Numbness in the penis from cycling?

Newbie

I’ve noticed that I frequently have the numbness in my penis after cycling. I’m so worried and I even think about quitting cycling. There are certain researches which claim that cycling can serious damage reproductive organs. I don’t know whether that’s true, but I can say this is a pretty unpleasant sensation. Have you ever experienced numbness in penis from cycling? What can I do to prevent it?

Many cyclists have experienced this sensation. I’m also scared and I seriously consider switching to running or swimming, though I like cycling very much. These researches have been conducted both in USA and Europe and the results were the same – sometimes during cycling penile numbness occurs and it’s due to the constant pressure on blood vessels and nerves. This can bring about inability to maintain erection. These problems in some cases can last only a few days but sometimes they can last even a few months. If nothing is seriously damaged, everything returns to normal after a while. One of the solutions is buying a good saddle. Nowadays there are silicon saddles which are pretty comfortable. You should also change a position in the saddle or stand while you’re cycling.

Try as wide a range of saddles as you can and make sure you seek advice on being correctly fitted and positioned on your bike.

Have a look at the range of saddles that were created following extensive research into these delicate matters.
