I think it’s safe to say that pretty much every single penis-owner reading this article right now has masturbated and achieved an orgasm at least once in their lives.
Now, it can get easy to get into a funk with your masturbation habits though. Same sites, same quick dopamine release, same pornstars and porn clips you enjoy…sure, it still feels good, but even good stuff gets old eventually.
And, despite being obviously biased as a sex toy writer, I am still pretty confident in saying that male sex toys are one of the quickest, most reliable ways of changing up the old routine and finding ways to stimulate your body.
The selection has become pretty great, even overwhelming to a degree – these days, we have stuff like automatic blowjob toys, automatic Fleshlights of various kinds, pornstar-inspired pocket pussies, and a gazillion other interesting stuff.
One category of toys that still get a bit of a mixed response (particularly among straight men for obvious reasons) are prostate stimulation toys.
The idea of prostate stimulation can be triggering for a lot of folks out there. And yes, there are folks out there who simply won’t enjoy it. And this is completely fine!
However, it is worth trying at least once. The masturbation experience and the orgasm feel completely different from your average jerk off session.
I myself don’t engage with prostate stimulation on a regular basis. This is something that I have reserved for special occasions. Those nights when I am completely alone, totally relaxed, and have all the time in the world to just indulge in my body and experiment a bit.
How to start with prostate play? Well, prostate massagers are my go-to suggestion. These toys are specifically designed to stimulate the right areas and sort of “foolproof” the journey.
A good prostate massager will find the right spots and stimulate them in ways that will ideally result in an orgasm even if you have no idea what you are doing.
Today, I will be giving you my thoughts on the best prostate massagers out there. All with the hopes that you’ll find a toy suited to start your own prostate stimulation journey.
Without further ado, these are the best prostate massagers currently available:
• Best Overall – “Lovense Edge 2”
• Best For Beginners – “Aneros Helix Trident”
• Best For Couples – “LELO LOKI Wave 2”
• Best Prostate Stimulation Dildo – “Njoy Pure Wand”
• Best Anal Beads – “Lovense Ridge”
Best Overall – “Lovense Edge 2”
Key features: unlimited pattern creation, two separate motors, adjustable neck, dual stimulation for both the perineum and the prostate
Lovense Edge 2 looks somewhat intimidating. The insertable part looks bulky, black, and not something that you’d want to get into a non-initiated butt.
However, it still stands as our current top pick for a prostate massager. Why? Simply because the customization options here are to-die-for. The selection of patterns and intensities offers amazing variety, the toy can be synced to music, and it even has a morning alarm function where you can choose to be woken up to a sweet buzz from your very ass.
These types of additional features, by the way, are common for both Lovense toys for men and Lovense vibrators. If you are into interactive stimulation experiences then feel free to check out other Lovense stuff besides the Edge 2 as well.
Oh, and just letting you know that the Edge 2 can work together combined with penis-focused toys as well. In fact, I chose the Edge 2 + Lovense Gush 2 combination as one of the best gooner picks out there.
Now, all the additional treats are nice and all, but how does this thing feel? In a word – awesome. The Edge has two separate motors, both deep and rumbly. One of them focused on stimulating the perineum and the other one focused on stimulating the prostate. The result is amazing, even overwhelming at times. In the best way possible.
Is this something I’d get as my first prostate massager? If you are serious about exploring the prostate orgasm then the result is a resounding yes.
If you are not completely sure whether you’d even enjoy taking something up your ass then I’d perhaps choose something slightly cheaper and smaller.
All in all though – my favorite prostate massager on the market right now.
Best For Beginners – “Aneros Helix Trident”
Key features: affordable, a good pick for a first prostate massager, the rigid build makes the stimulation feel intense yet beginner-friendly, small size
I mentioned using smaller stuff as an entry-point to prostate stimulation.
The massager we are looking at next is just that. The Helix Trident from Aneros is one of the best picks for someone with a virgin prostate.
For one, it is small enough so you won’t get intimidated immediately as you get it out of the box.
Second, Aneros as a company has a medical background so you can bet these folks know what they are doing when designing their toys.
Third, it leans on the cheaper end of prostate massagers too. Not saying it’s a complete cheapie at about $50, but at least you haven’t thrown hundreds to the bit after discovering that you simply hate having anything up there.
How does it feel though? Compared to some other prostate vibrators on this list, the Helix Trident offers a much slower ride to satisfaction. There is no vibration or anything automatic here so the design and the fit of the toy will have to do all the talking.
Due to the small size, even a beginner will most likely have no issues with taking the Helix Trident – just let it enter you slowly, breathe, and feel everything happening in your body.
Once you’re fully comfortable with the sensation and start to feel that little “tickle” in your prostate area, feel free to start playing with your penis as well. You are already probably rock hard so it’ll feel natural to start jerking off a bit.
For me, the best experiences with Helix Trident have happened when I have jerked off ever-so-slowly while going for a slight back-and-forth motion with my Trident.
This slow approach seems to work very well with the toy and you can bet that the eventual orgasm is pretty darn good compared to an average session.
Any downsides? Well, as good as it feels, I haven’t been able to have a hands-off orgasm from this one just yet. Guess I am not experienced enough yet or just need a stronger buzz to get off from prostate stimulation alone.
The small size and relatively cheap size do make it a great first testing experience for someone who is completely unfamiliar with stimulating their butt though.
