Featured imageI hope you’re ready for how this article might turn out. Those familiar with anal toys will probably know what a prostate massager is, even if you haven’t tried it before. For those less experienced in butt play, you must wonder what they are and how they differ from other anal toys. Hold tight because you’re about to find out all the juicy details!

Key Takeaways
  • Prostate massagers are explicitly designed to stimulate your P-spot. They are usually phallic-shaped with a curve at the top, allowing them to easily massage your prostate.
  • When you buy a prostate massager, pay attention to the type, material, vibrations, size, safety, texture, and extra features such as app control.

What is a Prostate Massager?

A prostate massager is a toy designed specifically for your anus. It’s usually a phallic-shaped toy with a curve at the top, allowing it to massage and stimulate your prostate, ultimately ending in prostate orgasms. However, the designs will differ slightly in shape. Some come in funky shapes, bulbous tips, or shorter stubbier versions with curved tips; whatever sparks your fancy, you’ll find it in the sea of designs available.

What Is The Prostate Gland?

The prostate (AKA male G-spot) is a component of the male reproductive system, which also consists of the testicles, the penis, and the seminal vesicles. You’ll find the prostate gland below the bladder and in front of the rectum. It’s around the urethra and approximately the size of a walnut. And it secretes a prostatic fluid that is an integral component of the sperm.

How Can I Find My Prostate?

The prostate, also known as the P-Spot, is the holy grail of pleasure. Finding your prostate takes the proper prep, basic anatomy knowledge, and a hunger for exploration.

  1. Once fully clean, ensure you are relaxed and find a comfortable position to easily and comfortably insert your finger inside your anus.
  2. Make sure to lube up nicely inside, and on the object you will insert.
  3. Next, get ready to go deep and feel for that walnut-sized pleasure spot.
  4. Instead of going straight up your anus, push towards the root of your penis and belly button.
  5. You’re feeling out for a 4-inch rounded lump; the fun can begin once you can feel your prostate.

How does Prostate Massagers Work?

A prostate vibrator is pretty straightforward; you might have tried massaging your prostate or asked someone else to use a finger (or three) to stimulate it. However, a prostate massager will do better than your fingers by directly targeting the area that will arouse you the most, which is your prostate gland. These toys will effortlessly hit the P-spot because of how they are shaped.

What do They Feel Like?

The short answer is toe-curlingly good; the long answer is slightly different for everyone. Inserting anything in your rectum can mean insane amounts of pleasure. This pleasure comes from the anus’ abundance of nerve endings, which explains your sensitivity when participating in anal play.

But unlike other anal toys, a prostate massager is designed to stimulate the prostate. And since the prostate is the height of all sensitivity, when massaged with a toy will give you a feeling you have never felt before. So not only will you experience intense fiery pleasure, but after your first prostate orgasm, you’ll be asking yourself what took so long to try one.

Who Are They For?

A prostate stimulator is for any sexual orientation and can be enjoyed alone or as a couple, but unlike other anal toys, it’s specifically for anyone with a prostate. In short, if you’ve got a prostate, you can’t go wrong snagging yourself one of these!

What To Think About When Buying A Product

Like other sex toys, prostate massagers can be made from various materials, some of which are better quality than others. The most crucial piece of advice I can provide is to ensure that the brands you pick are trustworthy so that you can be confident that the components will not hurt you or put you at risk. Most of the industry’s top producers make sex toys from various materials, including silicone, glass, stainless steel, ABS plastic, and crystal.

Butt Safe

Don’t worry; sex toys from a trusted seller will always have safety in mind. They come with a handle to properly manipulate positioning, or a flat base stopper like butt plugs, ensuring both vibrating and non-vibrating models stay secure, keeping your butthole safe and sound for all the pleasure to come.

Size

Size is often a factor when choosing a new sex toy, but bigger isn’t always better for a prostate massager. Your prostate is located around 2 inches deep in your rectum; lengthwise, you want something that perfectly hits the spot. However, the thickness of the toy is where you can get creative and go as large as you can handle.

Prostate massagers come in many sizes, but 3.5 inches of insertable length and 4.45 inches wide are considered ideal for prostate play. Although this size is suitable for anal play pros, it is also perfect for beginners.

Design/Shape

Prostate massagers exist in various designs; each meant to exert pressure on the prostate gland. They come in varying forms, sizes, and features, each designed to provide a distinct kind of stimulation, and your choice of anal play will determine which one is best for you.

Below are a few factors you may need to consider when choosing your first prostate toy.

Length

You should choose a lengthy toy if you enjoy deep anal penetration or want maximum leverage when massaging your prostate. Both of these scenarios call for more leverage. Longer prostate toys typically offer greater leverage than their shorter counterparts because of their length. For couples to play, a shorter toy should suffice, as your partner will have an easier time positioning the toy in the best spot.

Width

Shorter and chubbier toys are available for guys who desire the sensation of being filled up or have less sensitive prostates. Some of these thicker massagers have a maximum length of only three inches and are designed to seem more like butt plugs than dildos, and they provide less leverage but will still manage to hit your P-spot without too much trouble.

Texture

You may discover prostate massages with various textures, just like you can find penetrating sex toys. Most men may discover a toy that suits their desire, whether they want smooth surfaces or rubber spikes. If you’re starting, it’s probably best to stay with smoother toys or check out ridges options. However, more pronounced textures are available for those searching for something far more exciting. You feel intense stimulation from the gadget if it has a higher level of texture.

