The verdict is in and it’s affirmative that penis vitamin creams are working for men and in some really big ways. Let’s break down what these creams are, what they do, and how to pic...

It’s easy to neglect penis health. Between work, family and friends, there often just isn’t enough time in the day to take special care in making sure the penis is exceptionally well looked after. But there’s so much more a man can do besides his daily shower to keep his penis in excellent condition.

Incorporating demonstrated successful vitamins and minerals into the diet and personal care products can be a powerful way to increase overall health, as well as penis health. One such v...

Maintaining a healthy penis is not especially difficult or time-consuming - but even if it were, it would be worth it. A little investment in penis health pays off in an organ that is high functioning and ready to provide pleasure, as well as fulfill its everyday functions without problems. One thing that helps to ensure a healthy penis is providing it with the proper nutrients - and one of the most important of these is good old vitamin C.

No guy wants to have a penis injury. In fact, some guys might not even want to think about what such an injury might look like. But it pays for men to think ahead, because chances are, every dude out there is going to hurt himself at one time or another. Here are a few penis care do’s and don'ts any guy can follow when the inevitable does happen to him.

Penis Care Don'ts

Cuts, bruises, tears and compressions are just a few of the horrible injuries that can impact a penis on any given d...

When penis pain rears its head, can make it hard for a man to think straight, as all of his attention may be focused on his pants and the misery he feels there. Thankfully, there are a number of penile care techniques that can be really helpful when it comes to healing a sore penis. These are just four tools that could make a big difference for men in need.

1) Cool water soaks.

Sore skin cells often feel hot, and there's good reason for that. When tissues are injured, the body sends a ri...

It's hard to gather statistics on penis injuries. Men with sore peckers often neglect to make a doctor's appointment because they're just too embarrassed, but chances are, every guy out there has dealt with a painful penis at least once. And it's likely that the problem came about due to something really common (and maybe something a little stupid).

This quiz contains a few common causes of penis soreness, along with symptoms that should prompt immediate penis care. Matching the injury to ...

As soon as a man feels the first tingle of an itch in his pants, he might think: "Great. I have an STD." It's a very common assumption, and it can cause men a great deal of worry about their penis health. But before jumping to conclusions, men should know that there are a number of other issues that can cause a burning, uncomfortable, itchy penis that have nothing to do with STDs. Five of the most common are described here.

Pubic lice, which are often referred to as "crabs," are tin...

A quick glance through any amateur porn site reveals a perhaps-obvious fact: just about every man likes to show the world his erect penis. Whether straight or gay, there's a great desire to put on display one's tool and let others admire it, whether through still shots or a video. And with the video option, there's often a further desire to masturbate that erect penis. Penis pride is understandable, but to really be proud of one's tool, a man needs to make sure he's practicing appropriate pe...

Itchy groin? Every guy has been there, whether it’s hanging out at the family BBQ and faking some stretches in hopes that the old jeans provide enough friction to get some relief, or walking down the street on a first date and trying to distract her while subtly adjusting one’s package - without leaving her wondering exactly what is going on. There are few occasions on which a good, healthy, ball scratch is not frowned upon, making it pretty uncomfortable for a guy with a chronic penis i...

Penis pride is a misunderstood term, most often applied to men who have a penis size that is considered impressive; on the contrary, penis pride is something that every man deserves and needs to have, regardless of how he "stacks up" to another man. After all, in the long run, penis size is of far less importance to a man (or his partners) than his penis health and skill in using the tool. And an important part of penis health involves a man having the proper degree of appreciation for the e...

Urinary incontinence is one of those topics that men are often reluctant to discuss, even with their doctors. Most men would like to pretend that the problem could never happen to them, or could never happen until they are old and infirm. But the truth is that even younger men can experience anything from an occasional dribble to ongoing leakage. While practicing proper care is an excellent way to maintain penis health, stopping the leak depends on knowing more about the penis and why incont...

