The penis and balls together are much larger than the base of the penis where a good member ring is worn. That is important to note, the ring goes behind the balls not in front. If the ring doesn’t stretch or can’t be opened up and closed again, how can you possibly get it on? It’s actually quite easy. Do this while flaccid and while standing.
Hold the ring under your scrotum so that the lower hanging ball (left testicle on most men) sits inside the ring. Use your free hand to reach beneath and pull the scrotum and one testicle through the ring. Gently pinch and pull the skin of your scrotum down through the ring as much as possible.
From above the ring, place fingertips on testicle #2 and gently push it down through the ring so it joins its brother hanging beneath.
Fold penis over and tuck the tip through the ring far enough that the head pops through the other side. If needed, a small drop of lube on the glans can be of help. A dry lubricant like talcum powder or corn starch also work very well, we recommend this for the whole package actually.
You are almost there! Grab the tip of your penis and tug it through the ring. Then, with the ring held by one hand and your whole package in the other, position the ring where it is most comfortable.
Before you become erect, do a quick check to ensure ring is not too small (see our Fitting Guide ).
Removing the ring is, of course, completed in the reverse order.

Cock rings are rings that go around the penis and/or scrotum. They slow blood flow out of an erect penis and can help make erections harder and longer-lasting. Some may also have little vibrators to increase pleasure for you and your partner.
Cock rings are also known as penis rings, tension rings, and constriction rings. They may also be marketed as erectile dysfunction (ED) rings, but people without this condition may want to use them, too.
Soft and stretchy rings. These are the most common and generally the cheapest rings available. They are circles of a soft material, often silicone. They’re easy to use and remove. It may take some trial and error to find the right fit.
Adjustable cock rings. These use lasso adjusters, velcro, or other fasteners to allow the wearer to adjust the fit as needed.
Vibrating cock rings. These have a small vibrator attached. The sensation may feel good for men, but these are generally designed to stimulate a woman’s clitoris during sex.
Solid cock rings. These rings are only for very experienced users. Even then, you may want to avoid them. There is a danger of penis strangulation with metal cock rings that fit poorly, get stuck, or are left on too long.
Cock rings make sex more intense and last longer. Specific benefits include:
There are a few common misconceptions about cock rings:
They’re Only for Older Men with Erectile Dysfunction
Not at all. People with no medical issues use cock rings. They may want the erection to last longer, increase sensitivity, or add a new element such as vibration or texture for their partner.
No. Cock rings cannot help you avoid pregnancy in any way.
When you use them correctly, cock rings should not cause pain. The new sensation may take some getting used to, but if it hurts, remove the ring right away. It may be a symptom of something else or simply an indication that you need a different size or style of ring.
Pick a beginner-friendly ring, something soft, stretchy, and easy to remove. Use the least constrictive size that still stays on and helps maintain your erection .
Psychologist and sex expert Antonia Hall, in an interview with Cosmopol itan magazine, recommends putting the ring on while the penis is flaccid or only semi-erect. Use lubricant to make it easier to slide the ring on, and then continue stimulating the penis until it’s erect.
If you want to wear your ring over your testicles, Hall suggests sliding them in one at a time. Remember: the fit should be snug but not uncomfortable.
The best way to use a cock ring to help with ED will depend on your specific problem.
If you can get an erection but have trouble keeping it, you can try the cock ring by itself. If you struggle to become erect, you may want to use your ring with a penis pump.
After pulling blood into your penis with the pump, slip your ring around the base of your penis before you remove the pump. The erection should last long enough for sex. A little light bruising afterward is normal.
Because cock rings restrict blood flow, it’s important not to wear one for longer than 20 minutes. Start by wearing one for just 5 minutes at a time to give yourself time to get used to the feeling. If you feel discomfort, take it off immediately.
If you’re using the cock ring as a sex aid for erectile dysfunction, make sure that you’ve talked to a doctor about your symptoms. There are many health conditions that can cause ED or make it worse, including heart disease, diabetes, alcohol problems, and mental health issues. It’s important to get help for those conditions and not use a sex toy to mask the symptoms.
Also, consult a doctor before use if you are on blood-thinning medication or have a bleeding disorder.
Do not fall asleep while using the ring, and don’t use it while you’re impaired by drugs or alcohol. It could lead to potential injury.
Allow at least 60 minutes between uses.
Remember that sex toys can transmit STIs . You may also risk other kinds of infection if you don’t clean them properly.
For most toys, water and a mild dish soap or antibacterial hand soap should do the trick. If your device vibrates or otherwise uses power, you may not want to submerge it in water, but make sure you get it fully clean with soap and a damp cloth.
For further instructions, refer to the directions on your sex toy’s label. At the very least, it should list the material, which may require special care.

