Ep. 69 Does Weight Gain Make the Penis Smaller in Teen Boys?
Description
It’s one of the most common—and least talked about—questions I get from teenage boys and their parents.
In this episode, I’m breaking down the real science behind penis size, puberty, and weight gain. You’ll learn the difference between a buried penis (when fat tissue hides the penis) and a truly small penis, and why many boys worry unnecessarily during puberty.
I also explain:
- When penis size actually changes (hint: it doesn’t before puberty!)
- Why extra belly fat can make the penis look smaller
- What to do if your teen is feeling anxious about their body
- When to see a doctor for evaluation

I’m Dr. Jenny Gourgari—pediatric endocrinologist, certified in obesity medicine and a health coach.
After helping hundreds of teens struggling with their weight and hormones, I’ve created a whole new path by doing what most programs miss: balance puberty hormones naturally and create habits that actually last.
Here's what makes this different:
✅ No dieting. No calorie counting. No shame.
✅ No more food fights between parents and teens.
✅ No weight obsession—just healthy habits
✅ Real science behind how puberty hormones affect weight
✅ A safe, supportive approach that prevents eating disorders
Because when teens understand their hormones and get the right support, they don’t just lose weight—they gain strength, energy, confidence, and freedom!
