The Prostate Massager is a tool to help men explore prostate health and pleasure. For starters, not only is it a pleasurable experience when used correctly, it may also improve prostate health (i.e. relieve congestion, improve circulation). Here’s a detailed beginner’s guide to help you get started safely.
Understand the functions of prostate and massager
Location of the prostate
The prostate is located below the bladder and in front of the rectum. It is as big as a walnut and is part of the male reproductive system. It is responsible for secreting prostatic fluid. Through gentle external or internal massage, local blood circulation can be promoted, congestion or inflammation relieved, and it may bring a unique pleasure.
Benefits of Massager
– Relieve prostate congestion or discomfort caused by prolonged sitting and aging.
– Promote local blood circulation and help prevent prostatitis.
– Explore sensitive areas of the body and enhance sexual experience (the prostate is known as the “male G-spot”).
Applicable people
Healthy men can try it, but the following situations need to be avoided:
– Acute prostatitis, hemorrhoid attack, rectal injury.
– Those with severe cardiovascular disease or strong psychological resistance.
Choose a massager suitable for beginners
Materials and safety
– Medical silicone: soft and skin-friendly, easy to clean, avoid cheap plastic materials.
– No sharp edges: Choose a rounded head design to reduce the risk of scratches.
Size and shape
– Recommendation for novices: a slender type with a diameter of no more than 2.5 cm and a length of 8-10 cm, such as “L-shaped” or “arc-shaped”, which is easier to locate the prostate (about 5-7 cm inside the anus).
– Function selection: The non-vibrating model is more suitable for first-time experience, while the vibrating model can be tried later.
Preparation before use
Choose the right massager
– Material: Non-toxic, soft material such as medical silicone, with smooth surface and no burrs.
– Size: Novices are advised to choose the slender model (diameter ≤ 3 cm), which has a curved design for easier positioning.
– Function: The vibration function is not necessary, and the manual model is more suitable for first exploration.
Cleaning and Disinfection
– Wash with mild soap or wipe with 75% alcohol before and after use (avoid disinfectants that irritate the anus).
– Apply water-based lubricant before use (to prevent silicone-based lubricants from corroding the silicone material), and it is more hygienic to use with condoms.
Physical preparation
– Empty the intestines (you can go to the toilet or give an enema beforehand).
– Trim nails, wash hands and lubricate fingers.
– Relax: take deep breaths, take a warm shower, or apply heat to the perineum.
– Warm-up action: Use your fingers (wearing gloves) to gently expand the anus to gradually adapt to the foreign body sensation.
Environment and posture
– Choose a private and quiet environment, and lie on your side with your knees bent or squatting to relax your pelvic floor muscles.
Lubricant selection
Be sure to use water-based lubricants (compatible with silicone) to avoid oil-based lubricants that may damage the material or remain in the body.
Detailed explanation of usage steps
Lubrication and insertion
– Apply a generous amount of lubricant to the head of the massager and around the anus.
– Rotate and advance slowly, pause when encountering resistance, take a deep breath to relax the sphincter, and do not force insertion.
Locate the prostate
– After entering about 5-7 cm, point the tip of the massager toward the anterior abdomen (that is, toward the penis). You will feel slight pressure or the urge to urinate. This is a sign of the position of the prostate.
Stimulation techniques
– Static Compression: Stay still and use the massager to stimulate the glands by gently contracting the anal muscles (Kegel exercises).
– Dynamic thrusting: After you become proficient, you can try to thrust slowly, with an amplitude of no more than 2-3 cm.
– Vibration function: Start at the lowest setting to avoid over stimulation.
Time control
It is recommended to use it for 5-10 minutes for the first time, and it can be extended to 15-20 minutes after getting used to it, no more than 2-3 times a week.
Orgasm and Ejaculation
Prostate orgasm may be accompanied by body tremors, pleasure without ejaculation, or with the discharge of semen. Let nature take its course and don’t pursue it deliberately.
Precautions and Frequently Asked Questions
Safety warning
– Pain stops immediately: Discomfort may result from wrong angle or too much force.
– Avoid urethral insertion: For anal use only, do not attempt to enter the urethra.
– Bleeding treatment: If trace bleeding occurs, suspend use and observe; if bleeding continues, seek medical attention.
Cleaning and storage
– Wash immediately with neutral detergent after use, dry and store in a breathable cloth bag.
– Silicone material avoids exposure to the sun and can be wiped and disinfected regularly with 75% alcohol.
Frequently Asked Questions
– “Is it normal to not feel pleasure?”: Individual differences vary greatly, and some people may need multiple attempts to feel pleasure.
– “Will it cause incontinence or diarrhea?”: No, if used correctly, overstimulation may lead to temporary frequent urination.
– “Can it replace medical treatment?”: It is only a supplementary health care tool. Prostate diseases need to be treated according to the doctor’s advice.
Advanced suggestions
– Combined with pelvic floor muscle training: Strengthening muscle control can enhance pleasure.
– Try the temperature method: heat the massager with warm water before use to increase comfort.
– Two-person collaboration: Exploring with your partner requires full communication and trust.
