Every man knows that maintaining penis sensitivity is of the utmost importance. The more sensitive the penis - in most cases - the more enjoyment a man will get out of the use of his penis in sensual activity. There are many ways to help ensure that penis sensation stays at an optimum level, including ensuring that the best penis care regimen is followed every single day.

Preserving Penis Sensitivity

But unfortunately, a man might be doing things in the course of his day-to-day life that...

Most people have experienced that sensation of having their arm or leg "fall asleep" - that is, to have a numbness or a tingling because they’ve been placing too much weight or pressure on it. But most men don’t know that the same thing can happen to the penis as well, dulling the wanted penis sensation that makes having a penis so much fun. It’s rare that it happens from too much pressure, but sometimes penis sensation can be impacted in a similar way by something called paresthesia. ...

Cycling is one of the best ways to get regular exercise, and that’s good for a man’s health. That said, cyclists are at risk when it comes to penis health. Some researchers are pointing to evidence that cycling (and spinning is included here) is a potential cause of erectile dysfunction. So, are all those miles a man does every day taking a toll on his sex life? Let’s find out.

What Is Erectile Dysfunction?

First, let’s define erectile dysfunction (ED). ED is actually very common; it...

Clearly, there are numerous reasons to practice appropriate penis health strategies, including the fact that a healthier penis is likely to simply function on a more acceptable level. Penis health includes maintaining penis sensation at a level such that the physical manipulation of the penis, by whatever means, produces pleasurable reactions in a man. Of course, as with other aspects of the organ, penis sensation can be diminished – so guys are encouraged to follow these tips which can hel...

Unfortunately, decreased Male Organ sensation is an inevitable certainty for most men. Simple aging can often lead many men to long for their members of old: members that stood hard and steadfast, and often were accompanied by a low refractory period between intimate encounters or solo-love. Don't believe it? Look at all of the money spent each year to reverse the loss of sensation in the male organ! Male performance aids, some more exotic in origin, are popped like Hubba Bubba in hopes that ...

What’s going on downstairs can tell a man a lot about what’s going on in his body as a whole. When dealing with a loss of penile sensation, there are several things that could be at work. Some causes can be easily remedied, but others can be more serious and require medical attention. Also, take note that numbness can also be accompanied by other symptoms like pins-and-needles, coldness in the penis, color change, or an additional loss of sensation in the testicles and perineum. Be sure ...

Diminished penile sensation is something most men face in their lives. Losing that loving feeling may be inevitable in some cases, but in most, things can be done to improve sensitivity and regain some, if not all, sensation in the privates. If a man is experiencing loss of sensation in the penis, first he should identify what is causing it. Once a cause is identified, he can take specific steps to regain sensation. Here are a few of the most common causes of penile sensation loss and a few ...

Lack of penile sensitivity seems to be an inevitable fact of life for men. Looking at the television, in magazines, or in talks at the neighborhood barbeque, penile sensation loss is a topic of conversation. Sprays and gels are available that are intended to increase sensitivity, but they don’t always work. However, there are other ways to increase penile sensitivity besides relying on expensive medications. Some causes have reasonable fixes such as lifestyle changes, while others can be m...

Proper penis sensation is absolutely crucial for enjoyment of sexual activities, whether they involve a partner or one’s own hand. Most of the time, paying adequate attention to one’s penis health helps to ensure no diminishment in penis sensation. There are, of course, issues outside the general realm of penis health that could still impact the penis and its sensitivity - and something called paresthesia is one of these.

About paresthesia

The National Institute of Neurological Disor...

Penis sensation is a crucial factor in a man’s enjoyment of sex, whether with a partner or with his own hand. In general, the more sensation the penis experiences when touched, the more pleasurable the sexual experience is likely to be. (Of course, finding a way to keep the high level of penis sensation from bringing about premature ejaculation can sometimes become a challenge, but that’s a different matter.) Sometimes, unfortunately, men experience an unwanted loss of penis sensation, w...

There are many articles out there about penis sensation, but few of them answer the fundamental question: Just what is really good penis sensation? After all, a guy only knows what he feels - he has no idea what his best friend or neighbor feels when it comes to penis sensitivity. Given that, how can he know if he has adequate penis sensation in the first place?

