As surreal as it may sound, I recently experience that my penis is shrinking. At times it is uncomfortable and I am then aware of its "shrunken" state.
I am cut and normally a healthy shower rather than a grower, but lately my penis glans (head) is covered with foreskin and the base with tracked.
It is even difficult to urinate, as I have to "dig" to get the head out. I have eliminated cold weather and medication, as possible causes.
My concerns are - could there be any underlying health factors, that I should be concerned about?
Your comments, as always are appreciated.

Weight gain makes the exposed amount of your penis, whether soft or hard, less than if you weight less. However, it sounds like a pretty significant difference in a short amount of time, the kind of weight gain to cause this probably isn't possible and I think you would notice that much more easily than you would the size of your penis, unless you were already very overweight.

You said you ruled out medication, but drugs, alcohol, and nicotine all have the potential to cause shrinkage.

The size of your flaccid penis can also change depending on how you feel. If you have a cold you'll probably shrink down, though a fever will usually have the opposite effect. If you are sad, or anxious then you could experience shrinkage as well. Getting mad seems to have an effect as well, though for me I notice it can go in either direction. Probably the most significant thought that can affect this, though, is dwelling on the idea that your penis is shrinking. The power of suggestion is a real thing and you are more capable of convincing yourself than anyone else. You could literally be willing your penis smaller.

Its also possible that you have some issue that is impacting circulation. If your circulation is poor then that means less blood to fill your penis, even when we're talking about a soft penis. If its a real problem then you would probably notice coldness or numbness in all your extremities, especially your feet and toes.

You also need to consider that as we age or flaccid size tends to decrease. That should be such a gradual process, though, that you wouldn't notice it in the way you described.

I would try not to think about it and I bet you'll find that things get back to normal.

If you are not have regular erection and oxygenating the penis it will start to shrink. Also very low testosterone levels can also have a shrinking effect. I would seek professional help. Get your doctor to see if there is some reason for the changes. Don't let him brush it off as just being in your head. If he does find another doctor who will take you seriously

Damn if I can see it LOL. That's a nice cock. Maybe not as hard as it was, when you were forty but the dick is still there. If it were to get as hard as it did back then it would be just as big
