If you have a PA and it will be weight bearing I think 5mm is probably the smallest ring size I would recommend.
5 or 6mm is probably best..... whatever guage they might be does not matter leave that to the engineers. If you ask for the size you want in mm the piercer will know what you mean and if not leave immidiately and find another (better) piercer
I was really wondering what the smallest size would be so that it is secure enouggh and difficult to remove.
You have to remember that the devices weight will pull on the piercing possibly causing your piercing to migrate or travel. Also the smaller sizes will get sore a lot quicker as they are more likely to cut into skin under the right conditions. Think of a chess board. The smallest at least for a PA is still about 5mm I say.
Pierce with a 8 gauge. Wait 6 weeks then with a taper go to 6 ga. After another 4 weeks get another taper for 4 ga. That is the minimum for most to not encounter problems using it for chastity. The larger the better but it takes time to stretch up, plus changing cage piercing hardware will be required.
Thanks everyone. I will take your advice on board. I would prefer not to use my piercing at all. Rather I would really like something that would indicate to my kh wife that I have tampered with the device.
Having got my PA up to 6mm I found it quite difficult to get a device with a 6mm fixing. The one from Ms Lori was about 4mm. Steelworxx recommended 4mm for the looker 3 PA loop. I think the PA fixing for the Halfshell I have is about 4 mm also
I agree, 5-6 mm is best. 6mm is what I have. The first device I used in the PA was the good old PS-5000 which came with lots of different size fittings, so once I could get a 3mm in there, I wore that and the weight of the CD when flaccid opened it up a bit, then I moved to the next biggest. A streching taper (the curved one) is also useful. The thing that surprised me that, during a few years when we weren't doing chastity, the hole shrank but never closed. Once you have it, it's there for life unless you get an op. from your urologist. A bit of a pain as peeing standing up is hazardous- I always sit down. Still, I'm glad it never completely closed because now I've opened it up to 6 or 7 mm again, and we're happily playing again. Here's a conversion chart, I find "guage" counterintuitive because the number gets smaller as the thing gets bigger. What's wrong with mm? Anyway, good luck Senior46.
