Choosing the Right Penis Plug: Materials, Types, and Options

Beginners Penis Plug Guide – When exploring urethral play, selecting the right penis plug is crucial. As a beginner, you need a penis plug suited to your experience level. Take time to consider materials and types before making your decision.

Penis Plug Materials

Penis plugs come in various materials, including silicone, surgical steel, glass, beads, and mixed materials. However, not all materials are safe. Below is a list of safe and unsafe materials to help you choose wisely.

Safe Materials

For those new to urethral play, we recommend body-safe surgical steel or medical-grade silicone penis plugs.

Silicone

Penis plugs made from body-safe silicone have a smooth surface with a soft, pliable, and flexible structure. Some silicones are porous, so extra care is needed when cleaning to maintain hygiene.

Surgical Steel

Penis plugs made of body-safe surgical steel are highly recommended. They are non-porous, durable, and easy to clean, with no cuts, tears, or imperfections that can cause harm.

Importance of Using Safe Materials

Urethral play can be an exciting experience, but it must be approached with caution. Using the wrong materials can lead to severe injuries and medical emergencies.

Silicone and Surgical Steel

Always choose body-safe materials like medical-grade silicone or surgical steel. These materials are non-porous, easy to clean, and designed to be safe for the body.

Hygiene

Proper cleaning of your penis plug is crucial to avoid infections. Body-safe silicone and surgical steel are easy to sterilize, ensuring your safety during play.

Making the Right Choice

When choosing your first penis plug, consider the following tips:

1. Start Small: Begin with a smaller plug to get accustomed to the sensation.
2. Choose Safe Materials: Stick to body-safe surgical steel or medical-grade silicone.
3. Prioritize Hygiene: Clean your plug thoroughly before and after each use.
4. Listen to Your Body: Pay attention to your comfort and stop if you feel pain or discomfort.

 

Unsafe Materials

Certain materials are unsafe for urethral play. Avoid using glass, beads, mixed materials, or household objects as penis plugs. They can cause serious harm and health problems.

A study by the University of California documented 17 patients who used dangerous items as penis plugs. Objects included speaker wire, an AAA battery, open self-clasping sticks, a plastic container, straws, a marble, and a cotton-tipped swab. One person even made a homemade electro sex penis plug using battery wires to transmit low voltage.

Things You Should Not Use as a Penis Plug

When it comes to urethral play, safety is paramount. Here’s a list of things you should never use as a penis plug.

Glass

Inserting glass sex toys into the urethra is dangerous. Do not use thermometers or anything made from glass. The glass may shatter and cause irreparable damage.

Beads

Inserting beaded sex toys into the urethra is hazardous. The beads may come loose and require surgical removal. Always avoid using beads for this purpose.

Mixed Materials

Plastic or silicone joined to a surgical steel penis plug is dangerous. These materials can become loose and may require surgical removal. Stick to single-material, body-safe plugs.

Household Objects

Never use household objects as penis plugs. These items can be unhygienic and harmful. You don’t know what they’re made of or where they’ve been. Some objects that people have used include nails, screws, beans, pens, knitting needles, baby carrots, and sticks.

One unfortunate incident involved a 70-year-old man from Canberra. News.com.au reported that he went to the emergency department with a 10cm fork lodged in his penis. The International Journal of Surgery Case Reports wrote, “The steel cutlery item was inserted into his urethra for his sexual gratification.”

Unorthodox Spa Treatments

Homemade penis plugs and unorthodox spa treatments have caused many medical emergencies. An example is the case reported by Metro.co.uk, where an eel swam up a man’s urethra during a beauty spa treatment in China. The man from Honghu, Hubei province, said, “I climbed into the bath and felt the eels nibbling my body. Then I felt severe pain and realized a small eel had gone into the end of my penis.”

Types of Penis Plugs

When exploring urethral play, it’s important to understand the different types of penis plugs available. Each type offers unique experiences and benefits. Here’s a detailed look at various penis plugs.

Solid Penis Plugs

Solid penis plugs have no openings and are a single, complete piece. They do not allow you to urinate or ejaculate while wearing them. These plugs can be used for extended periods but must be removed when fluids need to be expelled. Attempting to ejaculate with a solid plug in place may cause it to be forcibly ejected, leading to potential injuries and complications.

Retrograde Ejaculation

Solid penis plugs block the urethra during ejaculation, causing semen to be unable to escape. When the plug is similar in width to the urethra, semen returns to the bladder instead of being expelled. This phenomenon is known as retrograde ejaculation. Retrograde ejaculation can be painful, and the semen is expelled when you urinate. If retrograde ejaculation sexually arouses you, consult a medical professional to understand its effects and safety.

Through-Hole Penis Plugs

Through-hole penis plugs, also known as cum thru penis plugs, can be worn for extended periods. These plugs have a hole through the middle, allowing men to urinate and ejaculate. They provide the flexibility to expel fluids without removing the plug.

Flexible Penis Plugs

Some cum thru penis plugs are made from bendable materials, offering a smoother, more comfortable experience. Flexible plugs are usually constructed with body-safe surgical steel at the top and bottom, with a flexible middle section. This design is gentle and durable, making it a good option for transitioning to different-sized plugs.

