About Sensum+(R) and Reduced Penile Sensitivity
Sensum+(R) is a patented blend of essential oils and natural botanicals including rose oil, sweet almond oil, cinnamon bark oil, and other extracts. The main ingredient of Sensum+(R) (cinnamon oil) works by activating the Transient Receptor Potential A1 (TRPA-1) channels responsible for the heat and cold sensation of the skin and results in an increase of sensation that current users welcome and appreciate. The safety and efficacy of Sensum+(R) was evaluated in 2 post marketing survey studies in circumcised and non-circumcised men. A total of 382 men used Sensum+(R) twice daily for fourteen consecutive days followed by once daily for 8 weeks and as needed thereafter.
