What is up with my smelly dick?!

[leaves]

I shower every day, I am circumsized but smega keeps rearing it's ugly head and it smells really gross.
any thoughts?

Check for late seepage after urination or orgasm, a little while either after sex or masturbation. You probably want to get your Johnson checked for any infections. It may also be your diet or something else you ingest like smoking or drinking; they definitely change your smell and taste.

As above and also think possible fungal infection too. Yes it is possible for guys to pick up a yeast infection and it be a low slow cooker, then sometimes flame out into a pretty horrendous display. Diet might have something to do with it, especially if there is a tendency towards Diabetes. So if changing a few things doesn't seem to help, get a check up at your local doc.

I'm guessing it might just be how you clean up.

Pre-cum can settle in under the foreskin, so can those last few drops of pee that didn't shake off.

If you jerk off or have sex, be sure to wipe all the cum off the head and make sure you pull back the foreskin and wipe up any pre or post cum. And make sure you shake it well after pee-ing too.

Try those tips for a week or so and see if that helps.

Oh yeah, and make sure you rinse under there well after washing too. Residual soap can build up too.

Doritos won't give you a smelly dick. Just an orange one! LOL

 

[Blakiepoo]

haha i am as a matter of fact. cut but loose that is. I'll have to look into that...someday.

 

[trappedhello]

ok so i have the same problem as you , kinda
i clean every morning ( and yes i clean everything )
i've tried with different soaps , with no soap and nothing works
i also went for tests and all is right .
so i clean up in the morning but through the day it seems like something ( smegma , i think ) is forming under the skin , so when i wake up in the morning , it dosen't look great , i wash it again but it didn't happen before
can someone tell me if they had the same problem before ?

 

[versatastic]

What does it smell like exaclty? Maybe you should go for a checkup.

Sometimes my pee smells like stuff I eat too! But only if I eat a lot of something and not a lot of water. I make sure to shake more than a couple times to get the last few drops of urine out. My penis never smells like food, or at least no one ever tells me so.

It sounds like you're surprised that cleaning once a day in the morning isn't enough. It isn't enough for most of us. If you clean 3 times you should be ok, say once you get home from work or after your workout, certainly before going out and again before going to bed.

As to why you didn't have the problem before, my guess is that you're young and have just reached sexual maturity.

 

[trappedhello]

so you mean , if i take my shower in the morning
when i wake up the next morning it's totally normal that my cock have some smegma ( i think ) ??

 

[954dude]

Keep washing it after any excretion (urinating or masturbation) and if that fails, then a visit to the doctor is a must.

 

[senorserio]

I'm confused....I am a circumsized male and have NEVER once had a problem with smegma. Had I not read posts by uncut guys, I probably wouldn't even know what smegma was. Do many cut guys still experience this problem? Am I in some crazy minority since I do not?

 

[luminum]

Again, he mentioned that he was loosely circumcised, meaning that he probably has a good portion of his foreskin remaining, which may give rise to more smegma than a completely circumcised man.

I agree with the previous posters: Just wash up a bit more, but not vigorously, because it's meant to be there. If it smells abnormally bad, then you may want to get it tested for an infection.

and once again its " SMEGMA - the return"

A couple of things.... make sure you aren't overdoing it on the soap. You may be creating a PH unbalance, which is killing off the good bacteria, while encouraging the bad (smelly) bacteria.

The other thing you can do is to get some baby wipes and leave them on the back of the toilet. Once you are doing peeing a couple of times throughout the day, wipe your penis off with the wipe, flush.

Also, is it just that your penis doesn't smell like soap or nothing and smells naturally, ie you rub your fingers on your penis then have to bring your fingers up to your nose to smell it? Or can you smelly your 'nasty ho crotch ass' sitting in front of the TV? LOL I also noticed that since I became a vegetarian I don't have to shower as much due to stink.
