I recently purchased my first cock ring and decided on one that was marketed as adjustable with a "quick release" design (kind of looks like a lasso rope). To be honest the thought of using a traditional ringed one I find a bit scary given that it is meant to constrict the blood flow to the penis and thus it seems like it might not be easy to get off while hard. I have read a few stories that resulted in an ER visit and that has me thinking twice about trying them.

So for those who have used regular cock rings, the first question is of how safe are they? Can you easily remove them with an erection if you had to and how do you know if they are too tight? Would a "one-size-fits-all" be safe or would it be better to buy an individual sized one and how do you know what the right fit is given that if I understand correctly, it is meant to be put on while still soft?

The second question is, should it be worn during orgasm or taken off? I have read accounts that claim one will get a more intense climax if it is on yet I've also seen some say it will be greater (especially the shooting force) if you remove it right at the moment you feel the ejaculatory inevitability. With my adjustable one I have found it is difficult to come with it on. In fact, the one time I did have an orgasm the release of semen was just a small delayed dribble leading me to believe it was a retrograde ejaculation. Could it be it was too tight? Even though it didn't feel like it (in fact it might not have been tight enough since it didn't keep a firm enough erection the whole time) but to me it makes sense that if the ring is restricting blood in the vessels it could also restrict the semen in the urethra.

Any advice on best way to use a traditional cock ring and get over my (maybe unreasonable) fear of using one would be appreciated. Also what would be the safest material? Rubber I think would be, while I think metal might be downright foolish unless one really knows what they are doing.

I've never used one but at one of our parties a guy had one and was going to try it. It was the traditional "one size fits all" that you have to place your balls through and then your cock. He was semi hard and he and his wife weren't having a lot of luck. They could get one part in but not the other. They finally got everything through with the help of lube. His first session of the night he said he had an orgasm and it was a little more intense but not the same volume he would usually shoot. It took three times for it to get soft enough to pull it off. He said it was kind of uncomfortable and has never tried it again. I would suggest a quick release if you choose to try it. YMMV...good luck and let us know.

Start with silicone or those with snaps to build your confidence and grow accustomed to wearing them.
I have them in many materials and have been wearing them for decades. There is a learning curve.
Good luck.

Yep, pretty much. I'm not aware of adverse health problems.

Use rubber or silicone, something stretchy and it really doesn't have to be too tight - I don't like cock rings like that.

I always wear my cheap silicone ones that just go around the shaft not the balls through orgasm and sex(which are definitely more intense with it) and usually stretch it out to sometimes remove it right after but ive also left it on awhile and I've never had an issue either way or felt like it was too tight but yes you can remove them quickly if they feel uncomfortable

They're awesome in a long marathon session where you expect to shot several loads. I have four different styles. The one I use most is a double loop with one going tightly around the base of my cock, the other around both my cock and balls. I also have a triple loop Three Ring Circus which is a bit of a challenge to get on but it creates really different, intense sensations when I fuck my buddy or gf, and when I shoot, the feeling is unbelievable

Always wanted to try a cock ring but was hesitant for safety reason stated above.

There's a user here who has a website (king-rings.com) and those rings look awesome but I'd rather start with a stretcy material.

Can anyone recommend one?

I’ve used cockrings for years. Started with silicone and now wear steel ones. Cumming with it on feels really good. If you use lube it’s easy to get them off before you orgasm. Wearing one during sex feels great. There’s no risk cumming while wearing one.

I use a metal one. I wear it for a while and watch porn or stroke myself, then I take it off when I want to cum. The problem I have it not fear of getting it off, it’s that it backs up my cum and then it dribbles out for a while afterwards. If it’s been a few days and I jerk off with the cocking on, once I take it off I drip cum. If I go to bed afterwards, even if I’ve tried to milk the rest out it keeps dripping. It’s just messy.

I have a lot of cock rings, steel rings and hinged, and lots of leather varying from 1/2" wide to 2". The wider the ring the less shaft you are exposing. If you can afford to give up 2" by wearing a 2" wide ring then go for it. I have come back to my very first adjustable leather ring that is only 1/2" wide. It doesn't interfere with hand movements (no banging into the metal rings), and at the correct tightness gives me the absolutely hardest erections I have ever had, along with a PONR that seems to last forever and the ultimate climax that comes from the delay. 006hr.JPG

The Oxballs Atomic Jock is a great starter one (UK link https://www.lovehoney.co.uk/product.cfm?p=35315)

But a steel one is the way forward (for me). I measured around my dick (hard) and went off searching for a steel ring. I planned on buying one at the exact measurement, then reducing by 5mm for the next, etc - until I found one that was the right size and gave me the strongest boner. I started out at 80mm, but it was way too big, 70mm was ok, but 65mm is the one for me.

I didn’t buy anything from sex shops as their prices are ridiculous. You can pick up a stainless steel ring from boat or engineering suppliers for £5 max.

Let’s see some pics of your journey! ;)

I love elastic rings. No problem shooting big loads while wearing one (elastic ring at base of my cock, see vid and turn up the volume).

May I suggest perusing this site: www.gearessentials.com They make the best metal cockrings and their blog is updated regularly. It also offers suggestions on how to size for the right fit. And best of all, the owners are good guys who support the community.

I recently bought 3 stretchy, silicone rings. Two will fit nicely around my cock and balls and the third fits only around my shaft. Lots of fun but I only leave them on for 20-30 minutes while playing.

I love the feel of the tightness these give my balls and the shaft ring does keep me swollen a little better than simply au naturel.

I’m with you rbi. Have gone back to a narrower metal ring that fits nice and tight. Actually holds up my low hangers a bit and really applies some pressure for when I cum. The pressure really makes the jizz have so much more force. Really into wearing a cock ring and ball stretcher for when I masturbate alone or have have sex with somebody. BTW.... your cock is looking pretty fine! How’s the stretching going? Let’s talk... 16099C7A-AAE0-4F7F-A997-635D47D27122.jpeg
