Obesity and sexual development in boys

Whether in the past or today, men's abnormal male sexual function will have an impact on the sexual life of the couple. Long-term sexual disharmony in the couple's life may even lead to divorce. Do you know that obesity in boys affects sexual development? Boys in puberty consume too much food and lack nutrients, and male hormones cannot be released, resulting in penis shrinkage. So, let’s take a practical look at the impact of obesity on boys’ development.

Does obesity affect sexual development in boys?

Relevant experts believe that the main reason is the "egg shell life" that comes from pampering. The so-called "eggshell life" means that children and adolescents live too rich and comfortable lives and consume too much white meat, meat, eggs and drinks for a long time. A large amount of fat and sugar can enter the child's growing body. This, coupled with the lack of labor and exercise since childhood, leads to excessive obesity. Children become more obese and exercise less and less, resulting in polarization and resulting in laziness, arrogance and other undesirable traits and obstacles to physical growth. Many people call it "obese child syndrome".

It is generally believed that obesity causes the posterior lobe of the pituitary gland to become fatty or even missing, which makes it unable to release male hormones. This can lead to testicular enlargement, genital failure, small testicles, short penis, lack of secondary sexual characteristics, virilization and other psychological distortions. Some people also believe that due to obesity since childhood, the interstitium of male testicles is infiltrated by adipose tissue, which in turn affects the production of androgens by Leydig cells.

The important strategy is to strive to restore the natural green diet like rural children, so that children can eat more vegetables and fruits, avoid or eat less meat products, and avoid or drink less drinks with high sugar content. In addition, it is to enhance physical education and labor training opportunities, let them actively participate in meaningful household chores, and allow them to exercise and grow in the wind and rain of nature. For excessively obese children, they should go to relevant specialist clinics for examination immediately. If abnormalities occur, they should be treated early so that male sexual function can be restored as soon as possible.
