How to Use a Penis Pump: Get Longer-Lasting & Firmer Erections

Babe is coming over. The bed’s ready. Condoms are in place. Lube’s chillin’ on your bedside table. All is well… or is it?

But then, something starts to bother you. You can’t pinpoint it at first but as you look down there, you realized the thing that’s making you anxious.

Is your schlong gonna be firm enough, or is it going to let you down (literally) again?

Sometimes, the penis might not ‘cooperate’ during sex– and that’s okay. It’s normal to have those moments, so if it has happened to you once or twice, don’t get too bothered.

But if you want to improve your sex life by lasting longer in bed or making your dick bigger, you can get help from simple yet reliable sex tools– such as a penis pump.

What is a Penis Pump?

A penis pump is a sex toy that can bring longer and thicker erections. Also known as a vacuum pump or vacuum erection pump, it consists of the following parts:

• Plastic tube that fits over the penis.
• Hand or battery-powered pump connected to the tube.
• Band or ring that fits around the base of the penis once it is erect.

Benefits of Using a Penis Pump

Now, you might be thinking, why is this sex toy better than pills or other ED medications? Is it effective enough? Here are the reasons why you should invest in a penis pump.

1You’ll last longer during sex.

Though penis pumps are more known for enlarging the penis, the benefit of using this device is prolonging your erection. The pressure added to your schlong increases the blood flow to the penis, resulting in longer-lasting erections. In fact, some people with Erectile Dysfunction use this device along with their other ED treatments.

However, the effect could only last for about 10-15 minutes. If you want to extend it further, we recommend using a cock ring after pumping your penis.

2You’ll get a firmer and slightly longer erection.

With increased blood flow in the penis, you might notice that your erection is firmer than usual. Some also say that their penis has become longer and thicker by regularly using penis pumps, but there’s no study to verify this claim. Most of the “larger penis” claims came from testimonials online.

3It’s an affordable and less risky way of getting a firmer erection.

If you’re looking for a safe and affordable way of firming your erections, using a penis pump is a great option. The cost is lower compared to surgery. You can reuse this sex toy if you’ve invested in a high-quality penis pump instead of consuming pills and drinks that don’t guarantee results. It’s also safer compared to penile implants, suppositories, or injections.

4It can intensify your orgasms.

Some people have reported that using a penis pump has increased sensitivity in their hard-on. That means stronger orgasms! However, the effects of a penis pump may vary from person to person. Some may have a more sensitive dick, while others may actually have less sensitivity in the area.

Risks of Using a Penis Pump

Using a penis pump isn’t scary as one might think. Most healthcare professionals consider it a safe and effective sex toy for ED patients. However, there are still risks that you can get from this sex tool.

1It can bring discomfort and other side effects.

How you use a penis pump matters a lot. You could feel some minor pain if you’re not following the instructions. Red dots may also appear on your schlong. Petechiae are tiny, circular, rash-like patches that may appear under the skin of your penis. No worries about this, though, as it will fade after using this toy.

2If you have high expectations, you may end up disappointed.

Some sex toy shops have been hyping out penis pumps as the god-send device to lengthen penises. It may increase the firmness of your dick, but it wouldn’t necessarily make it 3 inches longer. Please don’t get this sex toy expecting that your penis will magically increase in length. Besides, size doesn’t necessarily matter, especially if you’re the master in oral sex, fingering, and foreplay.

3It’s awkward to use at first, especially if your partner is around.

A penis pump can either sizzle or fizzle the mood. That’s why before using this sexual wellness tool, let the other person know. In this way, the person can expect what’s about to happen. If you’re already familiar with the tool, we recommend letting your partner pump the toy for you to get them involved— ask them to be careful, though, as pumping too hard or too fast can lead to mishaps.

How to Use a Penis Pump

Wondering how to use penis pump? We got you. Here’s a simple guide on using this exquisite sex toy. By following our instructions, ensure to get a pleasurable pumping experience, mess-free! Note: These are general instructions. For a more specific guide, check the instructions printed on your pump’s manual/box.

1Make the necessary preparations.

Before you dive in, make sure to read the instructions for the penis pump that you’ll be using. We also recommend letting your partner know you’ll use this toy during intercourse. Aside from that, shave off your pubic hair so the cylinder can easily slide in and out. You must also check the penis pump and see if it fits properly. It should be tight enough but not too tight that it’s painful to use.

2Get into a comfortable position.

Once you’ve got everything prepared, you can start with the pumping. It’s up to you, but you can lie in your bed, sit on your couch, kneel down on your bed, or even stand up. Go for the position that makes sense to you.

3Apply lubricant for easier insertion.

Apply water-based lubricant around the open end of the cylinder, the head of the penis, and 2 inches inside the cylinder. This ensures comfortable insertion and removal of the cylinder— the last thing you would want is your schlong getting stuck there, albeit that’s a rare case for this pleasure device. Note: Only use a quality water-based lube. Using a silicone-based lube may damage the penis pump.

4Insert your penis in the pump and turn it on.

Gently push your semi-erect or erect penis into the designated cylinder. Once your penis is fully inserted into the cylinder, start pumping using the hand pump or electric motor. You should feel a pulling sensation as the vacuum pulls blood into the penis.

Keep on pumping until you get your desired pressure. Do not keep the tube for more than 15 minutes. It can affect the blood flow and may bring harm to your penis.

5Remove the tube and proceed with the deed.

Before removing the pressure, hold the fully engorged erection without movement inside the cylinder for 3-5 minutes. After that, remove the pressure and slip your dick out to let sexytime begin.

If your penis pump set has a cock ring or constriction ring, you can slide it down over the penis and roll it until it hits the base.

What’s the cock ring for? It helps the penis to maintain its firm erection. It constricts the blood flow and keeps the blood in penile tissue, keeping the erection firm enough. Note: Only keep the cock ring in place for 20 minutes. Keeping it in for a longer time could harm your penis.

6Clean the device.

Most of the parts of a pump can be cleaned from the outside. However, certain parts require you to disassemble the pump first. These parts include the penile tube, the loading cone, and the bushing adapter.

Each of these parts can be cleaned with water and very mild soap. Use the water as well as gentle scrubbing.

After cleaning all the parts, let them dry before storing them. Store it in a place separate from your other sex toys to avoid contamination.
