One of the most common concerns for chastity newcomers is: “Does chastity shrink your penis?” The easy answer to that is: if you want to.

Today, I’ll talk about the reality behind male chastity shrinking: what is it? Is it reversible? Being a locked man who has lived the chastity lifestyle for over ten years, I know the difference between the metropolitan legends we always’ve been hearing in the male chastity world, and the actual penis shrinkage that can happen over time.

Does Chastity Shrink your Penis

It depends. You can avoid entirely this secondary effect, or you can work towards it; but now, male chastity in itself won’t cause your penis to shrink.

The main factors that influence penile shrinkage are:

  • Size of the chastity cage
  • Frequency of unlocks
  • Length of time unlocked
  • Amount of erection/playtime
  • Hormone therapy

Why is Chastity Associated with Shrinking

The shrinking of the cock is an optional secondary effect that can happen when you stay in a chastity cage for a long time, especially if it’s a small one. It’s up to you (and your keyholder) to decide whether you want to shrink it until you have a tiny clit with which your partner can play, making you look like the sissy you know you are, or if you want to keep your “manhood” intact.

 

About Male Chastity

Male Chastity involves the physical act of locking your penis in a cage and handing over control over your orgasms to a person that will hold the keys (A.K.A. keyholder). Whether you have someone in your life, as your wife or partner, who will choose when and how you will orgasm the next time, or you’re using a keyholding service that will keep that tiny key safe, male chastity is an incredible way to change your relationship with your sexuality and open yourself to more intense orgasms in the future. Here’s Everything You Need To Know About Male Chastity.

How to effectively avoid Chastity Shrinking: 3 tips.

If you’re looking to experience chastity without fear of losing inches on your precious organ, then stick to at least two of the three guidelines below, and you should not experience any chastity shrinkage:

1 – Chastity Cage Size

You will want to ensure that you choose a chastity cage that allows for plenty of room to grow and get erect. A full erection isn’t necessary (it would hardly be chastity if it were), but you want to be able to achieve roughly 70% or more of an erection in your cage. This will allow for enough blood flow to your penis to ensure it maintains its stature. Any smaller, and you will start to restrict the blood flow and can start to introduce shrinking. If you’re wondering if chastity is safe, learn that it is up to you to make it safe.

Here is where different cage sizes come into play. If you want to keep every inch you currently have, you should choose a cage with a standard size, such as The Vice™ Standard. Or, if what you have between your legs makes other men jealous, perhaps The Vice™ Plus is for you. Besides having the option of choosing the size you want, TheVice™ is the only inescapable chastity cage in the world.

2 – UNLOCKING PERIODS AND EXERCISE

Stay on a semi-regular unlock schedule. One or two weekly unlocks to “stretch the muscles” should be more than enough. This will keep your body pumping enough blood to the region to maintain a full erection and prevent any decline in size or blood flow to the area. Also, it’s an excellent moment to thoroughly clean the cage and your cock.

3 – GET HARD, STAY HARD

When unlocked, introduce more extended periods of foreplay, with plenty of tease and, denial, and edging. Edging and teasing a denied unlocked cock will cause it to swell to its maximum capacity, ensuring an abundance of blood flow, which can not only help maintain an erection but even help increase the size of your beloved friend! Of course, an orgasm at the end will be entirely up to your keyholder. If you want some inspiration, here you can read about Chastity Cage Play and how to get the most out of it.

Chastity Shrinking and Other Techniques to shrink your penis

So, you’ve decided to shrink your manhood to show outside how you feel inside. Fantastic decision, you’re going to love being teased when your keyholder starts to play with what will be left of your cock (or should we just call it clit?). From my experience, you can start your chastity penis-shrinking journey with whichever cage size you want; you don’t need to reduce sizes slowly.

Tiny Chastity Cages to shrink your penis

Depending on what your aim is, you could start with a Mini or Micro cage, just think how cute your tiny cock will look all squeezed into that confined space. If you want to go all the way, and I get that you would, get yourself a Clitty or go full sissy with this pink Sissy Pussy Cage.

Wear a chastity cage size that completely suppresses your erections for a couple of weeks, with very few unlocks. Remember that it’s a process, little by little you’ll start to notice that the cage that seemed so small, now even has some space left. Whichever your goal is, entering the chastity lifestyle shouldn’t be something to be scared of; learn a bit more about How to Choose the right Chastity Cage and listen to your body when it speaks to you.

