What are Kegel Balls?
Kegels balls are small weights for the vagina. They’re also referred to as Ben wa balls, love balls or geisha balls. They’re medical devices, as well as, sex toys. They help train and strengthen your pelvic floor muscles, which protects you from incontinence and also makes sure better orgasms. Ben wa balls are multifunctional and you must have them in your drawer.
Geisha balls do not have any side effects. You can use them without any worry as a supplement to your pelvic floor training. However, the only thing that might happen is that you experience vaginal muscle ache. But, this only happens if you train too much.
Types of Balls
Even though Fifty Shades of Grey has suddenly pushed love balls to the center stage, they’ve been around for more than hundreds of years. There are various types of kegel balls for beginners and advanced players available out there. You can choose between single and double balls depending on your preference. Some of the popular ones are explained below.
- Duotone love balls – Duotone geisha balls are typically made of hollow plastic balls and they’re coated in silicone. The hollow space is filled with small weighted metal balls that typically roll around inside as the body moves. This causes subtle vibrations. These can be made of other materials as well, such as glass and might be adorned with decorative items. The two balls are usually the size of standard marbles, but you can find them in many other sizes to suit your specific needs. Some of the duotone balls come with strings or harnesses.
- Kegel Ben wa balls – These are typically made for wearing while you are performing kegel exercises. They’re usually bigger than standard yoni balls or even duotone Ben wa balls. Also, they’re a lot more rigid and sturdier than other types of love balls and come in different weights and sizes. Kegel Ben wa balls are also made available in adjustable weights. So, you can start with a lighter kegel ball and gradually increase the weight.
- String or no string kegel balls – Geisha balls can come with or without strings and harnesses attached to them. The ones that do come with strings or harnesses are designed to keep the dual balls together when they’re being used and also makes it easy to remove them. These harnesses might be made of silicone and the strings can be made of any strong material. Kegel balls that come with strings make it easier to move the balls around when they’re inside and this helps in causing added stimulation.
- Vibrating love balls – Vibrating kegel balls come with a vibrating device inside. They have discreet batteries and can be made without or with wires. They may also come with or without a remote-control device. Even though these geisha balls are small, they send powerful vibrating sensations for stimulation. Some of them can come with 5 to 6 different speeds. The ones with remote control are a lot more fun with a partner as the vibration speed can be controlled by whoever has the remote. The vibrating balls can be used not just for vaginal pleasure, but also for anal pleasure.
What Materials are Used for Ben Wa Balls?
Traditionally, kegel balls for women have been made of glass or solid metal. But, the modern versions are made with different types of materials including:
- Silicone
- Stainless steel
- Plastic
The type of material has a huge impact on the overall experience. The difficulty of holding these kegel weights inside the vagina can vary based on the material. Love balls made of stainless steel might be difficult to hold and much better suited to advanced users. Silicone covered plastic Ben wa balls are easier to hold in and can be used by beginners.
An advantage of the glass or metal balls is that they’re easier to clean. This convenience factor is one of the main reasons why so many women prefer kegel balls made of glass or metal. Also, silicone balls are easy to clean and maintain.
Choosing the Right Size & Weight
Vagina balls are made available in a range of different sizes. Some balls are better sized to suit some women than others. It is very important that the ball you select feels comfortable inside your vagina and stays in place when you are performing upright kegel ball exercises. Small kegel balls are around 28mm in diameter, and medium and large balls can go up to 36mm in diameter. To choose the right size, you need to determine your internal size. Some of the ways to do that are:
- Know your perfect tampon size is
- Measuring the inside of the vagina with your fingers. If you can slip in two fingers and there is a comfortable fit, you should either use small or medium-sized kegel balls
- If a small-sized tampon easily slips out, you would require medium or large kegel balls.
In case you’re still not sure of what size kegel ball is right for you, consult your gynecologist or healthcare provider.
The weight of the kegel ball can vary between 28 to 78g and 30 to 140g. It is recommended that you start with the smallest weight and progress from there.
Selecting the Ideal Kegel Ball Design
Basically, kegel balls come in two designs – single balls and two balls. They can be molded or held together using a string or harness. They also come without the string or harness.
- Single Ben wa ball design – They are the lightest in weight and suited to small internal size. They are ideal for beginners.
- Two ball design – They range from medium to heavy weight and suited to medium or large internal size. These are perfect for individuals looking to progress kegel.
How to Correctly Use Kegel Balls?
If you are unsure of how to use kegel balls, you can follow the given steps.
- Clean the toy properly before inserting it inside your vagina. You can boil it or clean it using light soap and water.
- Lay back in your most comfortable position, grab a lubricant and apply a small amount on your kegel balls before pushing it inside of you. Make sure to insert it slowly and gently, especially if it is your first time.
