Alcool bathing, would it work?

How a strange topic... No, I am not starting a new thread about
alcool injections in the balls. Actually I propose something much softer.
You may have learned already that ethanol is toxic for the Leydig
cells and destroy them. The Leydig cells are found in the balls
and responsible to produce the testosterone. Ethanol is the main
component of alcoolic beverages. Some studies have shown that
alcool-dependant people have lower testosterone levels and
decreased libido.
Recently I learned that ethanol is absorbed through the skin also.
So I had an idea. It may work - or more likely not. Why not bathing
the balls in a small recipient containing a strong alcoolic beverage?
It seems quite safe (not needle, etc...)
Expected side effect is mainly skin irritation - that can be handled
easily (use skin cream, let the skin rest for some days etc...). I do
not know if the ethanol will diffuse enough through the skin to reach
the Leydig cells (even with low concentration). Then, I decided
to test the process on myself. For safety reason, I think that it
is better not to use denatured alcool (even if it is suitable for skin).
So I am using a beverage containing 40% ethanol (everclear would
be better, but I do not find it here)
Until now, the "bathing" never lasted more than 30 minutes, few
times per week.
The feeling is not painful, but rather a quite good heat sensation.
I use a small piece of cloth to tie temporarily the balls during the
alcool bathing (but not strongly tightened)
From my feeling only, I would say that the alcool diffuse
quite deep in the balls. But this is only a feeling. I will report again
to told you whether I detect any effect that would account for
lowered testosterone.