Vibration

Just like many female toys, prostate massagers can vibrate as well. Some of them come with a switch on the toy’s body or via remote apps, giving you or your partner direct control over the vibrations the toy emits.

People who don’t enjoy hard thrusting may love vibrating prostate stimulation, as you can find stimulation in a more gentle motion and switch up the vibrations as you go.

Rotating

Some models have a revolving feature built into them, and the massager has a shaft mounted on a swivel and can rotate using the grip on the toy. These are great options if you’re more interested in utilizing the toy for climax than foreplay.

Perineum Stimulators

The perineum is the space between your shaft and anus. Some excellent prostate massagers have perineum stimulator pads or specialized designs to add even more pleasure, especially during couples’ play.

Budget

There is a wide variety of prices for prostate massagers. So naturally, the higher the level of design sophistication, the higher the price. However, because such a wide variety of styles and brands are available, you won’t have any trouble finding the ideal anal stimulator for your needs while staying within your financial means.

How to Insert a Prostate Massager?

Wash It First

It is essential to ensure your toy is clean before using a prostate toy. Even if you just took it out of the packaging, it’s better to be safe than sorry. We have an excellent cleaning guide if you’re unsure how to properly go about it.

Cleaning Sex Toys In The Sink

Empty Those Bowels

Let it all out. You’re about to stick something up your butt, so the need to poop as you begin poking around is a real possibility. Most anal pros will spend the time to get everything empty down there beforehand to prevent any unwanted surprises.

Clean your Butt Area

You want to ensure no dirt, body fluids, or bacteria are present for the best sexual experience possible. I suggest adding douching to your prep for an even cleaner time. The process, in simple terms, is squirting water or saline up your butt to remove any stray fecal matter left inside.

Once you get used to the weird sensation, you’ll feel super clean and ready to get down and dirty.

Find a Comfortable Place to Create the Right Mood

Creating the right sexy vibe is crucial with any sexual playtime. But when it comes to anal play, it’s essential. Feeling even a little bit uncomfortable makes inserting anything up there less fun or even impossible.

Romantic Bedroom

Setting the mood revolves around my super cool red light, my sex light, as I call it, and pressing play on some filthy porn – but that’s just me. There are many ways to set the mood, like lighting some scented candles, playing your favorite sex playlist, or maybe your vibe is getting in the shower and letting the steam fill the room, Titanic style.

Add Lube

Unlike the vagina, the anus doesn’t provide natural lubrication during sex, meaning you should load up on lube inside and out when engaging in anal play. This step will make inserting fingers and toys easier and turn the pleasure dial right up.

Warm Up Using a Finger

Before using your prostate toy, I recommend you first use your finger to feel about the rectal area. You’ll better understand the motions and movements that appeal to you while also getting used to the feeling of a prostate massage. Then, when ready and comfortable, you can proceed with your toy.

Slowly Insert

Put yourself in a comfortable position on your back with your legs lifted or your upper body bent over and resting on a couch or bed. When ready, add some anal lubricant to yourself and the toy; this should make the insertion process more straightforward and less painful.

Spooning Anal Masturbation Position

Pro Tip: If your toy is silicone, using oil-based silicone lube will degrade your toy drastically, so best to use a water-based lube instead.

Vibrating Models

Once inserted inside, you can test the toy’s features if you have chosen a vibrating model. Once you’re familiar with your vibrating toy, you’ll have a favorite setting. For example, if your toy is hands-free, you can try moving to different positions, such as sitting upright or on your knees.

Non-vibrating Models

If you’ve chosen the OG model, you’ll have to manually figure out what motions and movements make you feel the best. You’ll also get used to what motions bring you the most prostate pleasure. The discovery side of anal play is all part of the fun and excitement.

How to use Prostate Massagers Solo?

Solo play with a prostate massager is fantastic, from bringing it in the shower to making things extra hot and steamy to extended wear for some much-needed teasing. It’s not only possible but super fun to insert a prostate massager with a solid base and wear it throughout the day. Solo play is also a great time to try various positions; legs up, bent over on your knees, or your back while jerking off. Get as creative and sexual as you want. Solo play is your time to explore.

How To Use Them with a Partner?

Any anal play is always fun with a partner; using a prostate massager can be not only adventurous and sexy but also very intimate.

You can get a little spicy with your playtime by trying some temperature play; all you need is a glass or stainless steel toy, pop it in the fridge or freezer for 5/10 minutes, or run it under hot water for a few minutes; you can thank me later.

The fun doesn’t stop there; you can play around with it inserted while simultaneously getting a glorious blowjob or any other hot act of love. The choice is yours, be as creative and kinky as you please!

Are there any Risks to Prostate Massagers?

If used responsibly, you and your ass are in good hands with a prostate massager. A few key things to pay attention to are enjoying the level you are on and the size you can handle. Anal play is about pleasure; there is no place for injury here.

Additionally, be aware of the company you are buying from. Try using a reputable seller or a highly reviewed toy on an official website to guarantee a good quality purchase; you don’t want any parts falling off or skin irritations that could ruin your sexy fun.

Conclusion

From everything you’ve read, it should be no surprise that I adore my prostate massager. My sex life has reached a new dimension of pleasure due to these magic sticks. The wonderful thing about them is that they are available in various designs, giving you multiple choices when selecting your toy. It’s also a toy known to help you connect with yourself and your sexuality. So you better be ready for deep fiery pleasure because I know I am.
