What causes itchy testicles?

Men should pay special attention to their reproductive health issues. Once any abnormal phenomenon is found, they should go to the hospital for examination and treatment in time. Testicular itching is sometimes caused by some bad living habits, and improper wearing of men's underwear can also cause testicular itching.

1. Due to the special body structure of men, and because that special part is very important, men's underwear actually has a great impact on men. However, because men are more casual in nature, they often endure and ignore the discomfort caused by poorly designed underwear.

2. Men's sexual function and fertility are closely related to the temperature of the testicles. The contraction of the scrotum is to regulate the temperature of the testicles to be 2 to 3 degrees below the body temperature. If you touch the scrotum with your hand, you will feel cooler than other parts of the body. Only when the testicles are 2 to 3 degrees below the body temperature can the secretion of testosterone reach the best. Testosterone can promote the production of sperm, improve the quality of sperm and enhance sexual function.

3. Most traditional underwear on the market are designed with double layers in the front, which wraps the penis and scrotum together, making the scrotum in a hot and humid environment for a long time. Over time, it is easy to cause scrotal eczema, sexual dysfunction, severe varicocele and even infertility. The unreasonable design of underwear is the main external cause of scrotal eczema and causes scrotal itching.

4. External factors

① The living and working environment is humid, and the air humidity is relatively high;

②External stimulation, cold or hot, excessive sweating, excessive scratching, etc.;

③ Tight underwear, friction with foreign objects, and wearing synthetic underwear can induce scrotal eczema;

Scrotal eczema can also be acquired through sexual transmission. Clinically, 20% of scrotal eczema patients are infected through unhealthy sexual transmission.