Admit it; when it comes to getting down and dirty, everyone’s curious about how they measure up, either to their peers’ or to their partners’ sexuality. Total number of partners, age that virginity was lost and many more questions such as these are often brought up in adult party games, which can make for a fun (or embarrassing) evening for all involved! Men seem to be especially interested in the sexual stats of their current partner, and - most of all - they wonder if she is telling ...

Head, shaft and balls: These might be the three penis anatomy terms that almost every guy knows. But the penis is more complex than this, and knowing what the various parts are and how they work together can help men to understand penile function and make better decisions when it comes to penis care. Besides, who wouldn’t want to be the only guy around that can rattle off little-known facts about the penis anatomy?

Guys can start out here by testing their knowledge of each of these struc...

Guys tend to be really proud of having a healthy red penis and often like the idea of showing it off to other people. Thanks to the advent of selfies, this activity no longer has to result in a man being arrested for public lewdness or worse. Whether he's an actual exhibitionist or just a guy who is pleased with his penis, selfies can satisfy a guy's desire to share. Of course, guys need to make sure that they are practicing appropriate penis health before clicking that button; after all, th...

Chances are, most guys are making a number of very serious penis care mistakes each and every day, and most of them involve treatment of the delicate skin. While these errors might seem harmless enough, men who keep on ruining their tissues with their choices could end up with a dry penis that lacks sensitivity and has an unhealthy appearance.

It doesn't have to be that way. In fact, there are a number of skincare secrets experts use in order to keep the skin down there both healthy and at...

Certain cells found in the dermal tissue have the ability to create Vitamin D, an essential nutrient that is not made in the body in sufficient amounts, when the skin is exposed to the sun’s UV rays. Unfortunately, when it comes to the penis, men who choose to catch some targeted rays might end up in a heap of trouble. Public exposure is generally not something that is accepted in all places, and that's a shame, because Vitamin D is a really important part of any man's penis care routine. ...

Every man gets an occasional itchy penis due to rashes, sweat, skin irritants and other physical issues; and normally, a little TLC clears the itch right up. But what about that "other" kind of itchy penis: the one that aches to indulge in a little outside-the-relationship exploration? And how does one precisely define cheating anyway? This kind of situation goes a bit beyond typical penis care and gets at the heart of a couple's relationship; it's a topic men need to think carefully about. ...

When a guy is about to drop a significant sum of money on a product that is designed strictly for nourishing his penis, he naturally has some concerns about whether or not the product in question actually works as described - as well he should. To relieve these concerns, it is useful to understand how a penis vitamin cream actually works; knowing what the ingredients can do in terms of penis care - as well as what they cannot - can help him to make an informed decision about his purchase.

Flaky, itchy, dry penis skin is not only uncomfortable and unpleasant to look at; it could be a sign of an underlying health problem. Men who are suffering from dry, flaky penile skin should be aware of the common triggers; many of these are easily addressed by some small changes to the penis care routine, but others may require medical attention. In most cases, there are easy solutions that can restore the skin to its normal, healthy state.

What causes dry penis skin?

Summer is right around the corner (at least in the northern hemisphere), which is good news for those who enjoy spending time outdoors in the sun - but which can also lead to a very red penis for men who decide to engage in a little nude sunbathing. Whether a serious tanner or just a guy who wants to let it all hang out once in a while, any guy who is going to be exposing his tool to direct sunlight needs to engage in proper penis care in order to avoid the pain and discomfort of a sunburned...

Naughty nurse and her patient, high powered business man and his escort, the single girl and the sexy delivery man -- whatever fantasy gets the creative juices going, there is nothing like a little sexual role-playing to bring some adventure to the bedroom. Whether the couple is in a brand new relationship, or has been together so long they’ve lost count of the years, adding role-playing is a healthy - and safe - way for a couple to flex their sexual boundaries and experiences without any ...

Every man is aware of the importance of foreplay, even if he may not always give a woman's erogenous zones the attention they deserve before delving into a lusty round of coupling. But despite being aware of the fact that foreplay can impact the ultimate pleasure of a woman's sexual experience, too many men are too narrow in their focus of what constitutes the female erogenous zones. Just as proper sexual penis care and attention extend beyond vigorous stroking of the male organ, so does fem...

