Hi, I have a problem that I am embarrassed to talk to anyone about. I have sweaty balls. The sweat itself is not so much a problem, as the smell is. I don't have a girlfriend because I fear that a girl might laugh if she found out about my situation. I am desperate. Please give me some advice on how to eliminate the problem of sweaty balls.
Hi, first of all I should say that I sympathize with you. It is hard to meet girls generally, but I can see that you are in a worse position than most. The smell you are detecting does not come from the sweat itself, but is a result of the bacteria dissolving fatty materials from it. These bacteria are mostly found in armpits and around genital area. Unfortunately, a cure for this kind of problem has not yet been found. You could try some of these tricks to help you with sweaty balls. First of all, wear light clothes made out of natural materials like cotton. This is particularly important when it comes to underwear, because this way your skin can breathe more freely, and your sweating will be reduced. Secondly, the bacteria that are the main problem tend to stick to hair, so shave it off. And thirdly, take regular baths. I know that this may sound redundant, but I believe it to be of great importance. I hope that this will help you with your sweaty balls.

I am a woman and I sweat a lot in my pubic area. I started to use PanOxyl (acne wash) about 6 months ago...best things EVER! The smell comes from bacteria that is formed from sweat; well, PanOxyl kills bacteria!!! So now everynight after bathing with regular soap, I bathe under my arms and also my pubic area using PanOxyl. The box did not say that I could use it in these places but, hey whatever works!

As long as it's a semi-fresh stink, I'm totally cool with a man's sweaty ballls. It adds a muskiness that makes a man a man and makes me a FREAK! A few hours of good man sweat never hurt anybody...though good trimming never hurts either. Good hygiene is important to girls so definitely take care of yourself but no powders please. Now, If you're gorilla hairy and super sweaty on top of it, well, you've got some maintenance to do but you should be just fine for a gal like me. Keep the kiwis clean and the starfruit trimmed up and you just might get a special treat along the Pacific Rim ;-) Keep on sweatin big guy!!

Don't worry, in fact I love the smell of sweaty balls, but not to the point where your eye lashes burn off, just wash daily, and you will be fine. If that doesn't work then put a little bit of deodorant on, it wont hurt your balls

Conrado,

All the advice given has been great and I would follow it! The bathing, goldbond, baby powder, are all great. I would try an internal remedy as well and that is to drink plenty of water to keep your system clean on the inside. You know when you do not drink enough water and your urine is bright gold and has an extra strong smell? The same with sweat...drink lots of water and your sweat will be mostly water and less stank bacteria making the smell less toxic.

hey man I had the same problem. Howard Stern plugged a product on letterman show called NODORO.COM Havnt tried it but I hear it works. Wont stop the sweat.
Carry or have on hand baby wipes and wipe area each bathroom break or as needed. This is what I do. (Ballbath if you will).

Try using jock itch cream or spray (athletes foot medicine also for jock itch treats bacteria). Been having sensitive balls for a while and just caught athletes foot for the first time, reading the directions can also be used around genital area, seems to help. Bathing twice daily helps some individuals are more sinsitive and not as resistant as others. Put socks on befor underware to keep devilish bacteria away, wash hand befor touching your self proper hygiene. In military and its a very irratating at times. Keep wet wipes handy and use medicated gold bond not just baby powder, don't use foot powder it will set you on FIRE (IF YOU TRY IT KEEP WATER CLOSE), tried it one time just thought my sack was uncomfortable. 10 year vet

This is a dilcate issue lol........firstly wash it the balls regularly. Also if it gets really bad shave it the hair and don't forget to splash on lots of aftershave. Brut works wonders. OWW.......also try lemon juice mixed with 2 cloves of garlic ......kills all the germs do it twice a week for two weeks. Hope it works for ya mate.

Baby Wipes are definitely the best idea I have that problem and it usually starts 4hrs after a shower and i'm a person that showers 3 times a day, I start my day with a shower at 6am and then after work around 5:30pm and then again before bed around 10:30pm....The rest of my body always smells great but my balls and penis have their own identity.
