Beware of the consequences of improper genital hair removal for men!

There are several places on the human body with dense hair, such as hair, armpits, and pubic area. Nowadays, in order to realize the pursuit of beauty, many people remove hair from their armpits and pubic area. This not only refers to female friends, but also male friends. Of course, part of the reason for their genital hair removal is hygiene. However, hair removal cannot be done casually. Let's talk about the consequences of improper hair removal.

1. Keeping male pubic hair is not good for private hygiene

Keeping male pubic hair is not conducive to private hygiene to a certain extent. In modern society, humans not only have outer pants, but also underwear. At this time, male pubic hair covers the vulva, which will always keep the vulva in a warm and humid environment, which may promote the growth of mold, trichomonas, pubic lice and various pathogens. British research shows that shaving male pubic hair can reduce the incidence of pubic lice. Pubic lice are a parasite that can be transmitted through sexual contact. They mainly parasitize on the hair around the genitals and anus.

2. Improper cleaning methods may cause

1. Skin scratches

Using a blunt blade on dry skin can easily cause scratches. Self-operation is more likely to cause scratches due to difficulty in direct vision and the many wrinkles on the genitals.

2. Folliculitis

Folliculitis can occur regardless of whether it is razor shaving, tweezing or bee waxing. If combined with infection, it may lead to suppuration and even granuloma formation.

3. Infection worsens

On the one hand, when shaving hair, if tiny skin wounds are caused, it will be easy for pathogens to grow. On the other hand, if there is an infection in a certain part of the body, such as Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus pyogenes, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, HPV, etc., the razor will become a transmission tool, bringing pathogens to wherever the razor reaches.

4. Contact dermatitis

Any hair removal and after-shave repair products have the potential to cause irritation and allergies, leading to contact dermatitis.

Experts point out that the hair of each part of the human body is controlled by different hormone levels. If hair loss occurs in a certain part, pathological reasons need to be ruled out. Perineal hair is mainly controlled by androgens. If a small amount of hair loss occurs, it should not be a big problem. If the amount of hair loss is large, it needs to be taken seriously. Male pubic hair has the function of protecting the local skin and also plays a role in the metabolism of local tissues. Hair loss may be caused by local friction, poor hygiene or inflammation.
