Even though the name suggests otherwise, cock rings belong to a group of sex toys that will bring satisfaction to both men and women.
In simple terms, they are designed made to restrict blood to the shaft of the penis. This helps in maintaining a stronger erection and brings more sensitivity to the tip. Which means more time to enjoy the wonders of sex on both sides of the bed.
Now, if you don't know where to start, don’t worry as I did a little bit of research and found some of the best cock rings out there we review them later on. But first, a little background information...
TOP PICK! 
If you're looking for the best cock ring out there, for me, it's the Lelo Tor 2: Luxury Rechargeable Cock Ring. As well as boosting the erection the vibrating can boost your partners (and your pleasure to) to a new level.
What Does A Cock Ring Do?
The cock ring, in its regular, basic form is a simple round band that gently wraps around the base of the cock, with just enough pressure to fulfill its main goal - to trap blood in the penis. This can give a bigger erection that'll last longer. It has such a strong effect on the erection that the rings can even be used to treat erectile dysfunction.
Cock rings are available in all different shapes and from different materials - rubber, silicone, plastic, even metal or leather! This easy-to-use sex tool will also help in delaying ejaculation, giving you more time to appreciate all the wonders that come with sex.
As a bonus this way of erection regulation can also bring more sensitivity to the cock resulting in more powerful orgasms for men.
Types Of Cock Ring
Before choosing the one that's just right for you, you might want to learn more about what's available. Here are some of the most popular rings on the market.
Silicone
Silicone cock rings are the most common and very popular among men. They're stretchy and easy to use. They'll also adjust to your penis as your erection grows, so they're very safe and beginner friendly.
Adjustable
An adjustable cock ring is also a great toy for beginners as you can adjust the pressure and control the size of a loop which means you can get used to the sensation of constriction. (Which can feel a little odd at first) If you're new to this, this might be the one for you.
Vibrating
Vibrating cock rings are for those who as well as want to keep their erection standing too attention. And also want to spice it up with the added sensation of a vibrator. But that doesn't mean your partner gets all the fun. It can also help men achieve strong orgasms by shaking their cock's shaft down to the prostate.
Rings for couples
Cock rings can bring pleasure to both partners, and there are some rings that are specifically designed for couples, for example, a ring that vibrates and has rabbit ears is a great toy to bring pleasure to both partners. (A perfect valentines gift if you ask me...)
Metal rings
This type of ring is usually the first choice for those men who are already familiar with sex toys and all the wonders of using them.
Due to the material this ring is made from, there's no flexibility and this ring will firmly grasp the cock, giving you the maximum amount of pressure.
How To Choose The Right Cock Ring?
Now, here's the important bit…
When thinking about what's the best type of ring for you, you have to think about several different things.
First, think about ‘stretchability’ (I think it's a word…) and decide if you want to try something which is adjustable and soft or something that has the maximum grip you can find. Choosing the right material will probably bring the right tightness for your liking.
Texture can also be very important - If the ring has some bumps or nubs, this can increase your pleasure.
And of course don't forget about those vibrate rings. If you're looking to maximize your erection you might as well get some vibration with it.
Well, I hope you learnt something new, and if you didn't, no worries as it's now time for the reviews…
How To Use A Cock Ring
1. Choose the right type for you.
Simple silicone rings are best for beginners.
2. Use Lube
A couple drops should be more than enough. You'll thank yourself later.
3. Place Cock Ring On Flaccid Or Semi Erect Penis. SLOWLY.
No sudden jerky movements. And please don't force it onto an already erect penis!
4. Avoid wearing it for TOO long
Avoid wearing it for more than 20 minutes.
