Recently came across this article via Andrew Sullivan. They measured the stretched flaccid penile length, circumference at the base, and testicular volume with a Prader orchidometer for 6,200 subjects age 0-19.

The data for 19-year-olds was:

Length mean 9.46 cm (3.72 inches), SD 1.12, 5th percentile 8.00, 95 percentile 11.00.

Circumference mean 9.67 cm (3.84 inches), SD 0.91, 5th percentile 8.20, 95th percentile 11.35

Right testicular volume mean 16.56 mL, SD 4.39, 5th percentile 10.00, 95th percentile 25.00

Left testicular volume mean 15.99 mL, SD 4.52, 5th percentile 10.00, 95th percentile 25.00