If you've never tried using a cock ring before, the idea of slipping something snuggly around your shaft probably seems pretty off-putting. But contrary to popular belief, the folks who use cock rings aren't doing it because they're into pain (not that there's anything wrong with a little BDSM, of course).
Using a cock ring can be beneficial for both you and your partner for lots of reasons. For starters, cock rings help make an erection harder and make you last longer. And even if those two things aren't an issue for you, wearing a cock ring can also result in a more intense, explosive orgasm.
Now that you're paying attention, it's also worth noting that the cock ring of today comes with lots of bells and whistles, which means a better time in bed for both you and whoever you're getting it on with. Depending on what you're comfortable with using and what you're looking to achieve, there are plenty of different models and materials to choose from.
Not sure where to start? Here's a comprehensive look at cock rings, ranging from what they do to how they work, how to use them, and the best ones to try tonight.
What exactly are you getting your penis into when using a cock ring?
"Cock rings are worn around the penis, usually at the base, and are used to restrict blood flow from an erect penis in order to help extend erections," explains clinical sexologist Sunny Rodgers . "They can also be worn around the testicles to further restrict blood flow. When worn to include testicles, one erection ring can be worn around the penis and testicles together, or two erection rings can be worn with one around the penis and the second one around the testicles."
Have you ever wrapped a piece of string around your finger? Wearing a cock ring is a similar experience, except this way more fun.
"Specifically designed to restrict blood from leaving an erect penis, penis rings can make erections last for a longer period of time, and in some cases create a stronger climax," says Rodgers.
If you haven't already guessed, cock rings come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes.
"There are several types of penis rings ranging from stretchy and adjustable to textured and vibrating," says Jess O’Reilly , host of the Sex With Dr. Jess podcast. "Some rings sit at the base of the penis and others wrap all the way around the penis as well as the back of the testicles."

As far as shapes and models go, there are a few common ones that each work a bit differently.
"O-shaped rings fit around the base of the penis and can be used to help hold a condom in place," says O'Reilly. "Some of them include a vibrating bullet that can be positioned against his testicles or positioned on the upper side of the penis to rub against a partner of any gender during intercourse. Adjustable or snap-on rings can be worn either around the penis or all the way around the base of the shaft and balls. Often made of leather or synthetic materials, these rings can be adjusted with snaps or a sliding bead."
First thing's first: how do you decipher which cock ring is the right fit for your member?
"To find a size that fits, we say takes a bit of eye-balling, maybe a piece of string and a tape measure (use the string to wrap around the base of the penis and scrotum – and then measure the length), and then some trial and error," says Steve Callow, CEO of PerfectFit . "You'll know you've found the right fit when the ring fits snuggly on your erection — but isn't painful or uncomfortable."
You'll want to put your cock ring on when you're flaccid or semi-erect. Adding a bit of lube to this process can make it easier to get the ring situated. "The best way for a beginner is to stretch the ring as much as they can and pull their penis first then one testicle at a time," explains Callow. "Once on it shouldn’t be binding or strangling the base. It should be just loose enough so it can be easily turned while in place because as an erection grows it will tighten. Once hard, a proper fitting penis ring will give you a powerful erection."
If you're new to wearing a cock ring, O'Reilly suggests keeping time limited.
"Though cock rings can offer a slight increase to the size and firmness of an erection, you don’t want to overdo it," she says. "If it’s your first time wearing a ring, try it out for five minutes on an erect penis to make sure it fits and be sure to remove it if you ever observe any pronounced swelling."
Even after you've had experience using the cock ring, Rodgers cautions against using one for a long period of time.
"I do not recommend using an erection ring for longer than 30 minutes," she says. "One important tip to keep in mind is that just as an erection ring can restrict blood from leaving an erect penis, it can also inhibit blood from flowing into a penis. So, it’s best to place it on an almost fully-hard penis to allow it to perform properly."
What type of ring should you start with? You'll need to determine what you want your cock ring to do for you in order to figure it out. For example, is the ring being purchased for your partner's pleasure or your own?
"If it’s mainly for the wearer, you can focus on solo rings without attachments," says intimacy expert Miyoko Rifkin . "If your goal is to stimulate your partner, you’ll look at types of rings with added attachments, and/or vibration. Depending on the preferences of your lover, you’ll choose a clitoral stimulator that is flat or protruding. If your female partner wants deep penetration, you should grab a toy with less intruding attachments so you can keep your bodies close. If you and your partner want to achieve anal stimulation or create dual penetration, you’ll want a toy with an anal probe, or anal beads."
If you're a beginner, consider choosing a ring made out of more malleable materials.
"For absolute newbies, I recommend disposable vibrating rings as they give you the experience you desire without breaking the bank," notes Rifkin. "Once you know you like this type of stimulation and enhancement, you can invest a little more money to try different attachments and features."
Best for: Beginners first starting out
"Screaming O makes a wide range of really affordable rings that are perfect whether it’s your first or 31st time wearing one," says sex and relationship expert Dr. Emily Morse . "There are so many fun shapes and colors, you’ll never get bored."
Best for: Getting your balls involved
If your looking for a ring that covers all your manhood, the snug tugger is an excellent option.
"This cock ring does double duty for penis and testicles, providing a snug fit to enhance stamina and showcase erections," says sexologist Katy Zvolerin .
For triple the stimulation, get your backdoor involved.
"With more men getting into prostate play, this cock ring has the added bonus of an anal stimulator," says Zvolerin. "Three separate (and removable) bullet vibes hit all the hot spots as well – clitoral, anal, and below the shaft for dual pleasures."
Best for: Couples who want to explore
"Penis rings aren’t only for people with penises," says Morse. "Both partners can enjoy the deep, rumbly vibrations of the Pivot because the raised mound can stimulate the clitoris, plus it’s nice and stretchy for a comfy fit. Experiment with their We-Connect app to create your own custom vibrations."
Best for: Getting extra stimulation
"This is the first penis ring that has dual motors for stimulation," Morse explains. "One on top for the shaft that also stimulates the clitoris, and one on the bottom for stimulation to the perineum for indirect prostate stimulation. So with this one, everyone wins."
Not sure what size ring to use? A kit like this one from PlayZone lets you experiment with until you find right one.
"This kit uses premium silicone Xact-Fit rings and comes with 9 sizes to have fun with," says Callow.
Best for: Getting a variety of stimulations
For a versatile vibrating ring, opt for one with different settings like this one from Adam & Eve.
"It's waterproof, with 10 separate vibration settings – plus the bullet vibe is covered in dozens of stimulating ticklers to enhance the experience even more," says Zvolerin.