Sprinkler Penis Plugs and Attachments

Sprinkler penis plugs feature a sprinkler head attachment at the end of a cum thru penis plug. This attachment creates a sprinkler effect during urination, which can be sexually stimulating due to the added restriction on urine flow. Sprinkler penis plugs are a great addition to any sex toy collection, especially if you enjoy BDSM or couples play.

 

Customer Review

“When I masturbate with my wife, I use a Cum Thru Penis Plug. Fortunately, she enjoys giving me a handy with it placed in my penis. My sensitivity moaning turn her on the most. I make sure my plug has a glans ring which keeps everything firmly in place. My masturbation lasts forever. When I orgasm, I shoot loads through the tiny cum thru hole and the pressure shots it higher! Even when, I have finished, the semen slowly drips out of the hole. This turns us both on and gets us wanting more”

Types of Penis Plugs Continued

Exploring different types of penis plugs can enhance your urethral play experience. Each type offers unique sensations and benefits. Here’s an in-depth look at various penis plugs.

Sperm Stopper

The sperm stopper features a solid ball that goes into the urethra but is not deeply inserted. The ball attaches to a bent rod connected to a glans ring, which fits around the head of your penis. This design keeps the sperm stopper in place while the ball stimulates the frenulum or V-spot. Sperm stoppers are popular among beginners in urethral play and are typically shorter than most penis plugs.

Prince’s Wand

Also known as the policeman’s nightstick, the Prince’s Wand generally requires a Prince Albert piercing. Some variations, called “Pound Puppies,” are designed for multiple penis piercings and feature multiple beads. However, there are versions of the Prince’s Wand that don’t require a Prince Albert piercing. Some Prince’s Wands are solid, but for day-long wear, it’s advisable to use one with Cum Thru functionality. Cum Thru Prince’s Wands often have a removable ball at the end for urination or sex.

Ridged Penis Plugs

Ridged penis plugs have textured ridges that provide pleasing sensations during insertion or removal. They come in both solid and Cum Thru varieties. Advanced users often prefer ridged plugs for added stimulation, moving beyond smooth or sleek plugs for more intense sensations.

Tapered Penis Plugs

Tapered penis plugs, also known as trainer plugs, allow you to gradually and safely stretch your urethra. They can be slowly pushed into the urethra, and when resistance is felt, you should stop and wait for the urethra to relax before inserting further. Tapered plugs are ideal for beginners who want to experience urethral stretching and prepare for larger urethral sex toys.

Buddy Penis Plugs

Buddy penis plugs are double-ended plugs designed for two people to share. When using a buddy plug, it’s crucial to maintain hygiene and follow safety guidelines for penis plugs.

Long Penis Plugs

Long penis plugs are longer than most plugs but don’t quite fit into the category of urethral sounds. These progressive sex toys offer a taste of using urethral sounds and help expand the urethra for larger capacities. Long plugs come in various shapes, bends, widths, and functionalities. They provide sensations that empower the penis but are not typically long enough for deep urethral stimulation reaching the prostate.

Centipede Penis Plugs

Centipede penis plugs are made from a mix of surgical steel and flexible material, allowing them to conform to the shape of your urethra. These plugs are segmented, alternating between steel and flexible material, resembling a centipede. Centipede plugs are excellent for those who want to experiment with long urethral toys while maintaining comfort.

Glans Ring

Glans ring penis plugs come with an attachment designed to hold the plug in place for extended wear. This feature ensures the plug stays securely in position, providing consistent stimulation without shifting.

Electro Sex

Body-safe surgical steel penis plugs are excellent electrodes for electro sex. Connect one lead wire to the external part of your plug and the other to a reference point, like a cock ring or a sticky electrode on your leg. The electrostimulation sends pleasurable waves through your penis, often resulting in climax without physical touch. Some users also enjoy the added sensations of electro sex pinwheels or whiskers. Add this to your BDSM Play.

Vibrating Penis Plugs

Vibrating penis plugs feature a small yet powerful motor that sends exquisite vibrations through your shaft. Many men love the sensation of vibrations moving up and down the urethra, reaching their erogenous zones. These plugs typically have a larger end to house the battery compartment, though recent designs have adopted a narrower compartment for increased comfort.

Urethral Wand

Urethral wands are similar to penis plugs but much longer. They can be straight, curved, or s-shaped and often have circular bulbs on the end. Urethral wands are designed for deep insertion into the urethra, reaching up to the bladder. Some urethral wands also come with vibrating functionality. Originally designed for medical use, these wands offer intense stimulation.

Sound Kit

Medical sound kits, initially used to dilate the urethra, are now available as sex toys. These kits are great value for money and can be used by both men and women for deeper penetration sensations. Sound kits allow for a controlled and gradual exploration of urethral play.

Prince Albert Wand

The Prince Albert Wand collection offers several designs for those with or without piercings. For pierced penises, these wands feature decorations that can be screwed on and off, ranging from simple balls to elaborate designs like a middle finger. For unpierced penises, rings provide support and adornment, mimicking the look of a piercing. The removable cap covers a hollow body, allowing for versatility in play. These wands can make you feel like a true blue-blooded prince.

Exploring the various types of penis plugs can significantly enhance your urethral play experience. Whether you’re interested in the stability of glans rings, the thrill of electro sex, the sensations of vibrating plugs, the depth of urethral wands, the value of sound kits, or the unique appeal of Prince Albert wands, there’s something for every preference. Always prioritize safety and hygiene to ensure a pleasurable and exciting experience.
