What is a cock ring?
Cock rings are one of the most searched products in sex shops.
They are also usually one of the first sex toys used by couples because of their harmless appearance.
If you want to bring something new to the relationship in order to spice things up, then you can bet on this accessory.
It is basically a ring to be placed at the base of the penis.
What are they for?
The cock ring is used to increase stimulation. It is not designed to solve ejaculation or erection problems.
It is even used by some men in an attempt to maintain erection and delay ejaculation, but in most cases it does not solve the problem as it was not developed for this use.
There are reports that it also helps couples to have more intense orgasms.

How women use them
Another way of using cock rings is when the woman uses it (and not the man) by putting the cock ring around her fingers to masturbate.
In this case, the woman would use a vibrating ring.
Women also like it when the man or another woman puts the ring on their fingers and caresses them.
That is why these rings are so cherished, since they can be used in many ways.
What to watch out for
There are several materials and sizes of cock rings being sold, so it is important to look for an experienced salesperson to indicate what is best for each man.
It is important to use this accessory correctly. Bad use can lead to problems in the vascularization of the penis.
Key recommendations
- If the man feels pain after putting the ring on, he should remove it immediately, as injuries may occur in the penis.
- The man should also immediately remove the ring if the penis turns purple.
- The use of lubricant is mandatory in order to help the ring to slide all the way down to the base of the penis.
- Insert the ring only when the penis is erect, that is, ready for penetration.
- The usage time is of 30 minutes maximum. If possible, you should not exceed an average use of 20 minutes.
Do not try to innovate too much
The ring is to be used at the base of the penis and not on the head.
It can involve the testicles too, but never use the cock ring in the middle part of the penis or on the glans.
- Use it only once a day.
- Getting rid of the hair at the base of the penis is a good way to avoid the hair from curling around the ring and causing pain when it is removed.
Types of cock rings
Vibrating cock rings
This is the sweetheart of all cock rings, as it provides pleasure for both partners.
It has a vibrating capsule that, depending on the position, can stimulate the clitoris or the anus.
In missionary position the vibration stimulates the woman’s clitoris. In all-fours position, it stimulates the anal region.

In addition to the ring itself, this cock ring has an attached accessory that stimulates the perineum and anus region.
It may have the appearance of a mini penis for example.
Cock ring with penis
Also called a companion, it is used for double penetration.
Double ring
We call it “double ring” when two rings are used together. One is at the base of the penis and the other one surrounds the testicles.
How to clean the ring
The cock ring must be cleaned before and after use.
Use neutral or intimate hygiene soap only, or cleaning products for sex toys.
