How Cock Rings Can Help Your Erectile Dysfunction
If you’ve been diagnosed with erectile dysfunction (ED) or think you might have ED, it’s easy to believe that you can never have penetrative sex again. That’s not necessarily true. You may be able to get some of your sex life back with the purchase of a basic cock ring. For less than $5, you may be able to have the type of penetrative sex you’ve been missing and craving.
Curious about cock rings and erectile dysfunction? Here’s what you need to know.
What is Erectile Dysfunction?
Some people think they have erectile dysfunction when what they really have is low libido or situational ED. If you’re waking up with a hard-on or maintaining an erection at least 75 percent of the time, it might not be ED. Always talk to your doctor for a diagnosis.
Erectile dysfunction means that you’re unable to get or maintain an erection making you unable to orgasm or experience penetrative sex. For some people, regular sexual activity and orgasms can actually improve ED, but you may need help with sex toys like cock rings to get hard and get off.
What a Cock Ring Can Do
A cock ring (sometimes called a penis ring or an ED ring) sits at the base of your penis or testicles. Some are designed to do both. The right one for you is about comfort and preference. Once on, the ring slows the flow of blood out of your penis.
When you’re aroused, your brain sends blood to your penis to get you hard so you can have sex. But if you have the kind of erectile dysfunction that makes it difficult to maintain an erection, the blood will flow back out too soon. This is where a cock ring comes in handy. It squeezes the base of your penis to maintain your erection. In some men, it can also intensify your orgasm — which is why many people use it even if they don’t have ED.
Cock rings and other penis enhancement aids (like penis pumps) are a great alternative for people who don’t want to take ED medications. If you’ve tried medication and it hasn’t helped or you don’t like the side effects, you can look for a sex toy designed to help your specific situation. Cock rings can be used in conjunction with aids like penis pumps, too. The penis pump pulls the blood into your shaft, and the cock ring keeps it there.
What You Need to Know About Using a Cock Ring
A cock ring is fairly simple to use, inexpensive to buy, and effective for many men, but that doesn’t mean it’s completely without risk. Here are a few things you need to know:
- Always use lubricant to reduce friction. You want a squeeze, but not a burning sensation. A rug burn around your shaft won’t be pleasant and will make it painful to put on a cock ring again later.
- Check the size before you buy a cock ring. Too big and it won’t squeeze your shaft enough. Too small and it could cause damage to your penis — and possibly be painful to use.
- Watch out for your pubic hair. It may pinch or pull if you’re not careful. Lube should reduce this problem, but you can always shave if you’d like.
- Don’t wear a cock ring for too long. Take it off after you orgasm or 20 to 30 minutes after you put it on. Don’t wear it overnight as it could cause nerve damage to your penis.
- Buy the right material. A silicone cock ring or some other stretchy material will have more flexibility than a stainless ring.
Before using a cock ring to help your erectile dysfunction, always talk to your doctor. They can let you know if your ED could be helped by aids like a cock ring and what to consider when you buy one.
