Recently an athlete got a frostbite of a very personal nature during a competition in Finland.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you like winter sports or are into cold water swimming, you may be asking yourself, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cCan cold weather cause ED?\u201d<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> In short, the answer is yes, it can. But don\u2019t hide your skiing gear in the closet just yet. There are ways to protect your private parts from the harsh elements.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Cross-Country Skier Gets \u201cWinter Penis\u201d<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Winter sports became a hot topic in 2023 when one of the FIS competition contestants <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/sports\/cross-country-skiers-private-parts-freeze-sub-zero-finland-event-2023-11-26\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">froze his penis<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in sub-zero conditions. Swedish athlete Calle Halfvarsson took part in a 20 kilometer cross-country skiing run, wearing only a thin sports suit. Temperatures were at 5 Fahrenheit (-15 Celsius) that day.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As he rushed to the tent after a completed race, the man said he lost all feeling in his private parts. It took him a whole ten minutes to warm his body up again and get sensation back.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Halfvarsson was lucky. At the Beijing Olympic Games, another cross-country skier, Remi Lindholm from Finland, got an even more <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/theconversation.com\/polar-penis-the-hazards-of-winter-sports-177654\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">serious frostbite<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and reported \u201cunbearable\u201d discomfort as he was trying to warm his genitals.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>The Impact of Freezing Temperatures on Male Genitals<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even if you\u2019re not a pro athlete, you may be exposing your genitals to low temperatures. In his memoir, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vanityfair.com\/style\/2023\/01\/prince-harry-frostbite-story\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Prince Harry famously admitted to getting an intimate frostbite<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> while on a charity expedition to the North Pole.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And there\u2019s the growing popularity of cold water swimming. Many people are drawn into icy waters in the hopes of increasing longevity.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/2.jpeg-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-36223\" src=\"https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/2.jpeg-2.jpg\" alt=\"man going into an iced lake\" width=\"780\" height=\"520\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/2.jpeg-2.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/2.jpeg-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/2.jpeg-2-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 780px) 100vw, 780px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cold water baths and swimming expose the penis to extremely low temperatures.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most men can attest that cold has an instant impact on the penis and testicles \u2014 and any woman who\u2019s watched Seinfeld. But what exactly is happening to the penis (and your body in general) when it\u2019s subjected to extreme cold?<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Vasoconstriction. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When it\u2019s freezing and you\u2019re not properly dressed, the body seeks ways to conserve energy. Blood vessels narrow and circulation is reduced, especially in the \u201cextremities,\u201d that is your hands, arms and legs, and yes, the penis, in an attempt to keep the internal organs and brain warm.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Stress response.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Humans were designed to keep a steady body temperature. If that balance is challenged, we react with stress. After two hours in cold air, our <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tandfonline.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.3402\/ijch.v61i3.17474\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">levels of the stress hormone cortisol rise<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. More than three hours in the cold will raise adrenaline levels, too.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Hypothermia.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> When your body temperature drops to 15 Fahrenheit (35 Celsius), it\u2019s called hypothermia. The condition can be life-threatening. But even less serious exposure to cold can have a negative impact on your overall health.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Psychological distress.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Unless you\u2019re like Iceman from X-Men, you probably <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/blog\/erectile-dysfunction\/the-dark-days-of-winter-really-can-affect-your-sex-life\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">don\u2019t enjoy the piercing cold<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Our minds react with stress and anxiety when faced with unfavorable weather conditions. It\u2019s a survival mechanism \u2014 we know we need to find shelter to stay warm.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Cold Weather and Erectile Dysfunction<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With all that physical and mental stress caused by the cold, are winter athletes (or any man who enjoys cold showers or baths) at a greater risk of erectile dysfunction?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Erections depend on blood flow into the penis. If your blood vessels are constricted due to cold and stress, your ability to get and maintain an erection may become compromised.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fortunately, most men who freeze their penises are able to regain sexual function once their body temperature and other important functions stabilize. As of today, researchers haven\u2019t found a direct and long-term causal relationship between <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/blog\/erectile-dysfunction\/is-erectile-dysfunction-worse-in-winter\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">winter and ED<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The only exception: In extreme cases (such as high-altitude climbing), you can get serious frostbite resulting in <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC8092677\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">tissue damage<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Typically, it\u2019s the fingers or toes that suffer and sometimes have to be amputated. But without enough insulation, the penis could meet the same fate.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/3.jpeg-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-36224\" src=\"https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/3.jpeg-2.jpg\" alt=\"man hiking on snowy mountains\" width=\"780\" height=\"477\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/3.jpeg-2.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/3.jpeg-2-300x183.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/3.jpeg-2-768x469.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 780px) 100vw, 780px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">High altitude mountaineering comes with a high risk of severe frostbite.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<h3>How to Protect Your Privates From Frostbite<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re not climbing Mount Everest or hiking the Arctic Circle, the risk of freezing your penis or compromising its erectile function due to the cold is low.

It\u2019s good to stay outdoors and move in the winter.