Reversing Chastity Shrinkage

Our bodies have an incredible resilience and ability to adapt, and our cocks are made of a spongy tissue (corpus cavernosum) that expands and contracts depending on the amount of blood flowing through it. So it’s a bit like losing weight, you won’t lose your precious inches overnight, nor will you regain them the moment you unlock your cock. It depends on your actions and how you handle it; just know that shrinkage can be undone. The two main myths that I have encountered myself with are:

Is Chastity Shrinkage permanent?

no, chastity shrinking is not permanent. There are science-backed procedures of penile rehabilitation that give men their inches back even after severe medical procedures. So don’t worry; staying locked won’t make you lose anything permanently, and it will be relatively easy to regain the lost measure.

Does Chastity cause ED (Erectile Disfunction)?

“What if I can’t perform after being caged for so long?”. No, chastity can’t cause ED. Chastity may, in some cases, change how you can achieve and maintain an erection. However, this is typically more psychological than physical; you feel you’re a sissy, so why should a sissy have an erect penis? With time and stimulation, you will go back to your “virile state”. It’s simply your body readjusting and recalibrating.

Tips and methods to regain the lost size

If you are looking to recover lost ground, you can try:

Take a Temporary hiatus from Chastity

This will allow for more natural erections to occur and the regular volume of blood flow to restore to the penis (especially during nighttime erections). This will help expand the blood vessels and capillaries in the penis, bringing it back to its former glory.

Regular Masturbation (edging)

NOTE: not regular cumming, but regular masturbation. Whether it’s you or your partner/keyholder, masturbating with tease and denial regularly will help bring about many fantastic erections, which will further increase the blood flow to the region and restore lost size. Try this a few times a day, and you will start to see results in as little as a week or two.

Penis Pumps

Using a penis pump is the tried-and-true method for penile rehabilitation and enhancement. Use a pump once or twice daily to help restore blood to the region, expand vessels and capillaries, and increase the length and girth of your hearty meat member. Be sure to study the safety material of a penis pump because there is such a thing as overinflated, and that outcome is not desirable (Google at your own risk).

So it’s your choice! What will it be: locked dick or pretty clit?

    i seriously believe that i will never be able to influence this in life any more. Whatever the case, the decision OF THE FEMALE OWNERS REMAINS OVER me for life, including a possible hormone treatment, even if it is to be final and i am to be transformed into a woman. Of course, i also refrain from withdrawing this seriously honestly meant remark.,subtill or Sub_Till

    I’ve been locked over a year now with very few unlocks. Next week I start HRT. I will be in a negative cage soon. Can I make my clit stay ‘in’ permanently? My mistress/wife really wants it to be gone completely and guess I do too. Her goal for me is to only have sex with men from now on and she’s going to achieve it

      HRT (hormone replacement therapy) is approached from maintaining specific levels of both testosterone and estrogen in your body. The prescribed dosage is based on the individuals’ hormone levels, what hormones are being produced naturally by the body, and other elements that all work together in having a constant, long term exposure/suspension of the hormones responsibile for feminizing/masculinizing the body. It’s best looked by nonmedical persons as subjecting the body to a second puberty, only for the opposite gender than the first time.

    HRT shouldn’t even be on this blog like it’s some harmless thing you use to alter your body like a cosmetic. The side effects of HRT are pretty bad.

    Don’t do something that the you in 20 years will regret.

      Thank you for your comment! We completely agree that HRT should not be taken lightly. It is something that requires true desire and dedication to making serious, and often life-long changes to yourself, as well as an incredible amount of time researching HRT and speaking with the proper medical provider about it to find out if HRT is truly the right path for you.

        Yes, you will have to carefully consider if you want hrt, but if you do end up regretting it, it’s on you. (At least in my area) there’s a pamphlet of what hrt will and will not do, and then you have to be on hormones for a whole year before you can get bottom surgery. Not to mention hrt saves lives. Please stop listening to whatever right wing propaganda you’re listening to. You have no buisness in what other people decide to do to their bodies, I doubt you know what you’re talking about.

    Theoretically, shrinkage through surgery is possible, because in gender reassignment surgery they manage to preserve all the nerves and glans (which will later become a clitor), and urethra, even removing the corpora cavernosa. I believe that it is not done just for ethical reasons (which is hypocrisy, if the person has the right to make a gender reassignment, he would also have the right to reduce the penis). This surgical reduction will reduce the size of corpora cavernosa, preserving the remainder. Nothing is sexier and more humiliating than a penis that, even when erect, is still very small, where to masturbate it would be necessary to use two fingers. My wish would be to have a penis of a maximum of 2 inches when ERECT!

      It should be taken into consideration that for any mtf intending to go through ‘bottom surgery’ shrinkage is not a good thing . . . When the new entrance is being created, there is a depth of penetration that is desired. If there is not enough penile tissue to achieve this, then they will take skin grafts from elsewhere so that the depth necessary is achieved. . .
