How many guys got naked and suddenly found a foul odor assaulting their nostrils? “Can it really be me?” they think, and all too often it is. Severe penis odor is a major hindrance for potential partners and partners, and a very common penis health problem. And for many men, the smell of the penis is especially strong after sex. For these men, taking steps to decrease or eliminate penis odor after sex can make a big difference in the overall attractiveness of their penis.
Makes sense
Of course, it makes sense for a penis to have a certain smell around it. After all, for too many hours a day, the average penis is kept locked behind not one, but two layers of clothing. And often one or both layers are very tight. This creates a situation where heat builds up, followed by sweat, which activates bacteria that cause unpleasant smells. The layer of pubic hair and ball hair also provides increased insulation, increasing the heat quotient and the resulting sweat.
In other words, a man already enters a sexual situation with the potential to be too mature in the scent department of the penis. Several things happen during sex that can exacerbate the problem.
– More heat. There is a reason why sex is often classified as “hot and heavy” when it is intense. Significant heat is often generated during sex, especially penetrative sex. And since the penis is generally in a closed situation, inside a vagina or anus, that only adds to the heat and sweat.
– The smell of another person. Also, during sexual intercourse, the penis comes into direct skin-to-skin contact with someone else’s body odors. Bacteria from you are transmitted to the penis. Also, in many cases, there may be other factors, such as a vaginal yeast infection, that can significantly aggravate the odor problem.
– fluids. And of course, fluid exchanges come with their own scents. Whether a man’s semen dries on the penis or his partner’s vaginal fluids, they can aggravate the problem of penis odor.
Steps to follow
So what are some common sense steps to help decrease post-se penis odor?
– Start clean. The less the smell of penis is added to sex, the less it is eliminated after sex. Practice good general rules of penis hygiene, such as regular washing, even under the foreskin, for intact men. Before your appointment, put on clean clothes, including underwear.
– Consider shaving. Many men who shave the pubic area report that the odor from the penis is less persistent. This may be because less insulation causes less heat, but thick hair is also likely to trap and retain more odors overall.
– Use a condom. A condom not only helps prevent the spread of sexually transmitted infections, it also prevents many odor-causing bacteria from coming into contact with the skin of the penis. It won’t absorb them all, but it should help.
– Finish clean. A man does not need to jump out of bed and run to the bathroom as soon as he has completed his sexual mission, but he does need to make sure to wash thoroughly before dressing again or falling asleep. Washing off post-sex odors as soon as possible is the best way to keep them from burying and settling in your midsection.
– Protect yourself from the smell of penis after sex by regularly applying a penis health cream to the top drawer (Health professionals recommend Man 1 Man Oil, which is clinically proven to be gentle and safe for the skin). To be most effective, the cream must come in contact with vitamin A, which has antibacterial properties that can combat lingering odor from the penis. It is also wise to select a cream with a powerful antioxidant, of which alpha lipoic acid is excellent. The antioxidant helps to strengthen the skin of the penis by fighting the elements that cause oxidative damage to the skin.
