Shaving sure saves me from a lot of pain. Your skin down there gets used to the stubble growth. It's kinda like when you started shaving your face as a young man. At first your face felt raw from lack of shaving skill and the skin getting used to a razor.
As you shave to keep the stubble down, your skin will adapt to your new shaving routine.
Those disposible triple head razors are the gentlest and best to use. Single and double blade razors start off too agressive from the start. Triple head razors start off gentle and will just stop shaving when they get worn. It's better to always use a fresh razor anyway.
