Has a doctor ever recommended wearing a jockstrap/cup to you? Either in recent years, or growing up at the pediatrician? Curious if any doctors give/gave advice on that.

I have a few very well endowed patients with pendulous scrotum those with long floppy penises while soft that I have recommended extra support. Also for those who wanted to increase sensitivity in the penis to wear a jockstrap all the time for a few weeks.

i also recommended it all male patients for any exercise activities.

In the 1970s, our school hosted doctors to give talks to use teen-age boys about the general topic of hygiene. I distinctly recall two doctors who took the time to discuss athletic supporters and how important they were for us. They even had diagrams of male genitalia which they placed on the black-board and used one of the wooden pointers! My own pediatrician asked me if I wore an athletic supporter for gym class. I cannot recall, however, if any of the traditional audio-visual reel-to-reel films which we had to watch ever included a segment on athletic supporters. But yes, several doctors/pediatricians in my own experience emphasized the need to wear an athletic supporter.

How does it increase sensitivity?

It is held in place more and not getting desensitized by grazing the fabric.

That’s great you had that kind of educational opportunity growing up. I grew up with my mom (parents divorced when I was 10) and only had one real “talk” while growing up, so I had to learn a lot on my own.