Penis spots on man's favorite tool: not something a guy ever wants to see. Real men who make proper penis care a regular part of their routine know that there are any number of things those spots can be, one of which is molluscum contagiosum. Fret not: it may sound like a deadly disease of some sort, but in fact, it's a common problem that is in no way fatal.

What is molluscum contagiosum?

Molluscum contagiosum (much more commonly called MC, because molluscum contagiosum is just pain to ...

Tantric sex is one of those hot trends that most men and women have heard about, and some may have even practiced; but for most, this Eastern discipline remains something of a mystery. A friend or coworker may have talked about going to a tantric sex workshop or retreat, leaving others wondering - why does someone need a class to learn how to have sex? The answer is that tantric sex is not one’s every day "wham-bam-thank-ya-ma’am" type of sexual experience. While it may not be for every ...

Hitting the daily recommended amount of vitamins and nutrients is pretty low on the priority list for most men. What are those nutrients again? A, B, C, Q, X and T? It’s true that many men have the attitude of who knows, and who cares when it comes to getting their daily dose of nutrients; and at best, they may pop a daily multivitamin and call it good. But what if certain vitamins were found to have penis health enhancing properties? Perhaps that would gain more attention and interest in ...

Staying in hotels can be a lot of fun, but business trips and vacations can also impact a healthy penis. Just as people tend to let other things slide when on a trip - like breaking their diets or not exercising the way they do when at home - so can periods away from home encourage habits that over the long run aren’t in the best interests of optimum penis care.

Now, a little weekend trip here or a week-long vacation there certainly won’t do any serious damage; but it’s also true tha...

A romantic mood is all-important in creating the proper atmosphere for intimacy, so men should take pains to increase their chances of better sex by thinking about the setting to which they bring a potential partner. Practicing sensible penis health care can ensure that a man’s equipment doesn’t have any unpleasant aromas, but what we are talking about here goes beyond good hygiene to encompass sensual scents that can help relax a partner into an especially receptive mood for shared phys...

Advances in medical treatment have vastly improved the health of many people, but can medication reactions have an adverse impact on penis health? The fact is that every medication has the potential to cause side effects, and sometimes, those reactions may have an impact on a man's penis in one way or another. The risk of side effects can vary enormously from one medication to another, as well as from one man to another, so the possibility of a manhood-related side effect by itself does not ...

In the summer months, there’s no way around a sweaty sack and musty manhood. It’s hot out, and the little guy isn’t getting much in the way of ventilation down there, even when a guy is wearing shorts. The hot, dark, sweaty conditions can lead to various unpleasant issues, including heat rash, fungal infections and irritated skin. However, the dreaded smegma can outdo all of these when it comes to that funky penis odor. Learn how to beat the summertime blues naturally with these tips f...

When summer comes around, everyone is ready to get outside and soak up some rays. Unfortunately, sometimes the sunscreen gets forgotten -- or purposely skipped -- in the effort to chase that summer glow. Most men have dealt with sun-burned shoulders, arms, back and chest and know just what to do in those situations. But what happens when a risqué nude sunbathing trip or a too-long tanning booth session goes horribly wrong and burns the penis? A crispy Johnson is none too fun and can be one ...

What man doesn’t want a little bit of sexual adventure in his life?

Here are the top 10 sexual fantasies every man needs to experience - or role-play - to complete the ultimate bucket list. Guys may also learn a thing or two about how best to maintain penis health while checking off th...

On the outside, guys can be full of bravado about the impressive powers of their manhood, especially in the company of other men. But on the inside, there are few men who have not secretly wondered whether their package is really up to par, or whether those bumps, blemishes and variations in skin tone are just plain weird. The answers to these common concerns about what makes for a normal penis are revealed here.

