Month 10. I unlocked my lower abdomen !

.Something new happened. For background, I’ve been at this consistently for 9 or 10 months. No orgasms, wet or dry. Earlier this week, I had a session using my eupho trident. For the first 20-30 minutes, it was a regular session, nice ,but nothing special. Then, Out of nowhere, the area between my belly button and pubic hair started contracting on its own. Very Strongly. My lower abdomen has never contracted before?!…..Is it happening :D? I can’t remember exactly where, but other areas of my body followed suit (I believe my left thigh, my arms [but not my forearms]). I was overwhelmed with pleasure so I couldn’t keep track. I don’t think I would have been able to think about anything else if i wanted to. I had thought my prostate and butt would join in, but they kept doing their own thing, making pleasant, but fairly mild sensations.

This unfortunately only lasted between 25-45 seconds. The disappearance might have been related to me lowering my left leg (I was on my back, legs raised, feet flat on bed) . Along with the strong contractions , there had been a small weird feeling around where my left thigh meets my torso. It didn’t hurt, but it didn’t feel good. A tiny bit distracting. So I thought lowering my leg might make the tiny ball go away. Not sure if that worked immediately (again, I am overwhelmed) , but around 5- 10 seconds later both the weird small ball sensation and the strong contractions stopped happening.

Lube amount and reapplication? (Discuss)

I have a lube shooter myself. When I apply lube I have usually inserted what I feel is almost a reservoir up my butt (I’ll also lube the toy up as well). I reapplied every 30-45 minutes. A bit graphic, but after the session, I would have to visit the toilet at least 3 times to release the remaining lube. Recently, since I am kinda low on lube, I didn’t put as much lube up my butt and the end result is that I didn’t have any discomfort from the toy. Granted, I haven’t had any kind of orgasm from prostate play, but the session was one of my better ones. Is there a thing as too much lube? If so, could that inhibit the success of a session? Have I been throwing my money down the toilet from using too much lube? How much lube do you guys use and is there a general time or a feeling you get inside that calls for relubing?

Reached a Plateau again..

Month 7 . I’ve continued my sessions and got some progress, but I’m still not there. I don’t think I’ve had p-waves; I haven’t had strong ones anyway

Progress: I feel that I have awakened my butt (Pc already awake). I sometimes get radiating sensations around anus when I have a session or when I try kegels . At times the pleasure starts extending up the area underneath my pubic area. But I haven’t had any overwhelming pleasure. Haven’t visited cloud 9. I have involuntaries of varying pleasure (could be as low as no pleasure). I also have what I’ll call second nature contractions . I kind of just think of a contraction pattern and my body does it in pretty much the same way that involuntaries happen. I don’t really have any conscious effort being put into the contraction. Both of these at least start off on the gentler and short side and change intensity on their own;

Not exactly progress, but my legs sometimes shake more frequently when I am on my back with my legs spread, feet flat on the bed.

What I have done differently: I practice what I believe are kegels and reverse kegels. I am not sure I am doing them correctly, but…I got a new toy:the eupho trident. For now, it is my favorite toy since its use coincided with my butt awakening. I like the way it’s p-tab naturally rests on my perineum/taint. I feel I have to manipulate my helix trident to do the same.

Which model should I get?

I have the helix trident and progasm. I haven’t had much success over 6 months of practice (let’s say 1.2 sessions per week avg.) I am thinking of taking the plunge and getting a new model, since there is a sale going on. I was thinking about getting the eupho or eupho syn. I don’t know how the silicone would impact the toy specifically so any input on that would be appreciated. Would it dull the sensations too much to what I hear is already a more subtle model? Input on other models is good, too, though I am not interested in the vice.

Which toy, if you can point it out, awoke your prostate? The first to give you p-waves? First to orgasm? The models are built differently, so maybe there is a vague consensus on which aneros models are more prone to doing this. This question is geared towards people who awoke their prostates through aneros. Any other experiences are welcome,too

I don’t understand contractions

As title says, I have my questions. I’ve looked at the wiki, but I still am unsure about things.

I kinda think we contract our anal sphincters partly to keep the aneros in place, right? Similarly, you use one hand to keep a pickle jar from moving while you use your other hand to move the lid. To help communicate my thoughts on pc, Here is a [picture](https://imgur.com/4T2lpbI). Both green and purple refer to possible pc muscle movement. To me the contractions feel like you are trying to push your perineum out of myself vs pulling it closer to the center of my body. Which way are you supposed to do it? Are you pushing your body towards the aneros or pushing the aneros towards you? I would just test it, but 1. Both movements have helped brought at least minute pleasure and 2.) Over the last couple months, I have regressed on my ability to reach pleasure.

One issue I have with pc muscles is I am not 100% sure what that means. I can look up the pubococcygeus muscle. I know it helps stop urine flow, but for me at least, I am having trouble identifying it anyway. When I put my finger on my perineum, I can feel muscles move when I try to contract it. How close to your penis and balls can you feel your perineum move?

Also, I have had more success with the rolling contraction technique (anal to pc) than where you hold the two together and release abruptly. How does the second technique work?
