1. What is a Chastity Cage?
Chastity cages are designed to prevent penetrative sex and masturbation. However, the extent to which they prevent orgasm depends on the person and the type of device used. For individuals who require concentrated stimulation to orgasm, Dick cage is more likely to prevent climax. On the other hand, many users can still orgasm by using a vibrator or through the small amount of movement allowed by ball-trap-style devices. Some people even report being able to achieve prostate orgasms. For more effective prevention of orgasm, a full belt may be necessary.
The benefits of Male chastity cages go beyond simply restricting sexual access—they can have profound effects on physical, emotional, and psychological levels. For some, it enhances self-control, strengthens relationships, or deepens power dynamics between partners.

2. Can I Wear My Chastity Device Through Airport Security?
Many airports are equipped with metal detectors and full-body scanners. A metal chastity cage will likely trigger metal detectors, which could result in being pulled aside for further inspection, potentially leading to a strip search and delaying your travel. Full-body scanners will detect both metal and plastic penis cages. While some users report passing through security with plastic cages, it’s worth noting that airport staff may still investigate if something unusual shows up. The most sensible thing to do is to take off your device before passing security and then put it back on immediately afterwards. Avoid using airport security for any kink-related thrills, as it involves non-consenting individuals, which is unethical. Most airports have restrooms on both sides of security for your convenience.
3. Does Cockcage Prevent Erections?
In general, penis cages do not prevent erections entirely. Most people wearing chastity devices will still experience nocturnal erections or occasional arousal. Some users with tiny chastity cages (like narrower designs) have reported limited erections, but this varies by individual. The cage may restrict full engorgement of the penis, but it won’t stop the body from attempting to become erect. It’s important to choose a well-fitted cage to avoid discomfort during such occurrences, especially at night when erections are more common.

4. Will Putting on a Penis Cage Cause My Dick to Shrink?
No, a penis cage does not cause permanent shrinkage. The penis is not a muscle, so it doesn’t undergo muscular atrophy when not in use. Compression from wearing a dick cage might temporarily push fluid out of the tissues, which could cause the penis to appear smaller. However, once the device is removed, the penis returns to its usual size, typically within 24 hours and after a couple of erections. It’s also important to note that “penile atrophy,” which is a serious medical condition, is not caused by chastity cages but by other health and lifestyle factors. For a detailed explanation, check out here.
5. How Long Can I Wear a Penis cage with a Urethral Sound or Catheter?
Chastity devices that include a urethral sound or catheter are generally not intended for long-term wear due to the increased risk of infection and urethral damage. Most people report discomfort or irritation after a few hours of wear, and the risk of bacteria entering the urethra is high. If you’re interested in longer-term wear involving a catheter, consider consulting the sounding community for more specific advice on hygiene and safety. Proper sterilization techniques and using medical-grade silicone or plastic catheters are essential for minimizing health risks.
6. Is it Difficult to Put on a Chastity Device?
- Putting on a penis cage can be challenging at first, but it gets easier with the right steps. Start by grooming properly and using lubricant to prevent discomfort. Slide the back ring over your shaft and testicles, then carefully guide your flaccid penis into the cage. Ensure the alignment is correct to avoid pinching. For extra help, techniques like the stocking method can make the process smoother.

7. Is Cockcage Safe?
Chastity play, like any form of BDSM, carries some risks. While many people safely enjoy it, there are documented instances of temporary or even permanent injuries. It’s crucial to be mindful of proper sizing and fitting when using a device to avoid unnecessary discomfort or injury. For more detailed information on potential risks, you can refer to insights from urologists in these resources:
While injuries are rare, they are still possible. It’s essential to research thoroughly and assess whether you’re comfortable with the risks.
8. Is a larger chastity cage length better?
A common mistake is choosing a cage that’s too large, thinking there should be room for growth. This often leads to painful arousal, difficulty sleeping, messy urination, and poor concealment. Most manufacturers recommend measuring your flaccid length and subtracting half an inch to find the right size. At CageChastity, we suggest subtracting an additional quarter inch beyond the recommended half inch, as we find that slightly smaller devices tend to work best.

