Why Sterilization Matters With Urethral Play
How To Clean Your Urethral Rods
Here’s a guide to keeping your urethral rods, whether they’re silicone-sounding tools, penis plugs, or any urethra toy, squeaky clean.
-
Rinse and Repeat – Rinse your urethral plug under warm water to remove any visible residues.
-
Soap It Up – Use mild, antibacterial soap to lather up your toy. Your goal here is to eliminate all those pesky germs that love to crash the party uninvited.
-
Brush the Nooks – Got a brush? Use it to gently clean the ins and outs of your urethra plug. Those intricate designs aren't just for show; they need attention too!
-
Rinse Again – After soaping, rinse thoroughly. I mean it, none of that quick splash-and-dash. Leftover soap can cause irritation.
-
Dry It Out – Pat your toy dry with a clean towel. Damp is not a vibe we're going for – unless we're talking about other activities.
-
Store It Safe – Once dry, store your penis plug in a cool, dry place. Proper storage is the key to maintaining its condition.
How To Sterilize Urethral Toys
-
Select Your Sterilizing Agent – Use warm water or antiseptic solution - all work. Before sterilizing, wash your urethral sound or silicone penis plug with mild soap and water.
-
Wash First – Wash your penis plug with soap and water. This removes any initial dirt and makes the sterilization process more effective.
-
Boil It Up – If it's a silicone sounding rod, you can boil it. Submerge it fully in boiling water for about 5 to 10 minutes. Use a pair of tongs to carefully remove it—no burns, please!
-
Bleach Solution Soak – If boiling isn't your jam, mix a 10% bleach solution (1 part bleach to 9 parts water), and let your silicone sound take a dip for about 5 minutes. Rinse thoroughly afterward with water to remove any bleach residue.
-
Medical-Grade Solutions – For those who want to take it up a notch, use a medical-grade solution following the manufacturer's instructions. These are designed for surgical instruments, so they mean business.
-
Dry Thoroughly – After sterilization, place your toy on a clean, lint-free cloth and let it air dry completely. Moisture is not your friend here.
-
Storage – Once dry, store your silicone urethral sounds in a clean, dry place. A dedicated storage case or bag is perfect to keep them safe until next time.
