What if our push for “male involvement” in reproductive health is unintentionally becoming male permission?

We talk a lot about getting men more involved in sexual and reproductive health

There is a question we don't ask enough:

At what point does involvement become control?🤔

[Gig_Nurse @Akwaowo9]

As a man, if one of your testicles hangs lower than the other, this is what you should know.

Roughly 85% of males have their left testicle hanging lower than their right.

So know that it is not a defect but just a natural and completely normal occurring anatomy.

When your female child begins puberty, the colour of her vulva may change.

This happens because estrogen increases during puberty, making the vulva tissue to thicken and matures.

The colour will depend on skin tone, ethnicity, genetics, and even individual variation.

Have you ever finished having sex and instead of feeling amazing, you suddenly feel nauseous, lightheaded, crampy, or just overall wrong?

It could be vasovagal syncope.

Why do most women in Nigeria shy away from using this?

It's a tampon.

Found a write-up that spoke to me on someone's timeline.

Used it to record a voiceover

Created an Chibili image of me with ChatGPT

Tweaked it into a video with the voiceover using Mirage.

How do you rate this?

There’s a lot of confusion out there, so let’s clear things up.

Masturbation generally DOES NOT have a significant impact on sperm count.

Why?

Because your body is always producing sperm

[Gig_Nurse @Akwaowo9]

If you’re worried or have issues as it pertains to your fertility or sperm count, don’t rely on "Dr. Google".

Consult a medical professional for personalized advice.

The idea of a "loose vagina" is often used to shame women but the vagina is amazing. It’s designed to stretch and recover.

[Gig_Nurse @Akwaowo9]

Can a vagina be LOOSE?

The vagina is elastic so it stretches and snaps back.

It’s designed to accommodate penetration (penis, toys, fingers) and childbirth (baby, placenta).

[Gig_Nurse @Akwaowo9]

1. Childbirth via vaginal delivery as it may not fully return to its original shape, especially after multiple births.

2. Age because estrogen levels drop (starting around your 40s), the vaginal muscles may lose some elasticity.
