circumcised penis - #17560
I was circumcised as a baby, so I never really thought about it much until recently. But over the last few years, I’ve started noticing that my circumcised penis feels way more sensitive than it should at times, and then other times, it's like there's less sensation than I expect. It’s weird, like a mix of both extremes. Sometimes, after sex or even just from friction against clothes, the skin feels kinda raw, almost like it’s irritated. Other times, it just feels numb, like I can’t feel as much as I think I should. I read that having a circumcised penis can lead to changes in sensitivity because the foreskin isn’t there to protect the glans, and over time, the skin gets desensitized. But some people say this can also be because of poor blood circulation or dryness. I don’t know if it's normal or if I should be doing something about it. I also feel like my skin gets drier in that area sometimes, especially in colder months. I started looking into Ayurveda to see if there are natural ways to improve sensitivity and overall health of a circumcised penis. Some articles mentioned using herbal oils to improve circulation and protect the skin, but I don’t know which ones actually work. Also, are there foods or lifestyle changes in Ayurveda that can help with nerve sensitivity? I don’t want to use artificial creams or medications unless absolutely necessary. Does Ayurveda have any specific recommendations for taking care of a circumcised penis, especially in terms of sensitivity and maintaining natural moisture? Are there herbs or oils that help with this? Also, is there a way to prevent further loss of sensation over time? Any advice would be really helpful.
