Glans getting more sensitive -- underwear fabric recommendations?

I did a search and I couldn’t find anything on this specific topic.

I have noticed that my glans is getting more sensitive as I get further into my second month of PE. I am cut.

I am not doing anything harsh to it, just light jelquing and stretching.

I think it is a good thing. Except when it comes to underwear.

Currently I wear a cotton/poly blend boxer. I swear in the last two weeks they have started to feel like they are made of BURLAP.

Has anybody else had this issue? Any recommendations for underwear fabrics or specific brands of underwear?

Dunno, maybe this is the solution:

The Your-Skin® Cone
The Your-Skin Restoration Cone allows you to comfortably keep your own skin rolled up over your glans. This allows your glans and "inner" skin (between circ scar and glans) to regain natural health and sensitivity.

I recently noticed this. The past few days my glans has been very sensitive. Like you said my underwear are irritating it. I have been doing PE on and off for about a year. I have been hanging more consistently lately. I notice that after a long hanging session that my glans is quite swollen. I am wondering if that is the culprit.

Otherwise it is a mystery to me too. I’ll post if I come up with anything.

Is increase in penis sensation a common side effect of PE?

Fryguy09, I don’t know. In general better penis health and stronger erections are considered a “side-effect” of PE.

In my case it is possible that since my glans is a little bigger now, perhaps it is that there is more surface area and that is what is causing it.

Well you will probably have to stop wearing underwear.

Ha Ha!!!!! Pretty sure denim will feel worse!

I am going on an underwear shopping trip this weekend. Silk is probably out of the question, but maybe a higher thread count cotton or something.

Do they make Velvet Boxers? :-,

milwaukeesbest thread on Ginkgo Biloba made me realize that this glans sensitivity issue may be related to that rather than PE.

My Diary While On Ginkgo Biloba

I started taking 240mg a day of Ginkgo Biloba at the end of January, so it could well be that is what is causing the glans senitivity.

Again it is a very good thing except the whole underwear part.

By the way — I found a internet underwear company that has a summary of different underwear fabrics:

Men's Underwear Fabric Glossary

I searched the page for "soft" and came up with a few possibilities for my shopping trip this weekend

I”m not a chemist, but poly threads are smoother than cotton, however, they are much harder. So their tendency to “cut” is more intense, particularly if some poly threads are broken or frayed.

Pure cotton would probably be the best bet. And for your glans, you might try spreading a very tiny smear of white vaseline there to make the skin smoother, and lessen the abrasion against the fabric.

Probably other creams will do but vaseline will stay there longer. But you only need a smear.

Petitfaun — thanks! I was thinking along the same lines — I am thinking that a tightly woven high thread count cotton would be good, certainly better than my 3 for 8.00 boxers. The Vaseline tip is good too — I will try that right now!

I already vigorously rub lotion onto my cock nearly everyday. hehehehe

I picked up some 100% cotton boxer briefs (C2 xist) and some 100% cotton boxers (some kind of house brand) for kinda cheap at the Nordstrom’s Rack.

It is a world of difference — much much better. So bye bye fruit of the loom…

Unfortunately I only have 4 pair, so I gotta hit the discount mall this week and get more.

I’m not sure about the names you mention - is C2 C-IN2 and xist 2xist? - but both those brands are carried at Lingerie | Underwear | Freshpair, and Freshpair does free shipping on orders over $25, They regularly have good sales, and their service is good. Worth checking out.

OOPS — my mistake — looking at the waist band it says 2(x) ist. Obviously I am easily confused — this is my first trip out of Fruit of The Loom territory.

They were 6.00 a pair at the Nordstrom’s Rack - last years model in black.

Thanks for the tip on freshpair.com — I see they are having a PRESIDENT’S DAY SALE. Hey, President Washington and President Lincoln — I need some new underwear!

At least they have the good taste not to portray President Washington in a thong.

Seriously, though, Freshpair is a pretty classy site, and they offer a lot of information about their products, which is useful if you’re looking for more specifics on how the underwear is structured. I’ve been meaning to start a top ten list of early signs that PE is working for you. One of my early signs was that my underwear did not fit the way it used to, so I’ve gotten a little more particular about my underwear out of necessity.