1. Normal Penis Size - Starting with perhaps the biggest concern men have abo...

Many men wonder about the right way to go about caring for their penis; keeping their favorite appendage as healthy as it can possibly be is vital to their sexual health, and they might be willing to do almost anything necessary to make it happen. Thankfully, a penis health crème infused with vitamin C can help. In fact, C-enriched products can provide penis skin care benefits in 5 important ways.

1. Helping the Skin to Heal

The skin of the penis can be nicked and scraped in all sorts o...

Men are notorious doctor skippers and delayers, often putting off the inevitable for as long as possible. When it comes to the penis, however, this practice is especially frowned upon. A man’s physical and sexual health are both impacted by the well-being of his Johnson; therefore, when it comes to penis pain, he shouldn’t mess around. Certain infections and penis problems can be spread to other individuals during sex; they can cause long-term damage to the penis, and they can even cause...

One of the key elements to a great sex life is having a rock hard erection. In order for man to be able to get -- and keep -- a woody that won’t quit, he needs to have excellent circulation throughout his entire body - and especially down there. However, even men in their 20’s and 30’s, not to mention those who are getting up there in age, may have difficulty with sexual function related to blood flow, and the often increases with age. Learn about a powerful nutrient that can help keep...

Most men don’t need a list of reasons to have more sex - it feels good, he wants it, end of story. But for those who do need a little extra motivation, there are several proven scientific reasons why sex is good for the health! So, perhaps next time the other partner just isn’t in the mood, the following reasons could be listed on the pro-sex side of the conversation. After all, he is just being a loving husband or boyfriend concerned about his partner’s health and wellness, right? Rea...

Penile itching seems to happen at the worst possible moments, and it is almost impossible to ignore. No matter how hard a guy tries to exercise mind over matter, there is no avoiding the overwhelming need for a vigorous scratch, regardless of whether he is on a crowded train, in line at the coffee shop, or meeting his future in-laws for the first time. While itchy skin can creep up for what seems like no reason at all, the source of the irritation is often something the man is doing without ...

It’s sad to say it, but it’s true; according to men’s health specialists, the average guy spends very little time caring for his favorite appendage. While he may spend hours every day thinking about it, the actual consideration he gives it during his personal hygiene ritual is minimal. This lack of attention to penis care can lead to some unfortunate problems that can leave the manhood feeling sluggish and looking unhealthy. Fortunately, men can turn an unattractive and unresponsive lu...

Erectile dysfunction (ED) is often thought of as an age-related problem; unfortunately, men who are a little past their prime may be too quick to dismiss impotence issues as a natural side effect of the aging process. If they address the problem at all, they may focus only on its effects on their sexual performance and look for medications or other means that only target the immediate problem. On the other hand, ED can be an indicator of a more serious problem, so it is critical not to ignor...

Of all the vitamins out there, vitamin D is, perhaps, one of the most well-known; possibly because well-meaning moms and dads have been telling their growing children from day 1 that they need to drink their milk with vitamin D for strong teeth and bones. Well, Mom and Dad weren’t just pulling a fast one on their kids; vitamin D is, in fact, an essential nutrient that helps the body absorb calcium for strong bones and teeth. Vitamin D also performs other important functions in the body - i...

The health and appearance of his penis is important to every man, and when problems crop up on the penis skin, most men are eager for an easy, no-fuss solution. Some common problems that most men will encounter are described below, as well as the appropriate steps for penis care that are needed to address them.

It seems like nobody has enough time anymore. Everybody is rushing around trying to meet the big work deadline, complete errands, or shuttle the kids to the next after-school activity on the list. With all that running around, unfortunately, many people put their health and wellness on the back burner. Fast food becomes easier than home-cooked meals, self-care routines get rushed through in order to get to work on time; and exercise - well, does running up the stairs at work count as exercis...

The idea of a ménage à trois may be simultaneously the most exciting and intimidating thought for many men. True, bringing two ladies into the bedroom may be the stuff that fantasies are made of, but before walking down that road there are many things for a man to consider - particularly if he is considering making this journey with his significant other.

