Maintaining Erection (Cock Rings)

hi there, i am curious if Cock Rings actually work, and do they really help guys to maintain a full on erection once it has been put on.

i am asking because lately i have put on some weight, and although i still get horny, i cant seem to maintain a full on "hard as a rock" erection during foreplay or penetration like i normally do (the blood just dont flow like it should)

i recently saw some real fancy looking Cock Rings in a website, even some stainless steel ones popped up that looked very interesting, so im asking your people if you can suggest or recommend me some that do work, and i could try out for myself.

some guys seem to go to great pains to get these things on their cocks at the right moment, and some of them actually looked like they were choking the base of his cock and his balls to the point where it looks quite uncomfortable and painful.

any suggestions will be appreciated, and yes, i am on a weight loss diet but my weight was bought on by some drugs i was taking for an illness i recently suffered with where i was hungry all the time and got cravings for food i dont normally eat much of.

cheers.

 

It's sounds like if you are insecure and your probably thinking about your gaining weight situation when your having sex without knowing. Accept what you did and what you are doing about it. When your having sex enjoy it relax!! About the rings I don't like them it tenses me up when Im having sex. I think it's going to hurt my man, so I can't enjoy it

 

no my issue is very common with guys who put on weight, maintaining an erection during weight gain can be a real issue, its not a necessarily a "head thing"

i am fully aware that i am carrying extra weight, and my doctor has already told me that blood flow/circulation can be one of the effects of gaining weight.

my mind is definately on the job, it works to a point, then i just lose it, and she does her best to get the little fella back up, sometimes it works, sometimes it dont.

my doctor doesnt want to give me pills or potions if she can avoid it, and i dont like drugs because of certain side affects some of them have, and viagra is one such drug.

anyway, i never used a cock ring before, thats why i was asking.

cheers

 

Hello Gap!
Myself and my partner had a similar situation, and the cock ring worked for us, it also really helps intensify the orgasm for the man! I wouldn't go for a metal one right away, work up to it. It shouldn't be painful but it may feel uncomfortable at first, its a different sensation to get used to.
Once you've got into your stride you can invest in more heavy duty rings, I would recommend something with a vibrator to tickle your lady friends fancy
Currently my OH has lost a lot of the weight and stopped smoking and the ED has subsided, so now we can choose when to use the ring.

Here is a guide for measuring: http://www.lovehoney.co.uk/sex-toys/male-sex-toys/buyers-guide/how-to-measure-for-a-cock-ring/

We started with this: http://www.lovehoney.co.uk/product.cfm?p=24516
Then moved to this amazing piece of kit: http://www.lovehoney.co.uk/product.cfm?p=25476 My OH loves it cause it stimulated the perineum.

Let me know how it all goes, happy bonking

 

put the cock ring on while your flaccid.. not hard

 

I've always been very dubious about the use of cock rings. They are, after all, no more than tourniquets, which are known to cause clots in the blood supply, which can lead to far more serious problems.

 

Sorry I wasn't much help good luck!

 

no, i appreciated your thoughts, i should have been a bit clearer in my first post that my issue is the same that many guys gaining weight seem to suffer from, where the blood just stops pumping properly to the required parts

i guess your comments may hold fast for some guys, who more than likely are suffering from anxiety caused by weight gain.

anyway, its all good, and keep up the good work, and get that post count up like i have been doing, seems the only way we newbies will gain serious credibility according to some members

now i was going to mention this point as well, like how long should a guy wear one of these things for before they may be deemed to cause a problem ???

shit, i thought you put them on after you gain the erection, so that goes to prove that i have never used one before, now i feel like a complete dick (pardon the pun)

ok so if i put it on while Flaccid, and i then manage to become fully erect, how does this device then help maintain the erection ??? (again pardon my ignorance i think i need to go research these things a bit more)

 

oh wow, thanks a lot for your kind comments, and appreciate the links very much, looks like i have a lot of research to do

and just a final note, me and the wife had a nice night together last night (kids are away on school holidays) and again i lost the plot with the erection issue, i can get it up there sometimes, but there is no real firmness to it, like she can still bend it a bit, when normally it will be as hard as an iron bar as she likes to call it, and when it is working properly, i can feel the blood pulsating thru the veins in my penis.

if the bad boy isnt fully erect and doesnt have that distinct firmness like an iron bar, there is no real feeling or sensation when penetration does take place, and when i have that lack of feeling, i lose the plot (motivation) and just apologize to her again, and we move on to the toy box.

im working on losing the "belly" but its pretty slow going.

 

How 'bout playing it the simplest way by losing the weight?

 

as i already mentioned, its not that easy, i have the weight gain due mostly because of some drugs that i am taking for an illness that i have just started to overcome, and although losing the weight might fix the problem eventually, my thread was created to see what i can do until such a time arrives.

im after a temporary fix for now, not for 3 to 6 months in the future

 

Hang in there GAP! I also had a brain wave of another thing you could try, Kegel exercises! I found a great guide for you here: http://www.pegym.com/penis-exercises/kegel-exercises-for-men . But I'd recommend following this routine http://uk.askmen.com/dating/love_tip_60/67_love_tip.html .
Best wishes! x

 

Thanks for asking these questions GAP, my husband might be able to profit from this information. He has trouble in this department. I hope you find the help you need and I also hope it for myself.

 

thx everyone for the replies, man this is a virtual minefield trying to sort out a cock ring to try out

we usually get our stuff from this website, but where to begin with these devices, i wanna try them all

thx for the links, i have bookmarked them and will take a look at them later today, its 11.20am here in aussie right now, got to get some work done.

thx for the smiley nice to see you again.

 

Hm. Never tried one. Are they safe?

 

Yes they're safe to use. The effect is different for everyone though. Some use it to come less quick, in my case I get more sensitive and come quicker!

Others use it to keep an erection, I noticed that my cock gets really really hard and veiny, which is great, but if you're having mental issues, like being scared to lose your erection it won't help at all.

 

I like the wide hard silicone bands best. comfortable to wear around your cock n balls and doesn't cut into u. And yeah keeps u a bit harder and also firmer after u cum.

Metal ones can be ok too, but if it is on a partner who is mouth-fucking you a metal one can smash your teeth :-(

I still don't get how you can have a metal ring that is small enough to press on your perineum, but still wide enough to get your balls out, with a hard cock!
Can you make a video? :-D

 

Cock rings can help those with a touch of ED . There are plenty of types to choose from . Our favourite is a rechargeable vibrating couples silicone cock ring. When used correctly it stimulates both parties and it can end up being pretty intense and very intimate .

We have experimented by using 2 of these at the same time. When used this way it tends to be over with very quickly as its difficult to resist the stimulation .The sensation though is fantastic .
