Hahahahaha for real

[@dannydadog1987]

I find in a rush it's an exact opposite for me. If any list hairs sticks, it's exactly there. Turns out washing with soap or any strong surfactant can leave the regions on the lower body more contaminated than the rest, at least places not rubbed last or rinsed well. The lower, the more action is necessary, as parts where surfactant is flowing over and not tuoched with pressure afterwards are the worst in contamination. That's why if i have the time, i take it slow for tricky areas and use a strong flow of cold water in the end for as long as it's healthy for given circumstances. Other thing, in cold weather periods with low physical activity its healthy periodically wash less than daily, or at least not in full (ex.g. it's harmfu to wash your hair with shampoo daily) and without any soap. It restores skin's healthy microbiome, if it's not infected or sick in some way. Only your intimate parts and mouth is certainly to be washed correctly daily However all this depends on a person's condition, genetics, partner and experiences.

Actually, just because you lack foreskin doesn't mean you're immune to getting it. Smegma happens when one fails to wash their own genitals, so as long as you take daily showers, you're good. Besides, females get way more smegma than males anyways. It can accumulate under the clitoral hood or around the folds of the labia. There was a meme going around about "clit cheese".

It depends. My advise is outside of the foreskin: turn off or step out of the water, build up a lather on your hands and then apply. Under the foreskin: Just use running water and apply a gentle massage with finger tips. Also important is don't use standard body wash or soap on your genitals -at all! Use something specifically for sensitive skin and also without any grit. Mild botanical soap, goats milk or even a lotion would work.

For me I just pull back the foreskin so the tip is completely exposed (so the upper part of your penis looks like you're circumcised) and then just use plain running water from the shower to wash it from various angles.

Cleanliness is important and there’s almost no one that wants to be unclean, or smelly. Yet, everything in moderation is a logical and reasonable position to take on almost every issue. Cleanliness is definitely something that this applies to. Besides, it is a standard fact that most things that people do, should fall somewhere in a normal range, that if exceeded will often be detrimental. It applies to machines, chemicals and people. As an example, the proper amount of oil and grease are essential for machinery longevity. Too little or two much will usually end in major problems, if not catastrophic failures. The same is true of the human body and the crazy irrational emphasis on sanitizing it. That’s especially true of the sanitizing of internal organs and especially the sensitive mucosal membranes involving the male and female genitalia. Too much cleaning is bad. Adding chemicals and soaps to those organs can be catastrophic. It will, over time, desensitize delicate tissues, especially the fine touch nerve ends found in the typical prepuce and glans of the penis and clitoris. Soap also tends to destroy the important specialized microbiome that exists in and on healthy genitalia. And if that isn’t enough, soaps on that delicate tissue of the glans tends to cause keratin to build up. You don’t want the glans covered with a layer of callused skin (keratin) on that thing. Then there’s those that have allergic reactions to soap that can result in contact dermatitis, infections and putrid odors. Dr. Malik is great at informing people about things that are important, but that have been considered off limits when discussing sex and the sex organs. With her talk about cleaning the genitalia, I’m afraid she’s bought the misinformation put out by the cosmetics industry - hook, line and sinker. Humans have enjoyed sex and reproduced for eon’s without a warehouse full of chemicals in every bathroom. It a new phenomenon and we’re just learning about it’s harmful effects to otherwise healthy people.