Of course, a man can usually tell when his penis sensation begins to decrease from what it was in the beginning. He might find th...

When it comes to penis sensation, most men would be quite happy to have more of it. That’s why there are so many products on the market that claim to help build a man’s penis sensitivity or provide new ways for him to get that "first time feeling" kind of rush. Many men will even change their penis care regimen to include far-fetched ideas that might increase sensation, even the slightest bit.

However, there are some men on the other side of the spectrum that deal with far too much sen...

Most men are well aware that penis sensation matters a great deal. It’s what makes anything sexual feel so wonderful - from the feather-light touches of a partner to the more heavy-handed use of their own hand for masturbation, all the sensation a man feels relies on the nerve endings in the penis. Those nerve endings provide penis sensation that can give a man the heights of pleasure. But many men don’t know just how much of an impact proper penis care can have on penis sensitivity. Her...

Most guys know their penis really well, and as such they are probably sure they have felt almost every penis sensation possible. But what happens when their penis suddenly begins tingling? That’s a sensation that most men haven’t felt before, and for good reason - tingling can often mean something negative. In addition to keeping up with a great penis care regimen, a man should always be on the lookout for sensations that don’t make sense, like the tingling that might signal penis prob...

It’s somewhat ironic that as our culture has become ever more obsessed with physical appearance, and with a renewed emphasis on gyms and diets, that obesity has continued to grow as a problem for so many people. It’s common knowledge nowadays that obesity can be a significant deterrent to general health, but it also can have an impact on penis health. For example, a man who suffers from obesity may also find he is experiencing a loss in penis sensation levels - and that can keep him from...

When a man begins to lose penis sensation, he very well might panic a bit. But it’s important to remember two things: first, that loss of penis sensitivity happens more often with age, and second, that it can be reversed through careful attention to a few new penis care techniques. Here’s what a man needs to know to get his mojo back.

Why does a guy lose penis sensation?

There can be many reasons why a man loses penis sensitivity. In most cases, the problem can be traced back to over...

When a man practices expert penis care, he wants to show off his manhood and everything it is capable of to a willing partner. Intercourse is usually the preferred way of doing this, but sometimes a guy finds that typical sex positions, such as missionary or doggy, don’t produce the kind of fantastic penis sensation that he desires (and deserves). If that’s the case, he needs to talk with his partner about expanding the range of sex positions they use. And why not? Trying something new m...

In most cases, men who suffer a slight loss of penis sensation can take a few good penis care tips to heart and gradually restore their penis sensitivity. But what about those who are suffering from severe sensation loss? For those men, the idea of surgery to restore penis sensation is not far-fetched. In fact, they might choose to eagerly go under the knife if it means they again get to feel the pleasures their body was designed to feel.

On the other hand, any surgery is risky, but especi...

While many men worry about losing penis sensitivity and strive to do everything they can to improve penis sensation throughout their lives, there are some men who have the opposite problem: Their penis sensitivity is so high that they have trouble in their day-to-day sexual lives, and sometimes even in their day-to-day lives outside the bedroom. For these men, penis care looks a little different. Here’s what a guy needs to know if he notices that penis sensation is far more intense than wh...

Every man knows that penis skin is quite sensitive. It has to be in order to provide the vivid sensations a guy feels when he’s engaged in sensual activity of any kind. That’s one of the reasons why a guy will always pay good attention to proper penis care - to keep the health of his penis skin top-notch.

But over time, penis sensation seems to become a little dulled. Things that once brought a man to the heights of ecstasy now just don’t have that same "zing" he’s used to feeling....

Every man agrees: Masturbation is fun. And doctors agree that masturbation is a strong element of good penis care. But for some men, masturbation crosses the line from being a fun activity that’s good for the body into becoming an obsession. A man who masturbates excessively can eventually face several issues that eventually make his day-to-day life difficult.

Signs of a masturbation problem

A man might have a serious problem with excessive masturbation if he notices any of the followi...

