How To Insert Your Kegel Balls

When you're all lubed up and ready to go, do the following:
- Lie down in a position that feels comfortable to you.
- Insert the Kegel balls slowly. No need to rush into it.
- Typically, the Kegel balls are connected to each other with a string. Make sure to insert that into your vagina too.
- Once the string is all up there, slowly push the second ball into your vagina.
- Push the Kegel balls to the point in your vagina that you feel comfortable with.
- Ensure that the string or loop which is used to pull the Kegel balls out is not tucked into your vagina. It should be on the outside of your vagina.
- Lastly, tighten your pelvic floor muscles to keep your Kegel balls inside and continue your daily activities.
- Tip: If you feel like the Kegel balls are slipping out, or one of the balls is visible outside of your vagina, push it deeper in.

So, after you have inserted the Kegel balls, you need to decide what you will use them for. If you want to use them solely for strengthening your pelvic floor muscles, for solo pleasure, or enhancing your sex life with a partner, it's all up to you, babe.
Let's look at what is required for each of these activities.
For Pelvic Exercise
If you want to experiment and add Kegel balls to your routine, you should do the following:
- Get on your back, lube yourself and the Kegel balls up, and insert them.
- Tighten your pelvic floor muscles so you can lift and squeeze them.
- Hold on and squeeze for 5 seconds, then relax for 5 seconds.
- Repeat 5 times to do a set. You can do up to 3 sets a day.
For Solo Pleasure
Kegel balls are not used in the same ways as other sex toys are. And although you can pull them in and out, you will find that leaving them inside is actually way more pleasurable.
So here are some ways that you can intensify your solo pleasure with your Kegel balls:
- While you're lying in bed, insert your Kegel balls and start squeezing your pelvic muscles. Now, as your body gets more aroused and lubricated, go on a journey of exploring your body and discovering what you like.
- Another way is to insert the Kegel balls and then grab your favorite vibrator. Circle around your clitoris and your vaginal opening with your vibrator.
For Partnered Sex
Kegel balls can definitely get things all hot and bothered between you and your partner. And it will definitely increase sensitivity during vaginal sex. You can insert your Kegel balls before you head out on your date and view them as a starter, or you can insert them during foreplay. The longer the Kegel balls are inside of you, the more aroused you're going to be for the main dish.😉
Oh, and Kegel balls can even make anal sex more enjoyable. During anal sex, the Kegel balls in your vagina will push against your G-spot, which will make the experience so much more intense and satisfying.
But here's a little disclaimer, please don't ever attempt to put the Kegel balls inside of your anus. (!) They are not made for this purpose and can cause discomfort, pain, or worse, they can even become stuck. But some beads are specifically suited for anal play if you're interested in experimenting with anal play.
How to Remove Your Kegel Balls
Depending on your body chemistry and the type of Kegel balls you use, you can leave them in your vagina for up to 6 hours. Let's have a look at how to remove them.
So, if your Kegel balls have a string or loop attached to them, you will do the following:
- Lay down in a position that feels comfortable to you.
- Add some extra lube to your vaginal opening.
- Relax your pelvic floor and breathe.
- Slowly pull on the string or loop until the Kegel balls slide out.
Now, if the Kegel balls are separated, you will do the following:
- Stand with your feet just a bit wider than hip distance apart.
- Next, just bend your knees a little until you feel comfortable in a squatting position.
- Now squeeze your vagina muscles like you would do to get your tampon out or another sex toy.
