Is Penis Odor a Sign of a Medical Condition?

September 6, 2017

Rank and persistent penis odor is an unfortunately common condition and often is due to improper attention to penis care, particularly in the area of hygiene. However, sometimes a persistent penis odor, especially one accompanied by urinary stench, may herald a medical condition which will need to be attended to.

If a man pays proper attention to his hygiene issues and still has a persistent penis odor problem, it pays to bring this to the attention of his doctor. The doctor can then see if an underlying or co-existing medical condition may be the problem.

Some of the issues the doctor may investigate are:

- A sexually-transmitted infection (STI). A strong penis odor can sometimes be linked to an STI, which will of course need to be seen to immediately. Among the STIs for which penis odor may be a "marker" are chlamydia and gonorrhea. Most of the time, penis odor by itself is not a symptom of an STI; it is much more likely to be found along with a discharge or with pain during urination. However, it is better to be safe than sorry.

- Anaerobic infection. Anaerobic infections are fairly rare in the penis, but they do occasionally occur there. These infections are caused by a bacteria called an anaerobe, and it really only thrives in areas in which little or no oxygen is present. Some of the more popular conditions caused by anaerobes are gangrene, tetanus and botulism. If an anaerobic infection occurs in the penis, it is likely to indicate that there is dead tissue in the organ, and that can be very serious indeed. Again and fortunately, such infections rarely occur in the penis.

- Dehydration. Sometimes penis odor results from a urinary condition, often from simple dehydration or lack of sufficient water. Often urine-related penis odor is due to consumption of foods with a particularly strong odor. If the urine in which these foods are passed has a high water concentration, it can dilute the strong aroma more effectively. When a man has not consumed enough water, there is less water in the urine to act as a diluter, and therefore a stronger odor.

- Diabetes. When well managed, diabetes tends not to produce its own penis odor issue. But poorly managed diabetes may result in excess glucose (sugar) intruding upon the urinary system. The excess sugar thickens the urine and also produces a sugary odor that sounds pleasant in theory but is actually quite off-putting in practice.

- A bladder condition. As part of the urinary system, issues that arise in the bladder can affect the urine content, which can in turn produce penis odor. An infection is the most common bladder issue of this sort, but sometimes a condition called a fistula may arise. This means that the bladder and the intestines develop an improper connection which produces a bacterial overflow. Fistulas often require surgery.

Because penis odor can be a deal-breaker with many partners, men want to seek prompt attention for any medical condition that may be responsible for the issue. In addition, they should make it part of their daily health regimen to apply a first rate penis health crème (health professionals recommend Man1 Man Oil, which is clinically proven mild and safe for skin) . Not just any crème will do; first, be sure that the crème’s ingredients list includes vitamin A. Also called retinol, vitamin A has wonderful antibacterial properties that can attack some of the bacteria most often responsible for a strong penis odor. It also pays to find a crème that contains alpha lipoic acid. As a potent antioxidant, alpha lipoic acid battles free radicals that can cause oxidative stress. By keeping free radicals away, penis skin is stronger and more likely to resist odor-causing ingredients.

 

Why Penis Dry Rubbing is a Bad Idea

September 5, 2017

When a man is in the mood to get it on, whether with himself or with a partner, he might have a particular way he likes to do things.

The result can be explosive, but it can also be detrimental to penis health. Part of good penis care is understanding how this practice can hurt the penis and finding alternate ways to enjoy the sensation b...
