Smegma is produced by bacteria living on your skin. It happens in all the folds, but most especially in the groin because of the combination of warmth and moisture.

As far as I know, you can't get rid of it. Mostly because you can't get rid of the bacteria. If you're having a problem with it returning in less than 24 hours try using an antibacterial soap. (I don't normally recommend this, but sometimes they do have a purpose) Also try eating and drinking things that are more acidic to change your pH levels as this makes you less hospitable to bacteria. Don't re-wear clothing, especially underwear and socks. And be aware that there is always the possibility that it isn't smegma, it might be a yeast infection. That can cause intense odor, itching and whitish clumps in skin folds. If that is the case, you need to get a prescription ointment for it.

Hope this helped.

I'm sorry, the answer is no. The only way to keep it clear is to clean it often
