Short answer
Start with short sessions, around 10 to 20 minutes, and build up gradually as your body gets used to it. Smaller plugs with slim necks are best for longer wear. Remove the plug if you feel numbness, aching, or any sharp sensation, and give your body breaks between sessions. If you have ongoing discomfort or a medical condition affecting your bowel or anus, check with a clinician first.
