I’ve been told my penis has a bit of a…taste. How do I get rid of it?
In adequate or misguided cleaning of the genitals can lead to a bit of a smell or, ahem, taste. Giving your penis and testicles the right attention when bathing can help, especially if you are uncircumcised.
Every day, clean it! Use a gentle, unscented soap like Dove to wash the entire penis and testicles. If you’re uncircumcised, make sure to (gently) pull the foreskin back and wash underneath, rinsing off all the soap before returning the foreskin to its resting place. Dead skin cells and oil can build up under the foreskin and make smells a little worse, so daily cleaning will help keep things under control. Make sure to rinse off all of the soap before you dry off, as soap left on the skin can cause irritation.
