An active coupling life is an important part of overall wellbeing for most men; a safe coupling life is key to physical wellbeing and proper male organ health. Unfortunately, many people don’t know all the facts about partner-transmitted infections, including what is tested for and what symptoms may or may not present. This means many adults are at risk for contracting and spreading infections. It’s imperative that people learn about transmitted infection facts to ensure a safe, healthy coupling life.

Who should get tested?

Any man who is engaging in coupling would do well to be tested yearly. Even when barrier protections are used, there’s a chance, though small, that infections may be transmitted. Risk increases if a man has experienced barrier protection breakage or slippage, and if he couples with multiple partners. Men who have unprotected coupling should definitely be tested at least once a year.

It’s especially important for men with symptoms to get tested. The exact tests he receives will depend on his risk level and any symptoms, to be determined by a medical professional. He may request testing that is not deemed necessary as well.

Symptoms

Men need to know what symptoms indicate infection; just as importantly, they need to realize that, sometimes, no symptoms are present.

When men experience itching within the urethra, burning upon urination and abnormal discharge, they may have contracted a social disease, although a more mild cause such as yeast infection may also be indicated. Testing is crucial. The transmitted infections associated with these symptoms are trachomatis bacterial infection, Neisseria bacterial infection and trichomoniasis (caused by the Trichomonas parasite). Only about 30% of people with trichomoniasis develop symptoms, but non-symptomatic people can pass it on regardless.

Another common symptom of certain infections is the presence of bumps or sores on the male organ. Bumps should be diagnosed by a health professional to determine what type they are. HSV infection, warts, molluscum contagiosum and Treponema pallidum bacterial infection may be indicated.

HSV and warts generally don’t cause major health issues, although they are unpleasant and can be itchy or painful. Molluscum contagiosum is benign, while Treponema pallidum bacterial infection can actually kill a person. Early detection and treatment are imperative.

There are many forms of the human papilloma virus (HPV), some of which cause warts, some that cause cervical cancer and others that are benign and have no symptoms. Most people are infected with some form of HPV at some point in their lives, and, usually, their bodies fend off the virus within a couple years.

Human immunodeficiency virus infection begins with symptoms similar to those of the flu – fever, fatigue and swollen lymph nodes. Others include diarrhea and weight loss.

Tests

Trachomatis and Neisseria bacterial infections can be tested for with a urine sample or a swab inside the urethra. Rear end testing should be done if men have received posterior coupling.

Human immunodeficiency virus can be tested for via blood test or a swab of the mouth.

No tests for HPV exist for men. If a man is infected with the kind that causes warts, a visual diagnosis is conducted.

Treponema pallidum bacterial infection can be tested for with a blood test or, if a sore is present, with a swab of the sore.

Non-symptomatic HSV may be tested for with a blood test. If bumps are present, a swab can be taken. HSV tests aren’t always conclusive or reliable.

Trichomoniasis may be diagnosed visually or via swab, although the infection is harder to detect in men.

Molluscum contagiosum can be diagnosed visually.

Optimal male organ care

The importance of safe coupling cannot be overestimated, and regular testing is a key component. Remember that not every infection has symptoms, and not everything can be tested for.

Along with using barrier protection, men can give their male organs the best care possible by using a male organ health crème (health professionals recommend Man1 Man Oil). Such a product will not protect against transmitted infections, but it will keep the skin in optimal condition, thanks to natural moisturizers, and encourage healthy blood flow to the male organ. A healthy, attractive male organ is an important asset for a man’s coupling life, so keep the manhood in peak condition; it’ll invite more action.

Manscaping has become increasing popular, with many men delving into the world of male organ shaving as a means to a new sensual experience, a way to present their packages in a different manner or simply to keep the crotch a bit cooler during warm weather. (Hopefully, all are being careful with the razor so that their male organ health is in no way compromised!) Shaving the groin is, of course, a personal preference, but those who wish to try it may want to consider ways to make mid-level hair removal into a sensual experience.

Partner up or go it alone
Clearly, there’s already a sensual element associated with male organ shaving. It’s going to involve manipulation of the genitals, and as all guys know, that often leads to a bit of manhood playtime. With that in mind, a guy should decide if he wants to undergo his shearing experience by himself or with a playmate. Either way can be rewarding, and there is no right or wrong answer. But it’s good to decide in advance, as working with a partner will require a bit more planning.

Whether shaving solo or under the ministrations of a second party, there are a number of steps one can take to ramp up the sensual quotient a bit.

Take a picture.
Sure, most guys have an intimate knowledge of just what their tools look like – especially in the age of selfies. Nonetheless, take a moment to snap a few “before” shots of the manhood in varying states of firmness.

Tune it up.
Give your ears something to feast on while the package is being shaved. Put on some music that matches the desired mood. Think relaxing yet seductive – maybe a little “Bolero,” for example. A guy wants his body to feel at ease while there’s a razor puttering around his manhood, so avoid any raucous tunes that might cause tension.

Trim it.
A thick bush needs to be trimmed down to about ¼ inch in length before it can be shaved bare. Often a man hurries through this part, but it’s a good idea to take it slow and enjoy it. If one has a partner helping, the partner can add in a few slow circular rubs or perhaps caress the area with kisses while trimming. If a man is going solo, take time to admire one’s handiwork in a mirror as the trim proceeds.

Soak.
It’s important that the skin is nice and moist when shaving. Taking a warm bath is an excellent way to hydrate the skin. And while in the tub, a guy or his partner can engage in a little caressing of the tool.

Cream up.
A very mild shaving cream is necessary after the bath in order to keep the skin supple and ready for the shave. Spend a little time applying it and rubbing it in slowly and tenderly. And then take time in applying the razor. One wants to be careful, of course, but going slowly allows a man to really savor the experience of having so much attention placed on his package as well.

Afterwards
Sensual male organ shaving doesn’t end with the application of the razor. After carefully washing off and drying the package, it’s important that a man rub in a superior male organ health crème (health professionals recommend Man1 Man Oil). The area is going to be quite sensitive for several days, so regularly using a crème that includes a powerful combination of a high-end emollient (such as Shea butter) and a natural hydrator (such as vitamin E) is a must. This ensures that the member skin is appropriately moisturized. It’s also wise to use a crème that includes vitamin D, also called the “miracle” vitamin because it is so valuable in fighting disease. Adding vitamin D helps enable cell functionality, which boosts overall male organ health and is especially good on the sensitive skin of a newly-shaved manhood.
