After Having Sex With My Girlfriend, Skin Peels Off My Penis. What Is It?

If you're experiencing peeling skin on your penis after intercourse, there are a number of possible causes. I'll discuss a few of them below but, for any sexual health issues, the best solution is always seeking advice from your healthcare provider.

What is the peeling skin on my penis? So you've just had sex and. Your partner is probably still writhing around on the bed in ecstasy from how great the experience was, but you're left sitting their worried about the skin that keeps peeling off your penis. Your concerns are very understandable.

The first thing to do is to ascertain that the peeling substance is actually skin.

As one user already mentioned below, during sex the female's vaginal wall secretes natural lubricants that help coitus along. After sex it is possible that this lubricant solidifies onto your penis and may take the appearance of peeling skin.

To make sure this isn't the case, I'd recommend washing your penis gently with some (warm!) water after sex. If the substance comes off fairly easily, it is possible that we're dealing with something other than skin.

Peeling skin on my penis! What should I do? If you've managed to establish that we're definitely dealing with peeling skin, the next thing to do would be to look at your routine and figure out whether there's anything that you're doing that might be contributing to this peeling skin.

• Are you using condoms? Sometimes condoms have a spermicidal agent that can cause a reaction in some men.
• Are you using any lubricant, soap or other product on your penis? It is possible that one of these products cause dry and peeling skin.

In most cases, I'd recommend you try moisturising the skin on your penis (no, you don't need to tell the pretty sales assistant working at the Bodyshop why you're buying that tub of Tea Tree and Aloe Vera body butter). If symptoms persist, I'd advise visiting your doctor to rule out conditions like eczema or psoriasis.
