Is a 4.5-inch penis big?

A little below the average, and within the normal range: 15.4% of men measure this or less.

If it is the soft length

Measured soft, 4.5″ is longer than 92.6% of flaccid penises. Flaccid size says little about erect size, though: some grow a lot when hard, some barely.

Girth and condom size

Length does not decide condom size; girth does. At the average erect girth of 11.7 cm (4.6 in), a condom about 53 mm wide fits. Your own girth gives your own size. Condom size calculator →
