Average penis size in Brazil 🇧🇷
What the published literature reports for Brazil, which study it comes from, and how much weight that figure can carry.
The figure
Stretched length · Brazil
14.5 cm

That's 1.57 cm above the worldwide average of 12.93 cm.
Higher than 78% of the 24 countries in the game.

The study behind it
The figure comes from Gabrich et al., J Pediatr (Rio J), 2007, which measured 84 men. Method: bone-pressed, measured.
Note the method. This study pressed the ruler into the pubic bone, which captures the buried portion of the shaft and records roughly a centimetre more than a study that rests the ruler on the skin — on the same man. A meaningful part of the distance between this row and the lower-ranked ones is that decision, not the populations.
With 84 men measured, this is one of the smaller samples in the game and the figure should be read as noisier than the rows resting on thousands.
How it compares
Brazil ranks #6 of the 24 countries in the game. That is 1.73 cm above the median of this list (12.77 cm).
Both of those comparisons are against a list of two dozen countries chosen by which studies exist, not by any sampling of the world. Treat the rank as a fact about this dataset rather than a fact about the planet.

What this figure is not
It is not a description of any individual man from Brazil. The spread between individual men inside a single country is several times larger than the gap between any two countries on this list, which means a national average carries almost no information about a person.
It is also not medical advice or a benchmark to measure yourself against. If size is something you have been worrying about, the guide on what the pooled data actually shows is a more useful page than this one, and a doctor is more useful than either.
