Although many men think that a loss of penis sensitivity is not something that can happen until older age, it is an increasingly large problem in younger men. In fact, almost 87% of men report a loss of some degree of penis sensitivity by the time they are in their late 30s. Although penile sensitivity may be maintained, and cases of diminished penis sensitivity treated, with the use of a penis health creme it is important to understand exactly what are the major causes that contribute to this loss of penis sensation.
Major Causes of Loss of, or Diminished, Penis Sensitivity
- Aggressive Sex - overly aggressive sex is one of the main causes of a loss of penile sensitivity. This can take the form of dry intercourse or simply frequent sex that is energetic and overly physical. Although fine in the short term, over time these sex acts can begin to “toughen” penis skin, causing a loss of sensitivity
- Excessive masturbation - similarly, an excessive amount of masturbation can cause damage to the penile skin cell neurons. This will lead to diminished sensitivity and, eventually, a diminished sense of pleasure during sexual experiences.
- Certain sports - forms of exercise like bike riding can leave the perineum damaged and, over time, affect penis sensation. Indeed, one such study discovered that 61% of men who ride a bike regularly experience some form of numbness in the penis region. Of course, nobody is suggesting the elimination of exercise, but it is a good idea to change routines regularly and avoid extended periods of bicycle riding
- Brain chemistry - In some men, chemical imbalances in the brain can lead to adverse effects including numbness in the penile area. For example, an excessive amount of serotonin in the brain can lead many men to experience some loss of sensitivity in their penis. This particular symptom can be tackled by changing the levels of certain chemicals in the brain with drugs (by taking a supplement of dopamine, for example), but this should always be checked with a doctor first
- Tight underwear - In the same way that dry intercourse or dry masturbation can damage the cell’s neurons of the penis, wearing tight clothes can cause restrictions in blood flow which end up damaging the penis cells. Men should consider the type of underwear they wear to avoid this problem which is why most health professionals recommend boxer shorts.
- Excessive smoking and drinking - alcohol and tobacco have also been proven to have a restrictive effect on capillaries and veins carrying blood to various areas of the body, including the penis. This restriction can lead to loss of penile sensitivity, so cutting down on these bad habits will improve the overall sensitivity of the penis.
How Do You Fight Against Penile Sensitivity Loss?
Most importantly, in order to increase penis sensitivity, it is necessary to change sexual habits. Eliminate “dry” masturbation and “dry” intercourse, aggressive sex, and other factors that can lead to diminished penile sensitivity. Once the causes of penis sensitivity loss have been removed there are a number of ways men can improve the sensitivity of their penis. It can be useful to use new tactile tools in order to increase penile sensitivity, such as feathers. A simple stroking of the penis region with a feather will, over time, bring about penile response to a lighter, more sensitive touch and dramatically increase the sensitivity of the penis within as quickly at five or six months. Touching other areas of the body before intercourse is also a great technique - not only will it make the penis become more sensitive but it will also cause overall love making experience to be more erotic and fulfilling. Also use of a penis health crème can not only restore lost penis sensation but, if used regularly, can prevent loss of sensation to begin with. Although there are numerous skin conditioners on the market (most health professionals recommend Man1 Man Oil) it is important to use a crème that contains penis specific vitamins and minerals.
