Penis hygiene
Wash your penis every day. Pull the foreskin back and wash the glans with water. If you wash your penis regularly below the foreskin, a circumcision for hygienic reasons is not necessary.
Do not use perfumed soap. Use neutral soap that does not cause irritation. It is best to not use any soap at all.
Some men shave their pubic hair. This can be done for reasons of attractiveness, but it is not necessary for good hygiene.
