This study says so:
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5028213/
>Despite the small number of subjects, this study shows that NMC was associated with shorter penile length. Second to fourth digit ratio, flaccid penile length, and age of circumcision were also significant predictive factors for erectile penile length. Further multicentre studies with larger number of subjects and biochemical analyses are needed for potential clinical applicability.
But then according to Healthline:

>Penis size is also based on blood flow to the penile tissues. Removing a layer of skin tissue — the foreskin — doesn’t have any impact on other penile tissues or how big your penis appears when erect. However, it may have slightly less “bulk” when it’s flaccid.
So which is it? I'm pretty confused and slightly pissed that my parents might've costed me a few mm on my benis, but my circumcision isn't tight and there's a bit amount of extra skin. So maybe I haven't lost any size at all?
