Are they purple? Numb? Squashed? For goodness sake man, if it hurts, take it off!

My balls have been well and truly pushed around, first in the CB6K and now in the Steelheart, with no apparent damage of any kind. I think they're a lot sturdier than they may appear to be.

In addition to what I just said, yes, if you're experiencing pain, numbness, or discolorment, do what makes sense. Take the damned thing off.

My understanding is that they are pretty tough. I think the time when they need a lot of TLC is during your potential-fathering years when you are trying to maintain fertility. Fluctuations in temperature, tightness of your underwear can have an impact, especially in men with a low sperm count. But if you are past the stage of trying to get your wife pregnant, this is not as much of an issue.

Someday did post about this other day---I can't remember if it was here or at the other board. But seriously, if you and your wife are at the point of needing to see a fertility specialist to conceive, I might suggest holding off on getting and wearing a chastity device. That's just my opinion--I'm not a doctor, nor do I play one on the Internet, but I know a little bit about infertility issues.

Actually, a Ramada, with the guy I am cuckholding my husband with. ;)

Your balls aren't supposed to go in it. Leave them out, it will work better.

Seriously, what I think you have is too short a spacer. See Thumper's blog for detailed help.

Welcome to the forum Wally.

If you are concerned please stop what you are doing and find out what might be wrong, if anything. Take the more conservative approach rather than continue to possibly do damage.

If a couple is actively trying to get pregnant I would probably leave the chastity device off for a while. Like Dev said those balls need to regulate their temperature by moving closer to or farther away from the body (which is why they're outside to beging with). A hard plastic ring, or metal, holding onto them probably interferes with the temperature control.

Our fertility doc suggested three days between sex to get the best sperm. Any sooner and the quantity is low. Any longer and the quality goes downhill. Too bad for J that we're all done having kids so it can go up to three weeks. Or months.

I stayed at a Holiday Inn Express two months ago.
