In doing health care for male reproductive organ is not much different with health care for women's reproductive organs. However, the male reproductive organs tend to be more resistant to infection than women. Even so, it would be better if you also maintain the cleanliness and health of your reproductive organs before already affected by the disease are detrimental to you.



many ways to maintain reproductive health in men one of which is as follows:

  1. Always wash your hands before and after urinating in order to always avoid bacteria that may cause infections of the male genital organs (penis).
  2. The penis should be washed with water and a mild soap at least once a day so that is always kept clean.
  3. After washing the genitals, do not forget to dry it with a towel before wearing pants again. It is very important to prevent the onset of mold that can cause itching around the genitals because fungal very easy to grow in areas with humid and wet conditions.
  4. Circumcision. If not circumcised, should be more thorough in cleaning the genital area. Circumcision can maintain the cleanliness and health of your reproductive organs because the glands around the tip of your penis every day produces smegma, a substance is white and slightly sticky. If not cleaned, smegma will decay, mixed with the sweat and bacteria that cause odor and can cause infections. In the circumcised penis, penis head is in an open state so it is easy to clean. In the uncircumcised penis, there is still the skin covering the head of the penis part, called the prepuce (foreskin). Typically, smegma accumulates in the skin behind. To clean, pull the foreskin towards the back, and wash the surface of the head of the penis and also the skin and folds.
