Both men and women hope to have a harmonious and beautiful life, which is actually inseparable from their reproductive health issues. Therefore, in life, it is necessary to pay attention to learning to check their own bodies and pay attention to any abnormal situations. Let's take a look at how men can self check their personal health?
The testis is located in the scrotum and grows rapidly with sexual maturity. In old age, it shrinks and becomes smaller with the decline of sexual function. During self inspection, gently pinch both testicles with both hands. Normally, they are approximately 4-5cm long and 2-3cm wide, forming a slightly flattened oval shape with a smooth surface and a slightly hard texture. If the testicles are small and soft, it may be due to poor development or some diseases, such as mumps or varicocele when young, which may affect fertility and sexual function in the future. It is best to consult a regular hospital. Some people have one large and one small testicle, one high and one low testicle. If the difference is not significant, it is normal.
The scrotum is located below the penis and is used to protect the testes and epididymis. It is very sensitive to external stimuli, so it is important to pay attention to protection and avoid excessive external stimulation. When checking the scrotum, the main attention should be paid to whether it is red and swollen, and whether there are abnormal lumps inside the scrotum. If so, further examination is required at the hospital.
The penis is the main organ for male sexual activity. Externally, it appears as a long conical or cylindrical shape with varying thickness, with two states: relaxed and erect. The skin that protects the penis is called the foreskin. Under normal erections, the glans will be exposed outside the foreskin, but some men's foreskin wraps around the glans, preventing it from fully exposing. This condition is called phimosis. Some may also cause pain during sexual activity, which can affect sexual activity. In some cases, the outer opening of the foreskin is too small, and the foreskin cannot be flipped outward. This condition is called phimosis, which can seriously affect sexual life and even affect fertility. At this time, it is necessary to actively seek medical attention from a regular hospital.
In fact, many small problems with the genitalia are difficult to detect in daily life, so it is easy for us to overlook our reproductive health. Therefore, it is recommended that men, after reading the above self check methods, should remind themselves to pay attention to the examination work of sexual reproductive health care.
