A member asked:

What to do if i am 17 yrs old.i do masturbate every day but recently aftr i masturbate,my penis gives off a fishy smell.can anybody explain please?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Bacteria: There are some bacteria for which semen is a growth factor. They impart a fishy odor to your groin if allowed to overgrow. The same thing happens to women, perhaps even more so. You'll discharge a little bit of semen even after you're done with your main ejaculation. Think about showering up maybe an hour after your enjoy yourself.