9. Do Chastity Cages Cause Erectile Dysfunction (ED)?
No, assuming your chastity cage is well-fitted and hasn’t caused any injuries, chastity will not cause ED. In fact, many people report experiencing stronger orgasms after a period of lockup. However, a few long-term users have reported minor issues with ED upon release, but these cases are extremely rare and may be related to other factors like age or health conditions.

10. How Do I Make My Penis Cage More Secure?
Most ball-trap-style chastity devices can be escaped with enough effort, especially with the use of water, lube, or patience. If security is a priority, consider a custom-fitted belt or a genital piercing to secure the device. Other than these, relying on willpower and the honor system is key. Even with a well-designed cockcage, the pliable nature of the penis makes it possible to remove oneself in some situations.
11. Can I Remain Locked While Swimming or Showering?
Yes, most chastity cages made from materials like steel, nylon, and silicone are safe for water exposure, making them suitable for swimming or showering. Brass barrel locks, commonly used in penis cages, are also generally water-resistant, but they can tarnish over time. If you notice black tarnish or signs of weakening, simply clean and polish the lock to prevent any issues.
12. How Do I Find a Keyholder?
There are multiple ways to find a keyholder. The quickest route is hiring a professional dominatrix (pro-Domme) who offers this service. Many people, however, find keyholders in their personal relationships, just like you would meet a partner in any traditional dating setting. Attending kink events, such as munches and clubs, might help you meet individuals more familiar with chastity play. However, the most important advice is to be upfront about your kinks early in a relationship to ensure compatibility.
13. How to Put on a Fufu Clip?
Putting on a chastity fufu clip is straightforward. First, push your penis back into your pelvis, similar to how you would when wearing a flat chastity cage. Then, position the clip over your penis and gently pull the scrotum skin through the hole in the center of the clip.
If you’re using the Lite version, you’re done! Simply adjust the skin that’s passed through the hole to create a visually appealing pair of labia.
For the full version, there’s an additional ring. Pull all of the scrotum skin through the first ring, then push it back through the second. It’s a bit tricky to explain in words, so be sure to check out the graphics on this page or watch the tutorial video by Boundlesss on Reddit to see the process in action.
14. Can Chastity Cages Increase My Risk of Prostate Cancer?
Currently, there is no evidence to suggest that wearing a dick cage increases the risk of prostate cancer. Two research studies conducted in 2006 and 2016 indicate that men who ejaculate frequently may have a slightly reduced risk of low-grade prostate cancers. However, no direct link between ejaculation frequency and cancer risk has been established. The relationship could be influenced by other lifestyle or genetic factors. For now, there is no conclusive evidence to offer specific advice on how ejaculation frequency impacts cancer risk.
15. Help! I’ve Lost My Key and Can’t Unlock My Dick Cage
If you’ve accidentally locked yourself in a dick cage in and lost the key, don’t panic—there are solutions! Here are some methods to help:
- Use a Solvent: If you’ve glued the lock shut trying to remove a broken key, use a solvent like acetone to dissolve the glue. Afterward, you can either pick the lock or use an alternative key from a similar lock (as they’re often compatible).
- Drill Out the Lock: If the lock is stuck due to a broken key, carefully drill through the center of the lock using a rotary tool or drill with a steel bit. Once the lock is removed, you can replace it with a new one.
- Cut the Pins or Lock Housing: If you’re willing to sacrifice the cage, place a protective material over your skin (like denim) and use a rotary tool or hacksaw to cut through the pins or lock housing.
- Go to the ER: If you’re uncomfortable attempting these methods on your own, consider visiting the ER. Medical professionals are trained to deal with such situations and can safely remove the device.
