For those who don’t know, the prostate is a walnut-sized gland found in the reproductive system of penis-owners, below the bladder and surrounding the urethra. In other words, the way in which to find the prostate is through the anus.
The main function of the prostate is to produce seminal fluid, which nourishes sperm and makes up semen. It also has muscles that help expel semen during ejaculation.
But that’s not all the prostate is good for. You see, when stimulated, the prostate can induce firework-inducing orgasms. Which is why there are several different prostate toys available.
These sex toys are designed in such a way that they target the prostate (the P-spot) with perfection, but each come with their own functions and styles. For example, some may vibrate, have different nodules, may be bigger or smaller, so on and so forth.
For the sake of this article, the best beginner prostate toys for beginners, we’re going to help you to find a beginner-friendly prostate massager because starting off with the right one is super important for comfort, ease of use, and safety.
From what to look for, prostate massager suggestions, and how to use them safely, to the importance of lube, and cleaning and maintenance, here’s your go-to guide on prostate massagers for beginners.
But first… a little enticement.
Why Prostate Massage is Beneficial
Not only is receiving a prostate massage good for your health, but it’s also super pleasurable. Here are some of the benefits of a prostate massage…
Health Benefits
Prostatitis: A prostate massage could help ease pressure and swelling caused by prostatitis (swelling and inflammation of the prostate). By stimulating the prostate several times a week, it could ease pain and release some of the fluid that has built up in the area.
Diagnosing medical conditions: Going to a medical professional for a prostate exam could be a way in which to detect underlying medical conditions.
Erectile problems: While there isn’t scientific proof, some have experienced increased sexual pleasure via a prostate massager and easier ejaculation.
Better urine flow: If you have a swollen prostate, your urine flow may be affected. By massaging the prostate, you could experience an ease of pressure on the urethra which may lead to a better urine flow.
Sexual Enhancement and Enjoyment
Pleasure & orgasm enhancement: a prostate orgasm is said to be more intense than a penile climax, and many have described it as a “full body” orgasm.
Beginner-friendly stimulation: when you find the right prostate sex toy, it can make the experience enjoyable and stress-free.
What To Look for in a Beginner Prostate Massager
As per the last point: finding the right prostate sex toy, here are some things to look for when you’re ready to get started with prostate play.
Size & Shape
Leave the big ones for the more experienced players. As a beginner, you should opt for something that is slim and has a gentle curve design. Also, choose a beginner prostate toy that has a small girth for easy insertion.
Material & Safety
Always go for body-safe silicone or ABS plastic. This will not only aid in comfort, but you’ll always be sure you’re choosing the best kind of material that’s safe for your body. You should avoid porous materials such as jelly-feel rubber, latex, CyberSkin, or TPR/TPE as they can harbour bacteria.
Vibration vs. Manual
As a beginner, you may want to stick to the manual stimulation prostate massagers. Yes, vibrations may sound super sexy and add in a layer of extra pleasure, but they do require a learning curve. If you choose a non-vibrating prostate massager at first, you will have full control over your sex toy and can gradually explore the sensations slowly and at your own pace.
Handle or Base?
When using a prostate massager with a base, always make sure it’s flared. This is to make sure that you can insert and remove it safely and easily, and that there is zero chance that it’ll go further inside of you than needed. If you’re going for a prostate massager with a handle, you’ll want it to be easy-to-hold so that you have full control over it.
The Best Prostate Massagers for Beginners
So you want to find the best beginner prostate toys. Here are four prostate massagers that we recommend for newbies. Each are unique in their own way, some are smaller, some are larger, but using them with or without their settings is your choice as you navigate your way through prostate play.
1. Billy 2 Prostate Massager
Billy is an intuitive sex toy with a four-button interface… which will come in handy if and when you decide to experiment with its pleasure settings. As a beginner however, you may simply want to use this impeccable-shaped prostate massager without any vibrations, slowly and carefully, to get an ideal of what a prostate massage feels like. It has a tapered body for easy and comfortable insertion, it’s 100 percent waterproof, is made of premium silicone, and comes with an ISO 3533 Safety Assurance (made at the highest possible safety standard).
2. LOKI Prostate Massager
A luxurious prostate massager that’s perfectly shaped and angled to reach your P-spot, with or without the vibrations. It’s also coated in premium body-safe silicone, ensuring ultimate safety. LOKI is a great toy to start with, slowly, and once you’ve become more comfortable with prostate massage, you could experiment with one of the six vibrational settings. It’s 100 percent waterproof and has ISO 3533 Safety Assurance (made at the highest possible safety standard).
