Some health trends spark curiosity the moment they appear online, and this one is no different. People have been buzzing about something called “Ozempic penis,” and celebrity surgeon Dr. Terry Dubrow has now added fuel to the conversation. His comments came during a lighthearted chat on a podcast with his wife, Heather.
The topic started when Dr. Dubrow insisted the term is “a thing,” despite how strange it sounds. Heather guessed it meant trouble in the bedroom, but Terry quickly corrected her. Instead, he claimed some men notice their private area looks bigger after weight loss.

The turning point came when he explained the idea behind it. According to him, losing weight can reduce fat around the groin, revealing more of what was already there. He compared it to something doctors call “buried penis syndrome,” which affects very overweight men who can’t fully see their anatomy.
Terry joked that weight loss makes some men “more of a shower,” calling it a good thing. Heather playfully complained that women don’t get the same bonus, pointing to her previous concerns about “Ozempic vulva” and the discomfort some women report. Even so, she admitted she was curious to see whether her husband had his own “before and after.”
Still, Dr. Dubrow made one point very clear: Ozempic does not make anything physically bigger. It only changes how it appears, much like how weight loss can change body proportions. Medical experts agree that the effect is visual, not an actual increase in size.
In the end, the story is less about magic results and more about simple changes that come with losing weight. And as with any trend, it’s a reminder to look past the buzz and focus on real health.
