After surgery to deal with problems such as a curved or bent penis or prostate issues, it is not uncommon for men to experience a loss of penis sensitivity. For example, in a post on a recent men’s health forum, a patient who had undergone surgery to correct a bent penis lost nearly 100% of the sensation in the glans; as he put it, “You could cut it off, and I would not even know.”
When penis sensation diminishes to this point, enjoyment of sex may seem like a thing of the past. However, with a little patience, the right knowledge, and the use of penis-specific vitamins and minerals, many men report that their penis sensation does return to normal. The following sections provide information on the effects of surgery on penis sensitivity; men should keep in mind that self-diagnosis is not generally recommended, and it is important to talk to a urologist about ongoing penis issues that do not resolve within a few days.
How does surgery affect penis sensitivity?
Any surgery in the genital area, from corrective measures for Peyronie’s disease to circumcision, can damage the network of erogenous nerves that are responsible for transmitting tactile sensation to the brain. When nerve tissue is disrupted, it can take months to regenerate. According to Dr. Kevin Pho, regrowing just one inch of nerve fiber takes about a month.
Other types of trauma can also have a negative effect on penis sensation. Penile fractures (which are uncommon, but may result from injury during sex), as well as continuous aggressive masturbation, can also lead to peripheral nerve damage and affect the ability to feel touch, hot or cold.
According to medical researchers, there is little that can be done in terms of drug therapies or surgery to correct loss of penis sensation related to nerve damage. On the other hand, there is anecdotal evidence that natural remedies may speed nerve regeneration and assist in restoring penis sensitivity.
Men who have experienced a recent traumatic injury to the penis, severe pain during an erection or urination, unusual spots or bruising, or any other penis problem that comes on suddenly, should seek immediate medical attention.
How natural ingredients can help
The nervous system, like the rest of the body, requires proper nutrient support to function well. Building nerve tissue requires the presence of amino acids such as acetyl-L-carnitine, which plays a role in the formation of new nerve cells, as well as helping to repair damaged receptors.
Supporting nutrients such as vitamins A, B5 and D may also have a positive effect on penis sensation, as they tend to boost the body’s natural healing ability and speed recovery after trauma or surgical procedures. In addition, keeping the penis well-moisturized and preventing excessive drying from friction and hard use can help to promote the formation of softer, more supple skin that is receptive to touch and sexual stimulation. In some cases, even men who have lost penis sensitivity as a result of circumcision may be able to alleviate some of the nerve damage and stimulate the growth of new nerve tissue.
What to look for in a penis health crème
Finding the right penis health formula (such as Man 1 Man Oil) takes more than just a stop at the local pharmacy. A penis crème should be free of chemical fragrances and dyes that can dry and irritate the skin, and they should contain the right combination of vitamins, antioxidants and other essential nutrients needed to support penis nerve health. In addition, natural moisturizing agents such as shea butter, which is safe for most skin types, should be a primary ingredient in any penis care regimen.
