How to Wear a Cockring: Positioning, Comfort and Tips

By: Christy S

After you've chosen your perfect penis ring, you need to put it on the right way. It needs to fit well on your body and feels comfortable. The right-sized ring can help with premature ejaculation and erectile dysfunction, or just give you the rock-hard erections you're looking for. A wrong size or poorly fitted item can lead to cell damage, ruining your sex life.

Although adjustable and stretchy cock rings can accommodate most penis sizes, everyone is unique. Thus, it's beneficial to know how to put your sex ring on quickly and safely.

All About Cock Rings: Basic Concepts

A cock ring is a circular band designed to be worn at the base of the penis, that restricts blood flow from the penis. Additional blood in the penis enhances an erection, making it look bigger and stay erect longer.

Originally designed as a solution for erectile dysfunction, cock rings and penis pumps have been used for centuries before the advent of adult sex toys. Today they help users get an erection, maintain the erection, and even supersize their erection in just a few minutes time.

Available in many styles, textures and materials, modern sex rings offer a lot of benefits, from enhancing sexual performance to additional stimulation. They increase sensitivity in the area, promoting positive sexual experiences.

The most popular styles of cock rings are closed circle and lasso-style (adjustable rings). Stretchy and adjustable options are typically made from soft silicone and other stretchy materials. They are body-safe and easy to use and clean with warm water. Solid cock rings can be made from stainless steel or glass or have a metal core with a silicone finish. Either way, they aim to provide more acute pressure on the base of the penis and require a professional approach from the user.

A vibrating cock ring powered by a bullet vibrator can bring a lot of fun into couple and solo play. Vibrator rings are couples' toys that are often used as a clitoral stimulator or vibrator for clitoral stimulation during sex. Double cock and ball rings features two constriction bands and often come with ball stretchers for extra stimulation and enhanced sexual satisfaction.

Before You Start: Be Prepared

Getting prepared not only feels good, but it can also protect your sexual health and ensure a positive experience. Before putting on your sex toy, be prepared with everything you need for the session.

Trim pubic hair. Getting hair trapped in any type of ring can be a mood-killer. Make sure the area is properly moisturized. Trim your pubic hair in the direction of hair growth to reduce itching.

Use lubrication. Make sure you have your favorite sexual lubricant nearby. Apply a generous amount of lube to the flaccid or semi-erect penis, as well as inside the circular band. This will make it easier to take the ring off when you're done. If you're planning to use a cock ring and butt plug combo toy for anal stimulation, lubricate the anus as well.

Play safely. Different kinds of lubricants work better for different purposes. A water-based lubricant is often the safest option as it won't damage silicone toys (like silicone lubes) and safe to use with latex condoms (oil-based formulas can cause damage to the toy). It's also body-safe and can be used for all of your sexual needs: added sensations, penetrative sex and masturbation.

Focus on Health Topics. Follow the manufacturer's instructions and ensure proper cleaning once you're done. Make sure to wash your sex toy with warm water and mild soap after each use. It will help to prevent bacterial growth and keep you safe. People with medical conditions should seek medical advice before using the product, since additional pressure may interrupt normal blood flow.

How to Put On a Cock Ring

Put on the penis ring before sexual activity - when your penis is flaccid or semi-erect. Trying to wear it on an erect penis is not practical and can be very uncomfortable. Some people prefer to put a cock ring on a semi-erect penis. The reason is a totally flaccid penis may struggle to get enough blood in it with a ring already in place.

If you use a condom, put on your sex toy before wearing the condom. This way you will avoid accidental damage and give the condom enough space. You don't want to pull too hard as you need to leave a little space for semen to collect.

If you use a classic one-circle design that wraps around the base of the penis, in front of the balls, then place it on the top of your lubed-up penis. Place one hand over the testicles and the other on the shaft. Gently slide it down until it reaches the base. Use your finger to stretch the ring.

If you use a double cock ring that sits behind the balls, then gently push one testicle, then the other. With your penis pointing downwards, slowly push it through.

How to Get a Firmer Erection Using a Cock Ring

Once you have it on, give yourself a minute. Get used to the feeling of a snug grip at the base of the shaft and balls. Make sure it feels comfortable. Pay attention to any parts that feel uneasy, pinchy or pressured in any way.

If you're using a vibrating cock ring with a built-in motor, position it so that it can reach the targeted erogenous zones. For instance, clitoral vibrator rings should be positioned on top, while perineum massagers should be positioned underneath. Try it out and make adjustments if needed.

Engage in sexual activities as you normally would. Enjoy you favorite sex positions or try something new. Cock rings are amazing sex enhancers for sexual intercourse, oral sex, hand-jobs and solo play. Have fun!
