Everything You Need to Know About Finding the Perfect Size Dildo

The most common problem faced while purchasing a dildo online is deciding which is the perfect size dildo. Choosing the right size dildo may be intimidating, especially for first-time users. So if you’re new to the sex toy world, here’s what you need to know to get the perfect size dildo.

How to Know the Best Dildo Size for You?

Measure the Insertable Length

When it comes to measuring the length of a dildo, there are two lengths that you should be aware of — the total length of the dildo and the insertable length. Just because the website states the product as 10-inch dildo, it does not mean that it will be the insertable length as this will be the total length from the tip to the base, including the balls or suction cup. Research extensively to know the actual insertable length of the dildo as it's more important than the total dildo length. Most women prefer the average penis length for their dildos — 5.1 to 5.6 inches (14.22 cm).

Measure the Girth and Width

For most people, the girth of the dildo affects their pleasure more than the length. Most manufacturers state the width of the dildo in the description than its girth. The width of the dildo is its diameter, and the girth is its circumference. A dildo’s girth is directly related to its width, as the wider the dildo, the greater will be the circumference.

Before choosing a dildo, keep in mind that an average penis width is 1.5 inches (3.81 cm). While most dildos are larger than this size, you should always buy something that you'll be comfortable using. To measure what type size girth will be suitable, you can use your fingers for reference. See how many fingers you like inside you, and then measure their circumference to know what feels the best. This personalized measurement will help you decide the girth of your dildo.

Read Reviews Before Purchasing

Sex toy reviews can be an excellent source of information to help understand if there are any variations in the measurements than those stated on the website. Some reviewers also post pictures from different angles to help you better analyze how the actual product looks. You can read the user experiences and know about any unpleasant experiences of people who purchased that product.

Several sex toy reviewers post their opinions of various sex toys online. So if you can’t find any reviews on the website, these reviews can be helpful.

What Dildo Size Should I Get If I Have Little-to-no Experience with Penetration?

Beginners or people with no penetration experience should start with dildos of one-inch width. Those who are more cautious can start with 0.75-inches for a more comfortable experience. Starting with smaller measurements helps you get comfortable with your body until you understand what works best for you. Once you're used to the penetration, you can choose a quarter-inch wider dildo than your current one. This way, you enjoy a nice, challenging stretch for your utmost pleasure.
