from my experience, the saddle shape and fit contribute to issues with numbness or pain, not the chamois.
I’ve been to a urologist as well and he said there is zero chance your “boys won’t work” despite the 5000 mile average I ride annually, unless I was mashing them on purpose. My children serve as evidence
the point of the chamois is to increase comfort especially for long distances, not to prevent injury.
