Like i said, i'm hoping my penis will return to it's former size when my treatment ends.
It's nice that you are optimistic, however, considering the lack of information on what exactly is causing this effect, we cannot posit any mechanisms by which it may abate. Penile and testicular atrophy in steroid users can be permanent.
Notify your doctor and request a serum profile for:
-blood count
-triglyceride and cholesterol levels
-luteinizing hormone
-prolactin
-thyroid stimulating hormone
-estradiol
-testosterone (free and binded)
-dihydrotestosterone (dht)
-3alpha-androstanediol glucuronide (he might refuse to do this one if he is aware that Accutane reduces 5-AR activity)
-vitamin a (retinol)
Do you notice a decrease in the size of the penis when flaccid or erect? Do you experience any other symptoms, e.g. coldness or firmness of the penile body tissue when flaccid?
Have you noticed any other side-effects, like the ones I list in my signature?

You just loss your libido for a while nothing to worry i doubt it shrinks prob just doesnt give proper errection,i guess your just not getting the appropriate amount of blood flow but dont worry everything will be fine by itself soon,i had the same problem but its normal.
well if its noticibly smaller when errect then u shud worry. if its just smaller when its...not errect then dont worry. and call male doctor or just ask for a male derm.
btw...EVERYBODY STOP TRYING TO BLAME EVERY TEENY TINY CHANGE IN YOU AFTER ACCUTANE ON THE DRUG! for god sakes people naturaly change. people are just very dynamic emotionally u probably wud change whther u took the damn thing or not. and because alot of us are still young teen-young adults we're still growing and shit so of course bodies are gonna change. anyway. yeah. wateva.