Protecting the penis from loss of sensation should be the goal of any man who wants to live an active, enjoyable sex life for the rest of his days. But unfortunately, though a man applies the best possible penis care and does what he thinks are all the right things, he might still suffer from loss of penis sensation. The problem lies in the fact that sometimes, the everyday things that a man does happen to slowly diminish penis sensation, until there is a marked difference in how his penis r...

When something goes wrong with the body, the owner of that body tends to think about it all the time. From dry skin to medical conditions to something as simple as that pimple in an odd place, it’s not unusual at all to obsess about whatever might be going wrong. When it comes to penis sensitivity, a man who knows that his sensation is diminished might take extra time with penis care, scour the internet to find articles on what to do to help the situation, and look high and low for remedie...

It’s something many guys simply take for granted: penis sensitivity. After all, they’ve had years of experiencing that intense sensation whenever the penis is touched, whether by themselves or by someone else. It always feels so good that most guys don’t think there could ever be a deadening or diminishment of penis sensitivity and sensation, or that there are penis health steps they can take to keep that intense sensation feeling lively.

Of course, there are steps, things a guy can ...

Every man wants to have great penis sensation. That’s one of the reasons why a guy will invest a great deal of time in good penis care, making sure he has done everything in his power to preserve the great penis sensitivity that makes his personal life so pleasurable. But some men want to enhance what they already have, which often means looking into penis sensitivity training.

Penis sensitivity is something a guy takes for granted - until one day he finds that he’s suffered a loss in this area. Penis health is crucial for continuing penis sensitivity at the appropriate level, but when a loss occurs, it may take some time to determine what alterations to a routine are needed. Knowing how to handle a loss of penis sensitivity enables a man to better deal with the situation.

Determine the cause

The first thing to do is to find out what may have led to this los...

By now every man knows smoking is bad for him. Though it might look attractive on the big screen, smoking in real life has serious consequences. Not only can it lead to yellowed nails, much faster aging and of course, serious health complications from all that tar pulled into the lungs, a man might find that penis problems result as well. Even with the best penis care, a man who smokes is much more likely to lose penis sensitivity - and depending upon how long he smokes, this disappointing c...

Losing penis sensitivity is a fear of every man, and unfortunately, science has shown that penis sensitivity does often go on a downhill slide as a man ages. The use of a top-quality penis health crème and excellent daily penis care can help a man maintain sensitivity for as long as possible. However, there are some men who might deal with a decrease in sensitivity quite early in life; this is known as Reduced Penis Sensation, or RPS.

What is RPS?

RPS is exactly what it sounds like - th...

For most men, the penis can be a wonderful source of pleasure. Sex and intimacy can bring a man much closer to his partner, provide relief of tension and stress, and simply make him feel good. Many men connect their ‘manliness’ to that pleasure. So when, in spite of the best efforts at penis care, something goes wrong, and penile nerve damage wreaks havoc on a man’s personal life, it can feel as though the whole world is crashing down.

Though there might be many reasons for the loss ...

The sensation that is associated with touching the penis, especially when it is in an erect state, is an undeniable pleasure, especially for younger men in the peak of their sexual period. Penis sensitivity is absolutely crucial to the degree of pleasure experienced during the male orgasm. Practicing proper penis care helps to keep that penis sensitivity operating at a level that guarantees delight and satisfaction - but sometimes there can be a diminishing of sensation nonetheless.

It’s...

For a sexually active man, the degree of penis sensation has a clear and direct impact on the amount of pleasure he derives from any form of sex. When the degree of penis sensation is high, the sensitivity in his manhood creates sublime and ecstatic feelings that can lead to very satisfying releases. But when the degree is diminished, the pleasure factor is negatively impacted. The experience is still enjoyable, but a man feels like something is missing. In such a situation, tips for proper ...

The penis is a tremendous source of erotic pleasure for most men, and the tactile sensations it is capable of experiencing are vital to the overall sexual experience. However, not all parts of the manhood are created equal when it comes to penis sensation. Getting to know the most sensitive parts and how to stimulate them can greatly enhance a man’s pleasure. On the other hand, when loss of penile sensitivity - a common issue - gets in the way of sensual enjoyment, the right approach to pe...

