Frenum Piercing: Experience and Advice

I have both piercings. My PA is much better for securing my devices than my frenum was. All the negatives you list for the frenum piercing are true for me. My PA has been trouble free for decades.

 

I have a frenum piecing for over 10 years, and for most of last year I wore a Badassworkroom piercing attached cage (BA-03, I believe they can adapt it to any cage).

I had to bend the piercing metal rod a tiny bit as erection attempts caused a pinch, but once I had adjusted it there have been no further problems.

Longest continual lock, without the key being used for at all, was 120 days.

I am uncircumcised.

No worries about the piercing at all, no worries about hygiene. A power shower helps.

When I got it the piercing it took perhaps 4 weeks to heal properly but I was told 6 weeks was normal. Daily washing with salt water helped I think. No pain, very little blood. No regrets.

No signs of migration in all the years I have had the piercing.

 

My personal experience was not great with the frenum. I had pain during sex months later and my girlfriend at the time didn’t like how it felt. Finally used it for a device after letting it heal and gauging up, started to tear within a week. The device I had put no strain on the piercing but it didn’t matter.

I actually do not care for my PA not that we don’t use it for chastity, but it worked well for years to secure a device.

 

I have no idea. I having nothing to compare against and only have my own experience.

 

@Gemellia, I don’t have answers for you, but I completely understand your situation and want to compliment you for your very rational process and reasonable questions.

I have had similar questions. Countless people respond to similar threads to say that a PA is the best way (or only way) to secure a chastity device, and that a frenum piercing will migrate or tear. Like you, I am not fond of the idea of having my urethra punctured, for several reasons, despite the fairly large contingent of PA advocates saying how great it is.

Regarding frenum piercings, they almost never distinguish between devices supported by the piercing and devices such as TBDs where the piercing is only for pullout security. I would imagine that it’s possible for a frenum piercing to work well and safely IF (a big IF) the device is well and snugly fitted, and there is little movement either from the device sliding up and down or from erections. I’d be pretty nervous about it.

As alternatives, have you considered the tetherspout or the pivoting “retainer ring” (first seen on Miss Lori’s devices, and since picked up by some other makers)? The tetherspout seems like a secure method that doesn’t require permanent body modification, but the manipulation of different pieces required for installation and removal makes me nervous, as does the potential for irritation, infection, or foreign objects getting stuck inside. The retainer ring idea might work, but I would want a cage/tube designed to allow easy installation but prevent access to the ring while wearing.

Good luck figuring all of this out. Sorry I couldn’t help much, but I’m sort of in the same boat as you.

 

Well there just went any thoughts on getting pierced

 

Frenum: 10 gauge piercing 16 weeks healed. “Tube Only” device virtually weightless and held in place mostly by friction. Secured by a locking barbell. Skin would bunch and pinch between tube and barbell and piercing began to migrate at around 6 months.

PA piercing: quicker healing zero issue and has secured 8 different chastity devices. 5 ball trap and 3 tube devices. I consider ball trap devices and frenum piercings to be unsuitable for continuous wear (YMMV). Both piercings were done in the mid-eighties.

But, I think they have gone out of business. There was a lengthy thread here on CM about it a while ago.

 

Maybe more time for the frenum. My ex wanted to rush it a bit but it had been a few months and I was at 6 gauge. She really just dinged care for how it felt for her so when it had an issue we just let it close.

My PA is a 4 gauge and works very well for cages and tube devices! It just took several cages and fine tuning to make them comfortable. I just don’t care for having to put my finger over the extra hole all the time! Always having to sit with a trapped ball cage, the tube I was able to stand.

We are taking a break from all of this recently after 10+ years of it together so now the piercing is just whatever. Not a big deal though. I still prefer everything about the PA over the frenum. The PA just had a stronger feeling of security mentally as well, more severe to try to escape.

 

Sorry, I can't help. My GF did all of the measuring and ordering, and the cage and piercing are just right. It took a couple of custom BAWR cages to get right, and a couple of plastic 3d printed ones prior to that.

 

You really don’t notice it after healing and sizing up. I was a bit tender front the smaller gages but the 4 ga feels good. If you get one (either), just take extra time healing and sizing up is my advice. We took at least 4 months I think before using the PA for a cage. Tough to wait but worth it since it caused no trouble. The feeling of security is amazing!

 

pierced at 10 gauge, 8g, 6 months post healing, 6g, for decades, I stretched to 2g for a hollow PA tube about 3 years ago.

 

Thanks for your report. How did you allign your foreskin during that 120 days? Pulled back?i
Which shape does your percing have? Does it block the foreskin from geting in front?

 

No particular way. Pulled back when washing and drying, and then it somehow naturally finds it's own way of being.

Mine is a curved bar and looks a lot like this: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Frenum_piercing_curved_barbell_1.jpg

The piercing attachment doesn't block anything from what I can tell, everything just sits in there just fine.

 

Looks nice, seems to be more decorative.
I had a long barbell in mind, maybe as pullout prevention.
I am astonished that hygiene can work so well.

 

I definitely cannot pull out without ripping sensitive skin.

Power shower, soap, and earbuds work just fine.

 

Thanks for the info.
