Sensually active men - whether active with a partner or with themselves - often benefit from employing some form of lubricant on the male organ skin. Since every guy is different, the choice of lubricant is highly individual. But to maintain best manhood health, it’s a good idea to spend a little time considering what is best for the member. The following tips can be helpful in making that decision. - Sometimes with a partner; always when self-pleasuring. One of the first decisions to make is when a man needs to use lubricant. For many men, a little lubricant makes the initial moments of coupling smoother. Others, however, rarely opt for lubricant with a partner. Either natural lubrication from themselves and their partners is sufficient, or the barrier protection they use contains some lubricant that does the trick. However, when self-gratifying, lubricant of some kind is almost always necessary. The friction created by rubbing the manhood vigorously with the hand over an extended period of time can result in rubbing the male organ skin raw unless lubricant is involved. While some men find that they get by with a mixture of the natural lubricant from the member and their own saliva, others find use of a lubricant product is necessary. - When to wash up? Another factor for a man to consider is his post-sensual activity routine. Some men keep the member unwashed after coupling or self-stimulation. They may go to sleep happily letting the lingering scent of sensual activity accompany them to dreamland. Others take time to wash and dry the manhood soon after the sensual activity is complete. Why does this matter in terms of lubricant? Because some lubricants may not be good for male organ skin if left on after sensual activity. This especially applies to some water-based lubricants; remnants of the lubricant dry into a powder. If the powder remains on the member for an extended period of time, it can dry it out the skin. - How long is the sensual activity likely to last? Different lubricants tend to stay on the manhood for different lengths of time - especially during self-pleasuring. Water-based lubricants in general get "worn off" the quickest and may need to be reapplied every 5 or 10 minutes. Oil-based and silicone lubes tend to stay on the male organ skin for longer periods of time. Continuing to engage in vigorous sensual activity after the lubricant has diminished can lead to severe skin irritation. - How sensitive is the male organ skin? Men with skin that is prone to dryness or rashing may need to take special care when selecting the right lubricant. A general rule of thumb is that lubricants with fewer ingredients tend to be less harsh. Also, silicone lubricants, as a class, tend to be easier on the skin. While this does not relate to the health of the male organ skin, when using a latex barrier device, remember that oil-based lubricants should be avoided, as they can cause the protection to deteriorate. Also, silicone lubricants are not good for use with silicone sensual toys. Used correctly, a lubricant can help to maintain the health of the male organ skin while providing great pleasure during sensual activity. But lubrication alone is not enough; regular application of a superior manhood health crème (health professionals recommend Man1 Man Oil, which is clinically proven mild and safe for skin) is beneficial in terms of keeping the male organ skin in good overall health and maintaining the general health of the manhood itself. Because moisturization of the male organ skin is essential, using a crème with potent hydrating qualities is key. Look for one that contains a combination of moisturizers, such as Shea butter (an exceptional high end emollient) and vitamin E (one of nature’s finest hydrators). Moisturization alone is not enough; male organ skin also needs to be protected from the oxidative stress associated with free radicals. A crème containing alpha lipoic acid, a powerful antioxidant, is ideal for this job.
