How to measure yourself for a chastity cage
One of the most important steps as you start your journey into chastity play is learning how to choose a correctly sized cage. The perfect cage will have a tight fit that prevents erections without cutting off blood flow to the penis, allowing the user to enjoy chastity. There should never be pain, discomfort or injury.
Here are some tips for choosing a correctly sized cage.
Understanding Chastity Cages
The chastity cage is comprised of two components:
• A ring that goes around the penis and testicles
• A cage that is worn over the penis and attached to the ring
Though this may appear minor, it provides essential context for what comes next.
Taking Measurements
You’ll need two different measurements to be able to pick out a cage that fits you properly.
Step 1 - Preparation
Before taking your measurements, make sure you have the right tools on hand. You can use a piece of string or fabric together with a ruler to measure yourself. If you find it difficult to get a tape measure to lie smoothly against your body, it may not be the most convenient option. Choose whatever method feels easiest and helps you get accurate results.
Step 2 - Getting Comfortable
The next step is to ensure you’re in a relaxed, natural state before measuring. Heat—such as from a warm shower or bath—can increase blood flow and lead to an inaccurate reading, while measuring in a cold environment can make the measurement smaller than normal. Either extreme can result in choosing a cage that’s too loose, too tight, or even unsafe. The best time to measure is when you’re fully flaccid, comfortable, and in a space that isn’t too warm or too cold.
Step 3 - Measure Yourself
The third and final step is taking the measurements. The first measurement will be for the base ring. Measure around the base of your penis and behind the testicles, where the ring would be fitted if you were to wear it. This will provide you with the circumference, which then needs to be divided by pi (approximately 3.14) to give you the diameter.
The second measurement you’ll need is the length of the cage. Measure from the base of your penis to the tip of the head. If you carry extra stomach fat, press the ruler gently against your pubic bone to ensure an accurate reading.
Next, you can take a measurement for the cage’s diameter, similar to how you measured for the base ring. Wrap the measuring tape around the base of your penis, then divide that number by π to determine the diameter. This helps if you want a precise fit for the cage.
With the math and measurements done, you’re ready to choose the sizes that will best suit your package.
Choosing Your Size
Selecting the right ring and cage size is fairly simple, though there are a few key differences between them:
• Choose a ring size that matches your measurement as closely as possible.
• Select a cage length that is slightly shorter than your measured length—about ¼ inch to ½ inch shorter—to ensure a secure fit.
• Pick a cage diameter that matches your diameter measurement or is just a bit smaller.
How Tight Should a Chastity Cage Be?
Your cage should have a comfortable, secure fit—not overly tight. A cage that’s too tight can cause discomfort and may even lead to injury. Aim for a fit that feels snug without creating pain or pressure.
Is My Chastity Cage Too Big?
If the cage is too large, it will feel loose or may not stay in place properly. Using the measurements you gathered will help ensure the base ring fits correctly. If the cage portion is oversized, you may experience more movement or unwanted room for erections. Additionally, if the cage has an opening for urination, an improper fit can cause misalignment and lead to messes.
