I have recently completed a frenum piercing, but it has taken a long time to get here.
At A Glance Author joshyboy Contact joshyboy@bme.anon When It just happened It all started one night when I was bored and, for reasons I still don't know of (but most likely boredom), I started poking my frenulum with a wire that was near me. It actually felt good, and wondered whether I should just pierce it then and there, when I started to think how embarrassing it would be to explain a massive infection in my penis if anything went wrong. So I did some research on it online, and it just so happened that the first site to appear on a search was BME-zine. I checked out the experiences of others who pierced their frenum themselves, and all their stories seemed to be free of trauma or problems and I had everything to sort of sterilise everything. I checked all over the internet and found out heaps of stuff on cleanliness etc. I considered all the information and cleaned a safety pin as clean as I could according to all the information. I also pierced a whole lot of them as I knew I'd probably want to do it again. I went ahead and pierced it. It was not painful at all, it just popped and there it was. I had to leave the safety pin in there because I hadn't any jewellery yet.
The next day, I went to buy a curved barbell, bought it, and inserted it where the safety pin was. I found it hard to stretch the hole as the safety pin was exceptionally small. Eventually I just pulled out the pin and shoved the end of the barbell into the hole. It took a while after that to first try and find the hole on the other side, and try to push it through. To give you and idea, the barbell was about 14 gauge and the pin was probably 24 gauge! After pushing and prodding around the inside of my frenulum, it all went to plan, I soaked it in saline, but afterwards when I tried to position it a bit more symmetrically, it hurt incredibly. I thought that I must have got it too close to a nerve, so I removed it and let it heal.
A few weeks later, I tried piercing it again. I didn't quite get it through before I suddenly had an orgasm. I guess I must have been tugging on a nerve! More weeks past, and I tried experimenting with a lorum. I got it through, but I still had an orgasm at the same time. It wasn't quite straight so I pulled it out and couldn't be bothered trying to straighten it. Next I tried a Prince Albert, but I couldn't finish it with the mess that again sprayed as I tried. I don't know, maybe it's me, but for every piercing where other guy's penises apparently go into hibernation, mine was more than out in its full glory, completely erect and ready for orgasm!
I tried it one more time, this time determined to complete the procedure. It was fully erect as I pierced and remained erect when I had finished, but without ejaculation this time. I felt so pleased that I had done it. I stretched it and pulled the barbell through. I tried to move it around, and this time it did so willingly and without pain. Now I really felt good. I did the normal clean-up, that is, soaked it in saline (which seems to take forever), washed it out and covered it.
I soon realised that it was a really bad time of year to get a piercing down there. Many sites said to make sure it stayed cool and dry. It was christmas over here in Australia and, for those who spend christmas dreaming of a white christmas, dashing through the snow, this will come as a shock. It was 40 degrees in the shade, and it is so humid you can hardly move. While I am attempting to keep my precious piercing dry and cool, the air is hot and humid and my groin is soaked in sweat. It seems to be coping alright and I don't wear anything at night so it should be alright.
By the way, self-piercing is incredibly risky, and unless you're willing to explain why your penis is loaded with pus and infected, or want to get a penectomy, then don't do it. Of course, if you're impulsive and don't think of consequences until you act, like me, then you'll probably read this as a success story and do it anyway. If you're one of those people, please think, but my little message here probably won't discourage you as you're probably determined to see only the benefits anyway!