Loss of penis feeling can creep up over time. A man may enjoy his own hand or the body of a partner for years before he notices that the techniques that once felt great no longer give him much pleasure. In many instances, the sensation loss may be so pronounced that he is unable to feel anything at all. This realization can be devastating, as sexual gratification is an important part of every man’s life. To make matters worse, it is often a man’s personal habits that lead to this loss of...

The vast majority of men report that they have reduced penis sensation over time - and not just older men; even guys in their late teens and early twenties often complain that things just don’t feel as good as they used to. Given the prevalence of the problem, it may seem inevitable. Some men may resign themselves to a future without hope of the pleasurable sensations they once enjoyed. What these men should realize is that they could be missing out on some important aspects of penis care ...

Whether things are getting a little stale in the bedroom or a man is just looking for new experiences, experimenting with sex positions can be a real treat. One of the nicer things a man can do for his lover, aside from following a penis care regimen that keeps the rod smooth and supple, is to surprise her with some tantalizing new tricks. The following sex positions have unique benefits for both partners and can contribute to a more exciting sex life.

1) Coital Alignment Technique (CAT)

The occasional quickie can be completely satisfying, but an inability to control ejaculation on a regular basis can result in significant frustration for both partners. This makes ejaculation control an important aspect of penis care. The causes of early ejaculation are many and varied, ranging from heightened penis sensation to poor muscle control. Learning how to control the moment of climax can help men prolong their pleasure, satisfy their partners and avoid the frustrations involved in ...

Guys like to dress sharp and show off their assets to potential partners, but in some cases, their sartorial choices can have a negative effect on their penis sensitivity. Certain types of clothing may cause a small but perceptible loss of sensation in the member - and that's something all men want to avoid to protect their penis health.

Penis sensitivity

For many men, "penis sensitivity" means that their penis is perhaps too sensitive: the intense feelings that stimulation provides resu...

While some men struggle with an overly sensitive penis, resulting in hasty sex sessions, others experience the opposite phenomenon: reduced penis sensation. This may occur gradually over time or with a sudden onset. Depending on the level of desensitization, a man may find it difficult or impossible to become erect or achieve orgasm. Reduced sensation and other penis health issues can result in relationship problems and a lower quality of life, since sexual pleasure is a precious component o...

When a man is described as "sensitive," he may take it as an insult; most guys don’t want to be thought of as weak or touchy. But, when a man's penis is sensitive, that's an entirely different matter. After all, men who have an organ that is responsive tend to enjoy sex a little more, and they might be more likely to give their partners rides they won't forget. That's why it's so important for me to learn more about why men often lose some degree of penis sensation, and what sorts of penis...

On the surface, masturbation seems relatively simple. Guys who want to get a little private pleasure can just grab on and get moving. In reality, however, a few steps done the wrong way can do a lot of damage to a man's vital organ, and that could result in diminished penis health; in fact, the wrong approach can lead to loss of sensation, a problem no man wants to experience. That's why it pays to learn more about what a guy should do, and what he should avoid, when he's getting in some pri...

Penile sensation loss can be a devastating problem, especially in younger men who envision a lifetime without sexual enjoyment. Loss of sensitivity in the penis can be caused by a number of issues - both physiological and psychological. In some cases, a nerve disorder may be at fault for the decreased sensation. While men should work with their doctors to determine the underlying problem, the conditions described here can help men to understand how the nerves may be linked to loss of sensiti...

Thanks to an increasing awareness of the importance of personal care, men are more frequently seeking products that can help them increase their overall health. One part of the body that receives the most attention in terms of care and grooming is, of course, a guy’s favorite appendage, and nearly all men are willing to pony up some cash when they come across products that are designed to support better penis health and function. Men who follow the latest research might know that a penis h...

Daily life can be unkind to the penis. Years of rough handling, environmental exposure, and the effects of gravity have a cumulative effect, causing the delicate tissue to lose elasticity and develop a thick layer of keratin. Over time, the penis can feel less like an instrument of pleasure and more like a superfluous appendage that doesn’t quite respond the way it once did. Sex might still feel pretty good, but it may not provide the same degree of pleasurable sensation. Thankfully, men d...