I'm gonna share some wisdom from a negative experience as a teenager (this is something both for you and especially your male kids) - I had Phimosis which is also known as a tight foreskin. Now this is quite common and a subject of debate as to why it happens in the first place (genetics, environment, behaviour). So I would say if your a parent of a son as they move through their teenage years, ask them questions about it and encourage proper cleaning of the foreskin and glans and ask them also (I know it's a difficult and sensitive issue) if the foreskin properly retracts. Also, this bit is a little controversial: No one knows (including doctors) specifically how or why Phimosis occurs, but there are theories and certainly behaviours that don't help. In children before adolescence - it's normal for the foreskin to not fully retract, but as the male enters adolescence, gradually it is supposed to - but it doesn't in everyone. From what I've researched, if a child/teenager is not taught how to clean and retract properly from as early as possible it can lead to the problem. Also from what I've read certain early and unhealthy or unusual masturbation behaviours, such as "thrusting" against the bed can lead to it (if you think about it, as a male your still developing and that behaviour can lead to "damage"). Or it can simply just happen anyway for reasons not completely understood (genetics, environment etc). The point is the "thrusting" clearly won't help the problem. Anyway my unfortunate experience - talking about sexual health and stuff at that time was slightly taboo with my own father (although I don't lay any blame on him) so I was just left to my own devices with it. But I do also blame the schools and education system (even here in the UK) for not bringing attention to Phimosis and cleaning. (I also did "thrust" against the bed in early adolescence, unfortunately). Anyway, the solutions are creams and stretching techniques and if that doesn't work, partial or full circumcision (unfortunately). I needed the full. Now from my perspective - if possible try to avoid the circumcision (because most people handle it fine, but some unfortunately me find it "traumatic"). It definitely was a very difficult thing to go through as an 18 year old and I still have some issues with relationships now and a kind of "indifference" at least at the moment. Bottom line: educate your boys in the cleaning of the foreskin! Prevent the need for the trauma of circumcision and from Phimosis even happening in the first place (if possible). Circumcision itself is also controversial: I will say this much - when the foreskin is removed enjoyable sex is still possible but some scientific theories suggest that as the foreskin contains many nerve endings and the normally very sensitive glans is covered and kept lubricated - some studies suggest sex is more pleasurable with an uncircumcised penis in comparison to a circumsized one as there is more sensitivity uncut. On a more serious finishing note: if a case of Phimosis goes untreated, like she said, there is a risk of penile cancer. Plus sex will be difficult, painful or not possible. There will be general discomfort around the foreskin and glans and disturbingly the foul smell of a large build up of "smegma" trapped in the foreskin - it smells like 'cheesy urine death". And that's why repeated infection is dangerous. BE WARNED! I'll leave the knowledge with you to decide! But I would urge and suggest avoiding all the possible pain, trauma and ordeal of needing a circumcision.

Hey Doc, "washing YOU foreskin"? Really? C'mon. I hope you don't edit your own videos. It's hard to take a doctor seriously when they spell like a scammer from Nigeria.

I use turtle wax, cleans, waterproofs, and I get a good shine!

[@tomsherwood4650]

I always heard it called polishing your carrot.

[@tommac21]

I agree. If that works for you. Why listen to someone who's never had to polish one 😂

[@madnessbydesign1415]

I can't imagine not cleaning 'under the hood' (if you will), every day. I will say, sometimes, it's better to clean it 'aggressively'... :)

Personal hygiene is something parents, usually moms, should teach children from a very early age. It is amazing how many people have such bad toilet hygiene. Washing one's privates everyday is something every one should be doing. I don't like the western (European) way of greeting by shaking hands, I much prefer the Japanese hands-off polite bow. Far more civilised!

[@marksoliva2332]

Thank you Doctor!! You're videos are SUPER educational, easy to comprehend and things guys like us really need to know.

[@nicoras8803]

God, if this was SUPER educational, would you care to tell us if you ever did this in the past or is the smeg from birth still attached to your dick-end.

Wash it like you wash anything that's valuable to you. You only get one. It doesn't fall off and you grow another one.

[@tonyrome224]

You are so informative! I've shared one of your videos with a bunch of friends. They all laughed at first. Now they've all thanked me, and watch you regularly. I also wrote you about a personal problem I'm having. I don't care if you have a male staffer get back to me. I'm really concerned. Thank you again. And in advance!

Okay... am I the only person who laughed when they cut to the Parmeggiano Reggiano sprinkling on the salad when the word "smegma" was mentioned? 😂🤣 Dr. Malik, you are the best! Thanks for your wonderful and informative videos!

@Jayson Argonaut I mean I've never heard a so-called Credible Source claim female sources for SMEGMA. I mean the word MA is in the word itself. Thanks, for the credible tip or advice as others like to say.

I didn't circumcise my son because I felt bad for him because of the pain

[@nishantpandya1279]

Yes I pull my skin back and wash it gently.

[@burtreynolds2969]

This kinda makes me glad that my foreskin got lopped off.

[@glennmitchell9107]

So, all our ancestors who bathed maybe twice a year, they all died of skin cancer due to smegma build-up on their penises? Does every male produce the same quantity of smegma? I've noticed no smegma on my penis.
