I cannot find any scientific studies supporting any technique for non-surgically increasing the size of one’s penis. Surgical procedures for doing so are not effective in increasing erect length. You can find many testimonials on the web that support jelqing, but also many cautionary notes.
As to penile size, Wikipedia states: “While results vary across studies, the consensus is that the mean human penis is approximately 12.9–15 cm (5.1–5.9 in) in length with a 95% confidence interval of (10.7 cm, 19.1 cm) (or, equivalently, 4.23 in, 7.53 in).[6][7][8] The typical girth or circumference is approximately 12.3 cm (4.85 in) when fully erect. The mean penis size is slightly greater than the median size.” Your measurements (and getting an accurate measurement is more difficult than you might think) are really quite average. I do not think that you have a physical issue. Note that it is males who are always concerned about penile size, not the women!
Hope this helps!

Hi,
I'm 45 and about the same size as you. I'm 5'5" 145lbs. and about 5 to 6" not that big around at about 4.5"
Jelqing can cause problems when done wrong or over used. Your process will be slow at a normal rate. It is important to warm the penis and to be gentile while milking the penis forcing blood into the erectile tissues. Over doing things causes small hemorages and could lead to ED or a lack of sensation. There is also the chance that you might tare the ligament while puling the penis in different directions. The main point is to be gentile.
I have been married for 20 years and my size has never been a problem for my wife. If there was an issue it is with me aout feeling smaller then others.
One time while I was over at my brother in law's at the farm, he a friend of his and I and my kids went for a skinny dip in the river. With my brother in law and the friend being about 6' or more, I was surprised to notice that I was better equiped then both of them.
Most women, my wife included can not reach orgasm by penile pentration alone. You can use your imagination to come up with different ways to pleasure each other to orgasm. Foreplay is a big part of it. Be yourself and relaxed when both of you are relaxed things will come natural. Take your time and don't be rushed.
Don't compare yourself to the other males, I have had one with 11" and the size of a pop can in girth. Sinse you and I are of smaller build, it would not be abnormal to be smaller below as well. My son is about 5'4 and is larger equiped then I. Over the years I have gained body fat making the penis appear to be smaller as well.
Due to neurological as well as medical problems I have suffered from ED for the last 9 years now. I can tell you that a functional smaller penis is better then a large linp noodle.
If you would like to talk about this I willing to listen and chat with you.
All the best.

Hi Doctor,
Also, would like to add some more information - other than the size, I have not had any other sexual problems pertaining to erection/ sensation/ sexual apetite. Just had a mild yeast infection once which got treated on using an anti-fungal ointment and a diet of yogurt.