Let's face it: Virtually every man can benefit from a quality penis health crème that is designed especially for the needs of the penile tissue. However, there are specific subsets of men who absolutely, positively should use a targeted penis health care product as part of their daily personal care regimen. For these guys, adding this vital step could mean the difference between loss of penis sensation and a healthy, responsive tool. Here’s a bit of information about who can benefit the m...

The Internet has opened up a whole new world of opportunity for men who enjoy a little adult viewing from time to time; but as with anything else, too much of a good thing can lead to unexpected and unwanted consequences. A little porn can be titillating; it can offer a guy an outlet for stress, and it can fill in the gaps when there is no willing partner around. On the other hand, a LOT of porn can cause significant problems, ranging from loss of interest in real, physical partners to overa...

It’s a simple - and unfortunate - fact of life that as a natural effect of aging, various parts of the body stop responding the way they used to. A guy may find himself needing reading glasses after years of perfect vision, or having to go to the gym three times a week to keep those love handles off when just a few short years ago he could eat anything he wanted to and not gain a pound. Perhaps the worst realization a man can have is that his twig and berries aren’t working the way they ...

For women, the prospect of a spa day means hours of pampering of the skin, as well as a chance to unwind and release their tension in a peaceful, relaxing atmosphere. A day spent like this can leave them feeling vibrant, attractive and youthful. Sadly, although the skin of the penis is subject to some pretty rough handling from day to day, the average spa does not offer this type of luxurious service for the male anatomy. While it may not seem fair, this doesn’t mean that men can’t enjoy...

Chocolate, diamonds and red roses are the traditional gifts a guy gives his girl when Valentine's Day rolls around. Any or all of these little goodies might earn a guy a squeal of delight and a peck on the cheek. But chances are, a really romantic girl would rather have something a bit more personal to celebrate Cupid's big day. Specifically, most ladies would love to have a strong partner who has a strong, responsive penis. Proper penis care could allow a man to boost penis sensation and ma...

In recent years, the customary practice of circumcising male infants has come into question, with critics arguing that it is an unnecessary surgery that results in loss of penis sensation. There may be some validity to this argument, because an exposed glans is more likely to develop thicker, less-responsive skin as a result of exposure to clothing and the environment. For men who want the experience of having an intact prepuce, foreskin restoration may be an option. Supporters believe that ...

In spite of all of the current research that points to unhealthy living as the underlying cause of a multitude of health problems, obesity rates continue to soar, especially among younger generations. Admittedly, it can be extraordinarily difficult to change habits that are learned early on, and even individuals who are motivated to lose weight and get healthy may struggle with this process. However, it is important for men and women alike to understand how their lifestyle can affect their o...

Men with little to no penis sensation can feel as though they're trapped in a nightmare. Soft and sweet touches bring them no pleasure, and getting off often means spiking the nerves with pain. The situation can be so dire that some men consider subjecting their tissues to a surgeon's knife, in the desperate hope that they can regain at least some of what's been lost.

While some surgeries might be unavoidable, many men who have lost some degree of penis sensation can get relief with no cut...

If 100 men were polled about their sex lives and asked what would make it better, it’s not too hard to imagine what types of things would be on that list. Most men desire to have a bigger penis, last longer in bed, be ready for back-to-back romps in the hay, and achieve mind-blowing orgasms for themselves - and hopefully their partners - each and every time they slip between the sheets. Ironically, much of that can be achieved by the average man if he simply spends a little more time carin...

The question of whether circumcision has any medical benefit is a contentious topic. Opponents of the procedure often view the surgical ablation of the foreskin as mutilation that leaves a man with only a partially-functioning member, while those in favor point out that circumcision can reduce the risk of serious disease, as well as making it easier to maintain adequate personal hygiene. In either case, the right penis care can make all the difference when it comes to a healthy and happy man...

For many men - and women - depression can be severely debilitating, affecting all aspects of life. Even sexual health can fall victim to symptoms of depression, unless the sufferer seeks help and takes the appropriate steps to improve both the emotional and physical symptoms. For men, this can mean adding some extra steps to their penis care routine.

What is depression?

More than just "the blues" or a period of feeling sad, depression is an actual illness that results primarily from chem...