Male sex toys are arguably more popular now than ever; while it's still not considered polite for a guy to drop references to his penis ring into polite conversation, people are more aware of the role that sex toys can play in a man's sensual life. They often contribute to improved penis health by creating new paths to pleasure for a guy. Still, there are situations in which a man would prefer to keep his preference for sexual playthings private - such as when passing through airport securit...

If there is one thing all men can agree on, it’s that they would never turn down a stronger erection. In most cases, the actual size or length of the penis has less to do with a partner’s pleasure than its firmness and engorgement. As with many other aspects of life, it’s all about quality, rather than quantity! In order to ensure a rock-hard, lasting erection, adequate blood flow is the primary concern; after all, the amount of blood in the penis is directly responsible for a man’s ...

When it comes to sex, men and women are two totally different creatures. A man may pop a woody after glancing a bit of skin, having a sexy thought pop into his mind, or simply by smelling a familiar perfume - that is all it takes for him to be off and running. Women, however, are much more complicated. They often need more direct physical stimulation to become ready for the deed (hello, foreplay) rather than visual or mental stimulation. So it is no surprise then, that many men are curious a...

For most men, their first sexual experience is of the solo variety and requires little more than their hand and some imagination. As a young man gains experience and familiarity with his body, he may begin to experiment with different masturbatory techniques and has likely even gotten his own cleanup routine down to a science. Whether he uses facial tissue, toilet paper, a quick shower, or the old gym sock routine, guys know that a good climax is going to require some cleanup afterwards. Hav...

A partner with a healthy sex drive makes for a man with a happy penis. But there may be extended periods of time when a woman's drive may be in a lower gear than a man desires. Jumpstarting that drive is important for a couple's emotional and sexual lives, and since good penis health includes a proper amount of sexual activity, it's also important for a guy's overall health status.

What accounts for her decreased interest in sex?

There can be many reasons why a woman might not be "in the...

Although a relative rarity, the subject of penis bleaching does occasionally arise, especially among men who are especially concerned with penis appearance. To many men, a red penis is a sign of health and vitality; however, some light skinned men find the disparity between the color of their penis and the color of the skin on the rest of their bodies odd. Those who opt to engage in penis bleaching should be aware that this process can have a negative impact on penis health and that many med...

Every man wants to put his best foot forward in all aspects of life -especially when it comes to the bedroom. However, when a man is hopping between the sheets, he is considerably less worried about his feet and much more worried about a specific other body part, a body part that makes its home a few feet above his sneakers. When it comes to the performance of the penis in the bedroom, erectile firmness is key - even more so than size - though the latter tends to receive more attention from ...

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...

Men in their late teens and early twenties are expected to be in their sexual prime, and for the average, healthy male, this is indeed the case. However, it is not at all uncommon for younger men to experience recurring problems with erectile dysfunction. Impotence, as it is also known, can be a devastating problem that affects a man’s self-confidence, his self-image, and his intimate relationships. The good news is that, by uncovering the underlying cause and engaging in appropriate penis...

When it comes to penis care, the majority of men have the basics down, and they follow a similar routine just about every day when it comes to grooming and hygiene. On the other hand, while all of the steps they were taught growing up - by parents, doctors, and health teachers, most guys are not aware of one vital step that could make a big difference in their overall penis health.

The average male follows a routine that looks something like this:

1. Hygiene - Of course, cleanliness is t...

The nutrition and supplement market has been booming in recent years, with a lot of health products coming out specially formulated for the male body. Just a few decades ago, if a man went to a pharmacy, he might have only one or two choices for a male multi-vitamin; whereas nowadays, a man can walk into a store that sells nothing but vitamins and supplements for men. With all the products out there, it’s hard to know which ones a man really needs. Before using any supplements at all, he n...

Every guy has a penis, and every guy knows that every other guy occasionally has penis problems of one kind or another, whether it’s a funky odor, a rash, a concern about technique or any of a thousand other possible issues. Sometimes, a guy wants to talk over some of these problems with one of his buddies - to get a new perspective, of course - but feels awkward about doing so. It can be difficult, but talking about male issues with another guy is a positive way to ensure penis health and...