Best For Couples – “LELO LOKI Wave 2”
Key features: great design both in terms of functionality and aesthetics, unique “come hither” motion stimulation, a great range of different intensity settings, a good pick for couples, completely waterproof, dual stimulation
If the last one was something that would play well with a virgin prostate then the LELO Loki Wave 2 is something more of an acquired taste.
Much like the Edge 2 from Lovense, the LOKI Wave 2 will simultaneously target two areas – the prostate and the perineum. The smaller tip will treat your perinemum while the larger one will deliver the goods to the prostate.
What makes the Loki Wave 2 so special though is how human and “personal” it feels. Yes, I know how weird that sounds, but hear me out – they have designed this prostate stimulator to feel like the “come hither” motion done with fingers.
You know, that special finger trick that many folks expertly use to bring a vulva-owner to a squirting orgasm.
Turns out that this motion works well for a prostate massager too. The pressure on the prostate feels active instead of passive. Like someone just wants to milk your stuff until your knees are weak.
It takes some time to get used to it though so don’t dive in head first. If you jump in too fast then you may find the stimulation sharp and annoying at first. It may turn you off from the entire experience immediately and you’ll miss out on a lot of good stuff.
Start on the slower settings and find the angles that feel most natural and pleasurable to you. This is not difficult as the handle placement on the Loki Wave 2 is great. Even in the heat of the action, the massager will sit in your hand well and allow you to focus on your pleasure.
If you are a long-time reader of Sex Toy Magazine then you already know that LELO is one of the most couple-friendly toy brands out there. This goes for both LELO toys for men and LELO vibrators. Pretty much everything in their line-up is something that you naturally want to use with someone else.
And this goes for Loki Wave 2. Start by learning how to pleasure yourself with it first, but if you have a partner…then, well, give them the reins from time to time.
Nothing quite like being fully, completely relaxed and laying on your back while a special someone treats you to that wonderful “come hither” motion from the Loki Wave 2.
Best Prostate Stimulation Dildo – “Njoy Pure Wand”
Key features: great for temperature play, suitable for vulva-owners as well, the weight emphasizes the pressure on the prostate, beautiful design
For those who are at least somewhat into sex toys, the Njoy Pure Wand is probably already a familiar name.
You see, this wand dildo has garnered a bit of a cult status among bedroom toy enthusiasts.
At a glance, it looks super simple and it doesn’t really even make any sense for something like this to be as celebrated (and frankly, expensive!) as it is. I mean, it’s a curved stainless steel dildo without any additional treats like vibration modes, remotes, or apps. All you have is a metal stick with a ball on both tips.
But it works. It just works.
The main treat for me is how heavy it feels. There’s something about the “harshness” and the weight of the metal that just fills you up like nothing else out there. Find your spot and just go for some slow in-and-out and you’ll see what I’m talking about.
If you want to turn things up a notch then I’d also suggest engaging with some temperature play. The cold in particular works very well with the Njoy Wand.
Have it lay in ice for a while and then let it come inside. The shock from the cold feels like another layer of pleasure. Plus, you get to feel as the wand slowly heats up inside you.
Beautiful, beautiful stuff!
Best Anal Beads – “Lovense Ridge”
Key features: feels like a wonderful internal massage, loads of interactive features like long-distance connectivity, the orgasm feels amazing when pulled out immediately before ejaculating, very quiet
Anal beads are some of the very best toys when it comes to practicing various things anal. Designs where smaller balls flow to bigger ones in particular are amazing as starter toys – you get to prepare your ass in a super slow, smooth manner. No shocks, no twitches.
The Lovense Ridge takes the concept of anal beads and improves on it – this one also rotates and vibrates. In a manner that directly stimulates the prostate.
How does it feel? Well, deep is the first word that comes to mind. Since it rotates and vibrates at the same time, the prostate stimulation here is something that will feel all-over-the-body and fulfilling.
Like a massage from within.
I was also taken aback by just how quiet it is. This is the one that you’ll want to use if you want to enjoy your prostate stimulation in a shared space with roommates or parents or the like. Just close a door and you’ll get away with it. It is also shower-friendly so you can just use it in a shower. In fact, warm water plays pretty well with prostate stimulation in general.
Oh, and you also have the same fun interactive features that the Lovense Edge 2 has – sound activation, music activation, long-distance control…all of this fun stuff is in there.
Want to go the anal bead route for prostate stim? Ridge is your best bet here.
Before I wrap this one up, let me mention one thing again – prostate stimulation is not for everyone. This is just an unfortunate truth about this stuff. You can hit the right spots, use the right toys, be in the right mindset…and it still may end up doing next to nothing.
The risk-to-reward ratio is still pretty solid though. When prostate stimulation hits…then, well, it hits pretty god damn well.
Prostate orgasms last longer, feel all-over-the-place in the best way possible, and there’s also the undeniable allure of doing something “weird”.
Oh, and one more thing – if prostate stimulation doesn’t immediately do it for you, but you still feel a tiny bit of pleasure then I’d suggest you to keep trying. It can take time to become comfortable with prostate stimulation. I can’t give you a concrete timeline because all of our bodies are too different.
What I can say though is that it took a good month or so before I even started to feel comfortable with having things up my ass.
With that, I’ll wrap this article up before I talk a little too much about my butthole.
Good night!