For almost any man, the awareness that his penis sensation is not quite what it used to be can be a huge source of anxiety. After all, from the time that he learns what it can do for him, the pleasure that the penis brings becomes central to his life.

Loss of penile sensitivity affects most men at some point, and those who have serious problems in this department often experience problems with depression, not to mention loss of erectile function. But the sense that the penis is less respon...

Most body parts don't change in size unless they're injured. Fingers, toes, teeth and eyes remain relatively stable unless they're hit or poked, and when they swell, the pain can be enormous. The penis, on the other hand, swells up and shrinks down multiple times each and every day, based on nothing more than physical sensation or mental imagery. However, many men experience loss of penis sensation over the years, and the result can be a penis that just isn’t as responsive as it used to be...

The penis is a constant focus of attention for most men, and mainly in a good way. From the time he discovers the pleasures of self-pleasure in his early teens, a man learns to see his tool as a source of entertainment and comfort. However, whether he is playing solo or with a partner, some common mistakes can lead to loss of penis feeling - in fact, nearly 90% of all men will experience some loss of penis sensation over the years.

Understanding how the wrong moves can diminish natural sen...

Since the beginnings of recorded history, there is evidence that masturbation - a healthy, natural activity in both men and women - has been frowned upon, or even downright forbidden, as an act that can cause physiological and/or spiritual damage. It is not the aim of this article to address the moral issues related to self-pleasuring, as these are highly individualized. On the other hand, many men have been exposed to an endless mythology about everything that can go wrong due to masturbati...

To circumcise or not to circumcise? This has been a touchy subject in the medical community for years, with those in favor of circumcision arguing that it is necessary to prevent disease, and those who are against the procedure insisting that it is not only unnecessary, but actually detrimental to a man’s sexual health. But either way, cut or uncut, knowing the right approach to penis care is essential. Some of the pros and cons of circumcision and how to maintain a healthy penis are explo...

An instrument that is as important as the penis can cause a guy a huge amount of headache and heartache, and intimate woes often send men scrambling for the nearest computer, hoping to find the perfect solution with a few taps of the keys. Unfortunately, it can be difficult to separate the truth from the hype when shopping for a penis health solution online. This article might help, as it will outline the benefits a penis health cream can bring, along with a few common problems that are outs...

"It's like taking a shower while wearing a raincoat." That's the description men often provide when they're asked about sex involving a condom. The barrier seems to block the sensation of skin gliding against skin, and for some men, the loss of penis sensitivity can be so acute that they seem to lose steam in the midst of the process, leaving both partners frustrated and not quite satisfied. Thankfully, with some shopping help and a few penis health care techniques, men can have a fabulous s...

When sexual stimulation, whether performed solo or with a partner, does not feel as powerful and pleasurable as it should, this could be linked to a decrease in penis sensitivity. Here are some reasons for a lack of penis sensitivity, as well as tips on how to regain it. As an added benefit to following these suggestions, men may find that their overall penis health and performance improves substantially.

What Causes the Penis to Become Less Sensitive?

There are various factors associa...

Depression can leave men feeling so low and sad that sex seems like a distant memory. Despite their longing to feel connected, they may be simply unable to respond to a sexual trigger. Antidepressants can be an amazing help, as they may rebalance chemical levels in the brain and allow the sadness to lift. Unfortunately, some men may develop penis sensitivity issues while they're taking these medications. The reasons for this loss are complicated, and a doctor should always be consulted when ...

From childhood, males are generally taught to take care of their bodies by eating right, getting plenty of exercise, and seeing the doctor for regular well-checks. Unfortunately, few parents or doctors make it a point to discuss the finer points of penis anatomy and care with their young boys, and as they reach adulthood, shyness or discomfort in talking about sexual health matters leaves a large number of men with many questions and concerns, but nowhere to turn for the answers.

In order ...

Most men are not comfortable talking about it, but penis sensation loss is common - over 85% of men report some reduction in penile sensitivity. Loss of sensation is sometimes related to aging issues, but in many instances, younger men also experience diminished sensitivity. Loss of sensation can, of course, significantly reduce the amount of pleasure a man can feel, either through self-simulation or partner activity. Fortunately, loss of penile sensitivity is not always permanent. By adopti...

