How Aging Affects Your Penisβ Sensitivity

As men age, especially after 40, they may notice a decreased penile sensitivity. This can be attributed to several key factors.
Decreased Nerve Sensitivity
Nerves in the penis become less sensitive over time. This requires more stimulation, touch, and a longer duration to achieve the same level of arousal as when you were younger.
Health Conditions
Several health factors can diminish blood flow to the penis. Certain medical conditions like high blood pressure, elevated cholesterol levels, weight gain, and insufficient exercise can all contribute to this issue. Consequently, the sensitivity of the penis, especially the glans, may be affected.
Low Testosterone Levels
Testosterone levels gradually decline with age, decreasing about 1% yearly after 35. This means a man could have 20% less testosterone by 55 compared to his levels at 35. As a result, both sexual sensitivity and the strength of erections can be affected by this hormonal change.
Nerve Problems
Health problems like diabetes and injuries to the penis can damage nerves, which can lessen how sensitive the penis feels.
Lifestyle Factors
Consuming excessive amounts of alcohol, defined as more than fourteen drinks per week, and the habit of smoking cigarettes can adversely impact the sensitivity of the penis.
Enlarged Prostate and Medications
Another factor is an enlarged prostate or specific medications. Medications such as those used to treat depression or high blood pressure can reduce sensation in the penis.
Physical Changes
Aging affects the foreskin on the penis, resulting in it losing its elasticity, and the muscles involved in erections weaken due to less frequent use. Additionally, scar tissue can build up inside the penis, which further reduces sensitivity.
Reversing Decreased Sensitivity and Improving Erection
The good news is that you can take steps to improve sensitivity and erectile function. Quitting smoking and reducing alcohol consumption can significantly benefit nerve health. Regular exercise, including pelvic floor exercises, strengthens muscles crucial for erections.
In addition, maintaining healthy testosterone levels through checks and potential supplements is important. Stress reduction techniques like acupuncture can help, as anxiety often contributes to erectile difficulties. Lastly, using a penis pump can improve blood flow, reduce scar tissue, and enhance sensitivity, making it a valuable tool for overall penile health.
Final Thoughts
Sexual changes are common as we age. Feeling less sensitive or having trouble getting or keeping an erection can be frustrating. However, there are steps you can take to improve your sexual health. Eating well, managing stress, and trying treatments like testosterone or penis pumps can help. Also, always remember that it's possible to enjoy a satisfying sex life at any age.
