Dangerous sexual fashion alert: put toothpaste on the genitals | Chronic

A dangerous mania of spreading toothpaste on the intimate parts of young men and women has set off all the alarms in the UK.

Various videos circulating in the networks indicate that this practice improves sexual performance and the duration of sexual intercourse.

However, health professionals quickly denied that putting toothpaste – both on the penis and in the vagina – improves performance in confidentiality.

These products could cause burns, blisters, infections and, in men, erectile dysfunction.

Chemical consequences

The pharmacist of the online medical service "Doctor-4-u", James O 'Loan, said in statements to the English Daily Mail newspaper that "There is no evidence that the application of toothpaste on intimate parts can help combat sexual performance issues".

The professional assures that "Far from causing the desired effect, this new fashion can cause burns or blisters on the genitals because of chemicals – including bleaches and peppermint oils – that contain the majority of pasta ".

"I would say to anyone considering using this technique to quit and give up. It will not do anything to combat premature ejaculation or erectile dysfunction, despite the claims of these videos. "O & # 39; Loan pointed out.
