Cock Rings

If you like it, you should put a ring on it. The same is true for your cock too! Cock rings are a great way to add extra pleasure to your masturbation sessions or even sex! Even if you're not the one wearing it, you’ll be glad it’s there.

These great toys aren’t just for sexual pleasure though. For many men who suffer with erectile dysfunction, cock rings are a fantastic way to help them perform in the bedroom and save plenty of embarrassment.

What is a Cock Ring?

You might not be surprised to learn, a cock ring is a ring that goes around your cock! The most common version goes right the way down and sits behind your testicles, although there are some versions that sit behind the head of the penis. These are called glans rings.

Types of Cock Ring

While they seem simple, there are a few different kinds of cock ring that can all serve different functions.

Stretchy cock rings are the most common type. These are usually made of silicone or rubber, and are very flexible. Stretchy rings are great for beginners as they are easy to put on, and don’t feel as restrictive as some firmer versions.

Firm or solid cock rings are the other end of the scale. These are made of harder materials like metal or plastic, and they don’t have any give whatsoever. This means they’re usually a bit harder to put on and take off, but give a much stronger feeling of restriction.

Adjustable cock rings give the best of both worlds, giving you the ability to adjust the ring to your desired fit. Sometimes these are made of cord which can be tightened and loosened, or they could be more elaborate like our inflatable model.

Vibrating cock rings are a slightly different category and can come in a variety of the styles listed above. The key feature here is that each of these cock rings have a vibrating feature. Often this is a small vibrator placed on one part of the ring (commonly where it will come into contact with a woman’s g-spot), but sometimes the entire ring will vibrate.

Cock and ball rings are another style, but this time rather than a single ring, there’s multiple. This lets you put one or both testicles in their own ring, then your cock in a separate one. Combined cock and ball rings can give you more support, and some men find them much more comfortable.

There is also a solid selection of cock rings that come with additional features, such as electrostimulation, added weight, nipple clamps, or even leashes!

Putting on Your Cock Ring

Wearing a cock ring is relatively simple, so you could probably figure it out on your own. Just in case though, here’s a simple guide:

1. Give your pubes a trim! - Nothing’s worse than getting your ring tangled up in an unruly forest of hair, so make sure you have a little trim to make your life easier.
2. Lube the ring, and your penis. - Getting it on will be much easier with some lubrication, like our specially formulated Lovelube.
3. Gently slide the ring down your erect penis, and into position at the base of your shaft.

If you have a cock and ball ring, then it’s often easier to place your penis into the main ring first, then gently push your testicles into their ring. Inversely, if you wish to place your standard cock ring around both your cock and testicles for a tighter fit, then you’ll usually want to put your balls in first. Then gently fold your penis downward and push it through the gap (this is usually easier with a flaccid penis).

Health Benefits of Cock Rings

While pretty much all sex toys have an element of benefit to your health (orgasms and great sex are good for you after all), cock rings are unusual because they can actually help deal with some specific problems: erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation.

For many men around the world, maintaining an erection can range from difficult to downright impossible. In this situation, cock rings are a godsend. The restriction around the base of the penis helps to keep the blood in place, which allows your erections to be stronger, longer, and much more satisfying.

If your problem isn’t getting it up, but blowing your load too fast, then cock rings can still help. While they might not be able to make you last longer (as the extra blood flow might even make your penis more sensitive), some men find them useful for staying hard after they orgasm. This lets you continue to pleasure your partner even if you get a little over excited yourself.

Are Cock Rings Safe?

As always, cock rings are perfectly safe as long as you use them properly. Here are a few simple tips to help you make sure that you don’t hurt yourself:

• Make sure your cock ring isn’t too tight. If you notice any discoloration or feel any pain, remove it immediately.
• Check you can remove your cock ring before you leave it on for an extended period. As you get harder it may become more difficult to remove.
• If you have any health conditions that may be relevant (such as a circulation problem), discuss cock ring use with your doctor to make sure it’s safe.
• Don’t wear your cock ring for too long – usually 20-30 minutes is plenty.
• Take sufficient breaks between sessions.
