Most men are careless, and their requirements for cleaning are not as high as those of women. However, sanitation is an important step to protect the male reproductive system and requires more attention from men. In particular, the foreskin is very important for the whole reproductive system, and it is very easy to be damaged. It hides dirt and causes disease. So how do men care for the foreskin?
Effect of prepuce on men

The foreskin is as sensitive as the fingertips and lips. It contains extremely rich and diverse specific nerve receptors with higher density than any other part of the penis. These special nerve endings can distinguish the sense of movement, subtle temperature changes and the sense of hierarchy of tissue structure.
Prevention function
Just as the eyelids protect the eyes, the foreskin protects the penis and keeps it soft, moist and sensitive. At the same time, it can also maintain a certain temperature of the penis, adjust the pH balance and have a cleaning effect. The penis itself does not contain sebaceous glands. It relies on the sebum secreted by the foreskin to lubricate and maintain the health of the penis.
Lubrication
The foreskin plays a lubricating role in sexual life. The structure of the foreskin is exquisite and can slide freely, which is unmatched by any other organ. The inner plate of the foreskin has a secretory effect. The secretion, like lubricant, can increase the smoothness and pleasure of sexual life.
Immune protection
The opening of all body organs is the first line of defense for body immune prevention. The gland of the foreskin can secrete anti-bacterial and viral proteins, such as lysozyme, which also exists in tears and mother's milk. Specific epithelial cells, such as Langerhans cells, are components of the immune system and are rich in the outer surface of the foreskin. Plasma cells of the prepuce mucosa can secrete immunoglobulin, which is an antibody to prevent infection.