3. LOKI WAVE WaveMotion Prostate Massager
LOKI WAVE may seem a bit intimidating because it has two arms, and it uses its vibrational power to “wave” inside of you creating the ‘come hither’ motion. But there is a great way in which to use it for beginners. Firstly, one need not use the vibrational settings at first but if you do fancy it, it could be used externally, on the perineum. It has been said that the P-spot can also be stimulated through the perineum, so why not take advantage of the vibrations for some external play? Secondly, you could insert this toy for P-spot stimulation without using its 10 vibrational settings. In this way, you’ll still have the second arm resting on your perineum. This prostate sex toy is 100 percent waterproof, made of body-safe silicone, and has an ISO 3533 Safety Assurance (made at the highest possible safety standard).
4. HUGO Remote Controlled Prostate Massager
Another toy that may seem intimidating, HUGO is medium-sized and can be a lot of fun for those who want to work their way up to some even more fulfilling prostate play. At first, it can be used gently without vibrations, working your way up to enjoying the fullness that it brings. As you become more comfortable and are ready to start experimenting with its six settings, you could take advantage of its remote control. That means extra sassy solo play or even some partnered play. This prostate sex toy also has two arms, offering internal and external stimulation (prostate and perineum), it’s 100 percent waterproof, made of extra-soft premium silicone, and has an ISO 3533 Safety Assurance (made at the highest possible safety standard).
How To Use a Prostate Massager Safely
Before we guide you through how to use a prostate massager safely, we’d like to mention something called anal training. If you’re brand new to any anal stimulation, this may be the perfect thing for you to try before you attempt using any kind of prostate massager.
Anal training is when you use butt plugs of various sizes, starting with the smallest one, in an attempt to gain comfort and pleasure.
You see, using any anal toys comes with a learning curve so it’s important to start small and work your way up. That’s why we recommend anal training before you start your journey with larger prostate massagers.
When you’re ready to try something bigger than the largest butt plug, then you can follow these steps for ultimate safety with your prostate massager.
- Make sure you have set enough time aside with no interruptions, and that you’re feeling relaxed and in the mood. Prostate massage is a fun experience but one that should be slow.
- Have plenty of water-based lubricant on-hand. You’ll want to apply a generous amount onto your beginner prostate toy and around the anus. Don’t be shy to add more as you play.
- Get into a comfortable position for insertion. You may want to be on your back, on your side, or even on your stomach. Whichever seems the most comfortable for you will ensure the best experience.
- Very slowly insert your prostate massager. Take as long as you need. You may not be able to insert it all at first, and that’s fine. Be patient with yourself and always listen to your body. If you feel any pain or discomfort, stop immediately. If you’re feeling aroused, continue to use gentle movements, using the vibrations only if it’s comfortable for you.
- When you’re finished using your prostate massager, you simply must clean it properly. More on that below.
Best Lubricants To Use with Prostate Massagers
Equally as important in the process of using a prostate massager… lubricant! You see, the anus doesn’t produce any lubrication naturally, and you’ll definitely want a smooth glide to aid in more comfort and pleasure.
So, as we’ve mentioned, one of the best sex toy materials to use is body-safe silicone. For this kind of material, you’ll want to pair it with a water-based lube as it’s safe and they make an excellent pair.
You’ll want to avoid a silicone-based lube with silicone toys however, as this lubricant can degrade the sex toy material over time.
Cleaning & Maintenance Tips
If you’re using a silicone prostate massager, which we recommend, you could use warm water and a mild antibacterial soap to clean your toy, then allow it to air dry. Store it in a cool, dry space, and opt for a bag to avoid dust buildup.
As per charging, if you have a rechargeable prostate massager, it’s important to allow it to fully charge before first use. After that, try to avoid over-charging it as it could shorten the battery life.
Today’s main takeaway is that using a prostate massager can be exceedingly pleasurable if used slowly and at your own pace. And this is why it’s so important to find the right prostate massager for you.
What’s also important is for you to focus on comfort and enjoyment, and to always listen to your body. If you feel any pain or discomfort, stop. There’s no rush to your play time, so take your time.
One thing is for sure however: you’ll definitely receive all of the benefits of prostate play as you continue to experiment. So why not take this time to explore different beginner-friendly prostate massagers and take the next step in your pleasure?
