Male Organ Odor? It’s Those Damn Apocrine Glands
by John Dugan OwnerWhew! If a guy needs to open a window every time he
takes off his pants, it’s fair to say that he has a serious male organ odor
problem. As male organ health issues go, male organ odor is one of the more
common. Because a person is less aware of his own bodily aromas, he may
very well not realize he has a bad male organ odor problem – but his partner
does, and that can impact said partner’s willingness to engage in sensual
activity (especially, though not exclusively, oral sensual activity). And
although there can be multiple reasons for male organ odor, one of them boils
down to the simple presence of apocrine glands.
Apo-what glands?
A gland is a group of cells that get together to take substances
(like hormones) and synthesize them so they can be released into the
bloodstream or elsewhere, such as on top of the skin. Most sweat glands in
humans are called eccrine glands, but there is another class of sweat glands –
the apocrine glands – which cover less of the body, and are especially
noteworthy for being the glands found in the armpits and the midsection.
What’s different about apocrine glands? Well, a number of things,
but one of their most distinctive characteristics is that, in the armpits and
midsection, the sweat that they produce has a profound odor. The
eccrine glands on your forearms, for example, don’t have the same powerful odor
as the apocrine glands near your member.
Interestingly, when a person is still a fetus, most of their
glands are apocrine; they only get changed out to mostly eccrine after five or
six months. And although a person is born with smell-ready apocrine
glands just all set to produce painfully pungent odors, they don’t start doing
this until hormonal changes set in during puberty.
Bacteria
Actually, it’s wrong to say that the apocrine glands produce
really rank smelling sweat; the fluid they secrete is actually odorless. But it
is highly attractive to bacteria which feed on it and produce the breath-taking
male organ odor that the partners of far too many men are familiar with.
Okay, so it’s the presence of apocrine glands on and near the
manhood and sacks that acts as a siren call to bacteria which in turn brings
about a stench state in the midsection. What’s a guy supposed to do?
The apocrine glands play an important role in the body, so even if
it were possible to easily get rid of them, a guy shouldn’t do it. Therefore,
it pays to take steps to decrease or eliminate the sweat and/or the bacteria
that feed on the sweat. There are several ways of doing this.
- Shower or bathe. This shouldn’t need to
be said (yet somehow it still does need to be), but men, it’s important to wash
the member and sacks regularly. Many men need to shower every day – and
those who exert a lot of physical energy and therefore sweat a lot (by going to
the gym, lifting heavy objects, running, etc.) may need to shower more than
once a day.
- Wear loose-fitting underwear and trousers.
Tighty whiteys may show off the package, but they also up the heat quotient and
cause more sweat. Loose fitting cotton boxers are a better option when fighting
male organ odor.
Fight male organ odors from apocrine glands by using a first rate
male organ health oil (health professionals recommend Man 1 Man Oil, which is clinically
proven mild and safe for skin). The best oil will contain vitamin A, which
itself has special anti-bacterial properties which make it especially
beneficial for fighting persistent male organ odor. And the oil should also
contain alpha lipoic acid, a potent antioxidant that can fight free radicals
and the oxidative damage they can do which weakens member skin.