The heart-erection link explained

All aspects of a man’s health can ultimately affect his erectile function and ability to keep things going in the bedroom. Cardiovascular health, in particular, plays a tremendous role in this respect. Men who have reduced blood flow - whether due to decreased heart function itself or due to hardened or clogged arteries (a condition known as atherosclerosis) are highly likely to develop erectile issues as a result. In addition, poor heart health and diab...

Sailors of the past, adrift on the sea for months at a time with no fresh fruit in sight, knew that fruits such as oranges could prevent unpleasant deficiencies that could lead to bleeding gums and sores under the surface of the skin. And mother was right when she insisted that her children drink up their orange juice to keep away colds, flu-like symptoms and other childhood ailments. All in all, the benefits of vitamin C, or ascorbic acid, are well known in the medical community and beyond...

For many men, a big concern when it comes to sex is not being able to last long enough to fully enjoy the range of sensation that an intimate encounter has to offer; men may also worry that they come too soon to give their partners pleasure. On the other hand, there are plenty of men who have the opposite problem. While they may have no difficulty getting it up, taking things to the final moment of release can last for an inordinate amount of time, leaving both partners frustrated.

Do Condoms Make Sex Less Enjoyable?

Many men protest the use of condoms during sex. Women are often told by their partners that sex just doesn’t feel as good when they are using a condom, or that it is unfair to make them wrap it up. This male attitude may cause women to feel pressured to not use a condom, which opens the relationship up to unwanted pregnancies and even Sexually Transmitted Infections (STI’s). However, the fact of the matter is, condoms are a vital component of a man�...

While there's little men can do to prevent wrinkles, migrating hair or creaking joints from taking hold with advancing age, there are things they can do to keep Father Time away from the penis. For example, with a few penis care techniques, men can keep age-related sensitivity loss at bay and extend their sexual enjoyment by years.

Working With the Body

After age 30, the body begins to dial back its production of testosterone. This vital hormone is responsible for a man's sex drive, and ...

A diagnosis of prostate cancer is frightening, and hundreds of thousands of men each year are forced to face the difficult decision about what to do next. In many cases, men are advised by their doctors to "wait and see" how the disease progresses, and some research indicates that, especially in older men, surgery is not always necessary. Other men choose to be proactive, choosing radiation therapy to attack the cancerous cells. Younger men who still have years of reproductive activity ahead...

From the time adolescent boys discover the world of sensation offered by masturbation, the penis becomes an object of extreme fascination. As teenagers, it is not uncommon for males to masturbate 3-4 times per day, or even more often, and this habit tends to continue into adulthood. Despite the admonishments and guilt that may come from older generations concerning the practice, medical science has shown that masturbation is completely normal and even has numerous emotional and physical bene...

On the surface of things, alcohol seems like a good idea when it comes to penis performance. Besides just the feel-good sensation of the buzz that comes after a few drinks, and seeing potential in partners that a man might not otherwise consider, guys who are feeling no pain might be up for doing all kinds of kinky things they might not ordinarily be willing to try. However, in spite of the sense of adventure and the reduced level of inhibition, alcohol can actually have a negative effect bo...

In the 1960s and 1970s, most parents would define the word "foreskin" as "tiny piece of skin that does nothing at all." Much has changed since then. While some new parents continue to remove a baby's foreskin due to penis health concerns or religious traditions, many are now choosing to leave it intact, as they believe that the foreskin has a key role to play in penis sensation and overall health. It's a debate that's likely to wage on, but in the interim, guys who know a little more about w...

By the time most guys reach their teenage years, they have gotten a handle (so to speak) on what works and what doesn’t when it comes to self-pleasure. While sex with a partner may offer a whole new world of sensation, a little alone time can bring some intense orgasms that no other activity can match. So when men start to notice that things don’t feel quite as good as they used to, this can cause some anxiety and concern. Fortunately, there are few cases where sensation is really lost f...

When it comes to masturbating, it is easy to get into a routine. From the first days of discovery and experimentation, it becomes clear that certain hand motions, degrees of pressure and other subtleties get more of a response than others.
