A man who believes he might have the 'world's smallest penis' has revealed the surprising diagnosis he was given by doctors.
Michael Phillips, from North Carolina, went to the doctor's earlier this year due to concerns about the size of his manhood.
He says that his penis is so small that he is unable to have sex and needs to sit down on the toilet to urinate.
It was after his doctor's appointment that he was informed he has a micropenis.
Phillips told the Sun: "I went to the doctor about four or five months ago with concerns over my penis size. I was informed there is a condition called a micropenis.
"I was referred to a urologist. I was always aware it had been small, but wasn't aware there was a condition for it.
"The main reason I went to the doctor was because my penis is actually too small to have sex at all."
Michael became aware that his penis might be smaller than average when he dated a girl at school.
After being mocked for it, he now says he has given up on dating and relationships.
The 36-year-old explained: "I have had a couple experiences of having sex and wasn't able to get it in and everything. From there I just stopped trying to date and lost interest in it."
But Michael has spied on opportunity with his uniquely-sized manhood, and is eyeing up a spot in the Guinness Book of World Records.
He told the Sun: "I was actually looking to see if there is a Guinness World Record for the smallest and see if I can enter for that.
"I try to turn a negative into a positive, so I’m trying to make everything a positive - so if I can get a title out of it then great."
Whilst he has considered enlargement surgery, these would only be able to "add about an inch, inch-and-a-half."
He added: "I’m thinking about it, but if that's all that I would be able to gain, then I would still be within the spectrum of a micropenis, so I’m not sure if it would be worth it. I’m still processing it all and have appointments to decide what my next move is.”
