Why the Itchy Member? Could Be Thrush

• Things are going along fine for a guy and
  then suddenly WHAM! an insistent itchy member
  rears its ugly head. He tries ignoring it, but
  when an itchy member demands attention, theres
  little choice but to give in and scratch - and
  hope that beautiful woman at the end of the bar
  doesnt notice his surreptitious hand movements.
  This is when the guy asks why he hasnt been
  paying closer attention to his male organ health.
  And maybe he should have sometimes an itchy
  member occurs for a definite manhood health
  issue, and often it is the condition commonly
  called thrush.

A yeasty situation

• Most men have heard of thrush, but few know
  what it is other than a real nuisance. In fact,
  thrush is a yeast infection (known medically as
  candidiasis). Finding this out often surprises a
  man. Yeast infections are well known as a
  womans problem, so many dudes are shocked to
  find out that their manhood has become a breeding
  ground for yeast.
•  
• Candida, the yeast fungus that causes thrush,
  is actually very common. All our bodies contain
  some candida, which in the proper amounts and
  proper locations is actually beneficial. But the
  member is not one of the places where it is
  welcome. And when it does situate itself there
  and starts to spread out, it causes a rash-like
  situation which, in addition to looking kind of
  uninviting, is an itch-fest just waiting to
  happen.

• And, fair warning thrush doesnt always
  restrict itself to the manhood. It can pop up
  elsewhere on the body, including in the mouth and
  on the tongue.
• Often, thrush pops up and creates an itchy
  member situation because it was passed on from a
  partner. But, considering the prevalence of
  female yeast infections, this doesnt happen as
  often as would be expected. Exactly why is not
  known, but guys can be thankful for this fact, or
  they would be thrush-filled far more often.

• So if its not coming from a partner, where
  is it coming from? Primary culprits for causing
  thrush include

• - Sloppy hygiene. Sometimes a guy has no one
  but himself to blame for his thrush. A fungus
  like candida is always shopping around for a
  moist, warm spot to call home and if its a
  little dirty, so much the better. So guys who
  dont clean the member sufficiently or who allow
  the basement to get too sweaty and aromatic are
  setting up a for rent sign that candida just
  cant ignore.
•  
• - Antibiotics. Theyre great for fighting many
  kinds of stubborn infections, but antibiotics can
  sometimes set the stage of a thrush invasion. The
  tablets kill off both harmful and helpful
  bacteria and the presence of the helpful
  bacteria is a deterrent to the thrush fungus.

• - Diabetes. Men with diabetes are more likely
  to attract thrush than men without. Essentially,
  this is because the urine of a diabetic man tends
  to be more sugary. When he urinates, droplets
  left on the member dry and leave behind the sugar
  and the candida fungus has a sweet tooth.
  (Seriously, the sugar does provide sustenance to
  the fungus.)
• - Immune system problem. A compromised immune
  system, whether chronic or acute, negatively
  impacts the bodys ability to keep candida under
  control. Unchecked, it multiplies and reaches the
  point where it becomes a nuisance.

• Men whose itchy member is due to thrush need
  to keep their manhood good and clean. Regularly
  applying a top drawer male organ health crème
  (health professionals recommend Man1 Man Oil,
  which is clinically proven mild and safe for
  skin) after washing can help. Keeping the skin
  healthy can also discourage thrush from
  establishing a beachhead, so find a crème with
  both a high-end emollient (think Shea butter) and
  an effective hydrator (think vitamin E), which
  together can keep the skin from developing cracks
  and patches. The crème should also include
  vitamin A, the anti-bacterial properties of which
  can also make the manhood more inhospitable to
  the fungus.
