Butties Thumb Prostate Plug

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this suitable for beginners?

Yes. This toy is designed to be approachable for people who are new to anal play, provided you choose a size that's appropriate for your experience level. We always recommend starting smaller than you think you need, using plenty of lubricant and taking your time. Anal play should never be painful - listen to your body and progress at your own pace.

What's the difference between a butt plug and anal beads? 

While both are designed for anal play, they create very different sensations. Butt plugs are intended to be inserted and comfortably worn, creating a feeling of fullness and pressure. Anal beads are designed to move through the body one bead at a time, creating waves of sensation during insertion and removal. Many people enjoy slowly removing anal beads during orgasm to enhance pleasure.

Can I wear it during sex?

In most cases, yes. Many people enjoy wearing a butt plug during masturbation, vaginal intercourse or oral sex, as the feeling of fullness can enhance arousal and increase awareness of the pelvic floor. Choose a size that's comfortable for extended wear, and always stop if you experience discomfort.

Can I use it for prostate play? 

Yes. This toy can be used to explore prostate pleasure, although the experience will vary depending on its shape. Curved toys are generally better at targeting the prostate directly, while straighter toys provide more general anal stimulation. Take your time, use plenty of lubricant and experiment with different angles to discover what feels best for your body.

What lubricant should I use?

We recommend pairing all silicone anal toys with a high-quality water-based lubricant. Because the anus doesn't produce its own lubrication, using plenty of lube is essential for comfort and safety. Reapply whenever needed, especially during longer sessions.

How do I clean it?

Wash your toy before and after every use with warm water and a quality toy cleaner or mild soap. Allow it to dry completely before storing it somewhere clean and dry. If you're sharing toys between partners or using them vaginally after anal play, always clean them thoroughly or use a fresh condom over the toy.

Why does it have a flared base?

A flared base is an essential safety feature for any anal toy. Unlike the vagina, the rectum can draw objects further inside the body, so anal toys should always have a wide base or handle to prevent them from travelling too far. Never use a toy for anal play unless it has an appropriate flared base.

How long can I wear it?

There's no strict rule, but comfort should always guide you. If you're new to anal play, start with 10-20 minutes and see how your body feels. Some experienced users enjoy wearing a comfortable butt plug for longer periods, but if you notice pain, numbness or discomfort, remove it straight away. Anal play should always feel pleasurable, not something to endure.

Will it get stuck?

No. When used correctly, an anal toy with a properly designed flared base cannot become "lost" inside the body. The base remains outside the body, making the toy easy to remove. Always choose toys specifically designed for anal use, and never insert objects that don't have a flared base. This is one of the most important safety considerations when exploring anal play.