Between the cold weather, dry indoor heat, and constant friction from clothing, the winter penis has a tendency to be dry and rough. As a result, it is prone to problems like soreness during masturbation and sex; it is more vulnerable to infections; and it is certainly not appealing to prospective partners. Fortunately, men don’t have to take dry penis skin with their pants, down, so to speak; using a little extra TLC during the winter months can help to improve the look and feel of the sk...

It's okay, men, admit it; the female mind is an often mysterious, yet intriguing place, and though a guy might think he knows what his woman is thinking, he probably has no idea at all. It's fine; the female side of the human race enjoys keeping men on their toes, as it makes life more interesting. And, truth be told, though it might feel like all woman can read a man's mind, there are times when she also has no clue what he's thinking, so don't feel too bad. But, alas, here are 5 commonly p...

When it comes to health and personal care products, most men either grab what is on sale or stick to whatever classic product they have been using for years, with little regard to what ingredients are listed on the label. It’s not surprising; in terms of hygiene products, men often just want something that gets them clean and doesn’t leave them smelling like a girl. However, while a man may not care if his skin is silky smooth, his partner might; and personal care manufacturers are (fina...

Any man who says he has never felt like he needed a boost of energy from time to time is either lying - or he is Superman. Every man feels sluggish from time to time, and unfortunately, it can be painfully obvious when he is lacking in sexual energy. Nothing is worse than having a brain that is willing and ready to go - and a body that simply is not. Luckily, there are some measures a man can take to drastically reduce the tired turtle syndrome and ensure his that manhood is energetic and re...

A naturally red penis is a happy penis; when that blood rushes into the organ, it becomes flushed with excitement, gets erect and is ready for action. Unfortunately, a man’s penis thinks with a mind of its own and keeps its own schedule, and this which may not always be the same as its owner’s. A guy may think that popping an obvious boner in the middle of an important presentation is not the best idea, but his penis may just not give a rap about his opinion on the matter. Of course, fre...

To those who are only minimally familiar with the idea of Tantric sex, the term can conjure up images of yoga experts entwined in impossible positions, barely moving for hours on end. However, engaging in Tantric activity is not necessarily reserved for the fit and supple; it can be enjoyed by nearly everyone who is interested in a more sensual experience than a 3-minute romp in the sheets. Tantra can best be described as a spiritual experience involving being in the here and now, rather tha...

For many, anal sex is highly intriguing - the idea of a new territory to explore can be extremely exciting, for women as well as men. On the other hand, the rectum is not precisely designed for penetration, so it is less receptive to male entry than the more… conventional approach. But with the right precautions, a consenting couple can explore safely and comfortably, without an increased risk of pain, discomfort or tissue damage. Following these guidelines and engaging in appropriate peni...

Many popular country music songs imply that the only suitable ways to get over a broken heart caused by an extramarital affair are (a) taking a baseball bat to his truck, (b) drowning one’s sorrows through drinking, or (c) kicking him or her to the curb and never looking back… But in spite of these cynical views, it really is possible to move past an affair without violence, booze or throwing the relationship out the window.

Anybody can have great sex, but what is more memorable? The mind-blowing night that included seven orgasms, or the complete and total train wreck that barely constitutes sex.

An active penis is a happy penis; for many men, using a penis sleeve is part of what keeps his tool happy. (His partner may also find that the sleeve increases her or his happiness as well!) This sex toy can be a welcome addition to a couple's romantic life and when used with care should not have a significant impact upon a man's ongoing penis health.

What is a penis sleeve?

Sometimes referred to as a penis sheath, a sleeve is technically any covering that is added to a man's shaft; howe...

Of all the penis problems, a soft erection is probably the most feared by men - followed closely by going bald, of course.

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...

Most of us try to maintain a healthy diet, get enough sleep, and take in enough vitamins and minerals - even if it means popping a multivitamin to make up for the greasy burger and fries a couple times a week. However, sometimes the body just doesn’t get the nutrition it needs and can become vitamin deficient in one area or another, which may lead to potentially serious consequences. Vitamin D is one such vitamin that nobody can afford to fall short on, which is a bummer for those individu...

