities that also require surgery.

10. Penises can actually break: Every year, hundreds of men break their erect penis, researchers say. Most do so during “violent intercourse.” But there are also cases where men snap their member – indeed, specialists note that such incidents are accompanied by an audible crack – by falling out of bed with an erection. The
cure for a broken penis? Six weeks of bed rest with a penis splint.

11. Smoking can shorten your penis by as much as a centimeter. Erections are all about good bloodflow, and lighting up calcifies blood vessels,
stifling erectile circulation.

12. The foreskin has an abundance of Langerhans cells, which are immune cells that are infiltrated by HIV. This may explain why circumcised men in
Africa have a 60% lower rate of HIV infection from heterosexual intercourse.

13. A healthy male averages 11 erections per day-nine of them while asleep. After ejaculating, it can take him anywhere from two minutes to two weeks to achieve another erection.
14. From shower to grower: On average, a limp penis will increase in volume 300% when it is erect. It will also contain more than eight to ten
times its normal amount of blood.

15. Jonah Falcon, a 42-years-old man with a 9-inch penis (22.86 cm; 13.5 inches, or over 34 cm when hard). He’s the man with the world’s largest penis.
16. Animals with the biggest and smallest penises: the Blue Whale is the animal with the biggest recorded penis to date, at 8 feet (over 2m) long. The adult male elephant has the biggest recorded penis for land animals, at 6 feet (1.8288m, and S-shaped when erect). And coming in
with the smallest penis is the shrew, at .2 inches(0.5 cm).

17. Koro, a culture-specific syndrome, where a man (or a woman) is overcome with a debilitating fear that his penis (or her nipples) is shrinking
and will eventually disappear. Interestingly, this fear is borne out of no real proof or evidence. It is also known as “penis panic” and has been said to provoke mass hysteria.

18. Semen can cure depression: Apparently, semen contains chemicals that elevate mood, increase affection, induce sleep, and contain at least three antidepressants. It also contains
cortisol, which is known to increase affection; as well as estrone, which elevates mood; oxytocin, which also elevates mood; thyrotrophic-releasing hormone, which is another antidepressant; melatonin, which is a sleep aid; and serotonin, which is a well-known antidepressant neurotransmitter
