Difficulties with wearing a device? discussion

I’ve run into a few growing pains with my HTV2 since I started using it (I mentioned this in the Newbies section, though perhaps I should have posted it here under ‘Difficulties with wearing a device:) Link is the archived discussion To sum up, the 50mm base ring feels too loose (I accidentally pulled it out one day), while the next size down at 45mm seems a bit tight. I’m struggling to get everything through the opening. The skin on the front of my sac has become tender because I have to pull hard to push my balls through, and keep them in place until both are settled. Fortunately, the skin around where the base ring sits is fine—it’s not pinching there—but the sore spot is higher up, right where I tug the skin to make enough room for my balls.

The discomfort only really sets in after I’ve worn the cage for some time. Right now, I’m out of it to let things calm down. However, I worry that getting back into the ring might cause more soreness later on. Perhaps I just need stronger testicles and push through:eek:

I think my ideal size is somewhere between 45mm and larger. Currently, I’m considering The Vice from Locked in Lust—mainly because it features a hinged base ring (meaning no wrestling with the opening) and comes in 46.5mm and 48.5mm options, which might fit better.

That said, I really enjoy how comfortable the HT cage feels; it fits snugly without being uncomfortable. So it’s frustrating not to be able to wear it right now. But as a newcomer to chastity and cage-wearing, I know most guys struggle with off-the-shelf devices and have to experiment before finding their perfect match. For me, though, I’m not quite ready to jump straight into a custom-made steel cage yet—though that might happen eventually (not cum:()
