Original Note:
Infantile micro-penis is not dictated by the mother. It is usually caused by hypogonadotropic hypogonadism. This happens when the male fetal brain does not make enough testosterone on its own. https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/17955-micropenis#:~:text=In%20adults%2C%20a%20penis%20that,(present%20at%20birth)%20conditions. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3890219/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5597951/ As mothers produce little testosterone, this claim is false.
