Base ring size advise, I think I know the answer....

Good observation - so many people want the tightest base ring they can squeeze into, and that's not always right... I find that if your balls are high and tight, you can go with a larger base ring so long as you bring the gap down and your balls don't pull through. If you're loose and hang, well, that's when having a tighter ring is likely going to be needed.

 

Ditto same problem. Trying different cages to see which works best. SS n silicone. Different rings, designs, n def small cages.

 

nearly all of men think that there ring is to small cos when they get excited it hurts . thats cos it sposed to .

 

it doesn't have to, and I think it's important to realize that different people want different things out of chastity.

 

I just had mature metal reduce my base ring from 1 7/8" to 1 3/4". I felt like my body had adjusted somewhat to chastity and it was too loose. I was wrong. The 1/8" size reduction lead to all kinds of negative side effects, but the worst was night time. I was used to waking up once, maybe twice. Between peeing and lotion I could find quick relief and go back to sleep. With the smaller ring I was waking up 3 or 4 times a night with much worse pain. Peeing and lotion provided some relief, but usually the pain was enough to fully wake me up. Like you I was fine with the smaller ring during the day. I didn't even mind the discomfort during arousal as that comes with the territory. Sleep is an integral part of health and I couldn't justify the disruption.

 

I think it depends on the ring shape, and maybe the gap. In my A273 with the thicker oval ergonomic ring, I go with the 45mm ring fulltime with no pain. In my A226 with the thinner more subtle oval I find that the 45mm ring is a little loose in the daytime (and ione ball can escape sometimes), so I wear to 40mm ring, but that 40mm ring is way too small and painful night and I have to switch to the 45 at night.

 

You probably need something in between a 45 and 50mm. Just a millimeter or two can make a difference. It takes a while to get used to smaller rings, btw. Just make sure you have good circulation and your balls are not getting swollen.

 

please I dint mean that evry man shud have a small ring and if his Mistress says he dont have to then thats ok.

 

I agree here and as mentioned your body will adapt over time the longer your in chastity. I started with a 50mm ring and it was fine, but after a few months I found it was feeling loose. My balls had started to drop, so I tried the others and got in to the 40mm. At first it was great! Held everthing firm in place and was very comfy, them madam teased me a bit, and it was agony, took ages for the swelling to go down, so went up to the 45mm and it’s much better.

 

Started off at 45mm myself. Then dropped to 40mm. But to be honest 38mm is by far the best fit now for me. The old balls have definitely stretched a bit! With my Queens Keep the ring is 40mm (or whatever that is in imperial), but I wear a 38mm plastic ring as well in conjunction. Works well for me. My holiday cage has a 38mm ring.

 

If the two different base rings work, I say stick with it. I'm a grower as well, and I find the 45 is good/slightest bit big for regular wear, but my hardest erections are nocturnal. I've been considering trying a 40 for daily wear, 45 for sleeping, and that's only because of occasional slippage; I was at the beach this past week, and a testicle slipped through while in the cold water.

 

The thickness of the ring can make a big difference.
At the extreme, if the ring was cheese cutter wire thin, then that's exactly what it will do, a wider or flatter ring will spread the pressure over a wider area and so be less likely to cause pain from point pressure on nerves.
In my collection of devices they have rings of different thicknesses, and with rings of the same inside diameter, its the thicker gauge rings that are much more comfortable.