'Cock ring' may sound like the name of the junk jewelry or boner bling you'd put through a Prince Albert (piercing). But a cock ring is actually a category of pleasure products — and a very underappreciated one at that!

Never heard of 'em or unsure how to use them? Not to worry. Below, three sex educators explain exactly why cock rings can be a fun addition to any sexual play involving a penis or dildo.

Let's start with a definition, k? Also known as pleasure rings and c-rings, cock rings are round (or oval) rings that are designed to either snuggly hug the base of a penis (or dildo), explains Taylor Sparks, erotic educator and founder of Organic Loven , the largest BIPOC-owned online intimacy shop. Some cock rings secure around both the penis and the testicles, she says.

There are cock rings available in a number of materials including leather, stainless steel, ABS plastic, glass, and ceramic, says queer sex educator and lesbian Marla Renee Stewart, MA, sexpert for Lovers adult wellness brand recommends. But the bulk of them are made out of stretchy silicone. And stretchy silicone is exactly the material you want if you're new devices (more on why below).

When worn on a biological penis, cock rings are designed to place slight (slight!) pressure on the vein at the base of the penis in order to (slightly!) restrict blood flow, explains sex educator Lisa Finn with sex-toy emporium Babeland . The point? More blood flow = stronger erection + more sensation.

Does this mean cock rings can help a penis-haver with erectile dysfunction stay hard longer? Yes, it does! However, says Finn, "if someone has issues with erectile function, they should check in with their doctor before jumping right into cock rings." Fair.

Vibrating cock rings have the added benefit of providing buzzy stimulation to both the wearer and the receiver. "The vibrating piece of the ring can be placed against the balls to stimulate the balls and perineum, or on top of the shaft to stimulate the receiver's anus or vulva," she says. For vagina-havers who need clitoral stimulation to climax ( and most do ), vibrating cock rings could be the difference between touching the O-zone and not.

On store-bought cocks (AKA dildos), "cock rings can be used to keep a dildo in a harness during strap-on sex," says Stewart. And vibrating options have the ability to transform non-vibrating dildos into vibrating dildos, sending buzz up and down the shaft that stimulates both the wearer and receiver, she says. Woo!

There's a misconception that cock rings are accouterments for P-in-V intercourse, only . But this is most definitely not true. Cock rings can be used during any kind of solo, partnered, or multi-partnered sex act that involves a penis or dildo, says Finn. Including: Anal penetration, masturbation, oral sex, hand sex, outercourse, and more.

Sparks adds that there are some cock rings designed for day-long wear, for kink and/or aesthetic purposes. A Leather Daddy, for example, might choose to wear a leather cock ring to a leather competition, while a Professional Dom might choose to wear a stainless steel ring to a sex party.

Yep! So long as they are used correctly. Here's exactly how to use a cock ring correctly.
