How to exercise to reduce glans sensitivity

Interventions to reduce glans sensitivity can be achieved through psychological adjustment, local desensitization training, behavioral therapy, pelvic floor muscle exercises, and traditional Chinese medicine conditioning. Oversensitivity may be related to factors such as dense nerve distribution, long-term insufficient stimulation, or chronic inflammation, and usually manifests as symptoms such as premature ejaculation and contact pain.

1. Psychological adjustment

Reduce arousal through distraction during sexual intercourse and gradually extend the intimacy time. To avoid excessive anxiety or deliberate pursuit of duration, you can practice rhythm control with your partner. The use of narcotic drugs is not recommended.

2. Local desensitization training

Rinse the glans with warm water and rub gently every day, gradually transitioning to a dry towel. During bathing, the foreskin can be continuously everted to expose the glans, starting from 5 minutes and gradually increasing to 30 minutes. This process takes more than 3 months.

3. Behavioral therapy

Use the stop-and-go technique, pausing when you are about to reach a critical point and continuing when the excitement subsides. Train 3 times a week and use Kegel exercises to enhance control. Those with severe premature ejaculation can be combined with 5-hydroxytryptamine reuptake inhibitors such as dapoxetine tablets and paroxetine hydrochloride tablets.

4. Pelvic floor muscle exercises

Perform Kegel exercises every day to contract the anal sphincter, lasting 10 seconds each time and then relaxing, repeat for 20 sets. May improve perineal blood circulation and enhance control. Most patients report decreased sensitivity after 6 weeks.

5. Traditional Chinese Medicine conditioning

People with insufficient kidney qi can take Chinese patent medicines such as Jingui Shenqi Pills and Wuzi Yanzong Pills, combined with moxibustion at the Guanyuan point. Longdan Xiegan Pills are recommended for liver meridian damp-heat syndrome, which needs to be treated by a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner based on syndrome differentiation. Avoid self-abuse of aphrodisiac drugs.

Wear loose-fitting cotton underwear during exercise to reduce friction irritation and avoid over-cleansing the glans with soap. Supplement appropriate amounts of zinc and vitamin E in your diet, and avoid spicy and irritating foods. If it is accompanied by inflammatory manifestations such as foreskin redness and swelling, urethral discharge, etc., you need to seek medical treatment promptly to rule out balanitis or urinary system infection. Those who do not see improvement for a long time are recommended to undergo penile nerve sensitivity testing.