The penis, as most men are aware, is a highly complex organ made up of a variety of specialized tissues that need proper care to function properly.

Simply put, anemia occurs when a person doesn’t have enough healthy red blood cells. Sometimes the problem is that there aren’t enough blood cells; sometimes it’s that the ones that are...

As a subject of witty discourse among male acquaintances, the notion of a permanent erection seems like a problem a man could certainly learn to live with. But all jokes aside, a lasting erection is not normal, and it can have serious health consequences for any man who experiences a stiffy that stays in places for more than several hours. This condition, known as priapism, is not a sign of a healthy penis, but rather of a serious medical condition in which blood has become trapped in the ma...

If asked to sit down and give it some thought, most men will be unable to come up with an answer about the last time they thought about the importance of nutrition when it comes to penis performance and overall good health.

A great workout at the gym demands to be followed up with a refreshing shower, but guys need to practice preventive men’s sexual health care in the locker room and public showers. After all, when a man's member is exposed, it's at its most vulnerable. Good penis care is essential; if a guy doesn't take care of his own junk, who will?

Let’s be honest. Sex can get messy, real messy. Most couples establish a sort of post-sex routine to deal with the orgasmic aftermath, which may include a trip to the bathroom, a quick rinse in the shower, a towel for clean up stashed under the bed and so on and so forth.

Dry ejaculation, or retrograde eja...

Unfortunately, the condition is not entirely uncommon and is one that many men deal with at some point or another in their lifetime.

In an age of so-called super-foods, miracle vitamins, and other dubious nutritional breakthroughs, it can be difficult to sort out the legitimate benefits from some of the more outrageous claims made by companies that market these products.

A good rule of thumb for smart consumers to follow is that if it sounds too good to be true, then...

Male menopause - myth or fact?

It is common knowledge that women enter a period of life known as menopause, when their hormone levels change drastically and they no longer menstruate, signaling the end of their childbearing years.

However, while men can be affected by some of the symptoms ex...

On the other hand, a substantial number of individuals have thicker, coarser hair that grows on the back, arms, legs, and other parts of the body where it is not always ...

Those who opt to envelop their manhood in the luscious, juicy flesh of a watermelon or pumpkin should be prepar...

The foreskin is more than just an extra flap of skin at the end of the penis. This bit of tissue, also known as the prepuce, plays an important role in penis health. From birth, it protects the glans penis (or head) from the outside world, helping to prevent injury and preserving sensitivity.

While circumcision, or surgical ablation of the foreskin, is common practice in a number of cultures, most males retain their foreskin. In order to prevent problems from developing and keep the skin c...

The physical working of one’s penis is a question most men do not stop to ponder. As long as it looks normal, feels normal and acts normal, a man generally accepts that his penis is doing just fine.

Chafing is a common and often embarrassing problem that seems to rear its ugly head at t...

On the surface of things, alcohol seems like a good idea when it comes to penis performance.

Acne is considered the scourge of adolescence, but even older men may experience the occasional outbreak here and there on their bodies. Unfortunately, it is not uncommon for men to see telltale dots spring up even on the skin of the penis, leading to a temptation to take action with pins, tweezers, sharp fingernails and even scissors, hoping to snip open the skin and drain the blockage.

Men are often less than proactive when it comes to going to the doctor when they are under the weather, often preferring to tough it out at home. Even still, nothing will send a man running to his doc faster than an unusual bump, discharge, or pain coming from below the belt. And with good reason; when things go wrong with a man’s equipment, it can affect his physical health as well as his love life. While a penis rash, bump or lump may be completely benign, it can also indicate a more ser...

The penis is a complex organ - perhaps more so than most people give it credit for. And just like the other vital organs in the body, the penis needs to be cared for on a daily basis.

However, too much sun exposure brings with it harmful UV rays, which damage the skin and contribute to skin can...
