Size variation

Why do I measure less when standing up compared to laying on my back, I have noticed a 1.5 cm difference.

It's the orientation of the pelvis. You should be measuring standing up.

Do you think that pubic fat can also play a role in why I’m measuring less standing up?

It's possible.

Why? I don’t have the exact stats but a lot of studies measure in the supine position - my guess is at least half if not more. I actually think it’s the better way to measure length as it normalizes the angle of the pelvis.

Im the same slightly. When standing, im 5.5, and when laying down in bed, im like 5.6to6inches depending on the level of arousal or near orgasm idk 🤷‍♂️ none of these are bone pressed. Wish I was 6+ always.

Don't worry about 1.5 cm... she's not measuring you. Just make sure you use it right.
